Storyline

Go Eun-byul and Lee Eun-bi (Kim So-hyun) are identical twins, separated after one is adopted at the age of 5. Eun-bi lives at the Love House, an orphanage in Tongyeong. She is always being bullied at school by a gang of mean girls led by Kang So-young (Cho Soo-hyang), while teachers turn a blind eye.

On the other hand, Go Eun-byul is studying at Sekang High School, the most prestigious private high school in Seoul. Only Eun-byul is aware of the other's existence. Unlike the cheerful Eun-bi, Eun-byul is prickly and secretive. 

One day, Eun-bi decides to end her life due to constant bullying but is saved by Eun-byul. Eun-byul then goes missing and her adoptive mother Song Mi-kyung (Jeon Mi-seon) mistakes Eun-bi as Eun-byul.

Eun-bi starts attending school in Eun-byul's place but So-young transfers to Sekang High shortly after. Their family has to move to Seoul as So-young is being accused of causing Eun-bi's death back in Tongyeong. An astonished So-young meets Eun-bi and she starts to investigate on her real identity.

My View

I guess school bullying is one of the most problematic issues in society these days.

So much so that the media is constantly focusing on this topic and turning it into dramas.
