Multiple Identities Short Dramas

Sixteen series where somebody is not who they say they are. Median 53 episodes, above the trope average, which is what a concealed-identity plot costs: the reveal has to be earned twice, once for the audience and once inside the story.

How this page was built

Editorial policy

The 41 series on this page carry Multiple Identities as a trope label in the catalogue of the platform that publishes them. We do not tag series ourselves, which means this page is exactly as complete, and as inconsistent, as the platforms' own labelling. Episode counts and runtimes are read from each platform's listing for that specific series; coin prices come from the in-app purchase tiers Apple publishes for each app. We hold complete pricing for all 41. Nothing on this page is a paid placement, and we do not rank by anything we were given for free.
