I was watching When Life Gives You Tangerines earlier and I just realized how much I love a quiet/shy/introverted ML. Can you guys recommend me some more kdramas with that type of ML? Here are some kdramas I’ve seen that fit the description, I was just looking for more.

- Extrordinary You

- True Beauty

- Because this is my first Life

- Reply 1988

- Love Next Door

- Into the ring

I also like when the ML is kinda “weak” compared to the FL like in Love next door, Into the ring and WLGYT.

Thank you!

Run On - Definitely also has the Strong FL/Weak ML dynamic since FL isn't shy
Summer Strike

Snatching reccs for myself too cuz I love cute soft-spoken men and I need a fix <3

If you’re looking for a quiet, shy ML, I’d recommend 'My Mister' or 'Because This is My First Life.' Both have introspective male leads who don’t fit the usual loud K-drama mold. When my professor asked for a detailed thesis proposal, I wasn’t sure how to structure it properly. My senior suggested checking Academized at https://academized.com/thesis-proposal here. Their expert writers assist in crafting well-organized proposals that meet academic requirements. I decided to use their service, and it saved me a lot of stress. If you're struggling with a thesis proposal, Academized is a great solution.

1. Panda & Hedgehog - ML is introverted, a little shy but not quiet.

2. Mystic Pop Up Bar - ML seems rather week, a bit quiet but probably not introverted.

3. Introverted Boss

4. Come and Hug Me - ML is a little shy, quiet in a different kind of way, maybe not so introverted.

5. Love Scout - ML is not really any of those but he is considered, considerate and careful. It is a CEO falls for secretary drama. I really liked it. Two mature adults being mature adults, mostly.
