Question about a statement concerning normal subgroups

I'm asking the following: it is true that if $K$ is a normal subgroup of $G$ and $Kleq Hleq G$ then $K$ is normal in $H$? I tried to prove it but I failed to do so, so I'm starting to suspect that it is not true. Can you provide me a proof or a counterexample of this statement or hint about its proof?

          Hint:



          You know that



          $$;Klhd Gimplies g^{-1}kgin K;,;;text{for all elements};;kin K,,,,gin G;$$



          Now, $;Hsubset G; $, so...

            It is trivially true because $Ktrianglelefteq G$ is equivalent to $gKg^{-1}=K,,forall gin G$. This condition is met $forall gin H$, as $Hsubset G$. Note we do not need normality of $H$.

              Oh, now I get it! Since $H$ is a subgroup of $G$ and $gkg^(-1)$ belongs to $K$ for all $g$ in $G$ it also holds for all $h$ in $H$.
