    For period dramas, I only recommend these two. The female lead doesn't go to the countryside, doesn't work in the black market, her life isn't particularly tough, and she doesn't participate in poverty alleviation programs! In short—it's awesome! [Shy][shy][shy]

    The first book features a female protagonist who is a scientific research genius who travels back to the 1970s.

The second book features a female protagonist who is a wealthy heiress who uses the information gaps of the era to start a business and amass wealth. As a business leader, she attracts investment for the country and is eventually selected as a diplomat.
