Historical Dramas with Satisfying Happy Endings

A lot of the historical dramas I've seen or know of don't have happy endings, most of the really good ones tend to have sad (sometimes satisfying and sad) endings. 

Here are a list of Chinese and Korean historical dramas I've seen with that have a satisfying and happy ending (preferably not just for the main leads, but all of them are happy endings for the main leads). These are not time travel/ cross world dramas (not much fantasy).

    My FAVOURITE ending in a historical (costume) drama.

    The BEST and happiest ending I have ever seen in a Republican Era drama.

    Happy and satisfying ending that is also open. Should have had a season 2, but this season had a good ending.

  • The King in Love

    4. The King in Love

    Korean Drama - 2017, 40 episodes

    I really liked the ending of this drama. It was satisfying and as happy as it could get for a drama where the male lead is a Crown Prince/Emperor. Actually, much happier than usual dramas where the leads are from Royal lineage. 

  • Hold On, My Lady

    5. Hold On, My Lady

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 12 episodes

    8.0

    A happy ending as expected for this type of short, fluffy, romcoms with very little drama.

  • A Girl Like Me

    6. A Girl Like Me

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 40 episodes

    8.0

    A really good ending for ALL the characters you will grow to love.

  • L'affetto reale

    7. L'affetto reale

    Korean Drama - 2021, 20 episodes

    8.0

    Could have been better, but it is as happy and as good as you will get for a drama about an Emperor as the main lead and love interest.

  • Love Like the Galaxy: Part 2

    8. Love Like the Galaxy: Part 2

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 29 episodes

    I only put part 2 here because the story ends on this part, but Part 1 also had a happy ending, but it was open leading to part 2.

  • Ashes of Love

    9. Ashes of Love

    Chinese Drama - 2018, 63 episodes

    9.0

    Definitely a happy ending, a bit confusing  and a really LONG wait for the leads but they get their ending.

  • The Long Ballad

    10. The Long Ballad

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 49 episodes

    9.0
  • Eternal Love

    11. Eternal Love

    Chinese Drama - 2017, 58 episodes

    7.5

    A LOT of angst. Long drama but it never gets boring, leads go through a lot and finally get their happy ending.

  • Eternal Love of Dream

    12. Eternal Love of Dream

    Chinese Drama - 2020, 56 episodes

    8.0
  • Lady & Liar

    13. Lady & Liar

    Chinese Drama - 2015, 46 episodes

    6.5

    Another republican era drama. It has a happy ending, but it dragged a lot and the leads go through hell and back so many times and the villains get a way with more than they should have before getting caught.
