Storyline

Poni and Mini are identical twins: same height, same weight, they get the same grades at school, and even play the same position on the basketball team. All of which tends to make people forget that they are individuals.


Even Ping, Poni’s secret admirer, is unable to tell the girls apart. When Mini’s boyfriend, Yogurt (who can tell them apart), can’t handle Mini, he comes to Poni to ask her advice. Poni can’t understand why people think twins are so mysterious. They are just two persons who happen to look alike. But then why is it that Yogurt can tell them apart, when Ping can’t? This one instance of mistaken identity leads to two identity crises, and two very complicated lives. And one kept secret leads to two sisters being torn apart.
