What My Ex Faked Being Disabled, So I Faked Being Poor is about
A clever doctor wants a baby with elite genes, no husband attached. At a rehab clinic, she targets a paralyzed tycoon starving himself after his stepmother's betrayal. Teasing him back to life, she talks him into marriage, but their clashes soon drive them apart. When she discovers she is a lost heiress and learns he has been faking his paralysis for revenge, they reunite to take down their enemies.
It runs 56 short episodes on iDrama and leans on revenge, CEO romance and billionaire tropes, with each episode ending on a hook.
Is it worth watching?
If you came for revenge, the payoff 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.
Plan on roughly 1–2 hours from the first episode to the finale.
