There are many reasons as to why K-Dramas are so good. Part of it is due to good casting, great acting, beautiful sceneries, and thoughtful directing and production. But, a good K-Drama wouldn't be one if there wasn't good chemistry between the actors and actresses. Not only between the main couple but just in general between the members of the cast. Because what makes a scene look authentic to the viewer is mostly the chemistry, in addition to the acting. K-Drama directors are well aware of that, and it is why they put special care into choosing the actors and actresses who will play in their drama.

In the history of K-Drama, there are some shows that are considered the classics, the iconic K-Dramas almost everyone knows about. And in those iconic dramas, there are also iconic actors and duos that nobody can ever forget about. But even in less popular dramas, it isn't rare to find hidden gems as well. Whatever genre of K-Drama it might be, many of them have that one duo of male actors all fans of the series will remember. May they be brothers, best friends, or simple work colleagues, they became an iconic duo of the show, and fans got attached to them in no time. However, some of them have never played together again, and fans deeply miss them. Here are 6 iconic duo of K-Drama male actors that we'd love to see together on screen one more time.

Note: this is not a ranking

1. Gong Yoo & Lee DongWook from "Goblin"

Who hasn't heard about this unforgettable duo yet? Gong Yoo and Lee DongWook's chemistry in Goblin was incredibly good, and funny. The comic friendship between a great reaper and a goblin that no one expected was played perfectly by those two actors. Towards the end of the drama, there are even some very emotional moments showing the great friendship between the two characters. It is such a shame that the two actors did not get to act in another project together, because it would surely go viral once again.

2. Park JiHoon & Choi HyunWook from "Weak Hero Class 1"

Here is another duo K-Drama lovers are not ready to forget. Not only was their acting on point and intense, but their chemistry as friends in this show was super sweet. Park JiHoon's character was that cold-hearted kid who didn't want any friends, and Choi HyunWook's character was the perfect opposite. But their difference made their friendship complementary and by the end of the drama, they were almost like best friends. With the upcoming second season of the drama, we hope to get a chance to see them together on-screen one more time.

3. ASTRO's Cha EunWoo & Hwang InYoup from "True Beauty"

This insane duo got all viewers of the series hooked on those two characters. While they're rivals in love, Cha EunWoo and Hwang InYoup's characters in "True Beauty" share incredible chemistry, and their unmatched visuals are just like a cherry on top. Eventually, viewers also became rivals, some being on Cha EunWoo's side, and others on Hwang InYoup's side, it was a cute and friendly competition about who would end up with the main female character. And apart from the drama, the two actors showed a genuine friendship, so we can only hope that they'll appear on screen together one more time.

4. Park SeoJun & Ji Sung from "Kill Me Heal Me"

This was quite an unexpected, yet unforgettable duo seen in K-Drama. The plot of "Kill Me Heal Me" includes both serious topics and a great amount of comic scenes, but the funniest moments have to be those between Park SeoJun and Ji Sung. While Ji Sung's character is suffering from identity disorder, he once meets Park SeoJun when his 'teenage girl' personality is awake, creating the most hilarious interactions between the two characters. For those who haven't seen this drama, we wouldn't want to spoil it, but you should hurry to watch it because you'll burst into laughter one too many times.

5. Kim SooHyun & Oh JungSe from "It's Okay To Not Be Okay"

This out-of-the-box drama touched upon several themes along the drama, one being the autism spectrum. The character played by Oh JungSe is on the autism spectrum and has a hard time taking care of himself at the beginning of the drama. It is his brother, played by Kim SooHyun, who takes care of him. Even if this is a different type of iconic duo, their chemistry and acting were so good they felt very authentic and realistic. And because of this, they can be considered an iconic duo. Those two actors have proved themselves in this drama, but we'd love to see them again together in a whole different context as well.

6. Park HyunSik & SHINee's MinHo from "Hwarang"

Let's make a jump back in time with this one-of-a-kind duo from "Hwarang". Of course, we could have mentioned Park SeoJun as he is the main character of the show, but among some secondary main characters, there is another duo we shouldn't forget about and it's Park HyunSik and Minho. While they don't have as many scenes together as the two main characters, each interaction between those two is so funny and refreshing, that we can only want more. MinHo is less active as an actor those days, but we can still dream about having them together on set once again, maybe as main characters next time!

There might be other duos that come to your mind because each person's preference is different, but those 6 duos were among our favorite ones that we'd like to see act together again. Which one is your personal favorite?
