A Perfect Masterpiece

Story: The story revolves around parents and their children who both have superpowers. It revolves around the relationship between them and what the parents would do to protect and keep their children safe.

Characters: This story involves multiple main characters, the focus changes from one character to other in every few episodes.

Kim Bong Seok: He is a very well mannered adorable guy who has power to fly and has super five senses.

Jang Hee Soo: She is a girl who has ability to heal herself really quick. She is very determined and can't stand injustice.

Jang Joo Won: He is the father of Hee Soo with same power for whom his daughter is everything. He is also funny and clueless with directions.

Li Mi Hyun: She is the mother of Bong Seok and has super five senses. She has been raising her son alone for many years and is very protective of him. She is also someone with no nonsense attitude.

Lee Kang Hoon: He is in same school and grade as Bong Seok and Hee Soo. He has superhuman strength and speed. He is quite and likes to be on his own but also wants to be friends with people like him.

Kim Doo Shik: He is the father of Bong Seok and husband of Mi Hyun. He has the power to fly and was top agent of NIS. He is very loving,awkward sometimes and caring person.

Lee Jae Man: He is the father of Jang Hoon and is mentally disabled. He is very loving father and husband who will destroy anyone who try to harm his wife or son. He has super human strength and speed.

There are many other characters as well, few with powers and others are just normal. Above are the some main characters who had great involvement in the story.

Actor: Every actor played the role they were given as if it was made for them. They had great chemistry with eachother and knew how to act on a greenscreen.

Genres:
The main focus are Action, Thrill, Mystery, Family and Friendship.
This also involves two great romances between the parents and also a slight growing feelings between Bong Seok and Hee Soo. There are some comedy scenes as well and also has a good amount of Gore.

Likes:
1. Great relationship between the parents and their children. The parents are very supportive and protective of their kids where as the children loves their parents very much, has respect for them and would try to make their parents life happy.
2. Friendship between Bong Seok and Hee Soo. They quickly became friends who trust eachother very much that they share their deepest secrets as well. They are very protective and supportive of eachother and it is shown that they also like eachother.
3. Amazing action. The action scenes are filled with many one on one fights and one vs many fights. Which makes the good guys(parent) really cool. Last three episodes were full action packed and had really good fights. Kim Doo Shik's action scenes are something you should look forward to.
4. Amazing Romance: Even though this is not a romance drama we have two beautiful and heartfelt love stories between Kim Doo Shik-Lee Mi Hyun and Jang Joo Won-Hwang Ji Hee(JW's wife).
5. Great direction and story telling.
6. Many "Bad guys" aren't actually bad but they are same as our main characters who are forced to do things by some people. You can sympathise and will feel for them.
7. People with superpowers are not superheroes but are just human beings.
8. A very good, happy and satisfying ending.
Special mentions: Beautiful relationship between Jae Man and Kang Hoon, Gye Doo and his backstory, well placed mystery and thrill and very well done backstories.

Dislikes: There is nothing to dislike. Maybe the episodes could have been a little bit more longer.

Overall: This is a great drama with everything in it, you will cry, smile, feel sad, happy, feel for the bad guys, even root for small characters. The story is told in a well systematic manner with timely inclusion of flashbacks and backstories.

Cast related random thoughts:
Go Youn Jung: She is very talented actor who is also very beautiful. She could become a big star like Han Hyo Joo in future.
Zo In Sung: Even though he was present in less than 7 episodes he did a great job . This shows that actors like him don't mind not getting much screentime if the character they are playing is very appealing.
Kim Sung Kyun: Whenever he is present he becomes the highlight of the scene. Same as In Sung.
This drama involves three A listers and as expected you will get a stellar performance not only by them but also by the new upcoming actors.
