《 unproblematic men who deserve rights 》
Not-necessarily flawless but lovable, wholesome beings or those who learned to be such <3
Unproblematic not necessarily as in "nice/friendly": I'm okay with ML's having some tsundere behavior to them and being overly nice doesn't equal being non-toxic tbh. Rather than that it's having characteristics that I like in men like: good-natured, respectful, thoughtful, considerate behavior towards the female lead but also to others etc.
This one ain't for toxic, rapey, self-centered, misogynist or borderline pedo male leads.

- Yoo Ji-ho: I live for self-less, considerate & slightly-melancholic but sweet male leads and Jiho was one of those. While he was too perfect for his own good, he never had that houlier-than-thou attitude.
