Dae-san owns a small shop in the Dongdaemun Market while Joon-hee is the heir of a fashion empire. Joon-hee asked Dae-san to be him for a month, to which he readily accepted because he needs the money right away to help Yoo-jin (SNSD’s Yoona), whose father died and left a huge amount of debt behind.

This is when the story became complicated. Joon-hee’s stepbrother Lee Jae-min (Song Chang-ee) and Dae-san both have their eyes on Yoo-jin. Then there’s Jang Se-eun (Han Eun-jeong) who likes Joon-hee not knowing that it is Dae-san. Are you still with me?

Anyway, I would like to say that Yoona did a good job in Cinderella Man although she should learn how to cry without being ugly. But aside from that, she really can act.

Cinderella Man has all the right elements for a good drama series. It has its funny and serious moments. It makes the audience want for the next episode. The ending is predictable but there was a twist near the end that caught me off guard. I watched it for Yoona but it made me a fan of Kwon Sang-woo.
