Secret Identity Drama

Ashe

Looking for dramas in which the lead has a secret identity that they hide from other people. Can be secret agent, or even someone hiding their wealth. Preferably Korean, but I'd definitely look at dramas from other countries. Thanks in advance!

Something like these: 

  • Healer
  • City Hunter
  • Joseon Gunman
  • Time Between Dog and Wolf
  • Bridal Mask

cruel city
sorry I love you

love me if you dare (cdrama)

In addition to the ones already mentioned:

  • Mask | FL takes over the identity of a rich heiress who looked like her.
  • Are you Human too? | ML is an android created to look like his creator's son.
  • Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo | FL is from the future.
  • You Who Came From Another Star | ML is an alien.
  • Black | ML is a grim reaper.
  • Oh my Ghostess | 2FL is a ghost (I'm adding this since you could argue she's actually the FL since she spends more time "on screen" than the other girl).
  • Strong Woman Do Bong Soon | FL has super strength which she keeps a secret from everyone.
