When her father’s old record player was being taken, Sang-doo goes after the guy, accidently killing him. After being released from prison, he finds that his family and Eun-hwan have left him. Years later, he becomes a gigolo (with his uncle) to pay off his sick daughter’s hospital bills. He eventually meets his long-lost first-love, Eun-hwan as a high school math teacher.

October 26th, 2007 at 3:49 pm
Bi’s acting so cool ini this drama. He could make people laugh and cry for the same time. Although the ending’s so suprising, love Sang doo. I think this drama’s worth to watch, especially for Rain’s and Lee Dong Gun’s fans.
December 12th, 2007 at 3:46 pm

Sang Doo and Bori’s scenes are the sweetest and most touching I have seen between a father and Daughter…It just makes you fall in love all over again with BI…
January 4th, 2008 at 3:23 pm
it’s a very good drama, eventhough it has a lot of tragic scenes. one of my must-watch kdrama for all of you guys! especially when you are a fain of Bi!=]
January 8th, 2008 at 10:17 pm
I love this series 🙂
Does anyone know where I can get Sangdoo’s ringtone?
January 23rd, 2008 at 8:47 pm
Hehe this show is nice naman. The chemistry of the characters is just right & the predicament they get themselves into is hilarious as well. Pero medyo heavy sya but nothing like Stairway TH naman. The ending is tragic but fulfilling as well. Ito ang unang Koreanovelang pinanuod ko na hasn’t been shown in the Phils. Ü
January 25th, 2008 at 11:03 am
Whats the ending?I wan 2 buy the dvd coz im a fan of rain..
January 26th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
Bi can make a good daddy and a good husband. (a spouse with Song Hye Kyo! hehehe!)
Hey guys, I just wanna comment on something but I’m not offensing anyone here or to the cast too.. I’m just making a comment about this drama..
Uhm, you know what..? the actresses between Hong Su Hyun (Sera) and Gong Hyo Jin (Chae Eun Hwan), I think, Sera is more cute than Eun Hwan when I compared their faces (no offense to Eun Hwan’s fans huh!). Sera’s partnership with Sangdoo is pretty good than Eun Hwan.. that’s all.
No offense to all of you huh. I’m just commenting on what I’ve thought to this drama.
Well, for real, Bi and Song Hye Kyo has a good combination and their partership will never last forever! 😀 Hope their special friendship relationship will turn into real partnership as a couple so they would bring happiness to all Bi-Kyo fans (just like me) worldwide..
Love yah Rain!
January 26th, 2008 at 11:25 pm
another thing is,
I always watch the 5th Episode in this drama whereby BI sang JUST ONCE while playing a piano and another episode where he was strolling in a grocery store and dances Michael Jackson’s dance steps such as Moonwalk…
That’s why I’m crazy over Bi/Rain because of his moves, expressions and talents.. I can’t get over with him!
Ji Hoon oppa, I’m looking forward for your next drama with Song Hye Kyo.. how I wish it could happen..
February 12th, 2008 at 12:41 am
i really love this drama as i am bi and lee dong gun fan….. before watching sang doo,
the most lovely actor for me is lee dong gun but everything is change,
rain had really act for the best in this drama…
But i really hate the ending…….. What a SPOILER……..
sang doo and eun hwan were died at the end….
March 10th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
wach this drama make me cry …. but i’m happy it’s happy ending at the end….. I love you Rain…
March 25th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
for me Rain is a versatile actor i admire him a lot. This is really good drama series. It’s 6/10
May 15th, 2008 at 8:01 am
I love this drama. It’s so heart-warming, cute, witty, and fun with the right dosage of drama!
One of my favorite dramas – I bought the box (and I’m not usually one to buy movies/dramas)!
May 27th, 2008 at 6:39 pm
This drama is so underated!!!! This is my favorite Kdrama. This is not definitely trendy, but has real depth to the story. The ending is remarkably well done as well.. If you haven’t watched, it really worth giving a shot.
May 27th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
This is Rain’s devut drama ever. And his acting was unexpectibly good. I think the character Sangdoo and Rain actually alike in real life… having obstacles and ordeals to go through… and doing very best for the loved ones…… This is heart warming yet very realistic…..
June 6th, 2008 at 12:41 am
I really like this drama.
The storyline is so touching and unexpected.
The flashbacks often make us think about our own childhood life.
Thumbs up to the whole production crews and casts.
Ganbatte!

Just watched this series which I had purchased over a year ago. It’s better than I had expected. Rain and Lee Dong Gun make a good buddy couple. I wish some other actress had played the Kong Hyo Jin role. She was good in THANK YOU, but her characters in SNOWMAN and SANG-DOO are very similar.
August 4th, 2008 at 10:16 am
well..
just finished watching this series last month i think…
and still, i can’t get over it!
i think it is a great one!
cause.. it’s very different from the other story line of k-series..
a lot of dilemmas. was experienced of every character. as in..
watching it was worthwhile.
one can learn so many things…
at the end.. i just can’t stop crying…
i recommend this…^^,
September 10th, 2008 at 6:45 pm
I like this drama very much!! it is fun n sometimes sad-so sad. I like Rain in this series!! He is really funny!! hahehah! the love story in this drama is very upset!! I cry alot when watching it!
September 10th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
Anyway, why there is no OST link here?!!! I really love d OST(sound track in this drama)! so sad that it doesnt has!
Anyone here some of the songs in this drama??! if so, pleas! send to me. My mail address is [email protected]. Thanks in advance if you could send some to me!!
September 27th, 2008 at 1:39 am
I enjoyed the drama so much. Love the acting of RAIN & GONG HYO JIN, good chemistry. LEE DONG GUN’s character as Kang Min Suk was great, he touched many woman’s heart. The drama made you laugh & cry. Very heartwarming drama, worth to watch.
October 16th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
i love this drama! eun hwan and sang doo ended up with a baby!!! they’re not dead!! lee dong gun & rain bi.. they are the best rivals for the heart or song hye kyo.. hehehehe i have a nice tandem!!! good job rain! nice one lee dong gun!!
October 16th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
thanks..
November 21st, 2008 at 1:19 pm
Please tell me what happens at the end? do they die or live happily ever after. I bought the dvd but subtitles were terrible since I don’t understand Korean it was hard to fathom at the end…. do they imagine the happy end? or it really does happen?
April 6th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
ok drama…not on my fav list…don’t like the constent flash bks or cast much but story ok…the ending was a cliff hanger…but good happy ending they live & 2gether & shes pregnant yay 🙂

From what I think, I didn’t like this movie. Because it’s sad. LOL, but I’m serious though, I hate crying….I just think that this drama kind of dragged….

looks like interesting…. where can i find this movie?
October 8th, 2010 at 9:49 am
This was such a an emotional, yet sometimes funny drama. Rain almost flawless portraying Sang Doo; he really drew me in to his character. I was completely absorbed in his scenes and especially scenes with his daughter and Eun-hwan as played by Gong Hyo Jin. The supporting cast was also fantastic. Excellent writing and direction. I highly recommend this drama.
December 24th, 2010 at 11:20 pm
i saw this drama ages ago but i can still remember rain’s acting was excellent here; this being his debut drama n all….he was able to make u laugh n cry along with him as his character was too pitiful n sad. he was saddled with a sick child who was not even his (without his knowledge) n he had to work as a gigolo to support her hospital bills.
when he met up with his first luv, eun-hwan, we were taken back to when they were schoolmates in luv, n how an unfortunate incident left him institutionalized at a reform school for juveniles; n how he got dumped by his adoptive parents n got separated fr eun-hwan. the flashbacks were too sad n heartbreaking to bear n this was also where tears flowed freely n uncontrollably for all audiences.
all in all, a very good effort by rain….super story n solid casts make this drama an endearing one….

Don’t think Gong Hyo job is pretty enough to be in any roles. Why does she keep getting picked. Didn’t like her in Pasta, the Greatest love and now this? As a love interest for Bi Rain? Why her?
September 23rd, 2013 at 11:47 pm
uri oppaa kachiiisooyoooo…saranghaaeeeee
December 6th, 2013 at 10:35 pm
Seeing that Bi and Lee Dong Gun are the male leads, this is oppa “heaven” for me, LOL (^_^) will definitely watch!

@Donna Arenas
Gong Hyo Jin is so beautiful! I guess because she is not all done up with plastic surgery she not beautiful to some people. Not only is she so pretty she is one of the best actress in Kdrama.
