    Karma - Twists, Tension, and Top-Tier Storytelling

    Korean TV shows have a well-earned reputation for deep, layered storytelling-and Karma takes that legacy and turns it up a notch. When it comes to jaw-dropping twists and turns, this series doesn't just meet expectations-it raises the bar.

    From the very first episode, Karma grips you and doesn't let go. What makes it even more impressive is how it weaves multiple storylines together-each compelling on its own-without ever feeling messy or overwhelming. It all ties together beautifully in the end, leaving you both satisfied and impressed.

    The direction is sharp, the pacing is spot on, and the acting hits the mark at every turn. You can tell the creators knew exactly what they were doing-and they executed it with precision.

    All in all, this is easily one of the best Korean TV shows on Netflix right now. If you love layered narratives and smart storytelling, Karma is a must-watch.

    Karma🔥

    Karma" presents a complex narrative that intertwines the lives of its characters through themes of fate and consequence. While the series boasts strong performances and a thought-provoking plot.

    This drama has only six episodes, but each one is so intense that I couldn't stop, that's why I binge-watched it. I love every single episode. The actors truly brought their roles to life.

    Each character has an intriguing story, and everyone is closely intertwined in unexpected twists. The title Karma perfectly captures the essence of the drama.

    Storytelling, acting, suspense, background music, cinematography, pacing, and even its concise format-this drama is a perfect 10/10. I wholeheartedly urge you to watch Karma 2025, especially if this genre aligns with your interests or if you're looking to explore something new.

    No one does vengeance like korean cinema

    I just stumbled on this show and only was going to watch an episode to check it out. I had no previous knowledge of this show or the cast.

    I was hooked after the first episode and binge watched the entire series in one shot. While this is a series, it feels more like a long movie. When a series gives you that sensation, its probably because its really good.

    Had to look up the movie since I was curious about it and it seems to be based on a kakao webtoon of the same name, which kind of explains why the story is so well thought out. The way the series was edited was really well done but I felt like they gave away too much and it became obvious at a certain point what was ending was going to be. The story is edited in a back and forth time jump, perhaps to confuse the viewer with overly abundant details so that the ending wouldn't be obvious.

    I really enjoyed the story. Basically a vengeance story with a satisfying ending. I haven't read it so I'm not sure if the webtoon was this intricate in laying down the backstory for each character, then intertwining them together but thats how this series turned out. The script was just really well done and edited.

    There were a few things I felt could have been done differently. The subtitles are terrible, sometimes its better to write the true, more direct translation instead of interpreting it as what it would be the most similar in english. Even if it doesn't make complete sense or the grammar is incorrect, I think the audience would better understand.

    Second issue was the overly vivid and exaggerated colors used in the film. This has become very common place in kpop music videos and alot of korean movies since Snowpiercer, its also very common in korean TV. I thought it in this application, it diminished the theme a little bit. The effect works when you want to present a surreal environment but doesn't work so well in this dark thriller drama.

    Setting is top notch. Beautiful background of the clean modern techno city that is Seoul but also that gritty grimey alleyway Gotham like city that is also Seoul.

    Highly recommend this series.

    Exceptional

    Absolutely loved this! Amazing plot, excellent acting and a title that lives up to its name! Definitely deserves the 10 stars I've just given it.

    Every part of it is tightly wrapped up into six well scripted episodes. Each one delves deeper into the twisted and despicable characters laid before you, all interwoven into each others stories with a web that just seems to get bigger as you get further in.

    Six episodes was just enough, anymore would have been pointless and could have ruined the amazing atmosphere that was carefully created. This series has cemented itself into my top 10 of all time.

    A very well done series!

    Easily one of the finest limited Korean series of the year! Story revolves around one accident n 6 characters n how each character is intertwined to each other n to the accident. With the title Karma, story makes complete justice with numerous twists one after the other showcasing how they pay for each of their deeds. Every twist comes unexpected n difficult to guess. Though quite slow yet very neat perfect direction. A total of 6 episodes with each an average of 45 minutes. Dubbed in Hindi as well. Available in Netflix, my ratings 8.5/10!
