Dragon Baby Cold-faced Daddy Is Overprotective

About this drama

Five hundred twenty characters, and the engine is a half-dragon princess learning to be human by finding the father who does not want her. Fiona is a half-dragon princess born with a fate of perpetual poverty, which is a premise the copy treats as literal rather than metaphorical. She accidentally devours the last remaining grain storehouse of the dragon clan, and the elders banish her to the human world with a mission: find her biological father and change her innate poor destiny. The setup is mythological but the mission is economic, and the copy is deliberate about that juxtaposition. The dragon clan's punishment is not imprisonment or death but exile with a practical task, which suggests the elders see her poverty curse as fixable rather than intrinsic. When Fiona tracks down her birth father, he dismisses her as a swindling random girl and treats her with cold wariness. The copy is specific about his reaction: not rejection but suspicion, which leaves room for gradual thawing. Amid their bumpy daily interactions, he is gradually won over by Fiona's sincerity and pure nature. The rift between father and daughter slowly fades, and she edges closer to the new life she has longed for. The arc is a gradual reconciliation rather than a dramatic reversal, and the copy emphasizes the slowness. Sixty episodes are listed as complete.
