She has neither aspiration nor emotion and her smile is sarcastic. Eun-jo is a girl who has apathy toward life. Her mother, who has been living as a single mother for 18 years, finally found the right person to marry and brought Eun-jo into the stepfather’s house.

A decent house and a decent family…. Eun-jo feels that everything in this house does not fit for her. The most unbearable thing she faces is the stepsister Hyo-sun, who is the apple of her father’s eyes and beloved by everyone in the house. Hyo-sun also takes away the mind of Eun-jo’s mother, just like her bright and untainted character attracted all the other people. Eun-jo cannot tolerate this situation, since she lost the only one that she completely owned.

She sets her mind on getting even with Hyo-sun. ‘Cinderella shouldn’t be loved by her stepmother. You broke the rule! I’ll pay you back by taking away what you have and will have! But then… What should I do first?’

My comment :

Jalan Cerita : Bagus untuk yg suka melodrama dan cerita yg tragis-tragis.  Dari awal sampai akhir bercucuran air mata, tiap episode ada aja masalah yg membuat tokoh2nya nelangsa.  Porsi romance dan komedi tidak sebanding dengan porsi penderitaan.  Jadi kalau ada adegan romance, itu yg kita tunggu-tunggu.  Kalau ada adegan komedi kita tertawa getir.  Overall serial ini layak ditonton, apalagi yg suka sama dark & depressing drama, hukumnya wajib. Ha ha ha ... 

Cast :  Ini termasuk drama yg cocok castingnya.  Moon Geun Young sangat cocok membawakan peran yg sulit sebagai Eun Jo, gadis yg terluka bathin dan apatis terhadap hidup.  Kalau dia gak dapat award di serial ini, wah ... keterlaluan deh.  Ekspresi wajahnya benar-benar judes abiezzz, alias jutek maritek.  Chun Jung Myung juga bagus membawakan peran Ki Hoon, yg terbuang dari keluarga, dan terjebak dalam persaingan cinta 2 kakak beradik Eun Joo & Hyo Sun.  Tokoh yg paling kasihan dan banyak pengorbanannya sebagai Cinderella adalah Hyo Sun, yg sangat cocok dibawakan oleh Seo Woo.

Romance : jauh dari "menggebu".  Romance "manis-manis jambu" begini yg bikin penasaran.

Ending : Happy

Rating : 9/10. Recommended.
