GREY historical dramas
"Grey" historical dramas that have a mixture of light and tragic moments, they aren't as purely light and fluffy as some historical dramas, but they are not pure tragedies. They may or may not have a happy ending, but they have a tone that is overall a mix between doom and hopefulness. "White" and "black" dramas refer to very fluffy and very dark dramas, respectively.
