Daddy has lots of things do not know because he is a daddy, but there are lots of things that he can do as a daddy.  

Captain Song, Song Il Gook, and his triplet sons, Daehan, Mingook, and Manse went to a water park in KBS2 variety KBS2 ‘Happy Sunday- Superman Returns (hereinafter: Superman),’ aired on Aug 3.   

In the episode, Song Il Gook visited a water park with his triplets saying “I wish my kids get used to being around water. I hope we can do swim together later. That’s why I brought them to the fountain and to the river on a boat. After this? Ocean waves! ,” which led laughs of the audiences.  

Soon after, however, Song was facing unexpected difficulties. As soon they arrived at the water part, his triplets started ‘here and there and everywhere.’ The first son, Daehan walked into the water by himself, which seemed to be okay with water. Brother copycat, Mingook, also walked into the water, following his brother, Daehan and went down the slide. The youngest, Manse, who scares to be around water most, however, stuck to his daddy, clinging to his daddy’s neck.  

Song Il Gook tried to help the triplets go down on the slide, making them more get used to being around water. Soon, however, he came across a happening. During the instant, taking his eyes off Manse, he drank water, whil e he was pawing the air to get out of the water. Song Il Gook grasped Manse as soon as possible and checked his breath. It was no big deal, but seeing from his ashy face, we can tell how much he got shocked.  

Song Il Gook, however, did not give up. As like a superman daddy, he started to figure out the ways the triplets can enjoy water safely. He made so called, Song’s boat- connect 3 car shaped tubes with a rope. For this, Manse who scares of being around water could play in the water with Daehan and Mingook. Also, Song Il Gook Showed off super power to lift the triplets in his arms  to make them safe in the water where his triplets cannot get to their feet to the floor.  

Obviously, daddy’s ways of raising child is different from that of mommy’s. Mommy can think far beyond that daddy cannot, but daddy can do what mommy’s cannot do. Song Il Gook has made the audiences laugh with daddy’s child nursing-lifting the triplets in his arms, making Song’s boat, and more that mommy cannot do. At the same time, he has made the audiences to expect to see him learning by doing and becoming a real ‘superman daddy.’
