So... what is Role Reversal? Where the traditional men and women's roles are reversed (usually in relationships). These can vary in what kind and to what degree. In such dynamics, women take on the (more) masculine and dominant role in the relationship while the men take on the (more) feminine and submissive role in the relationship. 

More information can be found in the Role Reversal Subreddit!

Is Noona romance / Older Woman/Younger Man considered Role Reversal? Ultimately, yes because the typical/traditional dynamic is Older Man/Younger Woman so by default the opposite is role reversal. That being said, a lot of noona romance still has very traditional gender roles so how thorough the RR is outside of that initial dynamic switch depends on the title. 

Role reversal also has a lot of overlap with power couples (both kick butts and protect each other) as well as egalitarian relationship dynamics (50/50 relationship dynamic usually without gender roles at all).

Adding Titles: (Currently Airing, Recently Finished Airing, or Upcoming) 

If you know of a drama that's currently airing and contains role reversal themes, please let us know by following the steps below so we can add it to our News!

All requests should be posted within this thread (preferably by quoting a message from @Arclei). Attach the relevant template (found down below) to your message and fill in the info to submit a request! Though you can also send requests to @Arclei directly through private message, it's preferred for requests to be posted in this club thread so fellow club members can weigh in and discuss the title ^^

!! For upcoming movies/dramas, please only request titles that are confirmed to air at some point (abandoned or rumored titles will not be included). 

If you have any questions or doubts, feel free to ask in the thread, and I or another club member will reply ASAP. 

Adding "Club Members Thoughts": 

"Club Members Thoughts" refers to a brief review/pitch made by a club member to entice others to watch a recently aired title (which means, yes, you can only submit a pitch for titles that finished airing). 

If you'd like to submit a review, here's how it works: 

Write your review of the drama/movie and make a tldr/short version as well, then post it in this thread (be sure to tag @Arclei or otherwise let me know so I can add it). The short version will be posted in the index with a link to the full review. 

Note: The tldr/short version should be a couple of sentences long. The idea is for it to be brief and to the point. 

Some examples can be found above! 

Note that this club is managed just by me so these requests might take some time to be updated.

I'm open to ideas and suggestions <3

Those badges look great Arclei! I tried to make some Elongated Hexagon Badges, I'm not sure if the text looks okay? More badges + banners from me might follow. Will post my badges & Banners here: https://kisskh.at/discussions/creativity-forum/69619-badges-banners?pid=3238784&page=23#p3238784
