The DramaNext guide
What I Conquered the World with Melodrama is about
Transmigrated into the body of an impoverished girl in an ancient dynasty, a modern writer starts penning scandalous romance novels under a pseudonym to survive. Her sensational stories take the capital by storm, captivating both a princess and a powerful prince. When her true identity is unmasked, her wit and modern talents dazzle the entire court—including the emperor himself.
It runs 60 short episodes on iDrama and leans on second chance, secret identity and romance tropes, with each episode ending on a hook.
Is it worth watching?
If you came for second chance, the payoff is a lead who knows how it went wrong last time and plays it differently. On top of that: waiting for the truth about who the lead really is to come out.
The whole series takes roughly 1–2 hours, so it's an easy binge.
