Definitely not. 'No Escape' is purely fictional. The story and its elements were crafted to provide viewers with an engaging and thrilling experience rather than representing actual happenings.
I recommend "It's the Princess", a short story that was a film and television script. The female protagonist, Ling Sisi, transmigrated into the body of a seriously ill princess in the cold palace and began her journey of palace strife. In the end, she sat on the throne of the empress. I hope you like my recommendation, Mwah ~đŸ˜—
To write a really sad story, start with a character facing a profound loss or heartbreak. Build up the emotions gradually, describe the details of their pain, and show how it affects their life.
