One of the key aspects to the enjoyability of Korean dramas is the fact that they are short, bite-sized stories told in a beautifully engaging fashion. They're usually 16 to 20 episodes long, which is just perfect to be able to invest in a narrative without getting too attached. However, sometimes, within these 16 episodes, Korean dramas feature some of the biggest and most unthinkable plot twists, effectively changing the entire perspective of the viewer. Here are our top 10 K-Dramas with the biggest plot twists....More
