On that same day comes the birth of Chun Dung and Gwi Dong.
For Chun Dung who is known for his good looks and well manners although he lives among the beggars, no one dares to even mention that his name "Thunder" doesn't fit him. He keeps coming around crazily to the Gwi Dong's place as she seems he thinks that Mak Soon is his real mother. It doesn't matter if he has to learn to write or settle accounts as long as he is able to see that woman "Mak Soon" who works as Gwi Dong's nanny will get angry and start hitting him, screaming that she isn't his mother.

The more he notices the unusual kindness and consideration that she has been giving to that guy 'Chun Dung', the more his heart will be feeling hatred, that he can't endure.
