Top 3 Favorite Male Characters From K-Dramas Released In The 2nd Half Of 2022 As Voted By Global Fans

Man Of Creation / KBS / MBC

2022 was no doubt a very interesting year for K-Dramas. We weren't just given drama series with interesting or gripping storylines but also characters that either made our hearts swell in love or admiration, race in excitement, or simply both feelings combined.

Male leads have been one of the strongest points of every K-Drama, as they essentially present a host of elements that keys the attention of many viewers in a drama series. With their versatile acting talents being one of their strongest charms, these actors' power to bring to life a character that makes us laugh, smile, feel reinvigorated, and sad, and ultimately makes us root endlessly for them to win in any form or goal they have is truly remarkable and a delight to witness.

We took a poll on the 13th of December asking our readers to vote for their favorite male characters from the 2nd half of 2022. A host of votes were cast and we thank you all for your participation.

The results are in! Here are the top 3 favorite male characters in dramas released in the 2nd half of 202 as voted by global fans and based on the data retrieved on the 10th of January 2022.

1. Lee JunHo - "Extraordinary Attorney Woo"

Man Of Creation

Lee JunHo (played by Kang TaeOh) was a character that became a heartthrob for many K-Drama fans. His thoughtful and kind nature didn't just tug at the heartstrings of Woo YoungWoo (played by Park EunBin) but also at viewers as well, who were left expressively swooning in love with every action he made. With 3,673 votes, he ranks 1st on the poll.

2. Jin Jung - "Bad Prosecutor"

KBS

Who doesn't love a leather jacket-wearing and kendo stick-welding warrior for justice who is tirelessly in pursuit of evil and seeks to uproot every trace of it from the world (or well, his community for starters)? Jin Jung (played by EXO’s D.O.) is the kind of prosecutor we all needed and aptly rooted for both in dramas and perhaps in real life too. A mix of skillful fighting skills, smarts, and bravery with a dash of bravado and chaos, Jin Jung was a character that was truly entertaining to watch by many viewers. With 2,962 votes, he ranks 2nd on this poll.

3. Kim JipSa - "May I Help You?"

MBC

Played by Lee JunYoung, Kim JipSa's selflessness and resourcefulness is no doubt one of the key reasons why he is a favorite character of many K-Drama fans. Combined with his silly and witty antics, his strong will, and his pure approach toward various situations, he made us all fall in love with him and his story. With 337 votes, he ranks 3rd on this poll.
