role reversal shows

ratings will depend on how much role reversal the show has! i will be looking at their overall dynamic and how they treat each other instead of the factors affecting them. (let's say for example, the fl is stern and assertive while the ml is more cute and passive, but they act traditionally towards each other, i will either give these a lower rating in the rr aspect or refrain from adding these onto the list.)

(8-10 is very, 5-7 is moderate, 1-4 is slight) happy watching! <3

  • The Other Half Of Me and You

    1. The Other Half Of Me and You

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 32 episodes

    10/10 | super rr, they literally just switched the traditional gender roles.

  • Jiang Jun Zai Xia

    2. Jiang Jun Zai Xia

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 23 episodes

    10/10 | this is SO rr. masculine fl x feminine ml, the scenes between them are also really rr and the fl takes charge a lot. the fl is a cool general while the ml is her sickly husband who acts like a damsel in distress.

    i love this.

  • Moral Sense

    3. Moral Sense

    Korean Movie - 2022

    10/10 | this is a bdsm movie so i think it's a given why the rating would be high. i still want to mention this though as femdom movies are really rare. their dynamic out of bdsm is also still rr, the fl is more calm and composed while the ml is puppy-like.

  • Otomen

    4. Otomen

    Japanese Drama - 2009, 12 episodes

    9.8/10 | the ml is basically a malewife, although he can hold his own in a fight, the fl protects him when he needs it. they're so cute together :((

  • Hotel del Luna

    5. Hotel del Luna

    Korean Drama - 2019, 16 episodes

    9.5/10 | oh my god. where do i start? the fl is really dominant, she's badass, and protects him a lot. compared to the ml who is more cute-ish? he's younger than her as well. REVERSE KABEDON!! super rare in kdramas

    i really need to rewatch this

  • Are You Ready? Hey You Girl!

    6. Are You Ready? Hey You Girl!

    Japanese Movie - 2018

    8/10 | cold woman and warm man dynamic, he even cooks for her!! fl works a job and is popular in their school, while the ml is also popular but he's surprisingly awkward (loser-like perhaps), reverse kabedon although it was used to intimidate rather than a romantic moment. 

    the reason this isn't as high is because of the last scene.

  • Love Revolution

    7. Love Revolution

    Korean Drama - 2020, 30 episodes

    8/10 | i watched this way back during its release so i don't remember much. the ml is cute, with puppy-like energy. the fl is cold and calm.

    also a cool detail i want to mention is how the ml's name basically means princess in english, while the fl's name means prince. i thought that was really cute lol.

  • Takane no Hana-san

    8. Takane no Hana-san

    Japanese Drama - 2021, 12 episodes

    8/10 | the fl is really good at her job and is stern, while the ml is more cute and is bad at this job. wish we saw more moments between them though where the rr dynamic is more obvious.

  • Flower of Evil

    9. Flower of Evil

    Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

    7.5/10 | the ml stays at home most of the time and takes care of their kid, while the fl is a cool police officer. she also basically pursues him as seen in their flashbacks.

  • Ho Goo's Love

    10. Ho Goo's Love

    Korean Drama - 2015, 16 episodes

    7/10 | barely remembered anything about this kdrama but the fl is more mature and the ml is cuter. 

  • Hot Young Bloods

    11. Hot Young Bloods

    Korean Movie - 2014

    7/10 | although the premise itself is very rr, we don't get as much romance than expected. most scenes between the fl and ml are rr, an exception is the last scene.

    the fl is really assertive with him, while the ml is kind of scared of her? not in the way she's scaring him off intentionally but she's of course a gang leader. they've known each other way back though.

  • Do Bong Soon, une force de la nature

    12. Do Bong Soon, une force de la nature

    Korean Drama - 2017, 16 episodes

    7/10 | the fl is really strong, and the ml really likes it. the ml is pretty much a damsel in distress, and he gets carried a few times in the series. nothing else is rr for me that's why the rating isn't as high.

  • Triad Princess

    13. Triad Princess

    Taiwanese Drama - 2019, 6 episodes

    7/10 | if this had more episodes that showcased their relationship, i would definitely rate this higher. the fl is badass and has a lot of fight scenes, while the ml is more cute.

  • Kimi Wa Petto

    14. Kimi Wa Petto

    Japanese Drama - 2017, 16 episodes

    6.8/10 | the fl is an older successful woman while the ml is a ballet dancer. she keeps him as his pet. i wouldn't say this is super rr though, the fl acts more motherly rather than dominant. (i dropped this one mid-way because of the second ml so i might have missed a few important details)

  • Ore no Kawaii wa Mosugu Shohi Kigen!?

    15. Ore no Kawaii wa Mosugu Shohi Kigen!?

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 9 episodes

    6/10 | cute ml x cold fl

  • Run On

    16. Run On

    Korean Drama - 2020, 16 episodes

    5/10 (main couple), 10/10 (second couple) | the main couple are pretty equal to each other but i'd say the ml is a bit of a himbo, and the fl is more career oriented. the real deal is with the second couple though, the second ml is cries a lot and the second fl is cold-hearted.

  • Wildflower

    17. Wildflower

    Filipino Drama - 2017, 257 episodes

    5/10 | this is a revenge drama and not romance focused, however, i would like to give this a mention. the fl is really dominant and badass, and the ml can hold his own but he's more of her sidekick. she also lays her head on his lap once. although, i can't really say you should watch this if you want pure romance, hence the rating. actors are awesome though.

  • Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo

    18. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo

    Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes

    4/10 | barely rr, the fl is strong and the guy is himbo-ish? and cute but that's about it.

  • Our Beloved Summer

    19. Our Beloved Summer

    Korean Drama - 2021, 16 episodes

    4/10 | asides from the mature fl and the cute ml dynamic, there's not much. awesome show though.
