Any drama where the male lead falls for our girl but the girl either sees him as a friend or likes someone else so she rejects him :)

usually in most dramas both the leads fall in love with each other roughly at the same time so it doesn't really matter who confesses first, while i've seen quite a few where the female lead gets rejected :((

  • From five to nine / 5-ji Kara 9-ji Made
  • Weightlifting fairy kim bokjoo
  • Story of Minglan
  • Thats okay its love
  • School 2017
  • I need romance 3
  • Before we get married

Dramas that definitely fit your criteria.

Love Rain - You’ll have to make it through the first 5 episodes about the parents’ generation in the 1970s before you get to the main couple, which fits your criteria.

The King's Woman


With these three I don’t remember well enough to say if ML was rejected, but he definitely falls first, and FL is hesitant to start a relationship with a younger man.

Some dramas that almost fit your criteria.

My Secret Romance - It starts with them having a one night stand. She leaves before he wakes up. He remains hung up on her, while she tries to pretend it never happened. I think that’s kinda like getting rejected.

Second Love - This fits your criteria. ML falls first, FL rejects him. However, their relationship starts very fast, so she doesn’t reject him for more than 1 or 2 episodes.

Last Cinderella - He does get rejected repeatedly in the beginning, but he hadn’t fallen for her at that point (his step-sister had paid him to date her).

Descendants of the Sun - She initially agrees to go out with him, but breaks up with him soon after they start dating, then is resistant to restarting their relationship.

Jark sadtroo soo hua jai she rejects him so much its appaling and can be annoying for some viewers
