Synopsis:
 
This drama revolves around the fate of two men born in the 60s at the same time, and in the same hospital, of a coal mining town.

Shin Tae-hwan is the managing director of a coal mine in Taebaek. As the true embodiment of ambition, he strives to become the inheritor of the coal mining company called the Taesung Group. In this process, he kills Lee Ki-chul, another miner who has been blocking his path to success. For his own selfish pleasure, he also seduces a nurse at Taebaek Hospital, only to coldly brush her away later.

At that moment, the wife of the deceased miner Lee Ki-chul gives birth to a son at Taebaek Hospital. On that same day, Shin Tae-hwan’s wife also gives birth to a baby boy.

Mi-ae is the nurse who has been betrayed by Shin Tae-hwan. In her rage, she comes up with a scheme to fulfill her own revenge. As if to jab a dagger into Shin Tae-hwan’s heart, she switches the two babies born in the same hospital. By doing so, she viciously transforms the fates of the two lives.

One of the Korean drama series that consist a lot of episodes, I think 50 episodes all. And at first I actually wonder who would like to watch such a very long drama series. We are so used to Asian Dramas that are not really long, we actually love the idea that korean dramas have a short storyline yet interesting, usually end fast! So for this time, it’s the opposite, divided in 50 parts but well surprisingly the viewers have welcomed this one with so much interest because first and foremost, the first episode is already interesting, exciting and you will surely crave to look forward to the next episodes. Once you’ve watch it, I bet you’ll be glued to the idea that you’ll want more of this series. This one talks on some family issue, friendship, love, and a bitter revenge that makes this drama series sort of suspense! With good plot and good performance of the characters, I guess you’ll not be bothered at all with how long this series runs.
