Looking for shows that have a ML who fits one or more than one (which would be awesome) of these traits. 

6 prime examples are Tan Xuan Lin ("Fall in Love" 2021), Nam Han Jun ("Cafe Minamdong" 2022),  Xu Zhe Qing ("Embrace in the Dark Night" 2024), Nie Zhen ("My Everlasting Bride", 2023), Kang Han Su ("Joseon Attorney", 2024), Mo Ling Ze ("Love at Night", 2021)

Traits (again, looking for one or more of these traits in the ML):

* Flirtatious

* Cocky

* Morally gray/"bad boy"

* Guy falls first and pursues the girl

* Rivals/Enemies to Lovers

Any good recommendations?

Thanks!

In both of these the MLs tick all the boxes more or less as far as I remember.

I’ve actually considered “Arsenal Military Academy” on and off so this probably just sealed the deal. Thanks so much

This is so helpful!

  • Meteor Garden (and all the other adaptations) - cocky bad boy ML who falls first and pursues the FL, enemies to lovers
  • Mysterious Love - he reminds me a lot of the ML of Embrace in the Dark Night
  • Wonderland of Love - kind of flirty/cocky ML who falls first and pursues the FL
  • Jun Jiu Ling - flirty, kind of playful ML

Seen “Meteor Garden” and “Mysterious Love”, and yes those work great!!! However I had been back and forth about “Wonderland of Love” so I think you just convinced me. Thanks so much.
