When Baek Ah-Jin (Kim You-Jung) was little, she endured domestic violence. To survive, she learned to hide her emotions and manipulate others by seeing into their hearts.

With her beautiful appearance and her mastered talents, she is now a top actress. She has Yoon Jun-Seo (Kim Young-Dae), who has been by her side all of her life and he is willing to do anything for her. He is the only one who she can rely and feel comfortable with, but, for Baek Ah-Jin, he decides to bring about her downfall.

Meanwhile, Kim Jae-Oh (Kim Do-Hoon) is also a man who has been by Baek Ah-Jin’s side his whole life. He suffered abuse from his father and felt a connection with Baek Ah-Jin. Through her, he found a reason to live. Le-Na (Lee Yul-Eum) is a top actress, who is a former idol. She has feelings for Yoon Jun-Seo.

Sindi Mar 12 2026 8:27 am Totally very thrilling and nice drama but don’t know why everything goes only as Beak Ah Jin wishes ..

P Mar 06 2026 7:07 pm Reply @Kdrama

Spoiler alert!!

I think Junseo couldnt love Ahjin the way In gang loved her is because they grew up together and he saw how broken and messed up Ahjin is. Not only Ahjin but he is too. They are both poor children who had to endure their abusive and good-for-nothing parents and it definitely affected their lives negatively as they grow older. So fair to say that this is why he always has this thought that Ahjin is capable of doing such horrible things because he's seen it all. But even with all his doubts and fears towards Ahjin, he still loves her. They are just so toxic for each other because they know and suffered together each other's trauma. On the other hand, Ahjin always wear her mask whenever she is with Ingang so Ingang thought she was this perfect, kindhearted girl. She managed to make him fall for her facade. But once Ahjin revealed her true self to Ingang, he couldnt handle her and just committed suicide right there and then.

I do believe Ahjin really developed affection, if not totally love, for grandma and ingang but she was blaming herself for the death of grandma that is why she tried to hurt ingang and break up with him and get away from him because she couldnt dare to continue to stay with him because the guilt was eating her. She just continued to be bad and crazy because when she tried to make it right, everything went wrong. She doesnt want to be weak and vulnerable again so she had to let go of her feelings for Ingang. But she didnt expect Ingang will kill himself. She just so fckn broken, there is no salvation. Junseo thought he could save her so he made the ultimate decision to expose her wrongdoings, and try to commit double suicide which i think is kinda dumb but i think he just didnt know what else to do to stop her. But no one, even him, ingang, jae oh and the kindhearted part time job boss, couldve possibly save her. i really feel sorry for her. Ahjin and junseo's end was destined to be tragic from the beginning.

I love this drama coz it strayed away from the cliche ones that you always have character development at the end. Here, they all stayed toxic and unredeemable up until the very last episode. Which sometimes is the scenario in real life. Life is never always gonna be perfect and easy for all even if you tried so hard. Sometimes, evil wins. I hope they wont make a season 2 and make Ahjin change for the better. This is already good as it is.

coffee Jan 24 2026 9:31 am just finished this series and it's such a fascinating watch. Kim You Jung really outdid herself in this series, wayyyy mature than the others that she starred in. such a versatile young actress. as for the whole series, it was captivating. i was able to finish this quick because i can't wait to know what happens next. it's true what the other comments say that the male leads have such pathetic characters but it didn't really bother me. that's the character they need to portray and i think they nailed it. this series shows how psychopaths think and how they are wired. it's such a refreshing drama because the villain is the lead and honestly while watching, i wasn't sure if it is right to root for her but I did haha. i highly recommend this

king julien Jan 15 2026 4:34 pm junseo couldve been the greatest if they had written his character well

SHENANIGANS Jan 06 2026 5:18 pm I think I will finish it, but I'm at ep 7 and I just don't understand Ah-Jin's motivations at all. It's weird, in the first episodes you get it she's a psycho and will get back to you x1000 if something goes against her. But at some point it's just overdone and feels like poor writting. Like it's not psycho anymore it's just being retarded, no one acts like that.

Kad Jan 06 2026 2:42 pm while it is hard to argue abut how pretty the character Baek Ah jin is and her using that for personal gain, she struck out at people mostly to defend herself. The chacter of Park Ji yoon in "the Glory" was the real psychopath who struck out at people for her own pleasure and was more viscious. Both are beautiful with my nod going to You jung, hojwever i feel the the acting goes to Ji yeon. Anyone agree?

Meowster Dec 25 2025 12:42 am They made the all the guys too pathetic. This drama was extremely frustrating with evil winning at every turn.

Nana Dec 23 2025 4:59 pm I know how much I love strong female leads....baek ahjin did sooooo well in this drama❤️

Gnet Dec 22 2025 10:16 am I like Kim You Jung since Dong Yi, a good actress. She has to take care of herself, she is too thin…

Gabby Dec 20 2025 4:57 pm All the actors delivered their roles excellently but this movie was a whack . It was so captivating for nothing

Baek Ah Jin real Dec 16 2025 12:35 am Thriller but actually more drama than thriller in it

Sky Dec 11 2025 12:49 pm Lol everyone here who hates the character and ending are actually funny. This is a great series to show that what a real psychopath is. The director did a great job with the ending to show its a proof that she’s a real psychopath.

daintyoojung Dec 10 2025 8:29 am @jichangwerks ahjin is a sociopath

gongijeu Dec 08 2025 12:47 am yoojung's acting ∞/10 other casts 10/10 cinematography 10/10 sound 10/10 directing 10/10 plot 9.5/10 (-0.5 bcs jaeoh's death was unnecessary)

i hope yoojung can win a major award for her role in this drama. she is so amazing in here.

sf Dec 07 2025 11:30 am I hope there will never be a season two. Yoon Jun-Seo and Kim Jae-Oh, two characters who were very frustrating. Two stupid men who helped a demon do what she wanted. But, I must say Kim You-Jung played her character very well, which is why she can be an actress with many awards in 2025. The ending was the same, frustrating.

Kimothy Dec 07 2025 2:50 am Not one likable character in the entire show. Jun-seo is a simp, but Jae-oh is a super simp. I can't stand Jae-oh, one of the most off-putting characters I've ever seen in K-drama, he has no other identity except being subservient to Ah-jin.

Ria Dec 07 2025 1:44 am I think hwang in youp is one of the lead. His name should placed in the top alongside the lead actors. His role gave impact especially for the female lead storyline

SL Dec 06 2025 1:46 pm It’s true what they say… evil doesn’t die

Jamse Dec 05 2025 12:43 am This was a tense, well acted drama. It went over the top in the last two episodes, but it does seem to set up the chance for a sequel.

Jung Ah Jung Dec 04 2025 11:32 pm SPOILER?! If you didn't like it, that's your problem. Yoon Jun Seo going out like he did seems appropriate. I thought Le Na and him made a good couple, but he was too busy just kind of lingering. Did he think it was his place to administer justice? I don't feel bad for him at all. Baek Ah Jin, Le Na, and Kim Jae Oh are the ones I really liked. Ah Jin's dad was the biggest POS in this whole drama. Moon Do Hyuk wasn't much better. It was fine to end it like they did. We're left with some unknowns, but it wasn't so terrible for Ah Jin. That's something I was worried about.

loveriwoo Dec 04 2025 8:58 pm so bad... it attempted a psycho revenge style drama but the writer wrote the script with their foot

Anonymous Dec 04 2025 3:55 pm This drama is just amazing But not everyone can appreciate it

What is that Dec 04 2025 2:34 pm What the ending?! I was amazed to Jilly’s comment since it looks she left this comment after ep10, until this drama was Ok but the ending is omg what’s happened and how about Ah Jin? Don’t understand

Abigail Dec 01 2025 10:44 pm if you want confusion, then please just watch this one because I still do not know what’s going on and I’m so confused. I’m so so so confused like out of this world confused

Jilly Dec 01 2025 6:55 pm Awful drama. Don’t waste your time.

Mumma Bear Nov 24 2025 1:46 am It's a great drama but so painful to watch. I have to pause after 10-15 minutes. Slowly but surely.

Hm Nov 22 2025 11:37 pm SPOILER!!

Okay i get why she has to kill her father. But the grandma?? I thought that she would be smart but shes dumb af. Why give out the door code if u just hide the diary in plain sight? Could u just give out reasons how u found the diary etc at temple or outside of then home but forgot about it? Why u have to kill grandma??? I was rooting for you but now, i just hope youll get ur downfall because ure stupid af

Ja Nov 22 2025 9:29 am I don't get why she framed her boss. He was trying to help, he was concern. I hate her for that.

sf Nov 21 2025 1:22 pm There was an American movie, "Natural Born Killers," now that way Ah-Jin is.

Kdrama Nov 21 2025 12:52 pm Ah jin said she told grandma the truth for the first time in her life. It meant Ah Jin sincerely loved In Gang and his Grandma. This fact stung my heart a bit. Love really could make a difference, even on a sociopath like her. It's a pity Jun Seo never managed to love Ah jin sincerely the way In Gang did bcs he always has prejudice about Ah Jin.

Gb Nov 21 2025 8:32 am So there is this moon do hyuk character plot twist. I wonder who this moon do hyuk here.

Lane Nov 21 2025 2:32 am People in the comments got her all wrong. Yeah, she is evil, but it was because nobody ever showed her that they truly love her. She was about to change because of the grandmother. A woman who said, you are still my child. Just like my child, I have to punish you. That is when she felt hope for the first time. When grandmother fell right in front of her, she became hard again. She told her grandson what happened and broke up with him. She's never killed anyone. In her mind, only the strong survive. Watch, guaranteed at the end you will see her break down finally, cry and realize that she was loved by her brother who will have to punish her for her own good.

AMAN Nov 20 2025 1:46 pm at first i did sympathies with Baek Ah-Jin character because of her situation with her father & other circumstances.. i somehow supported her but now she is just being too manipulative specially with Yoon Jun-Seo. she's using him since childhood because deep down he feels guilty towards her because of his mother..now she's being over ambitious & greedy. she just want to become untouchable & for that she's using Yoon Jun-Seo & Kim Jae-Oh but i feel her ending will not be as happy as she dream of because she has hurt many innocent people like Choi Jung-Ho in the past & that will definitely come back at her..

unknown Nov 20 2025 7:12 am I don’t think this kdrama is about revenge. It is about a clear pattern of behavior that matches what decades of research describe as callous-unemotional and antisocial traits.

Studies from places like Harvard, and King’s College London, and the American Psychological Association show that some people grow up with a very low capacity for empathy, guilt, or healthy emotional connection.

These traits often appear early in childhood and don’t just come from “a toxic family”. Many researchers point out that there’s a strong genetic and neurobiological component.

So for everyone trying to say that the FL is just this way because of her family, no, it is not.

Ahjin has a long pattern of manipulation, lying, and emotional harm , this is exactly the type of behavior described in clinical research on antisocial and callous-unemotional tendencies.

The drama is perfect!

Some people can‘t be fixes, they only can be exposed.

Ddeokbokkisan Nov 18 2025 8:02 pm You Jung is getting beat up too much, can't take much more. Need the revenge to start!

Emuhlye Nov 17 2025 11:47 pm I’m only on episode 3 so far but I’m failing to see how she’s a bad person. Based off circumstances shown I support her decisions and lack of restraint. Shes smart in her vengeance and I approve

Ella Nov 17 2025 9:20 am DearX isn’t just a drama — it’s a psychological tornado built on trauma, denial, and the craving to be understood.

Every character is flawed, every relationship is complicated, and every episode leaves you with more questions than answers. It’s frustrating, addictive, and beautifully written

anna Nov 16 2025 4:09 am dear x is such a good drama damn, i needed something like this!!!

Seo Nov 16 2025 4:07 am dear x is really insane… yoojung is insane… she needs to win awards for this like i cant imagine anyone else pulling off this kind of character

Co Nov 15 2025 5:18 pm So hard to watch. Don't recommend. 1/10 is the score I'm giving it.

I Nov 15 2025 3:11 pm Kim You-Jung is Gorgeous omg I am stopping every time when she appears How beautiful she is !!! watching because of her. But this drama also very interesting to watch, will not be bored every scene every seconds, can’t wait next episodes

Lauren Nov 14 2025 8:13 pm I Love This So Much!!!! Didn't read the webtoon, but I have a feeling this will end really bad. Like it will be worse than we expect it to be. Also, I really don't get the comments. In the first 10 secs of the 1st ep it says clearly that A-jin has antisocial personality disorder. So she does NOT feel emotions, even when she smiles or cries, she just mimics the emotion she learned by looking at other people. That's what sociopaths do, they manipulate people for their own gain. I'll not be surprised if she kills one way or the other all the people around her.

Janette O'Byrne Nov 14 2025 8:04 pm KYJ truly awesome here! She deserves an award. Finally she graduated from the last so so dramas! She truly showcased her potential. The way she portrayed BAJ is superb. Viewers can find themselves somehow understand why she is the way she is and still sympathise with her. She is not inherently nasty. And she sees the truth in people, use them they way they want to be used. You wonder why she have she is always on the edge? Everyone in her life has abused her one way or another from her parents, the agent ... she learnt at a very young age that nothing comes for free. If you compare her with Lena. To me, Lena is just so unlikeable. I have always rooted for KYJ. Her face just lits up the camera, she has a megawatt smile. Her chemistry with KYD is really good, finally! You can sense the bond and the complex feelings the two main characters have. KYJ ... you go girl!!!

Nadine Nov 14 2025 7:51 pm This series left me speeches. Everything about the psychiatric disorder Ah-Jin has is so spot on, and the actress does such a great job playing the character. As a clinical psychologists I'm in awe. Everything about this series is so interesting and so tastefully made. This might top everything this year for me. I applaud all actors playing, they are all perfect for each role. Can't wait for the rest of the episodes.

sf Nov 14 2025 3:29 pm A-jin is truly mentally sick. The young actor will be the next A-jin's collateral victim.

lolwat Nov 14 2025 4:33 am is it me or AhJin, the highschool bully and the celebrity bully looks like older Danielle, Haerin and Hyein from new jeans lol

jojothemighty Nov 12 2025 6:24 am baeksang award for this drama and best actress KYJ

so many people past rubbish. talk to much bla bla bla

Chloe Nov 12 2025 6:03 am I’m in awe of Kim Young-Dae’s performance here - he just keeps getting better and better! I really hope to see him in a cool smart movie soon, maybe even alongside Kim Go-Eun, that would be incredible.

As for Dear X, the whole story is heartbreaking. It’s so sad to see how this girl keeps repeating abusive patterns in her life. There were so many other ways she could have faced her problems without turning to violence.

ALA Nov 11 2025 10:01 pm So far, I would say drama is slow and boring Actors also are hard to watch One word to say very disappointing

Dark Chocolate Nov 11 2025 3:48 am I love KYJ so much she's very Good Actress since child , Her acting is SuperB , We Love you Our human Barbie Doll , I'm excited and patiently waiting for the next update/release of episode 5 , keep it up our Gorgeous Kim Yoo jung We're always support you no matter what happen...

Proudy Nov 09 2025 4:41 pm The adaptation of the webtoon is smoothly good.. all the characters in drama suitable for the role, 4 eps clearly make me think this should be best drama of 2025 after all

Kdh-Kyj-Kyd chemistry is worth to watch, i hope this drama, actress-actor, writer and etc have many awards for sure

Kene Nov 09 2025 12:46 pm KYJ my dear.... The Actress you are! You are doing Great and I am loving this drama!! I am so looking forward to the next episodes. Well written, well executed drama. Periodtt.

MR. X Nov 09 2025 12:24 pm Damn the script and setting of this series is phenomenal, got goosebumps all over..

Nabi Nov 09 2025 8:02 am I love this drama so much… KYJ is soooo good

Ng Nov 09 2025 6:25 am Woahhh, woahh look like glory drama

AMAN Nov 09 2025 5:23 am i like it..it's an interesting dark story... first time i'm impressed by Kim You-Jung acting.. her portrayal of a sociopath character is very convincing.

A Nov 08 2025 9:16 pm Okay let's talk about the plot. I think it's a little bit force to make her kinda like "evil" the whole point of the story to make sure villain win like how you guys always wanted from joker, thanos, etc.

This story just to satisfy your greed over villain.

Kyle Nov 08 2025 6:16 pm Hmm just so-so. Nothing as extraordinary as some people say

Thar Nov 08 2025 10:58 am After watching four episodes of this drama, I couldn’t help but feel terribly sorry for her boss. One lesson I took away is that not everyone deserves our sympathy or empathy. Sometimes, it’s better to just focus on living our own lives—and not be too arrogant trying to play the hero ? KYJ never disappointed me, she is just amazing.

daintyoojung Nov 08 2025 10:16 am pls give dear x lots of love, xoxo

Nia Nov 08 2025 3:11 am I just watched the third episode!? And Omg The Way Yoojung is Portraying The Character of Baek Ah Jin!? I can feel my evil side waking up like oh my goshh!? the evil laughs!? The psychic looks!? And her tone!? She's so good at portraying this role !?!? Not just her but the whole cast is so greatt!? I can't help but be drawn into watching it again and again !!!

Lee Nov 08 2025 2:41 am Kim You Jung is an amazing actress !

Blanca Trueba Nov 07 2025 6:09 pm Watched the first two episodes and was truly blown away by the acting of Ki So-yu (or Gi So-yoo), the child actress who plays young Ah-jin. I know she's a good actress (watched her since Our Blues, The Good Bad Mother and the recent Confidence Queen), but this Ah-jin character is really on another level. The scene where she blackmailed her stepmother (?) and let herself fall out of the window is intensely insane -- spectacular acting.

Wondering if she received counselling and psychological assistance during the shooting? The character is very, very dark for a child actress her age. Really hoping it won't affect her mentally in real life.

X Nov 07 2025 3:55 pm The ahjuzzi are so weird. He deserves the jail. I mean when he was 20 maybe FL is still 6-7 years old.. He went that far just for the girl that barely finish her high school. Wut a weirdo. He is definitely an epstein. FL did everything perfect. Put epstein to jail and cut ties with someone problematic before starting a career. If she keep them then this movie would ended up to be a Han So Hee real life story.

Baek soon gyu lover Nov 07 2025 1:21 pm Best movie hee hee i want to replicate ep 1 so bad to my X.. I hope my daughter can be as smart as ah jin, not only she was pretty but she also independent and wise. Uhh maybe it can be trained?? Her dad is my role model <3. First I need drunk wife and chaebol family.

sf Nov 07 2025 3:11 am After the first episode, I already hate Baek Ah-Jin and those stupid boys whom she is manipulating. Bad examples for the young students who will try to copy this behaviour because they like the actresses who play the character.

Ambra Nov 07 2025 2:25 am This seems to be the best drama so far this year. KYJ better than ever, rest of the cast also great and the story is just fantastic. High hopes for the next episodes. Very nice start! Love it!

love Nov 07 2025 1:26 am Wow, I just finished watching the first 4 episodes. Just Wow. The acting, the plot, the characters, I love them all. I read the webtoon twice; it's that good. recommended

Mae Nov 06 2025 10:48 pm Km Yoo Jung is the best in everything. Even in school uniform. She is so cute wearing the school uniform. She acts so well. An excellent acting and for sure she will be recognized for portraying her role so well. Congrats Dear X staff, director and casts. I love the drama so much

Zel Nov 06 2025 10:46 pm All the casts are great. They portrayed so well their role. However, my salute goes more to the female lead. She is the best in her character. She looks also good in school uniform. Great actress indeed and most of all she is so gorgeous.

Anon Nov 06 2025 7:23 pm I just realized that all the cast listed so far except two have the same surname Kim.

Star Nov 06 2025 2:18 pm Finally.. what a great drama after genie make a wish.. lately kdrama been so boring since august

Chey Nov 06 2025 1:53 pm This child actress, Gi So Yoo is extremely good! I recognized her face straight away the moment she was on screen, she's the little awesome girl in Our Blues.

Omgee! Growing up into a pretty girl with extreme talent to boot. She's a force to reckon with!

Episode 2: Both child actors are great!?

As for Kim You Jung, she never disappoints! A truly bestie actress and a gorgeous one.

THIS drama is a tad heavy. .not for those with weak hearts but I love genre like this... gives us insight as to why people behave the way they do.

JT Nov 06 2025 12:51 pm KYJ’s portrayal of Baek Ah Jin is just remarkable… wow

Sara Nov 06 2025 8:19 am Yeah, she obviously looks older than her classmates in the school scenes.. She doesn’t have that baby face like Kim Do Hoon or Kim Young Dae..

njun Nov 03 2025 2:34 am I think this serial is going to be phenomenal...

Jonah Sep 24 2025 9:46 am Im excited to watch this drama,my favorite you jung
