Hi there,

I'm looking for kdramas where the bad boy (second male lead mostly) is in love with the female lead but she likes or ends up with the male lead.  Then he (second lead) slowly starts falling for the second female lead that has always liked him. I don't mind if he didn't know about her liking him or rejected her previously. 

If this dynamic applies to the main lead that's fine too as long as he realizes the second girl likes him and starts chasing her instead of the first girl that he liked. 

If it has multiple couples within a friend group that's a plus

That was probably really confusing so let me give you some examples

The second couple from love revolution Kyung woo and min ji 

School 2021 Kang seo young and jung young joon. 

Moorim school wang chi ang and Hwang sun ah

Hopefully that helped lol




 

I'm not a robot - lightly meets the requirements.
or better example would be Put Your Head on My Shoulder, but that is cdrama.

okay I will definitely check it out

  • Itaewon Class - ML isn't really a "bad boy" but he does go to jail and he is tough. Korean drama.
  • The Romance of Tiger and Rose - Chinese drama. Only sort of fits. The ML was planning to marry the FL's sister and use her for political and personal reasons. Circumstances lead him to be with the FL instead, and he falls for her quickly after he comes to the conclusion that she is in love with him.

Dramas where there is a secondary male lead who isn't a bad boy, but he otherwise fits your criteria:

Dramas where the SML is a "bad boy" with very strong feelings for the FL, but she never returns his feelings. By the end of the drama the SML isn't "chasing" the SFL and I wouldn't even say he has romantic interest in her or that he's totally gotten over his feelings for the FL, but he does become very close with the SFL and the SML and SFL support each other emotionally:
