My Mister is a Korean television series that made me almost grateful for my troubles, because they are nothing compared to what the two main characters have to deal with in this suspense drama. As I watched the first episode I thought it would be another office life/corporate politics story, but then it just kept expanding and becoming more intense as the conflicts tangled and twisted.
It broke my heart a bunch of times, too. I became deeply invested in nearly all the characters, and for the first time felt the serious weight and worry that family and position has for most Koreans.
I don't recommend this show for anyone who is triggered by portrayals of physical violence against women (and although not very frequent they were difficult for me to watch, too), but otherwise it's an absorbing and heart-wrenching series.
