If you just finished Skate Into Love and thought it was amazing, you have to take a look at My Unicorn Girl. I really enjoyed to watch another drama about sports on ice! So excited!!!
Female lead cross dressing.
Rich man and poor woman.
Main leads hated each other at first then slowly romance grows

Both had the same vibes, the girl disguised as boy, cute but awkward at the same time. The boy actually discovered that she was a girl but pretend didn't know and will always protect her when she wasn't looking. I really love both stories, so funny and refreshing.
Be careful! It contains spoilers
In both dramas:
(main similarities)
- FL hides her identity by pretending to be a boy
- ML quickly realizes FL is a girl (in AMA in 5 Episode, in MUG in 3 Episode). He helps her hide her secret without telling her he already knows she is a girl. He is her secret knight
- FL and ML go to university/academy together, they have to train hard to stay there. They also live together in the dorm as roomates
- It's from hate - to friendship - to love - kind of story
- ML is rich and well-known and incredibly handsome (my personal opinion)
- ML is very persistent to get FL. He doesn't care what other people will think about him being in a relationship with another "man" (it's even more impressive in AMA - the action of the drama takes place in the early of XX century in military academy)
- ML is cute, smart, cunning, cheeky, confident, but when he falls in love he would do anything for FL. His personality, however, doesn't change, even at the end - he is still adorable, he shows his love, but he doesn't become "a henpecked man" :)
- FL has a female friend whom she knew before the drama started
- FL and ML are friends. ML confesses/realizes his feelings first
- Besides ML another FL's male friend discovers her secret and falls in love with her (in AMA I would say it is even love triangle)
- ML has a female admirer, who wants to be with him
- ML quickly falls for FL but teases her a lot. He is jealous of other men
- There is a group of friends to which FL and ML belong
- ML's parent does not consent to his relationship (in MUG later his mother approves)
- Most characters find out about FL's identity at the end - in AMA in Episode 44, in MUG in Episode 23
- Similar shots/scenes appear: sit-ups scene, washing ML's stuff, dancing scene, rescue scene, winter scenery
- The chemistry between the main couple is great
- Besides main couple there are many other interesting characters
- FL and ML have their happy end :)
(main differences)
- AMA is much longer - 48 Episodes, MUG - 24 Episodes
- The topic in MUG is quite light. AMA is about the war (mostly second part), so it's heavier. In AMA there are some deaths, so I remember I cried a bit
- There are more kisses in MUG (mostly peck kisses but still), whereas in AMA you have to search it on youtube to see deleted scenes containing peck kisses
- In MUG there are lots of absurd accidents (typical for most cdramas)
- If you want to see MOSTLY cute romance - AMA is not for you, while MUG is perfect :)
- In AMA ML learns that FL is a woman because he sees her as a woman, in MUG due to accident
- In AMA ML helps FL a lot more than ML in MUG, he is her protector almost from the beginning, and she doesn't even know about some things he does for her
- In AMA FL and ML become a couple in (probably, it's not clear) Episode 41, in MUG in Episode 22. In AMA FL realizes her feelings really late, in MUG much earlier
- In AMA ML confesses his feelings in Episode 31, in MUG in Episode 20, but for us - viewers - it is clear MLs falls for FLs almost at the beginning
- In AMA FL finds out that ML knows about her identity in Episode 14, in MUG really late - bacause in Episode 20
- Genre: AMA is comedy/romance/action/historical drama (action takes place in the XX century), MUG - comedy/romance drama (action takes place nowadays)
Overall, I enjoyed both. However, MUG is more to watch for fun, for lazy Saturday and Sunday, while AMA is more, I would say, ambitious, demanding. It depends what you prefer to see :)
My scores:
AMA 9/10
MUG 8,5/10
Wow, that was long. I hope it'll be helpful for somebody :)
