THE DAD I SHOULD HAVE BEEN

  • AddedOctober 2026

THE DAD I SHOULD HAVE BEEN belongs to the new wave of vertical dramas: a revenge and underdog rise story framed tall and cut into bite-size episodes. Like most vertical dramas, it moves fast: short episodes, a cliffhanger at the end of each, and no filler. The plot, in short:

Jack favored his cruel new wife over his own daughter, sold her inheritance, and saved his stepdaughter in a fire. Betrayed, he drowned while they watched. Reborn in 2001, on his daughter's ninth birthday, he strikes back at the wicked wife and vows to win back his child and ex-wife. But can a father who once chose wrong ever earn forgiveness?
