THE ultimate emotional "trial-by-fire" drama, my first melodrama. Watching STH, you'll be enchanted and heartbroken by the young Park Shin Hye and Baek Sung Hyun. You'll scream and want to b*tch-slap Kim Tahee and the evil step-mom. Tears will be flowing for Kwon Sang Woo’s soul-piercing, heart-shattering sobs. The result is fully vested in this hauntingly unforgettable drama. Bonus is the beautiful and memorable OST.

7 years ago STH was my first journey into dramaland and even now when I hear "Bogoshipda", there's a quick bittersweet tinge of feeling. A must watch! Just select lighter fare after STH.
