Equally impressive, there is AUTUMN IN MY HEART starring Song Hye Kyo. This Korean drama presents a tear-jerking storyline. The story revolves around Yoon Joon Suh (Song Seung Heon) and Yoon Eun Suh (Song Hye Kyo) who were raised as siblings.
However, Eun Suh actually comes from a different family and was switched at birth by someone at the hospital. This truth is only revealed after Eun Suh has an accident and loses a lot of blood, but the donor from her family is not a match.
Her life changes when Eun Suh is returned to her family. Meanwhile, the Yoon family moves to America, and Eun Suh continues her life with her biological family in Korea. As an adult, she accidentally meets Joon Suh.
Their reunion story is truly tear-jerking. However, on the other hand, this drama actually garnered very high ratings, skyrocketing Song Hye Kyo's name.

However, the love between Song Joo and Jung Seo remains strong, even when Song Joo goes to America. One day, Jung Seo gets into an accident and is reported dead. However, she is still alive but loses her memory and is intentionally given a different name by Tae Hwa.
Five years later, Song Joo unexpectedly reunites with his former love, Jung Seo. Thanks to this dramatic story, STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN not only had a sharp increase in ratings but also propelled Choi Ji Woo's name internationally, making her the highest-paid actress in Korea.
