Hello! I've been having a little break from watching JDoramas because I've been busy with army and other personal reasons. Anyway, now I have plenty of time again, and I would need some recommendations. I'd love to watch a more serious/dark drama. The last such drama I watched was Unfair and I gotta admit, I loved every bit of it. Could anyone recommend something similiar to Unfair?

maybe you can check this out too:

Suna no Utsuwa

Yup. Finished watching SMILE. 8/10. Heartbreaking and yet sweet. I had thought there's no good love story in 2009. Thanks for the recommending SMILE. I hereby recommend it to those who haven't watched it.

I'd put Unfair at the top of that list, name it, it's got everything but humor, Hero is also highly recommended!

Couple shots from Unfair, it's never far from my DVD player!
