Disguised person
Dramas/movies with some kind of disguised or misplaced person. It can be a woman pretending to be a man, person transported into past, person whose identity was confused with another and so on. Generally speaking, one of the leads has an identity the other lead has no idea about.
A little explanation for the notes - sorting these dramas in more detail can be tricky, since they are often overlapping, but I tried to sort them into following categories:
1) transported person (into past/future/webtoon, simply somewhere he/she doesn't belong, be it a place or time)
2) person misplaced in another body (body swaps, person waking up in wrong body, ghost possessing another's body, ...)
3) female disguised as male
4) hidden identity (someone deliberately hiding the identity from others)
5) confused identity (someone misunderstanding or misinterpreting one's identity - that person didn't hide the identity on purpose, just may have chosen not to clarify it)
There are some minimal requirements for the drama/movie to make it to this list. I excluded everything below the average.
