Thanks for catching that! Yes the male lead does die so I'm not sure why I had it on the list in the first place.
I know this was from a while ago, but I actually qualify the ending as happy, since they 'win' in the end and get some time together. As someone who also dropped a few dramas bc they were sad endings, I would try again on this one- it doesn't feel like a tragedy for the main characters at the end like a sad ending usually does, in my opinion. :)
