Interesting dynamics
A list of my favourite dynamics be it because they're unique, work really well or due to chemistry.
-
1. Horror Stories of Tang Dynasty
Chinese Drama - 2022, 36 episodes
Great chemistry between the two leads, good bromance
bordering on romance more often than not -
2. Bad Guy
Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes
10/10 team dynamics. Everyone bounced off of each other so hecking good
-
3. O Romance do Tigre e da Rosa
Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes
Specifically Yuanyuan x Mu. Really liked their vibe and how they're both gentle and kind to each other and somewhat soft-spoken.
-
4. A Médica Legista Imperial
Chinese Drama - 2021, 36 episodes
I love pretty much every dynamic of the main cast. ML has a great dynamic with his older brother (protective older brother ftw) and his relationship with FL is adorable, both nerds who are quiet and work well together.
-
5. Na Direção do Amor
Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes
Yet again unusual main relationship of similar attracts. Both leads are more similar than contrasting and they're chill with each other
-
6. The Blue Whisper: Part 1
Chinese Drama - 2022, 22 episodes
Okay, the reversal of the character dynamics for the most part. We got cold warrior x naive prince, malewife x girlboss and young 'forward' girl x older sophisticated guy. What more can one ask for?
-
7. O Amor de Ho Goo
Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes
Honestly, mostly because of Hogu's family. I really enjoyed them and how they interacted with one another, especially his parents.
-
8. A Lenda de Zhuohua
Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes
One of the most mature romances I've seen. ALSO extremely interesting family and friendship dynamics!! (including: Uncle (ML)/Nephew (SML), Thorough M/W friendship, Great Aunt/Niece, ML and his totally not sons)
-
9. Kuragehime
Japanese Drama - 2018, 10 episodes
Extroverted man 'infiltrating' an introverted all-women's group and befriending them. Quite refreshing and endearing.
-
10. Viva a Princesa
Chinese Drama - 2023, 20 episodes
Amazing and unique friendship dynamic (FFM) with some serious poly vibes.
FLs were protective of ML -
11. Vigilante
Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes
How unhinged everyone is about ML. Like, a reporter who believes herself his creator, an obsessed rich fan who sees him as both an idol and his property and a cop who sees him like a charity-case little brother. It was SO fun
-
12. Reino
Korean Drama - 2019, 6 episodes
Just in general. I liked how ML as the crown prince interacted with those around him in the face of an apocalypse.
-
13. O Segredo dos Três Reinos
Chinese Drama - 2018, 54 episodes
Tragic women x I-can-fix-her men GALORE. All the dynamics between pretty much all character were good. Super refreshing!
-
14. Big Mouth: De Vigarista a Vingador
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
The fricking prison gang ML gets, lmaaaoo
-
15. Kentaro Hiyama: O Homem Que Engravidou
Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes
An unusual pairing who aren't dating but also aren't no-dating. Refreshing to see the woman be the douche and man be the emotionally invested one
-
16. Uma Odisséia de Escritores; Assassino em Vermelho
Chinese Movie - 2021
SML, the little girl and SML's literal armour being a trio is far too iconic not to include.
-
17. A Lenda de Hao Lan
Chinese Drama - 2019, 62 episodes
A lot of interesting dynamics in this drama.
- Main trio, very much giving should've-been-a-throuple.
- ML and his jailer/bodyguard. Like, omg man is so protective of him in like this parental kind of way, I'm obsessed
- King and Queen of Zhao. She's so effortlessly in-charge and he goes along with it. They definitely behave more like longtime friends rather than a couple but a slay nevertheless
- Also special mention to the very brief interactions between the Queen of Qin and her secret lover
-
19. Mestre das Lâminas
Japanese Drama - 2022, 9 episodes
Interesting found family-like dynamics. Especially liked the bromance between ML and SML
-
20. Magic Grocery Store
Chinese Drama - 2021, 16 episodes
Something about this trio was super endearing. The three idiots with the naive and strong FL, the hot-tempered but sweet ML and the smart and kind SML. Just cutee
-
21. Hong Dou Sheng Nan Guo
Chinese Drama - 2024, 24 episodes
Full of unusual and fun dynamics! FL and her guard and how he helps and ships the two leads. ML and his concubine buddies trying to help him get the empress' attention. 10/10
-
22. The Odd Family: Zombie On Sale
Korean Movie - 2019
Interesting family dynamic with the little sister living with her older brother and his wife and then the other older brother joining in and the father living with them. It was refreshing
-
23. O Engenhoso
Chinese Drama - 2023, 36 episodes

-
24. Xiao Ting Tai
Chinese Drama - 2024, 24 episodes
ML and FL are ACTUALLY allies first and stood on fairly equal footing.
Also ML is pretending to be the younger brother of FL's father (she knows) thus making him a very young uncle and I kinda liked that dynamic xD
-
25. Às Cegas
Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes
Interesting brothers relationship and also FL and ML have an interesting dynamic where they fully trust each other despite being strangers and she seems to be one of the few people that can get through to him (but in a gentle dom kinda way, idk it makes sense to me)
-
26. O Convidado
Korean Drama - 2018, 16 episodes
The whole haunted-by-the-same-thing-so-we're-drawn-together dynamic!! Also FL saving her two totally-not boyfriends xD
Bonus points for ML's banger friendship with his shaman bestie
-
