Badgirl x Goodboy
FLs that are trouble. Usually problematic, reserved, abrasive, maybe even abusive and MLs that are kind, supportive, loving and soft.
I found that dramas are quite unforgiving of problematic women and even if problematic women exist, their love interest is equal parts bad if not worse than her which makes this list very short. I'll still be including secondary dynamics which are framed as obviously wrong but fit the prompt.
