Korean dramas have given us unique storylines and amazing actors. Certain characters, however, stay with you even after the show ends. You are impressed by them, you want to meet them, or you want to have a conversation. We have curated a list of 10 fictional Korean characters that we wish we could meet in real life.
1. Do Bong Soon
A tiny woman with a force of the universe. Strong Woman Do Bong Soon indeed impressed everyone with her adorable personality and her superhuman strength. We would love to meet her in real life and see her use her power against bad people. She is so badass!
2. Lee Yoon
Lee Yoon from The Last Empress is what you call a boy next door with a sweet and carefree personality; he impresses everyone. He doesn't hold himself back due to his noble lineage and lives his life on his own terms. He is humble and down-to-earth. Chivalry isn't dead!
3. Na Won Deuk
Played by Exo's D.O., this character from 100 Day My Prince, who has lost his memory and ends up in a marriage alliance with a peasant girl when he is royalty, is a total sweetheart. He is gentle, protective, and overall, a great human being. It doesn't help that he has a way with words and can make you swoon over his good looks and even better words. We want a date with Na Won Deuk!
4. Jang Sun Kyul
This character is from Clean with Passion for Now. He falls in love with a germaphobe, and we all know how difficult that is. But he makes it look effortless. He loves her and is willing to go through all the hardships to be with her. He wants her to get out of her comfort zone and believe that she can be loved as well. The effort he puts into his love story is honestly beautiful. Who would not want to meet such a sweet man in real life!
5. Choi Gun
For Now, Choi Gun's character from Clean with Passion is the second lead of the drama. Have you heard of the second lead syndrome? Well, he gives you that syndrome. He is reserved, quiet, and caring. He is straightforward and says what he feels. Unlike the main lead, he believes in putting everything out and is honest with his feelings. We can only appreciate such a sorted and mature individual. He will be great to meet in real life!
6. Kang Bok Soo
Kang Bok Soo, played by Yoo Seug Ho, makes our hearts flutter. The only thing better than a high school romance is a good high school romance. My Strange Hero is just that. He comes with a plan to his high school, a plan of revenge. He is goofy, flirtatious, and irresistible. You can not resist him in any way!
7. Kim Mi-So
What's wrong with Secretary Kim is a beautiful portrayal of a workaholic woman. We meet Kim Mi-so, a perfect secretary who is available for her boss 24/7. However, we fell in love with her no-nonsense, straightforward personality. She gets what she wants. She is efficient and has made herself from the ground. An inspiring character, she also impresses us with her cute looks and manners. We would love to meet her once!
8. Kim Shin
Who does not want to meet the hopeless lover and a God! Kim Shin from Goblin is a perfect example of seeing the humanity in a god. His life has been a tough ride, to say the least, yet he makes us love him with his silly jabs and adorable personality. The way he hopelessly falls in love, it's just too much!
9. Ji Eun-Tak
The lead from Goblin, she is a strong, powerful character. She loses so many people and lives a difficult life with her aunt and yet doesn't lose her shine. She keeps smiling through the pain. She is also a complete goofball who is too adorable! We would love to meet her and have a conversation with her!
10. Do Kyung Seok
Do Kyung Seok is a character from My ID Is Gangnam Beauty, played by ASTROS' Cha Eun Woo. He is a unique personality, very different from the average K-drama boys. First, he has a gift of understanding a person by reading them. He never makes assumptions about people and only acts on proof. His love is based on the individual's personality and not looks. So, you have to work extra hard to gain his love. In all the true words, he is the absolute gentleman!
