  • Seo Ji Hoon

    South Korean

    Drama: Flower Crew. 

    Role: Lee Soo/ Kim Soo 

    Here he is second ML, but far better than the first who is closer to the type of lead being avoided here. He is kind to the female lead, never insulting her or treating her as lesser. He is good to others as well, it is not just 'only care for the girl I want'. He is the best thing about the entire drama.

  • Peter Ho

    Taiwanese

    Drama: Nothing Gold Can Stay

    Role: Wu Pin.

    I saw this one more recently and Wu Pin probably surpasses all male leads. He is very supportive of the female lead, smart, diplomatic, and caring for others. 

  • Li Xian

    Chinese

    Drama: Flourised Peony part one. Role Jiang Chang Yang.

    I am only basing this on the first half of the drama. After seeing so many possessive and rude male leads,  he was a breath of fresh air. He does not man handle the female lead and is more of a comedian.
