female lead takes place of her sister who's a celeb

Storyline is pretty cliche! Female lead has a twin sister who is a famous star. Female lead takes on her sister's identity.

This drama started out so well! really enjoyed it but the later half was such a disappointment!

Female lead is your average plain jane who delivers food. Sister is a famous celebrity. Her sisters gets into an accident and has her twin sister aka female lead replace her to act out her final project in college. Male lead is a paparazzi , who is poor and has debt. He wants to get more news on the female lead so he pretends to be her assistant. The male lead slowly falls in love with the female lead. The female lead discovers that she wants to be an actress. She films a movie in her sister's name.
Plot Twist aka spolier alert. Her sister is actual a bitch and try to scheme her, basically have the female lead to act for her and then the twin sister goes onto expose the female lead. The drama was cute and sweet up until the female lead's twin sister came back.
Then it became weird... Where the female lead knew about the male lead's true identity. The female lead goes back to the simple life with her dad ,but then decides to pursue acting because of her dad's sickness . ( she needed money)
The second male lead likes the evil twin sister and they eventually get together and become a couple.

The weird part is that the evil twin sister got a lot of the limelight/spotlight. Like the same actress played both sisters and she baiscally got to kiss the two male leads. ( wasnt a fan of) The evil sister and the 2nd male lead got together before the leads did. They focused on the evil twin too much, stole the show. The storyline also becomes weird and choppy.

I like the leads romance! they are a very cute couple. They have good chemistry. Not a big fan of the evil twin and 2nd male as a couple.

Towards the end the drama gets even more skewed.....
