5 Most Hated Female Villains In K-Drama: Han So Hee, Kim Ji Won, More!
Besides the relatable protagonist, a K-Drama is even more iconic with an infuriatingly effective and unpredictable antagonist.
Here are five amazing K-Drama villains that kept viewers on their toes for the past decade! Read on to know more!
Cha Soo Hyang ('Who Are You: School 2015')
Perhaps the most hated villain of all time is Kang So Young, played by Cha Soo Hyang, in the coming of age drama "Who Are You: School 2015" starring Kim So Hyun and Nam Joo Hyuk.
She is one of the school bullies who used extreme violence against her victim. In the drama, she abused Lee Eun Bi, played by Kim So Hyun, just for the fun of it.
What's worse is that she frames her for school violence despite being the victim of it. Up until this writing, K-Drama fans still haven't recovered from her.
Jo Woo Ri ('Gangnam Beauty')
Hyun Soo Ah, played by Jo Woo Ri, is the popular trope of a mean girl. Because of her innate beauty and appeal, no one suspects her rough attitude.

Many viewers hated her as her kind can be seen in real life, too. She's two-faced and manipulative, and she will definitely do everything she can to attain something she wants.
Kim Hye Yoon ('Sky Castle')
Kim Hye Yoon's Kang Ye Seo role in "Sky Castle" is another K-Drama villain that people hated due to how realistic she is.

Because of her ambitious personality, she becomes extremely selfish and manipulative. Like Hyun Soo Ah, she will also do everything-even the most depraved things-to get what she desires.

Kim Ji Won ('The Heirs')
Arrogant and bratty, Kim Ji Won's acting role in "The Heirs" brought her a solid fan base, and at the same time, haters.
Rachel Yoo is the Kim Tan's, played by Lee Min Ho, fiancee and the prettiest girl in Jeguk High school. She is one of the people who antagonized Cha Eung Sang, played by Park Shin Hye, after Kim Tan dumped her for the former.

Although the gravity of her actions isn't as bad as the others, she's still one of the most hated characters in K-Drama history.
Han So Hee ('The World of the Married')
Before she became everyone's favorite Nabi, Han So Hee was one of the most detested characters in the Hallyu scene for her role in "The World of the Married."
Yeo Da Kyung is a spoiled brat who wrecked a married couple's home. She continued having an affair with her doctor's husband for two years without showing any remorse.
