Sound of the Desert (2014)

Both talk about how women can be strong and independent and how the royal family falls in love with the female lead

Yu Jin was raised within the desert tribes of Xiong Nu, although her foster father is a Han. Under certain circumstances, she was forced to flee to Chang'an, the then capital of the Early Han Dynasty, changing her name to Jin Yu along the way. Along her journey, she first meets the calm and kind Mo Xun (aka Jiu Ye, ninth master) and later the handsome, cold general Wei Wu Ji. Jin Yu falls for one of them but is rejected. Will she untangle her love knot? Who will she choose in the end?

Strong female main character, handsome male characters, lovely romance, adventure, beautiful world and clothes, beautiful music. I think the overall warm atmospehere is similar.

The idea of finding that ideal love whom you can sacrifice a lot applies to both. They both have strong female leads, and plenty of twists in the plot to keep you interested.

*Both have strong female characters that fight for their life & beliefs, and not just be passive-reactive to what happens to them: they Make things happen! *Both have an adorable couple with great chemistry. *Both feature military strategies & war. *Both productions have a similar feel/atmosphere to them -though Singing All Along is a bit more epic & has better cgi. *Both are Chinese historical dramas based on real historical characters (at least the general in Sound of the Desert is a real character) and events, with very limited fantasy elements.

All three of the leads are in The Young Warriors. There's a element of the men being generals/soldiers There are some tragic love stories but also happy endings There is some element of magical realism.

Maria, struggling financially, juggles a low-paying day job with nighttime shifts at a cabaret to fund her sister Nana's eye operation.

Different stories but same feel. Similarities between the two are: 1) Smart and Witty FL 2) FL has a different love interest initially 3) ML falls in love first 4) Once the Lead couple get together they are loyal and trust each other 5) Both are slow paced drama 6) Amazing chemistry If you like one, definitely give the other a try.
