Ho Goo's Adorably Relatable and Heavy Romcom

I love Dragon so much!  And this show is surprisingly good!  I honestly was going to watch it no matter what, even if it turned out to be super cheesy, but it's not.  It's surprisingly heavy and profound.  Not like it's super profound and stuff, but a whole lot more profound than I was expecting.  That subject matter though.


And despite the whole word play with Ho Goo and Fool's love, Ho Goo is a well rounded character with a lot of decision and spunk.  Basically I was sold in the first episode, and am now having a hard time waiting for next week's episodes.  I hate waiting a week.

With a Side of Second Male Lead Syndrome

As Love Myself or You comes to an end, I felt I just had to pay homage to one of my favorite second male leads of all time, Hao Wei.  There was a time (for like 2 seconds) that I hated him and wanted him to go away, because let's be honest I really want Kai Qi and Ah Jie to be together like 100%.  I love Ah Jie so much that there is no way I would want him to lose... but then Hao Wei just made me love him so much!  I really just want him for myself.  He's like the perfect man!  Hot and nerdy, just how I like them.  And the nicest guy on the planet... yep.


There are so many second male leads that are the same.  Usually I am not voting for them to get the girl necessarily (because I am usually on the side of the male lead in that respect) but I do end up loving the second male lead so much that I wish I could date him in real life.

We all know this is called second male lead syndrome, so in honor of Hao Wei, I have created my list of second male leads who need to be my boyfriend like right now.

27. Flower Boy Ramen Shop 꽃미남 라면가게 (2011) Korean

Jung Il Woo, Lee Chung Ah, Lee Ki Woo

Drama Rating: 8/10      Neck Score: A+

The first in a series of Flower Boy shows that all have the same basic standard.  Four extremely hot flower boys surrounding one normal girl, for whatever reason.  This one is still the best of all of them, but the others are good too.  Also, this one is the best if you happen to be a noona (which I am), since this is a noona romance.  I tried to get my little sister to watch it and she just couldn't get into it in the same way.  Eun Bi (Lee Chung Ah) is trying to be a teacher, but she runs into Cha Chi Soo (Jung Il Woo) who is a high school student, and she ends up having to take over her father's ramen shop along with Pillar (Lee Ki Woo) who was trained by her father and given the shop and her (so that he calls her his wife) and three hot high school boys who respectively call her noona, teacher, and honey.  So well written, so funny, so delightful.
