THE STORY

About Back to the 80s: The Doctor Plays Dirty

Qin Wan, a top-tier modern doctor, is involved in a car accident while working overtime. When she regains consciousness, she has traveled back to the 1980s and become Qin Meiying, the universally disliked troublemaker of the steel factory compound. The original owner was crude and slovenly, rarely bathed, and had an ambiguous entanglement with Wang Lingbo, a college student at the factory, bringing endless shame to her husband Gao Zhiqiang, a security guard. The two were on the verge of divorce. On her very first day after crossing over, Wang Lingbo drugs Qin Meiying and sends her to the bed of a lecherous old man. She knocks the man unconscious, only to run straight into Gao Zhiqiang, who has come to catch her in the act with Liu Guizhi, the factory beauty who has a crush on him. Qin Wan grabs Gao Zhiqiang and kisses him forcefully, driving Liu Guizhi away. Still, no one trusts her due to the original owner's terrible reputation. To secure a place for herself, she decides to win her husband over first.
