Can anyone recommend me a k-drama/j-drama that has the ML/ FL  falling for their bodyguard? I’ve watched the K2 which I hated and Strong woman Do bong soon which I loved. Any others?

A Love to Kill - This was one of my very first Korean dramas, and I loved it... until the ending (take note of the "Tragedy" label).  Back when I watched it I didn't know it was a Tragedy, and it's one of the main reasons why I try to avoid them now.  But if you enjoy gut-wrenching, heart-wrenching, horrendously sad endings with ugly crying (rivers of tears and snot), then I'd recommend this one.

  • 99 days with a super star - jdrama with korean FL
  • Spy Myungwol - FL was the bodyguard who is actually a spy
  • My princess - ML was not an official bodyguard more of the guy who needs to keep the princess guarded for his family reputation sake
  • Come and Hug Me - ML is a cop but one of his missions was to guard the FL who is targeted by his family 
  • Snow Queen - ML was actually hired as chauffer/driver but he does some protecting and guarding work because he is a former boxer
  • Man to Man - ML takes up bodyguard role to superstar k-actor but he is actually a spy. The romance was a little stale with the FL who is younger sister/manager to the superstar
  • The crown princess - thai drama with ML is special ops securoty service, and FL is crown princess. Must watch if you are looking for bodyguard story.
