Yeah, that seems like a pretty comprehensive list, haha.  You could try some drama specials, though.
More female-centric:
The Crying Woman
Linger

Historical, but not necessarily female-centric:
Swine Escape
Red Moon
Witch/Devil Rider

Also Hometown Legends, if you're into historical horror/supernatural?  Kind of hit or miss, but some of the eps are pretty good.

Have you watched Prince of Lan Ling?

The Return of Iljimae is lovely. Damo is female-centered and a lot of people love it but there were things in the writing that personally drove me nuts. Emperor of the Sea has interesting female characters, but it's another one where the writing is problematic, especially towards the end.

Lol that's a lot of sageuks.... How about a new kdrama called Ruler: Master of the Mask. It started recently so not many episodes are out. Also, there are a couple more that will be airing within 2-3 weeks: My Sassy Girl and also Queen for Seven Days. I believe those two will have a strong female lead presence. There's also another upcoming one called The King Loves, but its not airing until July. Oh and there's also Jang Ok Jung, Living By Love -- this one's completed and is centered around the female lead.
