5 Types of Leading Ladies We Love To Watch In Korean Dramas
If you spend most of your time watching several Korean drama episodes, you've probably encountered different types of female protagonists. Much of the public's love for Korean dramas come from these tough, silly, bubbly, warm-hearted female leads, and we couldn't ask for more.
Here are five types of leading ladies we often see and love in Korean dramas.
The tough ones who fight
Some characters included in this category are Jung Saet Byul ("Backstreet Rookie"), Kim Bok Joo ("Weightlifting Fairy"), Do Bong Soon ("Strong Woman Do Bong Soon") and Yoo Hye Jung ("Doctors"). These tough, almost scary and definitely intimidating characters are actually role models.
Despite them often causing commotions or being involved in scuffles, they know how to stand up for themselves and those who can't. They won't stand idle behind a crowd but act on situations they see worth fighting for, and most importantly, they fight for what is right.
The dancing queens
These talented dancers are the envy of all! They're pretty, talented, and deserve the love they receive from the public. Some dancing queens included in this category are Do Hye Ri ("The Best Hit"), Eun Ji ("Sassy Go Go"), and Kang Mi Rae ("My ID Is Gangnam Beauty").
While some people find it very hard to even memorize a short dance, these dancing queens seem like they didn't even break a sweat. They know how to hit the dance floor and they seem to be perfect in every department!
The cry-babies
We're sure this category is supposed to be a compliment. Crying is a hard thing to fake for actors and we genuinely admire such talent. They don't only nail the crying scene but they also look beautiful while bawling their eyes out! Number one in this list is actress Park Shin Hye ("The Heirs" and "Memories From Alhambra") and Cheon Song Yi ("My Love From the Star").
These actresses are one of the most popular, talented, and beautiful women to star in these dramas and we truly see their gifts for it.
The sassy ones
We can't help but be surprised by these actresses' witty remarks! Their comebacks are funny, smart, and it definitely puts their rivals in their place. They're amazing, and of course, give us something to remember when in need of a witty comeback! These amazing female leads include IU ("The Producers"), Lee Yeon Seo ("Angel's Last Mission: LOVE"), Eun Dan Oh ("Extraordinary You"), and Go Moon Young ("It's Okay To Not Be Okay").
If you need to practice and up your wits, make sure to catch these women in their dramas!
The eating machines
We don't only envy them eating a bunch of food that make us water our mouths, but we also envy them for not gaining a single pound even when their mouths are full! These eating machines include female leads: Go Eun Chan ("Coffee Prince"), Kumiho ("My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho"), and Kim Bok Joo ("Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo").
Korean dramas are so much funnier, exciting, impressive, and overall better when these types of leading ladies star these dramas. Check out these categories of amazing leading ladies in more K-series for a fun and awesome time!
