《成何体统》 How Dare You!? – Transmigration historical Chinese drama with a twist

《成何体统》 How Dare You!? – Transmigration historical Chinese drama with a twist

《成何体统》 How Dare You!? is not just another historical Chinese drama that features a transmigrator as the main character; it features multiple transmigrators.

I first discovered this series from a clip on social media from the animation (动画 – donghua), which showed two transmigrators speaking English to each other. This instantly caught my attention, and I went on to watch season 1 of the animation, which I absolutely loved!

The completed live-action was released before the full season 2 of the animation was released, so I had to binge-watch it.

Is 成何体统 any different from other transmigration shows? Let’s discuss.
