I'm looking for a Cdrama but don't mind if these details lead to a Kdrama or a Jdrama. A drama where the FL falls for the ML first. The FL saves the ML in any way. For example, she saves him when he is in a dark stage of his life or he is depressed. Like the FL is the ML's hope.  Or the FL supports the ML who has a disability or illness.

  • You Are My Glory - FL supports the ML at a time when he is considering abandoning his dream career for a position in an industry that offers more financial stability. 
  • W - Literally saves his life.
  • Jealousy Incarnate - Supports the ML who has an illness.
  • Gu Family Book - FL supports the ML when everyone else turns against him.
  • To the Beautiful You - ML is an athlete. The FL supports him at time where he is struggling with his performance.
  • Itaewon Class - The ML is an underdog with strong principles and big plans / a big dream to take on / beat a corrupt behemoth. The FL supports his dream and helps him pursue it.

I think these might also fit but it's been a while since I've watched them so I'm not 100% sure:

Flower of Evil They are married in the beginning but there are flashbacks that show us 

Khaen Rak Salap Chata She starts helping him before she falls for him. She saves him multiple times and is by his side at his lowest point. 

Que Sera, Sera but this ML is a piece of work LOL

Oh My Ghost He's a sort of mentor, plus her boss so he helps more, but she does save his reputation at one very important event at the beginning. 

Kill me heal me

It's ok that's love

Both are kdramas, ML suffers from psychological illness and FL helps them to get cured.

Where stars land (kdrama)

Devilish joy(kdrama)

Lost romance (Taiwanese)

In these dramas ML has problems, FL doesn't help directly but become ML's support in some way.

Love crossed cdrama i dropped in middle but it has something similar initial episodes.

Prince of Lanling (cdrama) - the FL saved the ML's horse, helped the ML in the rescue of his right hand man, and saved him not once but twice. It is more than a romance drama; it's on imperial politics, kinship and friendship as well. It is a drama that touched my heart.
