Usually I end up finding Chinese historicals with either very bubbly female leads or very strong female leads paired with cold or quiet male leads.

So this time I'm looking for a drama with a more shy quiet female lead. (And if possible a male lead who is more bubbly). 

Any recs?

  • Story of Minglan - It should be the closest to have quiet FL.
  • General's Lady
  • Maiden Holmes
  • One and Only - FL can't speak so, also she is kinda shy too ig.

i cant think of any that i have watched with shy quiet FL x bubbly ML, but my memory of General's Lady is a bubbly FL with a quiet cold male lead who subsequently warms up to the FL.

But atleast she isn't showed wearing mustaches, climbing walls here and there, wandering in the city by genderbending....then One and Only could be your cup of tea but again it doesn't have a bubbly ML.

yea you are right.. those genderbending are quite unbearable to watch. I actually prefer leads who are bubbly, smart, righteous with hearts for the people. Enjoying Who Rules My World currently. Havent yet watched a costume/historical cdrama that has a shy quiet FL..

I'm not sure about it because I don't clearly remember the dynamics between the leads so maybe ^^ Maiden Holmes

Thank you all for the suggestions! :) It indeed is hard to find historicals with shy fl's
