"Happy Birthday darling!" Said the old man gleefully
"Wow! Gifts!" She smiled as wide as she can possibly smile.
"Look at her, your spoiling her again."
"It's okay madam, aren't you happy seeing her happy like that?" he put his arm around his wife and both of them eyed Ji-hye who were busily opening all of his gifts.
"Of course I am, it's just that she's not a kid anymore. Jihye's 15 now"
"She'll be forever my baby."
They were a family of three, a strict mom, an all-giving dad, and an only daughter that they treasure the most. They we fortunately rich, but despite that they were unlike those stingy, selfish, and arrogant tycoons that look down on people. They have their own charities especially with those helping abandoned children. The reason why they only have one child is because the mother has a problem on her ovaries, having a child is a miracle that is why Ji-hye was an angel, a gift from the heavens. They like helping people out, just say your concern and they will try their best to help you. That is why the Yoo family was loved by a lot of people.
This scene is not unusual during the 7th of July, since it was Jihye's birthday the scenario would always be Mrs. Shin scolding her husband Mr. Yoo for spoiling Ji-hye, but at the end of the day both will end up spoiling their beloved one. That's why for Ji-hye it was one of her most favorite day of the year next to Christmas and first fall of snow.
With this, you could only predict that they are a perfect family.
"Appa, where is Jiyong-oppa?" She asked
"He is on his way"

They began playing games together, then suddenly he started protecting Ji-hye, and unconsciously he was attracted to her unconditionally, he always have that feeling that he should always be there for her whatever happens.
