❤❤My ML Harem❤❤
POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT: I am starting to add comments in my lists in lieu of reviews/notes so beware of the potential spoilers. I will try to keep them to a minimum because I get it.
Ranked. While I almost always love the MLs, these are my heart fluttery MLs who made me feel all the things. My LOVE love MLs.
NOTE: This is not a favorite actor list. This is list is based on the ML in the corresponding drama.
-
1. Doctors
Korean Drama - 2016, 20 episodes
One of my all-time fave MLS ❤ It's all in the way he looks at her and supports her 100%, even when he doesn't understand or agree with her. He is what inspired this list.
-
2. Dating in the Kitchen
Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
Lu Jin is a smoldering, sexy "older" man who I could not get enough of. The chemistry he has with the FL is the reason I keep watching romance dramas.
-
3. Murphy's Law of Love
Taiwanese Drama - 2015, 19 episodes
His secret smiles are everything!
-
4. Because This is My First Life
Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes
Se Hee is a ML you want to always protect. He deserves all the love.
-
5. The Master's Sun
Korean Drama - 2013, 17 episodes
I mean, it's So Ji Sub. He has this intensity about him that is hard to match.
-
6. Her Private Life
Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Oh, Ryan Gold ❤❤ Their chemistry is amazing.
-
7. Oh My Venus
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
I think we all need a John Kim in our lives <3
-
8. Queen In Hyun's Man
Korean Drama - 2012, 16 episodes
I loved the way he looked at her and I loved them being together. One of my favorite couples and he's a major reason for that!
-
9. Hello Again!
Taiwanese Drama - 2019, 16 episodes
Yang Zi Hao is so adorable (and a little naughty, too!). He made this show. If you watch it, watch it for him.
-
10. My Roommate is a Gumiho
Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
Shin Woo Yeo is the epitome of unhumanly beauty. His presence is undeniable. From episode one he owns every shot he's in.
-
11. A Beautiful Mind
Korean Drama - 2016, 14 episodes
There is just something about misunderstood MLs with tragic backstories. Lee Young Oh is no exception. Brilliant and calculating with a weird charisma that I couldn't get enough of. Jang Hyuk did an amazing job with this role.
-
12. Love Me If You Dare
Chinese Drama - 2015, 24 episodes
I could watch him (Wallace Huo) all day. What a pretty and intense man he made Bo Jin Yan.
-
13. Devilish Joy
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
He goes through so much and tries so hard to hold it together. I just wanted him to keep smiling. Plus, he's tall. I would let him scoop me up and shelter me.
-
14. Jealousy Incarnate
Korean Drama - 2016, 24 episodes
Jealousy really does bring out the hotness that is Hwa Shin and I'm here for it ❤❤
-
15. It's Okay, That's Love
Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
It was the dance moves that got me. So smooth.
-
16. A Gentleman's Dignity
Korean Drama - 2012, 20 episodes
Do Jin is the kind of reformed rake we all secretly crave. The kind who will give up his libertine ways once he finds his "one". I am so here for it.
-
17. Doctor John
Korean Drama - 2019, 32 episodes
Ji Sung is mesmerizing in whatever role he plays. It makes it hard to differentiate the actor from the character. However, Dr. Cha makes the list because a) yes, he is played by Ji Sung, but also because b) he was selflessly dedicated and passionate about helping people.
-
18. Kill Me, Heal Me
Korean Drama - 2015, 20 episodes
He is just so good in this one (even though the FL is a bit much and kind of annoying). Seriously, I think I'm going to fangirl his every ML.
-
19. You're All Surrounded
Korean Drama - 2014, 20 episodes
I will forever be team Detective Seo ❤️❤️
-
20. Go Ho's Starry Night
Korean Drama - 2016, 20 episodes
Another one of the brooding leads that I love so much ❤❤
-
21. You Are My Glory
Chinese Drama - 2021, 32 episodes
Yu Tu wasn't originally going to go on this list. While I like aloof but mild MLs, I LOVE the darker more broody MLs the most. But the more I thought about Yu Tu, the more I think he deserves to be here. When he told her he was going to be more aggressive and take the initiative (bc that's what she wanted) but needed her to tell him when he was going too far, that kind of did it for me. Then when he took her back to his apartment because it had been 2 months and he couldn't wait any longer, that really did it for me. And then seeing him step out of that jeep in the desert, I literally squealed. So yeah, mild-mannered Yu Tu is making the list.

22. Love Scenery
Chinese Drama - 2021, 31 episodes
Here's another ML who wasn't originally going to make the cut because a) he's pretty young, and b) he's got such nice guy energy. HOWEVER, even though he has nice guy energy, Lu Jing's a little bit of a naughty boy and I can't get past that (in the best way possible).
