'The Return of Superman' (directed by Kim Young-min, hereafter 'Superman') has been beloved by the public for 13 years since it first aired in 2013. In the second and third weeks of June 2023, 'Superman' Jung-woo proved to be the youngest and most talked-about sibling by ranking in the top 10 for two consecutive weeks in appearance popularity in the TV-OTT institutional sector. (according to Good Data Corporation) Additionally, in July, it received the 'Presidential Citation' commemorating the 14th 'Population Day', showcasing the dignity of 'national parenting entertainment.'
Today's (3rd) broadcast of 'Superman' episode 588 is titled 'Peek-a-boo~ Our Baby!', featuring the three MCs Park Soo-hong, Choi Ji-woo, and Ahn Young-mi along with Superman Shim Hyung-tak and Supermom Kim Yoon-ji.
Meanwhile, Haru is attracting attention with visuals that follow in the footsteps of Park Bo-gum and Cha Eun-woo's flower boy image. Haru, who is growing differently every day, has had a 200-day commemorative photoshoot. Wearing a hanbok especially gifted by hanbok designer Park Sul-nyuh and fully adorned with a traditional cap and socks, his radiant beauty makes Park Soo-hong exclaim, 'There's something about Haru's face!' in excitement as he continually admires Haru's visuals.
Dressed as a 'concept fairy', Haru dons a hakama, a traditional Japanese clothing, following his hanbok, smiling brightly and radiating overwhelming cuteness. Additionally, with his lush hair, Haru has been nicknamed after 'Monchhichi,' transforming into a 'human Monchhichi', boasting an astounding synchronization rate of 200% where it's hard to distinguish if he is a doll or a person. Furthermore, true to his father's interests as an 'animation enthusiast', he transformed into Vegeta from 'Dragon Ball', continuing a special photoshoot with his dad, causing Choi Ji-woo to say, 'Oh my, he's so cute!' as she becomes smitten with Haru.
On another note, Shim Hyung-tak's enthusiastic parenting is expected to bring laughter. He not only personally prepares customized outfits for Haru but also kneels on the ground to gently soothe him in case he cries during the shoot, even passionately singing Haru's favorite songs as a dad's BGM. As Haru enjoys the photoshoot with a cheerful smile that seems to appreciate his dad's efforts, Shim Hyung-tak asks the photographer, 'How's Haru's condition and visuals, percentage-wise?' revealing his proud dad side, and after receiving the response 'visuals in the top 1%, condition in the top 1%', he bursts into laughter, making everyone around him smile.
The 200-day commemorative photos of Haru, who follows in the footsteps of Park Bo-gum and Cha Eun-woo as a 'man of the future,' along with Shim Hyung-tak's sweet moments as a father, can be confirmed in today's (3rd) broadcast of 'Superman.'
