Time travel/second chance dramas focused on male lead?

So I devour time travel rebirth revenge type dramas, Marry My Husband, revenge love, blossom, the double ( although she didn't time travel she did in a sense die and come back for revenge), there are a number of these (especially historical/costume types) but I'm noticing most are centered around the female lead and it's her coming back and the male becomes her support and I'm curious if there are an male centric ones? Can be modern or historical.

Similar shows I've seen are Reset (bl) (freaking loved it, although less revenge more second chance and solving his murder) twinkling watermelon (less revenge or second chance, but still great time travel fix it type story), Tale of the nine tailed season 2 (loved him getting to give his brother a better life).

Cdrama and kdrama recommendations

Hi, I'm new to cdramas and kdramas. I enjoyed watching be yourself, summit of our youth, unlock my boss and agency

I am looking for more dramas in similar themes (which are tech, business and marketing, career growth and dramas based on introvert). Please add your suggestions.

Pretend bedding?? (HELP ME FIND THIS 😭)

Alright so I saw this reel on Instagram a while ago and I’ve been thinking about it ever since - but of course, I didn’t save it 🤡

It looked like a historical Asian drama (pretty sure it was a C-drama because my feed was deep in that phase but it could be any Asian drama tbh). The scene had this couple who were basically pretending to “do it” on the bed because people were spying on them from outside.

But the funniest part— The FMC is trying to shake the bed all dramatically, and the MMC just goes like, “that’s not how it works” and starts doing it slower/more realistically 😭??

It was SO random, awkward, and weirdly cute.

I thought it might be Pursuit Of Jade, but I checked and nope. Not the same scene.

So yeah—does anyone know what drama this is from?? Please tell me I didn’t hallucinate this 😭

Also while we’re here, Drop recs with similar vibes please:

- arranged/contract marriage

- funny scenes

- chaotic/funny banter

- slow burn but entertaining plot

The Mirage feels like a strange mix of costume drama, mystery, and sci-fi

The easiest way I can describe The Mirage is: a costume drama on the surface, but with mystery and sci-fi quietly running underneath.

What I liked is that it doesn’t just use those elements as decoration. The longer it goes, the more they start feeling connected, which made it much more interesting to me than I expected.

If Sarah “chose” the detective, why does she end up reacting instead of staying ahead?
