‘Best Boy’ Hong Doo Sik: Here are the Reasons Why Kim Seon Ho’s Character is the Most Non-Toxic Male Lead Ever
Kim Seon Ho generated a lot of buzz with his amazing performance as the handsome and endearing all-rounder Hong Doo Sik in tvN's romantic comedy-drama "Hometown Cha-cha-cha" alongside Shin Min Ah.
Dubbed as the nation's "Good Boy," Kim Seon Ho once again proved himself worthy of the title.
Here are the reasons why Kim Seon Ho's character, Hong Doo Sik, is the most non-toxic male lead ever in the history of Korean dramas.
Hong Doo Sik has immense respect for people.
What makes Hong Doo Sik more attractive than being so gentle and kind to everyone in Gongjin? Not only is he warm to people but he also sees to it that he extends his hands to the people who need his help.
Unlike other male leads who are cold, distant, and cool, Doo Sik is completely the opposite. This is why he is so loved by everyone in Gongjin.
Hong Doo Sik acts maturely and appropriately in any circumstance.
Even when jealous, Doo Sik doesn't lose his rational self. He makes sure he acts accordingly and maturely.
In addition to that, he even built a relationship with Seong Hyun (Lee Sang Yi), Hye Jin's senior and ex-crush. The two are very good friends who get along so well.

Doo Sik and Seong Hyun spend time in the ocean, surfing, and swimming. They also share the same interests in photography, art, and love for good food.
Hong Doo Sik breaks the norms and fragile masculinity.
Despite the huge difference in their societal status, Doo Sik stands strong. Hye Jin, a dentist, and an unemployed, part-time all-rounder. He isn't fazed by how lavish and intricate his girlfriend's lifestyle is.
As a dentist, Hye Jin is equipped with the finest, most durable, and state of the art dental facilities. Of course, she pays herself through extravagant wardrobe and bedazzled herself with luxurious jewels.
In episode 12 of the drama, Hye Jin decided to buy Doo Sik expensive clothes as a part of her bucket list and being a good girlfriend to him. Doo Sik obliges without feeling emasculated.
However, Hye Jin felt bad after she bought a diamond-embedded necklace that cost a fortune. She thought that such a gesture was a turn-off for the man.

Unbeknownst to Hye Jin, Doo Sik busied himself creating a jewelry box for his girlfriend from scratch. According to him, he couldn't afford a sparkly necklace for her just yet so he decided to make a box for all of her jewels.
If any other men, they would feel inferior and lash out. But Doo Sik, level-headed as ever, reassured that Hye Jin spends her money on things she deserves.
Doo Sik is very proud of Hye Jin, who is hard-working and, as what others call it, a true "girl boss."
