Royal Family (Hangul로열 패밀리; RRRoyeol Paemilli) is a 2011 South Korean television series that explores the dark side of wealth and the power of love to fight the system. Yum Jung-ah and Ji Sung play two childhood friends who grow up supporting each other through poverty and all other obstacles, and when they meet again years later, stand by each other as they rise in society’s ranks. It aired on MBC from March 2 to April 28, 2011 on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 21:55 for 18 episodes.

After marrying into a wealthy and powerful chaebol family (considered by some as Korea's modern-day "royalty"), Kim In-sook's (Yum Jung-ah) life becomes a living hell. Looked down on by her in-laws as a gold-digging intruder, she's ignored and treated as a shadow for years. When her husband is killed in a helicopter accident, her mother-in-law (Kim Young-ae) takes In-sook's son away. Enter Han Ji-hoon (Ji Sung), the powerhouse new lawyer of the family, who knows In-sook from the past. Ji-hoon becomes determined to put a stop to the oppressive situation she's been in for 18 years.

When In-sook finally decides that she has had enough and launches a bold plan to take over the family company, Ji-hoon will be there at her side, no matter what it costs him. The two begin to play a dangerous double game, but in the midst of their battle for survival, their hearts are drawn together in a passion that could cost them everything.
