Jee-Yun Buckley Han is the daughter of Maddie and Howard Han. Her first appearance was in Blindsided.
History[]
During the pregnancy, Maddie and Chimney struggled to find a name for their unborn daughter. After her birth, Maddie spoke to Anne Lee, Chimney's mother-figure, about their newborn baby and Albert.
She is born in Blindsided when Maddie goes into labor at work. However, Maddie made it to the hospital and gave birth with Chimney at her side. Her parents were overjoyed though they were also dealing with her Uncle Albert being injured by a drunk driver. Her parents struggled to name her but after a talk with Mrs. Lee, Maddie decides to name their daughter after Chimney's late mother, Jee-Yun, after hearing Anne talked about how she wished Jee-Yun were here to see her granddaughter.
In Survivors, it starts to become clear that Maddie is suffering with her mental health post Jee-Yun's birth. She quits her job, and she asks Chimney for help which we learn they sought out, and she has received a diagnosis for Postpartum Depression by Panic. Unfortunately, there is a citywide blackout in LA and not only does Maddie's doctor's appointment in which she was going to discuss her medication not working, get cancelled, but it also isolates her even further whilst Chimney is busy at work. In Desperate Times a medicated and exhausted Maddie is giving Jee-Yun a bath when she falls asleep for just a second and Jee slips under the water. Maddie immediately gets her out of the tub and takes her to the hospital. However Maddie blames herself, and she takes Jee-Yun to the firehouse, leaving Chimney a video message telling him that Jee is not safe with her, and she leaves.
As of Boston, six months have passed and Jee-Yun and Chimney have been in Boston for a few months, staying with Chimney's former co-worker Eli Cobb. It is revealed in the episode that once Maddie had left Jee-Yun at the firehouse, she had attempted suicide and has been in treatment for her depression at a hospital in Boston. Maddie and Chimney find each other again during the St. Patrick's Day Parade, and she sees her daughter for the first time in six months, met with the reality of how much she has grown in that time period. Chimney brings Jee-Yun to see Maddie, and in an attempt to calm her daughter down, she sings to Jee-Yun who speaks and calls her "Mama" for the first time, leaving her surprised that she remembers her, but Chimney tells her “six months, six years, neither of us could ever forget you.”
During What's Your Fantasy?, she is watched by her Uncle Buck whilst her parents are house hunting, and she proves just how much of a chaotic toddler she has grown into. We see her with her parents as she refuses to sleep in her new living room bedroom, offering some of her comedic Han nature as she appears to appetite every time they turn around.
In In a Flash, her parents prepare to welcome her maternal grandparents come down to meet her for the first time and when they arrive, they dote on her. Her Uncle Albert comes down from Korea and brings his and Chim's father to meet his granddaughter.
