Anyone have any recs for dramas where the ML and FL are truly equals?

A  few examples:

- ML/FL both protect each other, not just the ML always protecting/saving the FL

- ML/FL  respect each other in all ways, they don't treat each other based on sexist stereotypes

- ML/FL communicate and don't let misunderstandings ruin their relationship

Any suggestions along these lines would be great. Thanks in advance!

try:

  • Itaewon class - they are boss-subordinate at work but their relationship is very much level, he will listen to whatever she suggest and recommends...
  • Hospital Playlist - Ikjun & Mido
  • Kikazaru Koi ni wa Riyuu ga Atte
  • Run On

Young Blood (C-drama): equals in fight & intelligence, it won’t be obvious at the first 3 ep tho but will be when the twists come.

Stealth Walker: Both can hold their ground u could say.

Silent evidence: They r both skilled at what they do.

Hyena - both are amazing lowers and rivals at the beginning but grow together 

The Legends - she is a rebellious demon which stand up against the gods, and he is the son of the former demon king. They are both powerful and skilled. They are not equal all the time, but the pendulum keeps moving constantly

(your last point is not fulfilled in both dramas)

The best at this, IMO, is One Spring Night. Both the leads are mature, intelligent people who listen to each other and work together in finding solutions to their situation.   Never once did I feel as though the dialogue between the leads was faked or forced, which is pretty rare for K-dramas.

Thanks everyone for the recs!
