My Father, My Hero: ReelShort Drama Guide
On this page
My Father, My Hero is a 72-episode ReelShort drama about a powerful man who loses his memory and falls into a life far below the one he built. The series follows Warren Davis, a former chairman who becomes a porter at the hotel he founded. The setup gives the story its central tension: the man at the center of the hotel no longer knows he owns it.
What Is the Story?
After Warren Davis falls into the water, he loses his memory. He does not return to his old office or his old authority. Instead, he becomes a porter at the very hotel he founded. The synopsis describes him enduring humiliation from employees who do not treat him as the chairman he once was. That contrast between old status and new treatment drives the drama.
The title points to a father figure, while the plot summary focuses on memory, identity, and the way people treat someone they believe has no power. Because Warren's past is hidden from him, small scenes carry more weight: a task, a rebuke, or a moment of confusion can mean something different to the viewer than it does to the people around him.
Where to Watch My Father, My Hero
My Father, My Hero streams on ReelShort, its original app. You can find the official series page here: the official ReelShort page. The listing shows 72 episodes and about 22.3 million views. This exact series is not part of the Runotoon library, so the ReelShort app is the place to look for it.
If you are comparing apps, check the episode count before you start. A 72-episode short drama takes more time than a 31-episode series, and the ReelShort page is the source for this title's current episode list.
How Many Episodes Does the Series Have?
ReelShort lists the series at 72 episodes. That is a long run for a short-drama series, and it gives the story room to develop Warren's memory loss and his daily life at the hotel. The episode count is also useful for viewers who want to plan a binge. If you prefer a shorter commitment, the Runotoon titles below have runs of 61, 64, and 31 episodes.
What Themes Drive the Drama?
The synopsis sets up a clear clash between identity and circumstance. Warren was once a chairman. Now he is a porter. He has lost the memory that would explain the gap. The employees around him see a porter, not the founder. The drama can build scenes around that gap without needing a large cast or a complicated world.
The father angle in the title adds another layer. A father is often seen as a source of strength, but this story places the father figure in a position of weakness and confusion. That reversal is the emotional engine. It also gives the title a double meaning: the hero may be a father, and the father may need someone else to see him as a hero when he cannot see it himself.
Is the Series Based on a True Story?
No source in the series facts says it is based on a true story, so it should be treated as fiction. The synopsis is specific about Warren's fall into the water, his memory loss, and his job at the hotel, but it does not name a real hotel, a real city, or a real person. Viewers who want the exact plot should watch the episodes on ReelShort rather than rely on summaries. Short dramas often move quickly, and a summary cannot capture every scene.

What Should You Know Before You Start?
The main thing to know is that My Father, My Hero is a ReelShort title, not a Runotoon title. That matters if you have been searching across apps and found a mix of results. The official ReelShort page is the safest place to check the episode count. The series facts also show a large view count, which suggests the story has found an audience on that app.
If you like memory-loss dramas, status reversals, or stories about a father figure who is not recognized for who he is, the premise is easy to understand. If you want a shorter series, the Runotoon picks above are an alternative.
