k-drama 2023-2025, no 2nd female lead

kanade

Any recs for new kdramas  2023-2025 (upcoming ones with already known plot and characters also welcome) without an annoying,  jealous 2nd female lead?

- romance  main focus of the story
- ml falls 1st
- no thrillers, action, lawyer, historical

I meant there is no 2nd female lead lusting after the ML

Oh, I may not watch anything like that during 2023-2024. Probably someone else will come out with something.

Check out "Nine Puzzles" (2025), a romantic thriller with a unique plot. The story revolves around a profiler and a detective as they uncover hidden truths. If you're looking for a romance in which the male lead falls first, I recommend "The Interest of Love" (2023). This film explores the dynamics of love in a workplace setting. During my time in college, I struggled with writing assignments and needed help in writing it. In my search for assistance, I came across DoMyPaper and decided to try domypaper.com for help, which I found to be exceptionally helpful. DoMyPaper provide high-quality content without relying on AI-generated material, making them the best educational service provider for my needs. This helpd in all my writing needs.

Here's what I came up with:

thanks for the recs added king da land to my ptw, looks really promising
from the description of lovely runner on mdl it seems like its the fml  that fell first, and traveled in time to save him or something ,but maybe im wrong, anyway i will stay away from it for now
a good day to be a dog  has a Female Chases Male First  tag, so im not so sure
anyway thanks again, definitely will watch king da land

 emeraldarrows:

also thanks for the recs
My Sweet Mobster added to my ptw
from the comment section of family by choice it looks like ml is a big mama's boy that cares more about her than anything else, and apparently the mom is a real bit*h too, so i will skip it
See You in My 19th Life  been siting on my ptw for some time now, since you confirmed its sfml free guess i will have to finally watch it


If anyone got anymore, i would appreciate it

Technically true, but he has liked her for far longer. Funny reveal on why he hesitated.

She chase him bc of the plot, not bc she likes him.

Raven Girl

In Lovely Runner, she likes him as a fan but he has liked her longer(romantically).

Lovely Runner

That was a seriously great recommendation right there, rated it 9/10 and added it to my favorites.

 angeliviki2022:
King the Land

Was okay, nothing special but also not bad, rated 7/10.

 emeraldarrows:
See You in My 19th Life

Just noticed it has an age gap (I know she's technically like 100 years old or something, but the actors' age gap is too big for me and a big nope), so I will pass

The Midnight Studio

From the description, it sounds like your typical US procedural - which I hate with all my heart.


Is there really nothing more?

See You in My 19th Life has no age gap between the actors (they're less than a year apart in real life) and she's not 100 (she reincarnates each time she dies so the character is 20 something in the current life). The characters are supposed to have something of an age gap (ML older), though, if that's what you mean.

Read in a comment or some forum thread (I don't really remember where, not that it matters) that there is a 9-year age gap. It doesn’t matter to me if it's in real life with the actors or with the characters—I didn’t dwell on it more after that, which is why I might be mistaken about some facts. By 100 years, I meant in spirit, since she remembers all of her previous lives, so it adds up and stuff. But as I said, it all doesn’t matter. A 9-year gap is a big nope; that’s why I never watched Goblin as well
