Another is 'The Tale of Genji' from Japan. Genji has many complex love affairs. His relationships are often filled with unrequited love, political intrigue, and the restrictions of the social hierarchy, which ultimately lead to a lot of tragic outcomes in his love life.
One of the famous Asian tragic love stories is 'Romeo and Juliet in China' - 'The Butterfly Lovers'. Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai fall in love but are separated by society's norms.

They are lovers from different realms, the mortal and the celestial. They can only meet once a year on the Magpie Bridge, which is a very sad situation of love being restricted by fate.
