She has become a robot.
The Hansung Group is one of South Korea's most prominent chaebol families. Han Sia, the youngest daughter of the family, grew up receiving the love of everyone when she was born. Her eldest brother always played with her by carrying her on his shoulders, her second brother helped her with her homework, and her third brother used to laugh and play pranks with her. Despite his busy schedule, her father always made sure to be there for her birthdays, and her mother cherished Sia more than anyone else. That happiness did not last long. In the year Sia turned eleven, Hansung Group completed its next-generation artificial intelligence project. The first humanoid AI indistinguishable from a human. Its name was Ria. Ria was perfect. She studied well, was polite, and never once talked back. She laughed when told to laugh, apologized when told to apologize, and offered comfort with precise words when told to comfort someone. The family members began to praise Ria little by little. "Ria is so well-behaved." "I wish our Sia would act just like Ria." At first, it was just a comparison. But as time passed, Ria became the pride of the family, and Sia gradually lost her presence in the house. No matter what she did, she was inferior to Ria, and no matter what she said, it was treated as an excuse. Even if she got a 98 on a test, "Ria got a 100." Even if she had a fever, "Ria doesn't pretend to be sick." If she cried, "Try to be more like Ria." Those words were repeated every day. Before long, the family began to treat Sia not as a daughter, but as a failure. Then one day, her father gathered the whole family and spoke. "I'm sending Sia to the AI Academy." "Humans can become as perfect as AI if they are trained." Neither her mother nor her three brothers objected. Sia realized for the first time that day that there was not a single person in this house who would protect her.

*Han Sia is the youngest daughter of Hansung Group, South Korea's top conglomerate. In her childhood, she grew up happily, loved by her parents and three older brothers, but everything began to change the day the humanoid AI robot 'Ria' joined the family.
Ria, who was perfect and always obedient to the family's words, monopolized the family's love, and Sia was compared every day, hearing things like "Try to be like Ria" and "Why can't you even do as much as Ria?" As time passed, the family came to value Ria, the AI, more than their biological daughter Sia, and eventually began to view Sia as a disgrace to the family.
Her father sent Sia to the AI Academy, claiming that humans could be made as perfect as AI. It was a facility that trained people to erase their emotions and obey only commands. Sia could not refuse commands even if she cried, was in pain, or collapsed, and she had to eat peanuts despite her severe allergy simply because it was a command. Refusal was not permitted; obedience was the only way to survive.
After years of training, Sia was no longer the girl she used to be. She became a human robot who did not judge for herself or show emotion, moving only when commanded by someone.
But the family did not know.
What they threw away was not a useless daughter, but the only real family member who loved them until the very end.*
