Smitten with teen idol star Kun Kung, Tae Yeon Im dreams of one day meeting the famous model and, perhaps, marrying him. Of course, she knows it's just a silly pipedream and would never even think of an encounter, much less a tryst, coming to pass.
Alas, that is until her cousin, Jung-Woo Im, Tae's spitting image save for obvious differences in gender, reveals that he attends the same school as the well-publicized Kun. The minute it looks like Tae's fantasies may become a reality, the love-struck teen cooks up a plan to, at the very least, brush up against the object of her desire.
She convinces her cousin to switch places with her for a week! She will dress as a boy and attend Jung-Woo's school as him ... while Jung-Woo would dress in drag and attend Tae's all-girls school.

Ga-Woon Kim
Pure Water High's residant bully, and one of the many who seem to enjoy handing out beatings to the oblivious Jung-Woo, until Tae sets him straight.
He is the leader of his small gang though has still gained a reputation as being a strong deviant character. After Tae and Jung-Woo switch places, he eventually finds himself starting to feel attracted to Tae, though while still thinking her as Jung-Woo, he also starts to question his sexuality.

Yi Won gang members
Ghoon-Hahm Che
He's made Jung-Woo the recipient of almost daily butt-kickings. Is it that he just doesn't lke the pretty-boy's face...or that Que-Min does?
Only a first year in high school, he is the leader of the Yi Won gang and has a reputation to be a very tough individual. While in junior high school, he got into several fights where he was outnumbered, but ended up winning them anyway. He and Que-Min first met while still in elementary school and is also where Ghoon-Hamn developed his first crush on Que-Min.
Won Hee
A third year student, he tends to be one of the most charismatic members of the gang and also the one that talks the most other than Ghoon-Hamn. He seems to be a very friendly person most of the time.
Ju Yoo
A first year in high school, he's been described as being love struck most of the time but is otherwise a good guy. In the summer, he is nicknamed "Red Sleeveless" due to the red sleeveless shirt he wears during that time and in contrast he's nicknamed "Black turtleneck" in the winter for similar reasons.
Dar Jay
A second year in high school, most of the time he's all talk and isn't really that strong. He loves to sing kareoke but is not very good at it.
Yeong Joon
A first year in high school, he is one of the homosexual members of the gang who is currently in an intimate relationship with Jin Lee. Yeong usually doesn't say much and seems to be pretty aloof most of the time.
Jin Lee
He is a third year in high school who is the only other homosexual member of the gang. Most of the time he's tending to Yeong Joon in a playful manner, as in feeding him food. On top of that, he also looks very much like a girl. Jin's father is the boss of the Sang-Lee gang, a hardcore mob and so Jin is also the source of money for the Yi Won gang.

Pretty-boy Fan Club members
The "Pretty-boy Fan Club" is a club of a group of female students at Pure Water High School, where Jung-Woo also attends, who take pictures of all of the boys in their school who they view as especially attractive.
Que-Min Ghun
A former tough-chick trying to leave her past behind her. She's got a thing for poor Jung-Woo- now if he could only remember her name.
One of the main characters of the second arc, she is a beautiful seventeen year old girl who has a past that she has tried very hard to forget. At her old school, she was known as a female thug due to how physically strong she is and this had somewhat of a bad reputation. However, after moving and attending a new school, she was determined not to show anyone new she met her other more stronger side and wanted to be viewed as a normal high school girl. One of her interests is writing and she has even taken it upon herself to start writing her first novel which she publishes online.
Yang Me
She is a very hyper girl who usually wears her hair in two pig tails. Yang Me also seems to be the most enthusiastic about being in the club and is more or less the unofficial leader of the group. She also appeared in the first arc since she is in Jung-Woo's class and appears to be friends with him.
Yeon Wha
She is also very enthusiastic about obsessing over all the pretty boys in her high school. She has been observed to have a mild temper when around Lin Lee, who most of the girls in the club detest due to her always stealing all the boys away from them.
Min Ju
One of the members of the club, though not much is known about her as she appears so sparingly and only has a few lines in the whole series. Other than that, she seems like a typical boy-crazy girl.

Jung-Woo Im
Switches places with his female cousin. He dresses in drag and attends an all-girls school...something that doesn't seem to really upset him that much. Either he likes to be around girls, or he's very comfortable wearing a skirt!
But as your typical lone wolf, his pretty-boy loos get him more attention thsn he'd like-especially from local gang leader Ghoon-Hahm.
He is the main character of the second arc of the story though serves to start the plot for the first arc. Most of the time Jung-Woo is very passive, showing no emotion unless he's engaged in a fight. Despite his frail appearance, he is relatively physicially strong, which takes his opponents off guard. His most defining feature is that he looks a lot like a female, especially later on when he grows his hair out.
He has an intense affinity towards dogs as when he was young he found a stray he later named Ghost though it died after it got run over by a car.

Plot
Kill Me, Kiss Me is a story that actually has two separate plots that are loosely connected with each other. The first, spanning only the first volume of the manhwa, centers around the high school girl Tae Yeon Im and her obsession over a handsome model named Kun Kang. One day, Tae finds out that Kun Kang goes to the same school as her identical in appearance cousin Jung-Woo Im and suggests to him to switch places with her for a time so she can get closer to the model of her dreams. Jung-Woo ends up agreeing after Tae had given him much of her possessions, though they settled only on one week of time for the switch. Upon arrival at Jung-Woo's school, however, she promptly gets beaten up by the gang member Ga-Woon Kim who had a previous score to settle with Jung-Woo. Despite this minor set back, Tae doesn't want to give up and goes back to the school the next day to still try to get closer with Kun, though finds out Ga-Woon and Kun have been best friends since junior high school. Most of the rest of the plot from this first arc involve Ga-Woon starting to develop feelings of attraction towards Tae, though with him still under the belief that Tae is really Jung-Woo, Ga-Woon starts to question his sexuality.
The second arc in the Kill Me, Kiss Me series spans the rest of the manhwa from volumes 2-5 and has almost no connection with the first arc. We are first introduced to a beautiful girl named Que-Min Ghun who is not as innocent as she may first appear as she is incredibly strong and can beat up most anyone. She also goes to the same school as Jung-Woo and after meeting one day in the street, starts to develop a crush on him, going as far as to try to protect him from gang members like Ghoon-Hahm Che and his gang, the Yi Won. Eventually, Ghoon-Hahm reveals his intentions to be a couple with Que-Min only reluctantly agrees in order to protect Jung-Woo from more beatings.

Lin Lee
She is a short, conceited girl who uses a lot of different tactics to make herself more appealing to the eye, like wearing hair extensions, skin concealer, and plucking her eyebrows, among other things. She has developed a crush on Ghoon-Hamn, but he doesn't want anything to do with her and also barely even knows she exists.
Kai
He is the leader of the Ghoo Won gang who knew Ghoon-Hahm back from junior high school, when he was known as Bok-Chil. After a run in they had together during a fight with about twenty other guys against Ghoon-Hahm, he fled to Japan only to come back later.
