Indian rummy, teen patti, ganjifa, thunee.
I think rummy and other card games can be pretty addictive. And many people tend to play the game but not sure how many win.
Yeah the thing about the rummy like game is that it can also make you lose money in real life if you put it in there.
Lot of Korean and Japanese card games have the translation problem. So you may have to find the game which has good english and something you can read for rules and stuff.
Point. In fact the thing is that many old games didn't reached to us because of that reason. I think I missed many good games from those nations due to lack of translation.
