Synopsis
Chien Ching-fen is trapped in 12 years of marriage and child rearing which makes her the envy of many single women. Chien Ching-fen is an office worker who has no ambition to work. She was originally He Rui-zhi's subordinate. Since joining the company, it has been discovered that Chien and Rebecca Chang were not only born on the same day and month, but also often wear matching outfits.{{cite web|url=https://www.straitstimes.com/life/entertainment/binge-worthy-imperfect-us-elevates-love-triangle-trope-to-centre-on-complex-female-leads|title=Binge-worthy: Imperfect Us elevates love triangle trope to centre on complex female leads|author=Jan Lee|date=25 April 2024|publisher=The Strait Times|language=en}}
Unexpectedly, Chien and Rebecca also fell in love with He Rui-zhi at the same time. Twelve years later, Chien Ching-fen became He Rui-zhi's wife and began a happy but boring family life. Chien becomes curious about Rebecca's current condition and becomes jealous when she finds out that she has a good life. But in reality, there is a big gap between the side of Rebecca shown on social media and real life.{{cite web|url=https://www.straitstimes.com/life/entertainment/why-taiwanese-actor-mike-he-got-asked-to-leave-the-set-of-new-drama-imperfect-us|title=Why Taiwanese actor Mike He got asked to leave the set of new drama Imperfect Us|author=Jan Lee|date=22 March 2024|publisher=The Straits Times|language=en}}
