Gonna Make It (Chinese: 小小传奇) is a Mediacorp Channel 8 romance drama that will broadcast from 30 September 2013 to 25 October 2013 and consist of 20 episodes. The main casts are Julie Tan, Bryan Wong, Xu Bin, Edwin Goh and Ya Hui.

Su Xiao Xiao (Julie Tan) was born in a single-parent family. After giving birth to her at 18 years old, her mother (May Phua) abandoned her in the care of her maternal grandparents (Jin Yinji, Zhang Wei). She never knew who her father was.

Her grandparents love her very much, yet they do not know how to discipline her. She has never liked studying, but she has a strange interest in hair-cutting. She was often unable to hold back from cutting the hair of female classmates sitting in front of her in class, making the girls cry. She received many warnings, yet she does as she pleases. None of her classmates dared to sit in front of her.

Without her grandparents’ knowledge, she secretly begs the lady boss of the nearby hair salon to take her in. The lady boss Monica (Cynthia Koh) thinks this is ridiculous, but says yes just to oblige her. Xiao Xiao is dedicated to her craft, even saving up her pocket money to buy practice wigs. She ends up dropping out of school, so her grandparents give in. During Xiao Xiao’s days as an apprentice, Monica treats her as cheap labour and does not teach her any hairstyling techniques.

Before she can pick up any skills, she gets to know an idle young man, Li Fei Long (Edwin Goh), a righteous street gangster. Fei Long sees her being bullied by Monica’s sleazy husband Ken, who ‘teaches’ her massage techniques only to take advantage of her. Fei Long stands up for her and gives Ken a good beating.

Xiao Xiao starts to get closer to Fei Long and his bunch of gangster friends.

She later takes a stab for Fei Long unintentionally during a gang fight. Fei Long regards her as his benefactor after that. During this incident, she witnesses her good friend being killed, and sees the family of the victim crying in mourning. Due to her involvement in this incident, she is sentenced to jail for three years. She completely changes, and works hard to improve herself. She begins to put her heart into hairdressing. During her trying to do well in the hairdressing business, she meets Oscar Yang Yuan Shuai (Xu Bin) and they both fell in love.
