1. Luk Mai Klai Ton
Thai Drama - 2000, 20 episodes
Chanon portrayed by Andrew Gregson took my breath away already from the first episode. His dark brooding looks with a cold smile that never went to his eyes-until he gets romantically involved with the woman he first hated,Rasa.He is so tortured,raw and torn but still was the head of his family and a rock everyone depended on. He loves with all his selfless soul even when everyone around him called him heartless and blackhearted.

2. Tree of Heaven
Korean Drama - 2006, 10 episodes
Yoon Suh portrayed by Lee Wan is a leading hero that gives so much emotional impact on the watcher. His raw loneliness and unique gestures combined with how he falls headlessly in love with his step-sister and gave everything he had to her until the very end.He has such a beautiful soul that it hurt to watch him.

4:th Prince Wang So portrayed by Lee Joon Gi is a man you can never forget. Not only is he scarred on his face,but his heart and soul is also terribly broken until he finds himself intrigued by Hae Soo who behaves in a way he have never seen before.He is a Anti-hero with a very ruthless streak in him,also brave enough to fight for love despite fear of rejection.

6. Ra Rerng Fai

Chakrit portrayed by Ken Theeradeth really comes off as a devious sociopath, where he leaves Yada`s sister on their wedding day and watches the whole hell he creates with a cold satisfaction. He has lived for nothing but revenge for 20 years but comes undone when he falls for the headstrong Yada,his enemy`s daughter.
