As strange as it may sound, fans of K-Drama are all for couples who, in their self-interest, sign a contract only to find out later on that it binds them to each other permanently. These five K-dramas, which revolve around contract marriages and are guaranteed to please fans, range from Song Kang’s My Demon to Jung Yoo Min’s Perfect Marriage Revenge.

Interestingly enough, her sister is crushing on him as well. Do Guk eagerly obliges, letting Han Yi Joo use him anyway she pleases.
