Instead of satiating his paranoia with a DNA test, he just treats her like trash, ignoring her phone calls, turning a blind eye to the way his second wife treats her and just being a Grade A jerk to her.Įven if she was the product of an affair, how could he treat a child he had raised in this manner? It’s disgusting.īy the end of the series, he has become a loving father again, the evil Steps show remorse and Ha-Won happily accepts them as family. After her death, he began to suspect that she had an affair with her dojang partner (she didn’t) and that Ha-Won was their love child (which she isn’t). We learn via flashbacks that Ha-Won had a lovely childhood when her mother was alive. Remember I told you how Ha-Won’s father slapped her in the face? In his anger, he also spit out that he never should’ve taken another man’s child into his home and says that he’s done with her.

Her mother ran a taekwondo dojang and trained her daughter personally to be a martial arts expert. Seriously? It has already been established that she can fight and disarm grown men. When a man grabs her and throws her against a wall, she turns the table on him and tells him to never do that again, unless he’s ready to die.īut then in episode 6, a bunch of the high school Mean Girls bully her, push her into a chair and are threatening to cut her and she … just … sits … there. Later, we see her hold her own against Ji-Woon.

In the first episode, we see Ha-Won fight a man who refused to pay for the food he ordered. What really bothered me about this drama was the inconsistency of character development.

Ew.) The push-and-pull grew old fast, especially when it’s clear to the viewers that Hyun-Min is better suited to be with his childhood friend, Hye-Ji (played by APink’s Son Na-Eun). (Again…she’s still a high school student. The writers pit cousins Ji-Woon and Hyun-Min as rivals who want to date Ha-Won. It’s just all kinds of wrong for a bunch of grown-ass men to be vying for a teenager’s attention. It’s vague how old the Knights are, but since they are all clearly out of college, I’d guesstimate that they range from mid to late 20’s. When we meet Ha-Won, she is not yet 18 and is a few months away from her high school graduation. Which leads me to am element that made me uncomfortable. For instance, when rebel-without-a-cause Ji-Woon and Ha-Won drunkenly flirt with each other, they are believable and incredibly likable (until I remember the age difference). There are a some really great moments in this series. He tells her that his one cavaet is that she is not to date any of her grandsons. She will be paid well, he says, if she can get them to act more like a family, rather than tenants. During a chance meeting with a wealthy patriarch - who is impressed that she can hold her own in a group of unruly men - he offers her a job to live at his estate and keep his grandsons in line. She works multiple minimum wage jobs to save enough for her first year of college. (In reality, Ha-Won had finally grown a spine and was standing up for herself.) The only reprieve Ha-Won gets is when her father returns home from the road and the evil Steps move her belongings into an actual room.īut, instead of telling her dad how badly she is being treated, Ha-Won tries to make it appear as if they treat her well - even after her father slaps her for being disrespectful to his wife. So, she lives with her evil Stepmother and Stepsister, who make her sleep in the cluttered balcony of their apartment. Her mother died in a fire when she was a young girl.
CINDERELLA AND FOUR KNIGHTS DRIVER
Her father is a truck driver who is rarely home. Ha-Won is a soon-to-be high school graduate. As you can tell by the title, “Cinderella and Four Knights” is a modern-day fairytale.
