Biography
As a teenager, Yeon-jin was the ringleader in her friend group, and the most conniving of Moon Dong-eun's bullies. Yeon-jin and her friends burned, assaulted and mocked Dong-eun. Yeon-jin also bullied Kim Gyeong-ran and killed Yoon So-hee. Yeon-jin's wealthy mother, Hong Yeong-ae, made sure she never faced consequences for her crimes.

When Dong-eun dropped out of school due to bullying, Yeong-ae bribed Dong-eun's mother, Jeong Mi-hee, into changing the reason on the drop-out form from "bullying" to "maladjustment". When Dong-eun provided police with evidence of her daughter's involvement in So-hee's death, Yeong-ae paid the police officer to give her the evidence and not mention it in the reports.

Now, as an adult, Yeon-jin is living her dream. She works as a local weathercaster, is married to Ha Do-yeong - a wealthy and powerful man, and has a young daughter named Ha Ye-sol, but Yeon-jin has no idea Dong-eun has been tracking her and her family for years in preparation for revenge.

Yeon-jin is disliked by her co-workers, as she is the only weathercaster who cannot write her own scripts. She was only hired due to her wealthy husband buying advertisements for large sums of money.
