Synopsis: Was I ever a son to you?

Orphaned as a child, Tae-seob was raised in his uncle’s butcher shop, working without pay and calling the man “father” in return. Now grown, Tae-seob asks for wages to start a new life with the woman he loves but is met with cold dismissal. Yet when he discovers his uncle freely spending money to hide an affair, Tae-seob sees an opportunity. But as he pulls one thread after another, Tae-seob finds himself trapped in a web of deceit far more dangerous than he imagined, where every step forward leads deeper into betrayal, and nothing unfolds as expected.
