As the K-Drama industry goes global, the male lead image has evolved and has been diversified, which appealed to a wide range of viewers.

Though the nice guy image was one of the most popular, it's now getting repetitive. Among others, the bad boy who's a softie deep inside is undoubtedly making everyone's heart thump faster! Here are five bad boys who are impossible not to love!

Lee Dong Wook

First on the list is Lee Dong Wook who once played the role of a grim reaper. In "Goblin," he stole the hearts of many with his charisma.

Though he's technically a villain in the series, his appeal and naive nature as a grim reaper in the mortal world didn't stop fans from falling for him.

Lee Je Hoon

This 2023, Lee Je Hoon returns to prime time with the new season of "Taxi Driver"! In the work, he goes undercover as a taxi driver to expose a woman's misdeeds.

He flirts with her to make his plan work, exploiting any information from her. Unfortunately, she falls for him.

When he reveals his true identity, he unintentionally breaks the villain's heart. What a real bad boy (who does bad things for the greater good)!


Song Joong Ki

The actor's portrayal of Vincenzo Cassano was iconic! Although he's an Italian mafia, many women closed their eyes and ignored his biggest red flag!

Although he's without a doubt a troublesome mafia, he's still the lesser evil among his rivals. In addition to that, he helps the people of Geumga Plaza!

Lee Min Ho

Lee Min Ho has played the rich and spoiled heir image one too many times since he made his acting debut. However, in 2017, he transformed into a professional con artist!

He takes on different identities to deceive people and exploit their money but what makes him unique is that he only takes advantage of the people who made banks illegally.

Apart from helping the poor become rich, he also gives bad people valuable life lessons. How odd!

Song Kang

Last but not the least is Song Kang who will take you to a place to show you butterflies! In 2021, Song Kang made everyone squeal for his portrayal of Park Jae Eon, a handsome college student who doesn't believe in love.

Despite being a womanizer, he still shows sympathy and affection to the woman he actually likes. He also loves helping people, proving that he has a great heart and not just a pretty face!
