These two have similar vibes in terms of tragic love story and a couple stuck in politics and war. All the settings, beautiful and colorful cinematography, talented casts make even better. If you loved Goodbye My Princess, you will also love One and Only.

The shows give me similar vibes because of the somewhat taboo or forbidden love. Also, the pain and angst. The cp in OnO doesn't argue like in the Red Sleeve, but the apparent love but not admitting it at first is the same.

One and only is a prequel of Forever and Ever. Watch one and only first in order to understand the deep love of main characters.

- Male lead was a honorable war general in the past life in a historical era, both of them were so loyal, powerful and highly respected, later lead their King/Emperor to have suspicions of their loyalty due to the evil people's manipulation. Both MLs were being killed with treason. (Early episodes in Goblin and One and Only drama)
- In the next life in a modern era, the leads are reincarnated as same people (Forever and Ever drama). Male lead is immortal, so he lives a long and lonely life alone (Goblin).

Both MLs are royal generals who position is viewed as a threat by the court, despite him having no interest in the throne, and the court tries to prevent him from marrying or having children. TSPL ends happily, OAO tragically.

It is a costume detective suspense romance drama, set in the Wanli years of the Ming Dynasty, telling the story of the beautiful man County Ling Panyue and the terrorist servant Yang Caiwei in the process of solving a strange case, from mutual disgust to mutual love and love.

"Queen for Seven Days" revolves around the tragic love story of Queen Dan Kyung and King Jung Jong during the Joseon Dynasty, focusing on the challenges they faced due to political strife, betrayal, and tragic circumstances. It's set in historical Korea and portrays the struggles of characters within the monarchy.
It's similar to One and Only in the sense that they're both historical dramas. They both have tragic love stories as a result of a fight for the throne. Both princes had their own army and group of followers who were loyal to them. Just like in One and Only, it portrays the struggles of the people during a period of monarchy or tyranny so to say. In both dramas the kings and the princes are in a love triangle with the female leads. Both dramas have a theme of sacrifice, as the main characters have to give up their happiness and freedom for the sake of their country and people.

The female leads in these dramas couldn't be more different. However, both dramas have master/disciple dynamics, and both have extremely slow-burn torturous romances where the tension cuts like a knife and you can feel the pain in their eyes and your heart feels like it's being squeezed. And that's what matters!
The male leads are also slightly similar in that they're both princes who're sick af at martial arts, but also they're shy and awkward with no idea how to do a romance.

Both stars Allen as a General & God of War and tells heart-wrenching, painful love stories. Zhoushen Chen in One & Only and Lu Yan in Thousand Years for You have surprising resemblances in characters & costumes, in addition to the fact that they're both generals & hailed as God of War.
Recommended by Titania
Both of these shows include star crossed lovers who just couldn't end of together. They also both had tragic endings.
