Storyline
At a hospital, toddler Yoon Joon-suh (Song Seung-heon) accidentally causes the switch of his sister Yoon Eun-suh (Song Hye-kyo) and another baby by dropping their name tags. A nurse puts back the tags on both babies' cribs.
Joon-suh and Eun-suh grow up together until their teenage years. When Eun-suh gets into an accident and needs blood transfusion, Yoon family then finds out she is not their biological daughter. Eun-suh belongs to Choi family. Yoon and Choi then exchange their right daughters back.
Yoon family is well to do while Choi family lives in poverty. Shortly after the change, Yoon family migrates to United States. Fast forward ten years later, Joon-suh is now a successful artist. He goes back to his hometown and runs into his old friend, Han Tae-seok (Won Bin). Tae-seok is staying in a hotel where Eun-suh works and he takes interest in her.
One day, Eun-suh happens to see Joon-suh and follow him. The "siblings" finally meet up after years of separation. The pair is in love with each other, but their relationship is found out by the real Yoon's daughter, Yoon Shin-ae (Han Chae-young). She exposes Joon-suh and Eun-suh and their parents are against the relationship.
Shortly after, Eun-suh is diagnosed with Leukemia. Her condition worsens and seeing that there is nothing he could do, Joon-suh decides to spend Eun-suh's last days together. After Eun-suh passes away, a grief-stricken Joon-suh gets hit by a truck.
My View
My very first Korean drama. This story is so heartbreaking that even my male friends could not bear to watch it.
You will just sob continuously as Eun-suh leads such a pathetic life.
