Recommendations Please recommend some sweet romance dramas with hot male leads!

I really want to watch more J-dramas, or dramas in general, but I always struggle to finish them if I don’t find the male lead attractive. 😭 I know this might sound like a weird question, but please recommend some sweet romance dramas with hot male leads

Who are your favorite actors? Hotness is subjective.

Yosuke Sugino. I mean, based on looks.

Long Vacation? I'm currently watching it and I find the actors attractive!

I dropped watching that…sadly I didn’t really enjoy the character of the female lead.

Why I dress up for love is a very good watch, I would say. Both the leads are attractive.

Yes on the attractiveness. I watched the series, didn't love it, but the ML and FL are beautiful people.

Not romance, but is this old actor handsome? (The guy in the first scene who runs a flower store)

When I say “hot,” I mean that the male lead needs to be really handsome and tall for me to want to watch the drama. Please recommend some dramas with male leads who have the looks of a K-drama star!

u/smithynz 2d ago

The K-drama ML look is mostly unique to Korea and China, with enormous amounts of makeup, lipstick, etc. I find the look extremely unappealing, but I'm not here to yuck your yum. But if you want someone Japanese, naturally attractive, tall, then maybe search up dramas starring Ryoma Takeuchi.

u/periwinkl18 2d ago

Based on the criteria you've said, also search anything with Sakaguchi Kentaro in it

Some of his romcoms: Beyond Goodbye, Only Just Married

Very bizarre but you do you ig, it’s cause of people like you we get these super made up filtered people in Chinese & Korean dramas now
