Plot
editSeo Young-ji is ashamed of her poor upbringing and works hard to better herself. She goes to see a plastic surgeon, hoping that by changing her appearance she will feel better about herself. The surgeon, Jung Ah-mi, asks her for a favor: Ah-mi's parents have set her up on a blind date with Kim Joon-woo, but she isn't interested and wants Young-ji to go in her place. Young-ji agrees, and she and Joon-woo hit it off. However, when Joon-woo discovers that Young-ji isn't Ah-mi, and in fact has a poor family to look after, he dumps her.
Before dating Joon-woo, Young-ji was also recently dumped by Choi Do-kyung, a poor, but ambitious social climber. Do-kyung will do anything to marry a rich woman, and he falls for Ah-mi. But although Ah-mi also wants to get married soon, she has her own secrets to hide.[1]
