Crazy-In-Love MLs

1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7

ML falls fast and is very clingy and physically affectionate. he's also a villain so he lies and kidnaps her and forces her to stay by his side

1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7

1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

ML is wildly devoted and falls in love at first sight. She stabs him and he's a-okay with that.
He does kidnap the FL and force her to marry him basically. but shhhhhhh it's cute I promise

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7

Mr. "You cause the trouble, I'll clean the mess" - this ML is the ultimate wife guy

yandere bully ML, he's relentless (and violent) in his pursuit of the FL but eventually becomes utterly whipped and changes his whole life for her sake

2, 4, 5, 6, 7

Mr. "I have a craving for you" - ML is down BAD for the FL

He is very clingy and forward in his advances, and becomes very obsessive and jealous once he falls in love. he tells the FL that if she won't stay with him willingly, he will chain her to him. he's also protective though and works hard to keep her from harm. 

1, 2, 3, 4, 6

This man. he straight up stabs himself in the heart just so that the FL will worry about his health and stay nearby. he is CRAZY in love.

1, 2, 3, 5, 7

If you like ridiculously obsessive MLs who don't give up no matter what, this one's for you. Just beware of the assault warning tag bc it very much applies to this ML. FL rejects him for a long time though she secretly loves him back

SML is also toxically obsessed - "I'd rather turn my back on the world than betray you"

1, 2, 3, 6, 7

cute ML. he's loved the FL since childhood and pursues her doggedly, to the point where he overhauls his whole life to suit her and loves her even as she rejects him

1, 3, 4, 6, 7

ML falls quickly and long before the FL does. he keeps pursuing her despite numerous rejections and makes a total fool of himself chasing after her.

1, 2, 4, 6, 7

ML is pretty desperately in love. Very long chase involving lots of jealousy and clinginess while the FL remains unmoved

1, 2, 4, 6, 7

ML falls quickly and is a sweet clingy idiot who loves the FL even when she yells at him. he's got cartoon hearts in his eyes whenever he looks at her. "no matter how you push me away, I have 100 ways to get closer to you"

1, 4, 5, 6, 7

The FL is the ML's one and only, he changes his life completely after meeting her. He does all the chasing and misuses his power to keep her close.

2, 3, 4, 5, 6

ML is cast as the villain at first and holds the FL hostage. he's sexually aggressive but also so crazy whipped, completely in love with her no matter what she does. Has loved her since childhood

1, 4, 5, 6, 7

very obsessive ML. he forces the FL into a contract relationship/cohabitation arrangement through lies and manipulation. 

1, 2, 3, 6

ML is bursting with spice and a great kisser

1, 2, 3, 6

sweet puppy ML, he falls head over heels for the FL before he even knows she's an FL, not an ML. and he becomes her #1 cheerleader throughout the drama

1, 2, 3, 7

ML is super whipped for the FL, who orders him around like a servant haha. they have great physical chemistry too but cw for forced kiss

1, 2, 3, 7

"I won't interfere with another man's woman. But a widow is a different matter" - the pair of STEEL balls on this man to say this to a woman who is not (yet) a widow

FL is indifferent for a long time and betrays the ML several times aaaaaaand yet he comes right back begging for her love so... zero self-esteem from this ML but I do love him. 

1, 2, 4, 5

Anti-hero ML. Definitely in lust and determined to make the FL his. 

1, 2, 4, 5

Anti-hero ML who forces his way into the FL's life and apartment. He's very much in lust and has been obsessed with her for a long time. 

1, 2, 4, 5

1, 2, 4, 5

super obsessive and possessive, cw for assault

1, 2, 4, 6

tsundere ML. somehow he manages to get her to move in with him and follows her around basically like a puppy.  a very physically affectionate boyfriend

1, 2, 4, 7

enemies to lovers but the ML is pretty much immediately on the FL's side. he initiates a lot of skinship, whether with the pretense of being her enemy or her husband

1, 3, 4, 7

The whole way through ML is head over heels despite her constantly pushing him away.  Truly wild that he never gave up on her

1, 3, 6, 7

ML has loved FL since childhood and keeps her by his side without revealing his identity to her. he misuses their boss-employee relationship to make her stay with him. 

1, 2, 5, 7

anti-hero ML, intense and devoted in his pursuit but somehow not jealous or possessive about it. he's a really interesting character. 

1, 3, 4, 6

the ML falls waaaaaay before the FL. both him and the SML go to extreme lengths to care for the FL, basically setting up their whole lives in service of her. they’re also both jealous and over-protective

1, 3, 4, 6

ML loves FL since childhood and would easily die to protect her. He's also really petty when jealous, even when he has no claim over the FL. Later on he becomes clingy

1, 3, 4, 7

ML falls quickly and pursues quickly but it takes him a long time to realize that's what's actually happening bc the whole concept of love is so unfamiliar to him

1, 3, 5, 7

ML is SO down bad for the FL. he wants her, he needs her, he will accept any treatment from her pretty much as long as she stays near him. he's a sweetheart. 

1, 3, 6, 7

tons of pining from ML, who's definitely clingy but would do anything for the FL

1, 3, 6, 7

"Get it together, Jang Sin Yu!" LOL the ML has to remind himself constantly not to look so damn desperate in his pursuit of the FL, because seriously, he is desperate

1, 3, 6, 7

ML is supposed to be the definition of an overbearing romantic hero, but he's softer than the average; he reminds me of Tamaki from Ouran HS Host Club

1, 3, 6, 7

the ML is sweet and generally a green flag, but he's really down bad for the FL and refuses to give her up, even when she tries to evade him

1, 4, 5, 7

a truly unique and fascinating ML. he's obsessive and pursues the FL like a dog with a bone, BUT, he doesn't lose sight of his other priorities, which causes a lot of conflict between them

1, 4, 6, 7

super whipped ML. the more the FL hurts him, the more he loves her

1, 4, 6, 7

sweet ML who turns quite possessive and clingy once he's in love

1, 4, 6, 7

tsundere ML. clingy and jealous whenever the FL is around the SML. he makes sure they become neighbors so he can see her often and shows her blatant favoritism at work

2, 4, 5, 7

toxically persistent in pursuing the FL

3, 4, 5, 7

it's insta-love and insta-devotion for this ML, once he meets the FL he dedicates his life to marrying her 

There are several crazy dudes who play a big role

The ML (XW) is 1, 4, 5 while the SML (YL) is  1, 6, 7 and the other SML (ZZ) is 3, 7 so you get the full experience really

1, 2, 6

ML falls in love at first sight with the FL when she rescues him and confesses immediately upon meeting her again. In typical jdrama fashion their relationship progresses VERY fast from there

1, 2, 4

it's basically love at first sight for the ML. he's the type to be helping the FL without her knowledge and always working in the background to bring them together

1, 2, 5

1, 3, 7

super sweet ML who pledges to wait however long it takes for the FL to reciprocate his feelings

1, 4, 5

the ML is quite immoral imo, he is jealous and controlling, using his power to maneuver the FL into a position where she has no choice but to stay with him

1, 4, 5

"if you won't love me, I'll make you hate me" - definite tsun/yandere vibes from this ML, very jealous

1, 4, 5

super toxic ML, be warned. forced marriage

1, 4, 5

emphasis on the possessive part. forced kisses etc. he's also very protective

1, 4, 5

definitely a taboo romance and both the ML and SMLs are toxic wastelands

1, 4, 5

honestly, the ML is an asshole, but he is really down bad for the FL

1, 4, 5

possessive, manipulate, overbearing, very active in keeping potential rivals away from the FL. ML falls long before FL.

both ML and SML fall first and are really cute/funny in their pursuit

1, 4, 7

ML really falls for FL and will not rest until she agrees to be his. Honestly I was expecting him to be more problematic but for the most part he was sweet about it

1, 4, 7

rivals to lovers vibes where the FL genuinely dislikes the ML but he's just annoying her to get her attention

1, 5, 6

ML is an abusive stalker/kidnapper so beware

1, 5, 7

I'd call him toxically obsessively because his pursuit of the MC does kind of involve him ruining the MC's life for a while, but this ML is very very sweet otherwise

1, 5, 7

warning: this is a stalker romance but handled in a surprisingly nuanced and thoughtful way

1, 6, 7

definite yandere.  this man needs therapy not a girlfriend but unfortunately the FL seems to be into that

2, 4, 5

2, 4, 6

once the ML falls in love he is all spice, all the time. someone send this man to horny jail

2, 4, 6

ML falls fast and he's super funny about showing it, he hates that he's falling for the FL even as he's helpless to stop it

one of the most whipped MLs ultimately, the FL could hurt him and he would apologize to her for it haha

2, 4, 7*

FL falls first but ML falls harder

2, 5, 6

ML drives himself crazy thinking he's in love with the FL while she's posing as a man. he wants her real bad
