[2022 Year in Review] Heroes who stole my heart
by Dramaddictally
Dramaland heroes are pretty much the reason I got into dramas. In the beginning, it didn’t take much for a male lead to win me over. Pretty face? Check. Obvious eyeliner? Check. Bangs sprayed across the forehead into a helmet? Check! After those criteria were met, all the wrist grabs and one-sided kisses that came along with the romances just seemed like a swoony part of the package. In the world of these heroes, showing care meant yelling and withholding — usually so the female lead could improve her lot in life. And man did I want to see these women win.
Somewhere around five years ago, though, I noticed a massive shift in the way I related to the female characters. There were more dramas to choose from, and more women who reflected autonomy, agency, and nuance in their needs. That is, they reflected more “me.” I became less interested in the escapist element of their lives and latched onto their realism instead. However, it took me some time to fully grasp just how much the men had changed alongside them — not just in reaction to the new heroines, but in the core of how they were written.
The new generation of men weren’t the hair-pulling type, and only sometimes were they the default protectors. They were as suave and debonaire as ever but their charms were located in updated aspects of their behavior. They could be curious and communicative, as well as supportive and unassuming. Not only did I find them swoonier than before, they began to cast an unforgiving shadow on my once-loved heroes of dramas past. These days, I find myself less able to watch a certain style of classic romance, interested instead in the complexities of contemporary characters.
With every new year comes a better crop and 2022 delivered some seriously heart-stopping heroes. My favorites expressed their feelings (with words), stepped back when it was appropriate, learned about their love interests, and even made long-distance relationships work — all while packin’ the pretty (which, let’s be honest, isn’t off the list of reasons they stole my heart).
Yoo Bobby
Yumi’s Cells 2
Bobby stole the heart right out of my chest and still will not give it back. Part of it has to do with Jinyoung’s reserved portrayal — his subtle facial expressions that sometimes break into eye smiles or tears — but a lot of it has to do with how much Bobby supports Yumi in becoming the person she wants to be. He encourages her to write, is respectful of her time (always treating her writing like a “real” job), and is beside her in all the moments that it doesn’t work out — finally becoming her steadfast reader when it does.
His total trust in Yumi swept me off my feet, whether it was about her friendship with her ex (Woong — a heart stealer from last year) or her need to stay in Seoul when he moves to Jeju. I love how he’s confident, while being easy-going and forthright (that scene where he calls Yumi a liar after she says she didn’t miss him is in my personal file of all-time swooniest moments). But, of course, everything I love about Bobby also led to his downfall. His desire to never burden Yumi meant he hid parts of himself, to the detriment of the relationship. For me, his initial flawlessness made it all the more crushing, and my heart fluttered all the more for it.
Choi Woong
Our Beloved Summer
If I had to pick a favorite drama this year, it would be this one. The problems and personalities of both leads are so fully fleshed out that I couldn’t help but feel for them — and I adore the way they feel for each other. Woong is such a thoughtful, self-reflexive, vulnerable character — impossibly in love with Yeon-soo — and always actively trying to understand her side of things.
Of all the heart-wrenching scenes (and there are many), my favorite is when Yeon-soo enters Woong’s room and finds him sleeping on the floor. She sits beside him and her hand falls close to his. Woong moves his hand, just slightly, to rest on top of hers, holding her hand. Yeon-soo pulls away and leaves the room, and we see that Woong was not really asleep. It’s such a subtle moment, but manages to capture how deeply he still feels for her, even five years after their breakup. Maybe it’s because Choi Woo-shik can turn any role into some kind of masterpiece, but even now (almost a year later) I still feel an ache in my chest for Woong.
Han Ji-yool
Once Upon a Small Town
Oh, the big city vet who arrives to a small town not knowing a local lady will be his undoing. I was so impressed with Ji-yool’s honesty and ability to communicate that I fell for him pretty much instantly. I said in my weecaps that this was a relatively drama-free drama (the kind I like best) and it’s in large part because when Ji-yool realizes his feelings, he falters only briefly before getting the message to the important parties: the heroine and his interceding ex.
There’s a moment when he tells his ex-girlfriend that it’s over between them — independent of the female lead’s feelings for him — because he knows how he feels about her (there’s no going back). It’s almost shocking in its directness, but it’s conveyed with the warmth and care I’d already come to expect from a character who spends his time doctoring up baby animals. Later, after a period of mature long distance with the female lead, Ji-yool decides to live full-time in the countryside, rather than trying to pull her to the city. It makes sense for this couple, and it turned me to jelly for Ji-yool.
Lee Jun-ho
Extraordinary Attorney Woo
Despite sharing a name with the most heart-stealing man on the planet, Jun-ho took some time to grow on me. I think it’s because romance is not the centerpiece of this drama and the relationship moves at a pace and scale that makes sense for the female lead (which is exactly what makes it so lovely). What I ended up loving most about Jun-ho is his careful attention to Young-woo’s boundaries. He knows when to shut up (which is a lot of the time) and when to speak up for himself. And when he does speak up, he makes Young-woo aware of his own boundaries in a way that’s revelatory — he presents a new way of doing things that she hasn’t considered (rather than getting defensive).
As a couple, these two grow together — Jun-ho learning about autism and being sensitive to Young-woo’s perspective, and Young-woo realizing how her actions often hurt Jun-ho. I had a serious soft spot for Kang Tae-oh after his role in Run On, but here he operates with such metered confidence and unabashed nerdiness that I cannot freakin’ wait to see what he does next.
John Jang
Love is for Suckers
All right, I know, this one’s cheating because he’s not the hero of the drama, but he stole my heart nonetheless so I’m throwing it in as a bonus. John Jang is the most surprising of all the heart thieves on this list because he was supposed to be a side character. But, as anyone who saw the show knows, this chef and his lovely webtoon artist sweetheart ripped the attention away from the leads so severely, it will go down in K-drama history.
Why do I love Chef John? Because in the beginning the audience was meant to despise him for his egotism and superficiality. He totally redeems himself, though, by showing his attentive, thoughtful, serious side to the lady he likes — who doesn’t fit society’s definition of acceptable beauty. He then throws his own curated celebrity image to the wind in order to marry said lady. Not to mention, he’s a chef — he makes her a bunch of food and seems to actually enjoy watching her eat it (and that’s enough to win me over any day).

I am so happy to see Chef John Jang on this list because he also stole my heart and was totally swoon-worthy. He was a typical drama jerk in the beginning but man his growth over the course of the show was amazing. I go back to that show only to watch his scenes with his lady love. Yoo Bobby was another one I absolutely fell for. I was sad that he couldn't open up more since that caused problems, but he still stole my heart (and broke it with his tears).

If we can have the side character can we have the real second lead in Love in contract Gwang-Nam? He was the female lead’s house husband just as Sangwoo was the female lead’s work husband in Love is for suckers. Sangwoo was so good the male lead set him up with his sister to make sure he was off the scene and to ensure his sister was well looked after. These two side characters stole the show for me and could easily have their own spin off shows.

Yes! Gwangnam should be on this list. He was such a palate cleanser that I stuck with that drama just to see him. While I would have loved for the character to have had more screen time, I appreciated so much that he was portrayed as a funny, loving, charming, kind, reliable and a mostly joyous character who was loveable and deserved to be loved. A love-line for him would have been a radical move but alas, the drama didn’t have the courage to do that.

I can’t believe I forgot my favourite Taejoon from Love All, play. He was the one who gave Taeyang her joy back when she was accepting being treated as if she was a leper and got the team to take her in. He stuck by her when he knew about the incident with his sister and accepted the split even though it broke him. He was literally walking with a serious injury and didn’t feel it because his emotional pain was so overwhelming.

Oh Chef John, in a drama with terrible character arcs and worse plot lines, he and Ji Wan shined. This is a good list. Woong is also fantastic. He was so lovely, that is the best word to describe him. As for Jun Ho, to fall in love and fight for that love despite all the odds.🥰 Ji Yool was nice enough, but the other 3 are head and shoulders above the rest. I didn't watch Yumi's cells so no comment on that.

Bobby: I don't think she could have become a writer without him. He's the one who always believed in her and helped her. So Jeju's girl and the accident plots were so far from his character... It was disapointing how they ended it...
Woong : He was really unique. But for more the half the drama I thought it was ok if they didn't date at the end...
Ji-Yool : he was really the opposite of the usual ML, it was refreshing. He didn't act as a jerk city boy, he didn't try to steal the FL everytime she was with the SML, etc.
Jun-Ho : he was really cute and patient.
Chef John : I was happy to see how serious he was with cooking and how he really liked it.

Lee Junho was tops for me.
In the end Chef John Truly does belong on this list - for growing and for recognizing the true with of his lady in defiance of convention. Of course, I think that we all fell in love with her so that made his heart's choice all the more poignant: Somehow, in the end he got it exactly right after all.
I know that as phrased the question implies a male "hero" but what about their female counterparts? Women can be heroic in love as well.

Is ‘hero’ all encompassing or only referring to men? I would like to define it broadly. Let’s mention female characters who were remarkable in small roles that left huge footprints. Just a couple:
Park Jiwan in ‘Love is for suckers’ for reasons we all know and love. May more interesting and multi-dimensional female characters are included in future.
Choi Suyeon in ‘Extraordinary Attorney Woo’ because she was prickly but smart, competent, loyal and kind where it mattered.
Which ones are yours??

I haven't finished Under the Queen's Umbrella, but the queen - what a force of nature!!
In 2521 - Seungwan, the class president who ran a radio show to encourage students and address the problems facing young students. She touched a lot of lives. And the way she (and her awesome mom who proudly supported her daughter) stood up against school violence and refused to apologize for it and then quitting school in protest was supremely heroic.

I haven't watched any of these yet, but I Love that Extraordinary Attorney Woo's Lee Jun Ho sharing name with THE Lee Jun Ho always comes up in comments and reviews 😄
I fell for Jinyoung in Devil Judge. It is not easy to keep pace with Ji Sung when he is being THAT dramatically over the top, but Jinyoung not only held his own scene after scene, he sometimes even surpassed JS. And I think he was the perfect foil (or match?) for JS because of his understated but fierce acting style.

I totally forgot about Our Beloved Summer! How could I forget Woong and that very odd romance? I enjoyed that show and then it completely passed out of my memory, so I didn't even give myself a bean for it.
Agree fully with your thoughts on male heroes. Let's see more MLs who listen and respect and speak honestly about their feelings. Way swoonier than any wrist-grab.

I've been watching in other directions this year, so the only one of these I saw was Extraordinary Attorney. It's good to know from your essay that male characters are maturing and evolving, because some of the male leads in some of the Korean drama classics just annoyed me extremely (e.g. in Kim Sam Soon). The romance in Extraordinary Attorney was enjoyable and notable for all the reasons you describe, and was convincing, due to his patience and sensitivity. Although I am aware of romances between people with Asperger's Disorder, Young Woo appeared to me to have high-functioning autism, and therefore was even more impaired relationally. I haven't heard about how such a relationship would develop in real life. But I wasn't fully convinced, because I needed a reason why he fell in love with her. If he was just a very nice guy, he would have been a good friend to her only. I think he needed something in his background that would also make him resonate with her fragility and emotional pain. Maybe S2 (which is vaguely being hinted at) will give us more background.

As Extraordinary Attorney Woo explains with great sensitivity, the term Asperger's Syndrome has fallen out of favor with good reason. Among autistic people in the US, even "high functioning" is a dubious label.
In my life, there are young adults who present as neurotypical, or at least not autistic, who found someone and got married. Also some who present as autistic (like, forgetting to inflect their voices and being more obvious about not looking at people's faces much) who found someone to love and marry. (Also at least one who left his wife like total jerk, but that's a different story.)
It was one of the things I liked about the show: Young Woo is a total dork with her special interests and sensory issues, but she's also kind and funny and pretty, and very insightful. This mirrors some of my experience of real life. There are always some people whose autistic characteristic quirks are annoying and inconvenient, but also part of the whole package of a lovable person. (Honestly, is that not what neurotypical people are like, too?) The reason he fell in love with her is that she's really cute. If the assignment here was hero more broadly than love interest, Woo Young is the hero of her own story. But as a love interest, Jun Ho is great.

Thank you for your comments. My understanding is that "Asperger's Disorder" was removed from DSM-V because Asperger was a Nazi collaborator. But it was kept in ICD-11 because that group of people were significantly different from people with classic autism, including "high-functioning autism" i.e. people with classic autism and with normal or high intelligence (which I think would fit Young-Woo). I'm not sure how your comment addresses my query, nor the distinction I am making here. I am fully aware that many people with milder forms of autism have couple relationships, marriages, and become parents. Yes, Young-Woo is cute, but she also is unusual and requires understanding and commitment to connect with. English couples therapist Robyn Skinner observes that (lasting) couples are of similar levels of mental health, and usually share similar underlying personality dynamics and anxieties, which is what I think was lacking in this drama.

December 29, 2022 at 9:01 AM
I was intrigued by your assertion that Asperger's is still a diagnosis in the ICD-11, but when I googled I found that this is incorrect. The ICD has also folded that diagnosis into autism--they don't break it out because apparently practitioners no longer consider it to be a separate syndrome. (Which is why they didn't just rename it.)
The authors of this show don't accept the idea that there must be something wrong with Jun Ho that he likes Young Woo. That's why they don't explore his motivations more than they do. Their relationship isn't presented as ideal or easy, even though it's often played for laughs and is very cute and sweet on the screen.
We don't know at the end of the show whether these two will have a lasting, healthy relationship. That's because this drama is not a romantic comedy and Jun Ho isn't the hero. Woo Young is the hero, and her quest is to find a way to be herself and be an adult at the same time. Being able to date a really great person like Jun Ho and resolve problems in a dating relationship is enough of a resolution of her conflicts.

Gwang Nam, yes, and jang Uk for sure. Chef John, definitely.
But also...
Yeom Chang Hee in Liberation Notes - the "non-hero" hero... I was head over heels obsessed with him by the end of the series. He's not flashy-pretty (but come on, he *is* Lee Min Ki so he's definitely not un-attractive), or particularly smart - although he does have some wisdom buried under all that endearing blunder. And we get to watch him go through some pretty extensive existential turmoil - not just his frustration with life in general, but learning to deal with the loss of his mom and its aftermath, and coming to grips with the truth of his station in life and how he maneuvers through that. He does all of this without being mean or unrelentingly angry, and I loved him for it.

While I am a fairly open and communicative person and does not pretend to be perfect when in a relationship, I am quite like Babby when it comes to my beliefs in loyalty and commitment (There is nothing wrong with being attracted to someone else as long as you don't follow through with cheating. Attraction is automatic, cheating is a choice) . So when he wondered how things would be had yumi believed in him the way he believed in her, I broke to thousand little pieces because I understood.
But the other part of me who understands trauma and trauma response understood yumi 100% as well. So I'm perfect torn in half by this drama.
