It was something like $50 USD as an advance fare.

I won't stay away from Asian LCCs by any means but just like it's not always cheaper on WN in the USA it isn't always cheaper on an LCC.
I am not necessarily looking for the cheapest option (price is a factor but not the only one for sure). I am more concerned with the most comfortable option in E+ or maybe even J that meets my schedule requirements.
