Song Joong Ki is back to romance, and fans couldn’t be more excited! After years of intense roles as gangsters, mafias, and mysterious figures, the actor is finally stepping into a lighthearted rom-com with My Youth. Starring opposite the versatile Chun Woo Hee, this drama is set to bring a refreshing spark to the 2025 K-drama lineup.

While K-drama leads often operate within the confines of clearly defined moral boundaries—heroes as lovers, saviors, protectors, and caretakers—villains are afforded far greater freedom. Over the years, there has also been a rise in the anti-hero characters who dwell in moral grey zones, more layered and intriguingly written, straddling the line between protagonist and antagonist. Here, we list six iconic villains who embody this unique, unforgettable energy.
