Favorite male characters

Chen Kun

Chinês

The incomparable Ning Yi (Rise of Phoenixes) 

Tan Jian Ci

Chinês

Xiang Liu, in “Lost you forever” is a great character. We have still to watch him in the second part of the drama but Im sure it will be even more dramatic and well-played. The artist/detective Shen Yi in “Under Your Skin”  is also fascinating.

Zhang Xin Cheng

Chinês

Pei Su in “Justice after dark” is cold, mysterious and a little scary in the beginning and sadly we never get to see the full character development of this unique young man since the drama was cut short. But I love him to death! One of the most fascinating and complex characters I‘ve seen in Chinese drama.  

Wang Xing Yue

Chinês

Xiao Heng in The Double was a big favorite from the second he entered the screen to the last. Liu Zi Xing (One and Only) and Zhong Xiwu (Scent of Time) is also interesting guys. Wang Xingyue has a unique talent to portray emotional characters without overplaying, the emotions always everywhere on his face. 

Gong Jun

Chinês

As Wen Ke Xing in “Word of Honor”.  The charm, the beauty, the murderous gaze. Such a complex man that’s very nicely portrayed. Gong Jun IS Wen Kexing forever and ever until his hair turns grey. Unforgettable.

Wang Duo

Chinês

Gong Zi/Prince Ning in “Bloody Romace” is a complex and interesting character. You really don’t know whether to hate him or love him and that’s the thing that makes me feel he is my favorite. He is also perfectly portrayed by Wang Duo that really shows all facial expressions humanly possible during the series. Sometimes I thought that the script didn’t do Gong Zi justice, but I love the ending when he suddenly realizes what his love for, and fixation to Wan Mei made him loose.

Zheng Ye Cheng

Chinês

The arrogant and yet protective Fu Yi Jin in “Love of Thousand years” or the daring  Zhang Xian He in ”Stealth Walker”? 

I chose Shen Yan from “My Sassy Princess”. Decisive, capable, honest, loving and adorable at the same time. I like his way of getting straight to the point if things.

Zhang Ruo Yun

Chinês

Fan Xian  (Joy of Life) is still evolving on screen and I hope for a third season soon. 

Neo Hou

Chinês

Wang Yue in “I am nobody”  is such a great character. His laidback style combined with unrivaled martial arts is so funny. He is portrayed so nice that I forget who the actor is. Impressive!

Zhang Ling He

Chinês

As Xie Wei in Kunning Palace. 

Luo Yun Xi

Chinês

Tan Tai Jin is portrayed so well that I can't help but totally love this character. Amazing character development that is perfectly executed by Luo Yun Xi. 

Wang Yi Bo

Chinês

As Lan Wan Ji in “The Untamed”.  The nonchalant coldness combined with the absolute devotion that grows in him paints such a nice picture. His fight for justice for his beloved is unforgettable.

Ren Jia Lun

Chinês

Li Yi in “Under the Power” has great character development and I love exactly everything he does in this series. My favorite part is the crooked smiles he makes behind Yuan Jin Xias back when he reluctantly starts to like her and her behavior.

Lee Dong Wook

Sul-coreano

Grim Reaper in Guardian. Manages to be both tormented and funny. Has an interesting character arc.

Bi Wen Jun

Chinês

Yue Le Xuan in “A Class of her own” is a complex character. He seems care free and shallow in the beginning but soon we learn both about his dark secrets that he has hidden well, as well as about his own ambitions. In the end he gambles with his own reputation and success in order to be able to help his friends and live an honest life.

Lee Jae Wook

Sul-coreano

Jang Uk in Alchemy of Souls. There is something to very appealing with the way he wields his power. The choices he makes and the suffering he goes through really shapes him.

Li Yun Rui

Chinês

In the beginning the famous scholar Yuan Shen (Love like the Galaxy) is cocky and all to full ofhimself. As a viewer I nearly hated him. Later the unrequited love for the dramas FL makes him humble and he becomes a true friend to Niao Niao, willing to do anything for her. In the end I rooted for him almost more than the ML. 

Gong Yoo

Sul-coreano

Kim Shin in Goblin.

Ryan Cheng

Chinês

Love Gong Shangyue from “My journey to you”, his character development and his looks. He has firm beliefs that he stands by and we find out the reasons for his behavior which makes him more likeable.

Yin Zheng

Chinês

As the unforgettable opera singer with martial arts skills Shang Xi Rui in “Winter Begonia”.

Li Xin Ze

Chinês

Tang Lian in “The Blood of Youth”. His devotion and villingness to sacrifice everything makes my heart bleed in an unbearable way.  

Xu Kai

Chinês

As Lu Si Cheng in “Falling into your smile.

Tong Meng Shi

Chinês

As the blind “uncle“ Wu Zhu in “Joy of Life”. He alone makes the show worth a rewatch.

Yagi Yusei

Japonês

As the tormented Kiyoi Sou in Utsukushii Kare.

Kim Soo Hyun

Sul-coreano

The alien Do Min Joon is a lovely ML who after the usual hate-live period becomes so devoted to his FL that he literally travels through both time and the universe to be with her. 

Lee Jun Ho

Sul-coreano

“King the Land”  has many great characters, but for me Gu Won stands out as one of the most devoted ML I have ever seen. Love it when the ML falls in love first and pines after his woman.
