Loyal After Death

Aug 31, 2021 10:13 pm

Please recommend dramas like The Untamed and The Legends where: one of the leads (Lead 1) dies and comes back to life years later (or is widely believed to have died for a long period of time), Lead 2 was in love with Lead 1 before Lead 1 died, and Lead 2 either continues to pine for / mourn Lead 1 for years without moving on or refuses to believe Lead 1 is dead and waits for them to return.

Bonus if Lead 2 defends / honours Lead 1's memory or looks after Lead 1's child or legacy after Lead 1's death.

Ancient Love Poetry
Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter: Also fulfills your bonus requirement since the female lead has been taking care of their kids for centuries after the male lead's death.
Tae Pang Korn: Involves multiple reincarnations between the male and female leads but the male lead does wait to meet the female lead again in one of his lives.
