Gracie Reed is doing just fine. Sure, she was fired by her overly “friendly” boss, and yes, she still hasn’t gotten her mother into the nursing home of their dreams, but she’s healthy, she’s (somewhat) happy, and she’s (mostly) holding it all together. But when a mysterious SUV pulls up beside her, revealing Chinese cinema's golden couple Wei Fangli and Sam Yao, Gracie’s world is turned on its head. The famous actress has a proposition: Due to their uncanny resemblance, Fangli wants Gracie to be her stand-in.

Ariadne Hui thrives on routine. So what if everything in her life is planned down to the minute: That’s the way she likes it. If she’s going to make partner in Toronto’s most prestigious law firm, she needs to stay focused at all times. But when she comes home after yet another soul-sucking day to find an unfamiliar, gorgeous man camped out in her living room, focus is the last thing on her mind. Especially when her roommate explains this is Choi Jihoon, her cousin freshly arrived from Seoul to mend a broken heart. He just needs a few weeks to rest and heal.

For Dee Kwan, every day is the perfect day. No, really. She has a house she loves, a job she adores, and a ridiculously attractive “nemesis” who never seems to mind when she wins their favorite online game. How can life possibly get better? (It can’t, obviously. It can only get much, much worse.) Soon Dee is forced to share her adorably cozy home with her parents and estranged grandmother. Then she’s tossed into the deep end at work, tasked with cleaning up a scandal for the intimidatingly chic luxury fashion firm Celeste. If that weren’t enough, she discovers her hot nemesis works there, too.

Was Gracie Reed an diesem Tag passiert, stellt ihr Leben völlig auf den Kopf: Erst wird sie von ihrem schrecklichen Chef gefeuert und dann bittet eine berühmte Schauspielerin sie plötzlich, ihr Double zu werden! Die charismatische Wei Fangli und der ebenso unverschämte wie gutaussehende Sam bilden zusammen das goldene Paar des chinesischen Kinos – und verrückterweise gleicht Gracie der jungen Darstellerin bis aufs Haar. Doch in die Rolle von Fangli zu schlüpfen, ist schwieriger als gedacht, vor allem als Gracie beginnt zu ahnen, weshalb Fangli überhaupt eine Doppelgängerin braucht.
