Ok.. I am also just like you So I will tell you my most beloved drama for this year.  its actually a fantasy drama.but all costumes etc seems so good and close to historical ones. Its Legend of fu yao and you can also watch general and I if you did not watch. I am also looking for new  dramas so I will be following the discussion as well hope you will like them.

I also love historical dramas! I think I have some that you might like:

Chinese 

  • The Story of Ming Lan
  • Princess Weiyoung (Problem for you is the sad ending but everything else is good. If you can't tolerate that just watch up until the 2nd to last episode)
  • Cruel Romance (I personally skipped through episode 30-37 or so if you do watch it but everything other than that is good)
  • Begonia Rouge 
  • The Mystic Nine

Korean 

  • Different Dreams
  • Jewel in the Crown
  • Haechi
  • The Moon Embracing the Sun 
  • Queen for 7 Days
  • The Crowned Clown
  • Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People
  • Gunman in Joseon
  • Love in the Moonlight 
  • The Tale of Nokdu
  • Queen: Love and War
  • The Great Queen Seondeok

If you're okay with a little fantasy involved you can try

  • Shine or Be Mad (Destiny and Fate)
  • The Great Doctor (Time Travel)
  • Dreaming Back to the Qing Dynasty

Lighthearted dramas with little fantasy (sword skills):

  • Under the Power
  • Dr.Cutie

I hope this list is okay as I tried to avoid a lot of fantasy as you didn't put that in what you were looking for. Good luck finding a show!
