Moving Beyond

• Jae-man and Ju-won being the best fathers they can with their constraints is the core undercurrent in Episode 14. Parenting relationships continue to be well sketched out - whether it’s Ju-won with Hui-Soo or Mi-Hyun with Bong Seok or Jae-man with Kang Hoon. We see different parenting styles, all driven by the same core values of love and protection.
• Moving reinforces the recurring theme that beyond superpowers and circumstances, it's the power of love that actually drives people to be heroes.
• The excellent writing and script demands that we know how BTS the show came together to create magic
