Love, Sacrifices and Death(?)....
I hope this doesn't sound too weird but I've been kind of obsessed with dramas where one of the leads makes a sacrifice for their loved ones.
-
1. Ashes of Love
Chinese Drama - 2018, 63 episodes
Dies during the battle between the two brothers.
Of course, if she actually died I would have caused a revolt but she didn't.
-
2. Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky
Chinese Drama - 2012, 36 episodes
FL sacrifices herself while protecting the male lead.
To be honest I wasn't super into this one.
-
3. Eternal Love
Chinese Drama - 2017, 58 episodes
Male lead dies sealing the big bad.
This is kind sadistic but I secretly loved it when the FL jumped to her 'death'
Of course, this is because I knew they would survive.
-
4. The Legend of Zu Season 2
Chinese Drama - 2018, 48 episodes
The female lead kills herself to prevent the end of the world
though the one that caught my attention was actually Ying Qi, the ML. Throughout the entire series, I admired his dedication to his clansmen and Ying Nan.
I loved watching the exchange between the leads the night before he was going to 'die'. I loved seeing Ying Nan's reaction when she found out he was love is going to die.

5. Noble Aspirations
Chinese Drama - 2016, 58 episodes
She prevents him from dying but blocking an attack for him.
-
6. Lost Love in Times
Chinese Drama - 2017, 56 episodes
She turns back time in order to prevent tragedies and keep the ML safe at the cost of her existence.
-
7. The Journey of Flower
Chinese Drama - 2015, 58 episodes
She dies trying to test his love for her.
-
8. Scarlet Heart
Chinese Drama - 2011, 35 episodes
They love each other but misunderstandings and paranoia eventually tear them apart. She ultimately dies from sickness. It was both satisfying and heart wrenching to see him mourn over her.
-
9. Fighter of the Destiny
Chinese Drama - 2017, 52 episodes
My favourite character for this drama is actually not the leads. My favourite character She was Bai Luo Heng. She chose to become the next goddess of her tribe in order to help the leads. By choosing doing so, she would eventually lose her emotions. She really liked the ML but chose to forget her in order to help him.
-
10. Legend of Yun Xi
Chinese Drama - 2018, 48 episodes
The ML is poisoned. The FL kills herself after learning the cure required blood from her heart in order to procure.
-
11. The Legends

I honestly loved watching this, the male lead would honestly do anything for the FL.
-
12. Martial Universe Season 2

While I can't say this series is good.... something felt off when I was watching this
