How to read your K‑Drama Lead Energy Score

Think of this score as a playful way to answer one question: if your life was a K‑drama, how strongly would the story frame you as the lead? Some people naturally give “main character” energy—confident posture, clear opinions, dramatic timing, and the ability to look iconic while holding an iced coffee. Others have powerful supporting-lead vibes: reliable, emotionally intelligent, funny in group chats, and essential to the plot. And then there are the legendary leads: the ones the camera follows even when they’re just walking down the hallway.

Your result includes two parts: the 0–100 score and the lead archetype. The score is the “how intense is your lead aura?” number. The archetype is the “what kind of drama would you be in?” label—like Sunshine Lead (warm and brave), Cold‑Outside Warm‑Heart (classic slow‑burn), or Chaebol CEO Aura (power + soft spot).

• 90–100: Legendary lead. The OST starts when you enter a room. People remember your outfits and your quotes.
• 75–89: Main lead energy. You drive the plot. Friends would absolutely ship you with someone.
• 55–74: Strong supporting lead. You’re the emotional anchor—smart, funny, and secretly the audience favorite.
• 35–54: Cozy ensemble vibe. You’re part of the core cast. The story would be calmer… but still iconic.
• 0–34: Cameo energy (affectionate). You pop in, steal a scene, then disappear into a montage with snacks.

• Post your score with: “Guess my archetype before I reveal it.”
• Run it for friends and do a “casting list” in the comments.
• Try the same name with different tropes to see how your “genre” changes.
• Screenshot the score + archetype and use it as a story sticker.

The (fun) scoring formula — breakdown

This tool is intentionally not scientific. It’s a structured “vibe calculator” designed to feel consistent and shareable. Under the hood, it combines a deterministic name hash with your trope choices. You can think of it like a recipe: a base + spices + a finishing sauce.

Your name is converted into a numeric seed using a lightweight hashing function (a standard trick in simple games). That seed is then mapped into a 0–25 range. This is what makes the result stable: same name + same options = same output.

Your selected lead vibe nudges the score. For example, Chaebol and Genius tend to add more “commanding” energy, while Soft lead can lower the “intensity” but increase the “healing romance” archetype.

Tropes change the genre. Enemies to Lovers usually raises intensity, while Healing romance boosts warmth. The tool treats tropes as flavor multipliers.

“Main-character aura,” “OST volume,” “rain crying,” wardrobe montage, and love triangle probability each contribute a few points. Higher values generally raise the lead score, but too much triangle chaos can also shift the archetype toward “messy plotline icon.”

All parts are added together, then the total is clamped to the 0–100 scale. That means you’ll always get a clean, screenshot-friendly score.

Behind the scenes (simple & transparent)

When you press Check My Lead Energy, the calculator:

• Validates that your name is filled in (so results aren’t blank).
• Builds a seed from your name + option values.
• Generates a stable score using that seed and the weighting rules described above.
• Chooses an archetype based on the score and the “vibe/trope” combo.
• Creates 3 scene prompts (short lines you can paste into captions).
• Updates the meter so the score is visual and screenshot-friendly.

If you hit Save Result, the score is stored in localStorage on your current device. That’s why you can refresh and still see your saved checks—without making an account.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this based on real personality psychology?

  No. It’s a fun, trope-based “vibe score” designed for entertainment and sharing. It’s structured (so it feels consistent), but it’s not a diagnostic tool.

• Why does my friend get a higher score than me?

  Scores depend on the name seed and the chosen options. If you want a more “main lead” result, increase aura, wardrobe montage, and OST volume—or choose a more intense trope like Enemies to Lovers.

• Will changing spelling change the result?

  Yes. Different letters = different seed = different score. Try nicknames, stage names, or the name you use online. That’s part of the replay value.

• Does this store my data?

  The calculation runs in your browser. If you click Save Result, it stores only the score + label locally on this device. Nothing is automatically uploaded.

• Can I use this for reels / TikTok captions?

  Yes—this is built for virality. Screenshot the score, then use the generated scene prompts as text overlays or captions. Add a call-to-action like “Duet this with your score.”
