romcoms that are about the FLs and not the men
Dont you hate it when the man is the cause of problems for the FL? Who then cannot resolve any of them without him? Dont you want fleshed out female characters in romance dramas? More shows centered around women who are still deserving of romance?
Well i just hate when the women just have the plot happen to them, so i made this list of romance dramas where the girls are truly crucial to the plot.
(More dramas to be added, if you have any others feel free to comment!)

Korean Drama - 2024, 14 episodes

4. Lovely Runner
