Drama With Protective Man--Fast Pace

Tawainese dramas that mayy fit your criteria: It Started With a Kiss and it's sequel They Kiss Again. (Tawainese version of Itazura na Kiss) Hana Kimi Taiwan (My personal favorite version) Korean dramas: Gu Family Book The Heirs (You'll either love it or hate it. Personally, I loved it) The Greatest Love

Thank you for your responses! I will definitely check these out!

You know, I'm hearing a lot of chatter about You Who Came From the Stars. I may have to start watching!

May I recommend Faith, since you're a Lee Min Ho fan? I personally think it's his best work. However, to be fair, some parts of the middle are a bit draggy. But man, the protection and mutual affection are through the roof. It helps that the female lead isn't a ditzy wimp either although she seems that way in the beginning. Watch it when you have time to follow all the nuances and you will not be disappointed. I also second My Love from another Star and once you've fallen in love with KSH, you won't mind the brief detour from rom coms to enjoy his other great work: Moon that Embraces the Sun. He's also in Dream High and although it was a great high school show, I didn't find it romantic or funny. He plays the alpha protector in all those roles. If you love Taiwanese romcoms then you may also enjoy Love in Time with You. The lead guy is pretty protective too.

OMG! I mostly agree with your suggestions, hehe :))) I think if you liked Secret Garden and Boy Over Flowers, you must check out Flower Boy Ramyun Shop!!! It slowed abit after the first half, but it managed to pick up again and I must say I REALLYYY LIKED THE SHOW AND THE CHEMISTRY IS AWESOME! I'm currently watching a Gentlemen's dignity up till ep 5 cuz I've heard lots of good feedback about the show~!!! I'm really good so far, SUPER FUNNY and I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE GUY!! He reminds me alot of JooWon from Secret Garden, like his style, his talking, his dressing, his personality,.. I think you'll love it! The 4 guys are the ahjussi version of F4 whom I'm sure you'll love just as much too!! OMG I also think You're Beautiful was not as good as the rest, yet there was something about it that I enjoyed...so glad we kinda share same taste ;)For Taiwanese dramas, you must watch Fated To Love You!!! Idek if you already have, maybe you forgot to mention cuz it's 2006 (i think) but trust me, IT IS DANGEROUSLY ADDICTIVE!! <3 It has a perfect mix of HUMOUR (YES, lots of this you'll laugh till your sides hurt trust me! Even when I rewatched it, it still worked the same ), ROMANCE (I watched it quite a while ago and I only rewatched various episodes cuz I have no time, but I remember the male lead being very loveable and very sincere in his efforts to get back the girl. I loved him ttm), Melodrama (I think I cried alot too), and ultimately, the 24 episodes will take you through a rollercoaster of emotions but I guarantee you'll love it and be more than satisfied at the end! I don't know anybody who didn't like it ;) Down With Love is another classic but I loved it so much, it played its encore many times on tv so I kinda saw it many times, LOVE the sweetness and chemistry!! My fav tdrama is Love Keeps GOing though, i remember it was very fun to watch, and the guy brought the girl through a change too! the chemistry is EXPLODING THROUGH THE ROOF, and with Mike HE, you'll get lots of steamy kisses too;) Loved the show! Hope this helped!

I second Faith and Just You :D

My all time favorite is Innocent Man (Nice Guy) Maru is very Protective and has this brooding darkness going on. Its not as high paced but it is highly addicting. Happy watching!
