70

So many dramas are about romance. So many dramas are about fairy tale stories of love. So many dramas are about great guys who are supposed to make you melt right away when taking one look at them. Or taking many looks at them and realising how amazing they are and falling in love with them then. So, without much further ado, these are my top three Prince Charmings from Dramaland.

THIRD PLACE

Han Jung Woo from Missing You

Perhaps Yeo Jin Goo had a lot to do with it, perhaps he didn't. Either way, Han Jung Woo was someone who kept loving the same girl for 14 years and not only he did not lose the hope of Soo Yeon being alive, but even more, he kept searching for her and kept loving her for all those 14 years, without even considering hooking up with someone else. I know in real life it would be pathetic, but in that's what makes it so Prince-Charming-like and my inner romantic fangirl melt. Even though he ran away the first time, he was only 15, he simply didn't know better. What's more, they wouldn't had the chance to survive if they tried to escape together. What even more amazed me, was that even while being constantly rejected by the grown up Soo Yeon, he kept on trying. And eventually it paid off.



SECOND PLACE

Hanazawa Rui from Hana Yori Dango

Probably everyone reading this would go "what the heck, second place only? He's the ultimate Prince Charming..." I thought so too until I saw my number 1. But about him a bit later.

I don't remember him [Hanazawa Rui, that is] in detail, since I watched the drama quite a long time ago, but overall he simply strikes me as someone calm yet persistent. Of course, terribly handsome too, he's the most handsome out of my three princes, hands down. I think what bribed me the most in him was his gentleness and friendship towards Makino [in my head I still say her name as Maaaa-ki-no! as he did].



FIRST PLACE

Han Kang from 49 Days

He has my best feelings, I guess. Not because he kept letting Song Yi Kyung do whatever she wanted because he had feelings for her, no. But because when he figured out she was actually Ji Hyun, he was clever enough to  keep silent about it [not even letting her know that he knows her secret], and he was so loyal to her, assisting her in everything, no further questions asked. Aigoo, I feel butterflies inside my chest even thinking about it now~

To be honest, these Prince Charmings don't even really have serious rivals in the category, so it makes a great top three - easy choices ;) And a short while ago I realised that all their names start with Han :D I know majority of you would leave a comment like "Rui is still the best" or even "Are you mad? Rui is the best!", so I'll ask in advance: leave those to yourselves. I realise that Rui still has majority of drama fangirl hearts, but remember, this is my own personal list and I simply thought Han Kang lost a lot for love.
