The DramaNext guide
What Mistaking the CEO for a Model is about
Two years ago, a wild heiress spent a drunken night with a reserved billionaire, mistook him for an escort, and tossed cash in his face. He never forgot the humiliation. When an arranged marriage arises between their families, he replaces his brother at the altar to claim his revenge. But behind closed doors, cold spite soon clashes with an undeniable urge to protect her.
Mistaking the CEO for a Model is a 45-episode vertical short drama from iDrama, built around revenge, CEO romance and billionaire.
Is it worth watching?
The draw here is the slow build to a payback that lands hard. On top of that: the power gap between the leads and who ends up holding the cards.
The whole series takes roughly 1–2 hours, so it's an easy binge.
