1. Cunning Single Lady
Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
Why would you go back to your ex when there is such a sweet handsome caring fellow right there next to you? Her ex-spouse wasn't worth it.

2. Who Are You: School 2015
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
This drama had the leads all messed up. Tae Gwang should have been the lead who got the girl in the end, the other guy was in love with her so called twin the whole time not her and yet he ended up with her in the end?! wth?! We all knew Tae Gwang was the one she was meant for.

3. She Was Pretty
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
In every way he was better than the lead. Simple as that.

4. Inspiring Generation
Korean Drama - 2014, 24 episodes
Mo Il Hwa - the reason this drama exists lol

5. Goong S
Korean Drama - 2007, 20 episodes
The main lead guy and the 2nd lead girl belonged together, I don't know what the writer was thinking when she paired him with that maid girl... no chemistry between them at all.
-
6. Who Are You
Korean Drama - 2013, 16 episodes
What can I say, I loved them both equally. Both the main lead and 2nd lead. How could I hate a man that's already dead anyways? When he's so nice? They both had equal parts of my heart.

7. Over the Rainbow
Korean Drama - 2006, 16 episodes
Ok, I liked the lead guy, but the 2nd lead played by Hwanee just really made me drawn to him at some point and I started to ship him with the lead girl. My heart was once again divided in a drama. I don't know where my heart would have taken me if I were in her shoes.... Especially after he sang that song 'Tomorrow' <3

8. Glory Jane
Korean Drama - 2011, 24 episodes
The lead guy was NOTHING compared to our second lead, who in all honesty, was quite pitiful. I wanted him to win the girl in the end just as he had won my heart.

9. My Secret Hotel
Korean Drama - 2014, 16 episodes
Sorry to say, but I hated her ex. Such a whiner and so immature. I loved Nam Goong Min's character much more, so mature, so loveable - everything her ex wasn't.
-
10. Love Is Drop by Drop
Korean Drama - 2016, 120 episodes
I couldn't even finish this b/c of my dislike for the lead guy and the main couple had zero chemistry. Wang Ji Hye looks like a brick in this drama. But I so LOVED our second lead guy, such a good pure heart and so so so handsome! Gosh, I wanted him to win!

11. Seoul 1945
Korean Drama - 2006, 71 episodes
A steadfast unbending honest lover like him, why why why would she make such a poor choice and choose that wrong guy? just WHY?!!!!
-
12. Judge vs. Judge
Korean Drama - 2017, 32 episodes
Dong Ha's character is just WAY more appealing and he has WAY more depth to his character, the lead is dreadfully boring! Dong Ha captured my heart in episode 1 and he will have my heart till the very end!

13. Children of a Lesser God
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
Joo Ha Min <3
