May Queen

Hae-Joo's father, an oil scholar, is betrayed and killed by Do-Hyun. Do-Hyun, who loves Hae-Joo's mother Geum-Hee, then orders Gi-Chool to kill 2-year-old Hae-Joo, but Gi-Chool can't go through with it. Gi-Chool takes 2-year-old Hae-Joo and tells others that he is taking her to the beach. He makes it appear Hae-Joo drowns by the beach, but in actuality, takes Hae-Joo to live with his old military acquaintance Hong-Chul. Unaware of all this, Hae-Joo's mother marries Do-Hyun, who has two children from a previous marriage.
