** Ji-Hoon averts this in the epilogue. He's forced to play the role of Ji-Young's girlfriend, but still identifies as male and hates the situation as a whole even as it helps him retain his identity.



* LossOfIdentity: This happens gradually as Ji-Hoon becomes female. Even in the end, he's still permanently a girl.

* {{Irony}}: Before the transformation, Ji-Hoon was best friends with Ji-Young and starts dating Miya. After the transformation, Ji-Hyun believes Ji-Young is her boyfriend and Miya is her best friend, an irony that isn't lost on everyone not LockedOutOfTheLoop.



* SecondLawOfGenderBending: Played with. Ji-Hoon outright averts this, showing great horror at his SlowTransformation, more so when he finds out the truth about Yuna. While Ji-Hyun does believe her family and friends that she was formerly male, she identifies as female, refusing to let others call her a guy and wanting to be referred to as a girl.

to:

* AboveTheInfluence: Subverted. Ji-Young tries to ignore his attraction to Ji-Hyun, even going so far as to date another girl he doesn't love in the hopes that Miya will awaken Ji-Hoon's memories, but ultimately can't deny his feelings for long. Once Yuna takes control, it doesn't take her much effort to start seducing Ji-Young, with the only reason it doesn't go too far being a slip of the tongue on Yuna's part, as well as Ji-Hoon wrestling for control and reawakening Ji-Hyun's personality. [[spoiler:After Miya gives up on getting Ji-Hoon back and moves away, Ji-Hyun and Ji-Young start going out, even after Ji-Hoon's personality reawakens.]]

* AmnesiacDissonance



* GenderBender

to:

* GenderBenderGenderBender: Ji-Hoon is slowly turned into a girl as Yuna tries to take control of his body, and the transformation itself as well as the results of it are heavily PlayedForDrama.
* GenderBenderFriendship: Ji-Hyun sees Miya as her best friend only, showing none of Ji-Hoon's attraction to her at all. This ends up being PlayedForDrama, as Miya tries to awaken Ji-Hoon's memories by attempting to go out with Ji-Hyun, but it fails miserably because the latter doesn't reciprocate and only has feelings for Ji-Young.

Meganekko is no longer a trope. It's a Fanspeak term. Moving wicks to Bespectacled Cutie when appropriate.


OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Ji-Hoon is practically delirious with the heady feeling of young romance with his first real girlfriend, shy and reticent {{Meganekko}} Ji-Soo. So delirious, in fact, that he heedlessly walks out in front of a bus on their very first date, leading Ji-Soo to sacrifice her own life pushing him out of the way.

* ThirdLawOfGenderBending: Played with just like SecondLawOfGenderBending above. Ji-Hyun takes on femininity all too quickly, wearing dresses and even falling in love with Ji-Young while also seeing Miya as a friend only. When Ji-Hyun regains control, he's forced to do this trope to prevent whatever remains of Yuna from taking control by wearing dresses and acting as Jin-Young's girlfriend.

* LighterAndSofter: A side story depicts an alternate tale of events where Ji-Hoon randomly turns into a girl one day instead of it being Yuna's doing. While he still doesn't like it, he comes to terms with his transformation in a matter of hours. Ji-Young seems to get over it quick too, as finally having a girl that truly understands him is enough for him to ask Ji-Hoon to become his girlfriend. The shock of it makes Ji-Hoon realize that it was AllJustADream.

So delirious, in fact, that he heedless walks out in front of a bus on their very first date, leading Ji-Soo to sacrifice her own life pushing him out of the way.

Inconsolable with grief, Ji-Hoon withdraws from his friends until he starts dreaming of a beautiful girl named Yuna who promises that someday they will meet for real. Unfortunately, it's soon apparent that disturbing changes are occurring in Ji-Hoon's body as he dreams - He's slowly [[GenderBender becoming female!]]. Confronted on this, Yuna eventually reveals the truth: she is a vengeful aspect of Ji-Soo's spirit, intent on [[GrandTheftMe stealing Ji-Hoon's body]] so she can have a relationship with his best friend, the handsome Ji-Young. Confronted with the fact that he's become fully female, Ji-Hoon's mind retreats, leaving behind a confused amnesiac female personality who calls herself Ji-Hyun. Eventually, Ji-Hoon, Yuna, and Ji-Hyun end up in a three-way battle for control over Ji-Hoon, body and soul.

* SplitPersonalityMerge: Ji-Hyun is an amalgamation of Yuna and Ji-Hoon, with the former's love towards Ji-Young, and the latter's naivete towards being a girl, mixed with near-complete amnesia and childlike maturity levels.
* ThirdLawOfGenderBending
* TransformationComic
* WhatTheHellHero: As one final effort to bring her boyfriend back, Miya starts molesting Ji-Hyun in the bath, and forces herself on her. Ji-Hyun is very naive and doesn't even know what a lesbian is, or much about sex at all. It doesn't end well.
