Until how long the FL and her family would suffer... like there's no light at the end of the tunnel...

Yes, I believe so as well. That evil witch!

Unfortunately, the flashback scene at the start of episode 16 confirms that Duna is dead. Hana identified the body herself in the morgue.

I was actually also hoping that Duna would still be alive.

For those who got confused about who the real missing daughter is.

Chairwoman Shin's daughter, Yujin, who went missing when she was young, is Duna, not Hana. Up until episode 16, this is what I understand:

Hana:
- She lost her parents when she was young (the parents are unknown).
- She went to the orphanage.
- She was adopted by a mean family with an abusive mom, who treated Hana as a maid instead of a daughter.
- The abusive mom got caught in the abusive act (with help from Jin Goo at the hospital). Jin Goo and Hana had some encounters at the hospital when they were young, Jin Goo was having some kind of heart surgery.
- Hana was sent back to the orphanage.
- She became best friends with Yujin/Duna at the orphanage
- She still keeps in touch with Duna even though she was adopted and moved to the US.
- When Duna came to Korea to find her birth mom, Hana met her briefly before she died in a hit-and-run accident.
- Hana went to the morgue to identify Duna's body.
- Hana took Duna's son, Eun Chong, and raised him.

Yujin:
- She is Chairman Shin's biological daughter and Se Yeong's cousin.
- Her father (Chairman Shin's husband) took her and Se Yeong to an island (presumably for a holiday).
- Yujin went missing at the port while playing with Se Yeong. Yujin's dad was buying the boat tickets at that time. She was unconscious in the basement of a boat, and the boat departed. Se Yeong lied to Yujin's dad saying that she didn't see her.
- Yujin woke up finding herself in a boat sailing somewhere with the boatman.
- The boat was caught by storm, and presumably capsized or sunk. The boatman died, but Yujin's body was never found.
- Yujin miraculously survived, suffering from amnesia. She was misidentified (thought to be someone else) and got sent to the orphanage (the same orphanage where Hana lived).
- Yujin met Hana at the orphanage. She took the name Duna and became best friends with Hana.
- Duna got adopted, and the family moved to the US. Hana still kept in touch with Duna even after she moved to the US.
- Duna had a son -- Eun Chong. It is not known if she was married or not, and not too sure who was the father.
- Duna and her son came to Korea to find her biological mom. She found the house, and met someone (a lady, who I guess is Se Yeung's mom), who asked Duna to meet her and that she would text her the time and place.
- Duna met Hana briefly during lunchtime before she went to the place directed by Se Yeung's mom.
- Se Yeung's mom orchestrated the hit-and-run accident that killed Duna.
- Hana went to the morgue to identify Duna's body.
- Hana took Eun Chong and raised him.

That's my understanding so far.

Below is my prediction/guess (not confirmed yet):

The evil Ji Seok, as part of his revenge, might come up with a "fake" DNA test showing that Hana is Chairman Shin's biological daughter. He can easily do that by stealing Eun Chong's DNA sample and matching it with Chairman Shin's DNA. They will match, because they are real grandmother-grandson.

So this might be where Hana will become the "fake" daughter of Chairman Shin.

But this is just my prediction, not confirmed. I might be wrong.

yes, that evil witch! my blood boils seeing her whispering a secret to her daughter (seyeong). uuuuurrrgh.

The real daughter of Chairman Shin (Yujin) is Duna, not Hana. Duna and Hana were best friends in the orphanage when they were young.

Eun Chong is Duna's daughter, so he is Chairman Shin's biological grandson.

You might want to re-watch episodes 1-5 to understand more about their background.

No, Yujin (Chairman Shin's missing daughter) is Duna, not Hana. She was Hana's best friend in the orphanage when they were young.

Eun Chong is Duna's daughter, so he is Chairman Shin's biological grandson.

You might want to re-watch episodes 1-5 to understand more about their background.

Episode 16 sheds more light on what happened to Duna.

So Duna was in Korea when the accident happened. She briefly met Hana and then was about to find her mom (chairwoman Shin) when she was hit by the hit-and-run accident. It seems that Se Yeong's mom killed her in the accident to prevent Duna/YuJin from meeting her mom. So evil.

So apparently Duna's adoptive parents and husband (if any) were not around at the time of Duna's death. The question is, where are they? Are they still in the US? Did they cut ties with Duna when she went to Korea to find her biological mom?

I really hate Ji Seok. The way he thinks that his sister Hana is getting in his way, and even tells Jin Goo not to trust her when he specifically asks Ji Seok to vindicate her.

It's heartwarming to see that Chairman Shim finally meets Eun Chong, her grandson, at the shopping mall.

Eun Chong is adorable. He is one reason why I continue watching the show. So far he's the most likeable character in the drama, followed by Jin Goo, Hana and perhaps Ji Chang (Hana's youngest brother).

I already can predict where the plot will be heading:

- Gong Boo's ex will come to him with his child (after confirming the DNA test, I guess), affecting Gong Boo and Hong Dan's marriage, and perhaps the baby. In the end, Gong Boo will need to raise two kids, lol.
- Gong Hee is pregnant with Min Gi's child, which will affect Min Gi's relationship with Ji Na.
- The evil grandmother will find that Min Gi is Ji Na's other man, and will also try to destroy their marriage plan.
- I'm not too sure about Audrey and her relationship with her son (Dansu), will she tell him the truth?
- And I am not too sure what will happen to Dansu and Gong Hee's relationship if she's pregnant with Min Gi's child.

We are almost halfway and the story gets so complicated. :)

true!

I think she meant the guy who plays Tae Woong. Which is Choi Tae Joon, Park Shin Hye's husband. I think he's quite good, on par with Kim Jung Hyun's acting.

The acting that I can see a bit lacking is Geum Sae Rok, the FL who plays Darim. But it may not be her fault, it may be due to how the Darim's character was written.

They are the main leads so unlikely that they will not be together at the end.

ikr!

Yes, I agree with you, it seems that this is where the plot's direction is heading to. And the Love Capital people will give Murim a hard time.

I know right. Furthermore, it's being used as cliffhanger to the next episode which we need to wait for 6 days.

I have a hunch that Murim arresting his mom with the handcuff is just another imagination of hers.

This drama wins big at the SBS Drama Awards today. Congratulations to the team!

Special congratulations to Yuna who won the Best Youth Actress Award for her performance as Jae-hui. It's her third award after APAN and Baeksang.

Ok, so Taeri is not Sang-ah and So-woo's biological son. He might be adopted since Sang-ah is infertile. No wonder Sang-ah doesn't show any maternity love at all to him.

Poor Taeri.

We can only see the back of his face, but the side can be seen a bit. It seems that Richard Han is Yujin's dad and chairwoman Shin's husband. The question is, why does he want to destroy his wife's company by engaging Ji-Seok? I don't understand.

Episode 15 gives more hints about what happened to Yujin/Duna, she was (presumably) dead due to a car accident when Eun-Chong was still one year old. It seems that the car accident might have been caused by, or may have had some involvement with Se Yeong and her mom. Another question: could Se Yeong (or her mom) have found out then that Duna is Yujin, and tried to get rid of her?

More info was revealed, but it brings up more questions!

this is what i understand:

hana:
- lost parents when she was young (the parents are unknown)
- went to the orphanage
- got adopted by the mean family with abusive mom, who treated hana as a maid instead of a daughter.
- the abusive mom got caught in the abuse act (with the help from jin goo at the hospital. jin goo and hana had some encounters at the hospital when they were young, jin goo was having some kind of heart surgery.
- hana was sent back to orphanage
- became best friend with yujin/duna at the orphanage
- still keep in touch with duna even though she was adopted and moved to the US

yujin:
- chairman shin's daughter. se yeong's cousin.
- her father (chairman shin's husband) took her and se yeong to an island (presumably for holiday).
- yujin went missing at the port while playing with se yeong and yujin's dad was buying the boat tickets. she was unconscious in a basement of a boat, and the boat departed. se yeong lied to yujin's dad saying that she didn't see her.
- yujin woke up finding herself in a boat sailing somewhere with the boatman.
- the boat was caught by storm, and presumably capsized or sunk. the boatman died, but yujin's body was never found.
- yujin miraculously survived, suferring from amnesia, misidentified and sent to the orphanage.
- yujin met hana at the orphanage. she took the name duna and becoming best friends with hana.
- yujin got adopted, the family moved to the US. hana still kept in touch with yujin even after she moved to the US.

during the time-skip (off screen):

- yujin had a son (eunchong). not too sure if she was married or not, and not too sure who was the father.
- yujin and the family, including eunchong, involved in a car accident. only eunchong survived, yujin and her adopted family were presumably dead.
- eunchong became an orphan, and hana took him and raised him.

this is my understanding.
