The Grand Prince is exactly what I'm looking for as an example. Also liked The Kings Woman for this reason. I'm basically looking for a royal or above the FL in status that is obsessed with her and will use force or whatever to get her {and she doesn't like him back} historically only! :) 

Loved:

  • The Kings woman
  • The Grand Prince
  • Empress Ki
  • 'Till the end of moon

Heard of:

- red sleeve but I dunno if that'l scratch the itch

- Mr queen, I don't like gender reversals like that

- trying queen for 7 days

Prefer Korean but will do Chinese too -- they're jus so long! Lol

I think the king in Love in The Moonlight, the 5th prince in Moon Lovers, the king in The Moon That Embraces The Sun, and Emperor Qianlong in Story of Yanxi Palace fit obsessed royal.

The younger brother of The Princess Royal and Cao Cao's son in Secrets of Three Kingdoms also fit. But they're not ML.

The emperor in Jewel in The Palace also seems to match. But he's not the ML.

I tried out the moon that embraces the sun and he was just sad to me haha. Not obsessive or toxic or the kind of vibe I was hoping for. I just felt bad for everyone. Any other recs that are a little bit shorter than the Chinese ones?

Ah, that kind of obsessed.

Maybe Moon Lovers, ML threatened to kill his brother because his brother wants to marry FL.

Or ML in Queen Seon Deok (this one is long), he wants both FL and the throne so he's-half-forced-rebelling but you may think he's pitiful.

I may not watch enough Korean historical dramas. I can't think of others.
