Punishment Episode 1 Introduction: Marin is a child from a poor rural family who lost his father at an early age and has been relying on his mother Zayna ever since. Marin has always had a noble ambition: to leave the village, go to the capital Jakarta, and make a name for himself in order to repay his mother for raising him. He repeatedly proposed this idea to his mother, but Zayna hoped that Marin would abandon this thought; she did not want to lose her son. Lili and Marin grew up together, and Lili harbors deep feelings for Marin. However, Marin treats Lili coldly, as he detests Lili's father, Salim. Marin hates Salim because he is the wealthy landlord of the village who cheats the villagers and especially has ill intentions towards Marin's mother. Marin once witnessed Salim humiliating his own mother.
