Often times, as K-Drama fans, we see some K-Drama characters as having some or many of the qualities we want in a friend. And perhaps one type that tops that list is non-human characters. Non-human characters are perhaps one of the most exciting and loved by viewers. From their witty sense of humor, dutiful and loyal personalities, charming acts, confidence, visuals, their chaotic and always fun banter, or even their superpowers, these mystical beings not only make many fall in love with them on screen, but also play with the fantastic idea that they would also be good friends.
In light of this, we ran a fun poll asking our global readers to vote for the non-human character they would most like to be friends with. Many votes were cast and we thank you for your participation.
The results are there! Here are the top 3 non-human K-Drama characters fans would love to have as friends, as voted by global fans.
