Gong Yoo as Choi Hang Gyul is an iconic character, and it’s all because of how much he loves Go Eun Chan (Yoon Eun Hye). He’s open-minded about love, and even though he initially struggles with his feelings for Eun Chan, he eventually accepts them, no matter her gender. His willingness to challenge society’s norms and embrace love in its truest form makes him a standout male lead, showing acceptance and inclusivity.
