Hello i am looking for dramas where the male lead is always understanding to the female lead, kind/caring and even if FL doesn't acknowledge her at first he just keeps it in within himself, while the female lead is sort of clever and can defend herself/outspoken.

Some of the examples of dramas i have watched are below and i want more similar to these:

1. In Time with You (Taiwanese Drama) 2011 - ML is understanding to the FL, speaks less, helps and likes FL without letting her know.

2. Inborn Pair (Taiwanese Drama) 2011 - ML is so understanding of the FL throughout the drama that he would not get angry at her even after the arranged marriage with her. Keeps his emotions inside,. Always trusted the FL as well. 

3. Ugly Alert (Korean Drama) 2013 - ML is kind to everybody, he is quite reserved and pitiful as well. 

4.  Game Sanaeha (Thai Drama) 2018 - ML always stood by the side of FL even though FL treated her pretty badly almost 75% of the drama. ML is kind and caring as well.

5. The First Frost (Chinese Drama) - 2025 ML is just so supportive of FL from first episode till the last. ML would do all sorts of things just so FL can be happy and not worried about certain things. 

I am welcome to dramas from any country (as you can see from the list) as long as the criteria of ML is fulfilled as above.

  • Meeting You - super sweet and soft ML, he's mostly reserved but a kind person and treats FL well, FL is outspoken and popular
  • Serendipity's Embrace - the ML is a bit awkward so that comes off as cold to the FL at first but he's a really good guy and cares for her a lot
  • Abyss - FL has a stronger personality while ML is more reserved, awkward, and sweet
  • Midnight Romance in Hagwon - ML is confident and smart but also generally a good person and supportive to the FL
  • Love Me, Love My Voice - pure fluff, ML is a very good boi

I have a list for green flag MLs with some more suggestions
