Characters who can steal my kidney and I will not complain
My favourite people list was getting heavier and heavier with each passing day and I realised that I added some people in it for one simple reason: I loved one of their character to death, so it became more about the characters rather than the actors themselves. Therefore, I decided to create this list for my ramblings about my favourite drama characters.
"Then have you ever tried just not rambling? Would you die if you didn't ramble for 2 seconds?" Yes, my doctor said so. Being corny is my sickness and the cure at the same time. Let me unleash my inner corncob.
Fun Fact: An Suho was the first character I thought of adding here because I've been obsessed with him in Weak Hero Class, that's why he's currently at number 1. He deserves that place.

Choi Hyun Wook
South Korean
Weak Hero Class 1 | An Suho
Funny, charming, what he eats for breakfast alone is enough to feed 6 families. Suho is the type of guy to beat someone to death because they called you, his dear friend, a 'doo doo head' and didn't kneel to apologise profusely.
Is he crazy? He must be, because I love him and I love crazy.

Park Ji Hoon
South Korean
Weak Hero Class 1 | Yeon Sieun
Just give a freshly-baked cinnamon roll a clicky pen, a murderous gaze and a desire to protect his friends and then you get Yeon Sieun. He usually doesn't look like he can kill, but you wouldn't want to take a chance.

Ryu Da In
South Korean
Pyramid Game | Myung Jaeun
If it was called 'card game' she would be the queen of hearts because she has definitely won mine.
-
Wang Xue Xi
Chinese
Legend of Yunze | Jiang Zhao Yun
I just need a protective wife who carries around a sword and me in her arms. Is it too much to ask for?
-
Zhao Lu Si
Chinese
Love Like the Galaxy | Cheng Shao Shang, Niao Niao
The final boss of 'try not to fall in love' challenge.
-
Yoon Chan Young
South Korean
High School Return of a Gangster | Song I Heon
Don't really care about him romantically, I just want to protect him with my life. Or die trying.
-
Hong Yao
Chinese
Untouchable Lovers | Heng Yuan
I remember yelling at the fl for not choosing him. Little did I know, the writer did this because he was actually meant to be mine. One girl's second ml is sometimes another girl's main ml.
-
Wang Xing Yue
Chinese
The Double | Xiao Heng, Duke Su, The Duke of Su Guo
Pardon my lack of decorum but respectfully speaking, I need a Duke Su in my life. Disrespectfully speaking, I need a Duke Su between my legs.
Yes, I know where the door is and I'm walking out right now
...wait a damn minute, this is my list. It's like leaving my own house because I cracked a bad joke in front of the guests.
-
Wu Jin Yan
Chinese
The Double | Xue Fangfei
No offence but I'll stab Duke Su for her. She'll probably report me for that though...
Story of Yanxi Palace | Wei Yingluo
I love everything about Yingluo but I have one small problem with her character: why didn't she marry me towards the end? We deserve a happily ever after.
-
Arthur Chen
Chinese
Ever Night | Ning Que
Ning Que is the type of person to climb over the wall made of glass, just to see what's on the other side. He's a genius in a very dumbass way.
-
Yan An
Chinese
Fangs of Fortune | Li Lun
I love Li Lun but his weapon of choice is never going to stop being funny to me. They gave this man a RATTLE and he still managed to be a menace with it. Babies play with that thing, Li Lun kills with it. Imagine dying at the hands of a fucking rattle-wielding demon out of everyone else in the world, I would die a second time out of shame.
I also need an entire spin-off on Li Lun. I do not care if it's 40 episodes of him just staring at a wall and eating grass. I need it.
-
Zhang Ling He
Chinese
Xie Wei | Story of Kunning Palace
Only one who matched Jiang Xuening's freak, that in itself is commendable.
-
Wang Duo
Chinese
A League of Nobleman | Gu Qing Zhang
His story brought out so much emotional pain that it began to hurt physically.
The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity | He Shou Ye
Guo Jingming, give me the fucking sequel.
-
Tian Jia Rui
Chinese
Fangs of Fortune | Zhuo Yichen & Bing Yi
Zhuo Yichen needs a long vacation and tons of therapy. Bing Yi needs to stop being so stabby-stabby and just marry his man Ying Long.
-
Cheng Xiao
Chinese
Fangs of Fortune | Pei Si Jing
If you looked into my heart, you'll find:

Lai Wei Ming
Chinese
Fangs of Fortune | Pei Si Heng
"You can't protect her"
"I can't, but I must"And that was the moment I knew, he's the best fictional younger brother I have ever seen and would ever see in my life. Watching him fight to protect his sister made me want to rush out of my room, barge into my lil brother's and hug him tightly while expressing how grateful I am to have him in my life. But when I actually went to do that, my brother started ranting about Yakuza: Like a Dragon and all the love I had for him immediately died down.
-
Lomon
South Korean
All of Us Are Dead | Lee Su Hyeok
Ngl I like him because he was the most useful character in the whole drama. If he wasn't there, all of them would've actually been dead.
-
Sakurai Hinako
Japanese
Furo Girl | Oyumino Sayoko
'Clean aesthetic' mfs got nothing on my girl. She bathes like she's cleaning the sins of her past life.
-
Kim Ok Bin
South Korean
Arthdal Chronicles | Tae Al Ha
Both her and Tagon had so much depth, they're complex characters done right. Tae Al Ha also looked like Megara from Hercules in her purple dress and wavy hair, Megara was my childhood crush so I had no choice but to fall in love with Tae Al Ha.
-
Song Joong Ki
South Korean
Arthdal Chronicles | Eun Seom & Saya
One of them would braid my hair, the other would pull my hair. They're polar opposites when it comes to everything except for being a menace. And the thing is, I want to be friends with both of them. If they existed in real life, during these times, Eum Seom would be the type of friend to tutor me for free and Saya would help me cheat in my exams.
-
Woo Do Hwan
South Korean
The Divine Fury | Ji Shin
What's with hot priests in so many horror medias? Ji Shin just made me want to Ji Sin, I'll get myself possessed just for him to visit me.
-
Naran
Russian
Creation of the Gods Ⅰ Kingdom of Storms | Su Daji
I believe I was put on earth to worship this woman.
-
Onishi Ryusei
Japanese
Muchuu-sa, Kimi ni | Hayashi Miyoshi
Dude got stopped and questioned by the police 3 times in a row because he had a panda costume on, making it pretty apparent that he's a threat to all civilians.
-
Meguro Ren
Japanese
Silent | Sakura So
His expressions silently expressed more than any words in this world could. But he made me bitch-cry in the middle of the night, and that won't be forgiven.
-
Wang Yan Yang
Chinese
Ancient Detective | Zhao Wohuan
Gentle giant. The type of man to befriend a squirrel. Do I need to say more?
-
Yeo Jin Goo
South Korean
The Crowned Clown | Clown Ha Seon
The romance was drier than sahara but do you know what was wet?
This man's eyes. He has such clear sparkling eyes, they're basically a mirror at this point; I could even see the camera lens in them sometimes, and you can't put the blame on the cameraman as it didn't happen to any other actor in the drama. At all. This guy is just built different.
-
Kamimura Kenshin
Japanese
Miseinen | Hirukawa Haruki
Do not, I repeat, do not give this man an ice cream. His neuron activates in a way you wouldn't want it to be activated.
-
Kim Ji Hoon
South Korean
Money Heist: Korea - Joint Economic Area | Denver
Has more golden retriever energy than actual golden retrievers do. He's in a constant state of silliness.
Also, I'm glad that the actor never cuts off his long hair for his roles, they're gorgeous and you barely get to see long-haired guys in modern dramas anymore.
-
Lee Chung Ah
South Korean
Celebrity | Yun Si Hyeon
One of my favourite sfls of all time. I kept waiting for a I-saw-it-coming backstab from her side because I couldn't believe that someone as nice as her, especially as the sfl who still wasn't over the ml, could exist in a drama as crazy as Celebrity was... but she was just like 'bitch have some faith in me, I indeed AM as nice as I seem to be.' I loved that despite her leftover feelings for the ml from their college days, she neither cheated on her husband (despite their marriage being the typical one you'll come across in makjangs that love to abuse the hell out of the extramarital affair trope — loveless, hopeless, business marriage with a partner so shitty he could put public toilet to shame) nor tried to sabotage the fl, instead she had the fl's back throughout the entire drama.
She started out as a graceful queen with a calm voice that could make even swear words from her mouth sound like a lullaby, and she remained the same way.
