Blossom

Blossom:
Rebirth - Revenge drama where FL was cheated on and murdered by previous husband, smart FL dealing with a messy family drama.
General ML with a powerful, deadly aura, grudge with royal family, grudge with his father. A desire to avenge his uncle's defamation and death (like Xiao Heng's desire to avenge his father's death).

Both Marry My Husband (K-drama) and Blossom (C-drama) revolve around themes of time travel, betrayal, and second chances, where the female leads use their newfound knowledge to change their fates. In Marry My Husband, Kang Ji-won is murdered by her cheating husband and best friend, only to wake up 10 years in the past. With a chance to rewrite her life, she seeks revenge and justice. Similarly, Blossom follows Dou Zhao, who tragically dies but reincarnates into her younger self, allowing her to prevent the betrayals that once destroyed her. Both leads develop slow-burn romances with protective and loyal male characters who stand by their sides. Also, their main way of getting revenge is the same which is by making the people who betray them by get married. (The main difference between is that Marry My Husband is set in modern-day Seoul, while Blossom is set in historical China)

Both are historical Chinese dramas, grounded in actual history (not xianxia), and are female-centric. Each follows a female lead navigating political struggles, trying to survive in a complex, power-driven world.

Both have intelligent leads, ladies are talented and capable, and gents have military power.
Both are VERY bingeable.
