Female Leads Who I Just Can't Get Behind or Relate To

I couldn't write a post on Frustrating Male Leads without including a post about equally as frustrating female leads.  We want girls we can relate to, so we can put ourselves in their shoes and get all the feels when they get the man.  But sometimes all we get is a severe desire to shake some sense into the stupid things because they are just plain stupid, frustrating, annoying, and sometimes just bad actresses.


I understand that not everyone can be a good actor, but if they aren't, then why are they getting cast in lead roles?  Seriously, are they related to someone?  Are they a chaebol or an idol?  Sadly, sometimes they are not, and bad acting can make an already weak character unbearable.  So here are some unbearably not relatable female leads.

Male Leads Who Are As Frustrating As Heck

With the end of Warm and Cozy, we have to talk about the fact that Baek Geon Woo was probably one of the most frustrating male leads ever.  I wanted to like him, but couldn't, because he wasn't the same (or nice) for more than two seconds.  He was so freaking frustrating!


Anyways, it made us scream all the time.  It didn't help that The Producers also had two of the most frustrating male leads ever.  I seriously wanted to grab those boys by the shoulders and shake some sense into both of them.  So I made a list of all the most frustrating male leads.  There are so many that are just jerks, and for too long, and its just bah!  So here are the ones that made my list:

57. Heartstrings 넌 내게 반했어 (2011) Korean

Park Shin Hye, Jung Yong Hwa, Song Chang Eui, So Yi Hyun, Kang Min Hyuk, Woori

Drama Rating: 3.5/10     Neck Score: A

This one actually ruined Jung Yong Hwa for me.  I liked him in You Are Beautiful, but this one was so lame.  Boo.  What happened to that chemistry?  How come now that you are actually opposite to Park Shin Hye there is suddenly no chemistry?  It was written very badly.  He obsessed for the teacher for so long and then all the sudden he was over it and chasing the girl.  Nope, that doesn't happen.  Also her character was so awkward and his was so buttheaded that there was no chance for any chemistry to be shown.  The plot was dumb, like most plots centered around a musical are, and really not compelling.  But there were some good points.  CNBLUE basically doing the OST for it (also an OST by Lee Hong Ki- yes!) and Kang Min Hyuk.  He was soooooo adorable in this.  Playing the drummer in Yong Hwa's band (when he is the actual drummer in CNBLUE).  He was the only thing that kept me going in this because Park Shin Hye's acting is awkward in this... too awkward- was it the director? writing? and is a weak singer at best, and Yong Hwa's character was written so badly.  Basically this one was dumb, but Min Hyuk was cute.  Then, because he wormed his way into my heart, I had to go and watch The Heirs later.... Kang Min Hyuk!!!!!!! What did you do to me!?!?!?!?!
