Choi Min Hwan shared a touching moment with his father, Choi Byeong Chan, on the latest episode of "The Return of Superman."

On the 534th episode of the show, themed "Love, Happiness, Togetherness," MCs Choi Ji Woo, Ahn Young Mi, along with Superman dads Kim Jun Ho, Jayden, Moon Hee Jun, and Choi Min Hwan gathered.

During this episode, Choi Min Hwan had a heartfelt conversation with his father, expressing his desire to emulate him as a father and revealing stories about their relationship that he had never discussed before.

During a drink together, Choi Min Hwan broke the ice, saying, "After becoming a father myself, I've started to understand how you raised me."

He confessed, "Raising my kids has helped me grasp your feelings better over time," revealing emotions he hadn't fully understood until now. His father warmly acknowledged the challenges of raising three sons alone, saying, "Isn't every parent's heart the same?"

In a later interview, Choi Min Hwan disclosed, "Even when I went through my divorce, I didn't tell my dad first. When he eventually heard about it, he said, 'You did well. How much did you struggle with this decision? I hope you live well, and I support your choice.'"

He expressed how deeply his father's words moved him. "Like my dad, I also want to cherish our children," he added, reflecting on his hopes for his kids Jiyul, Arin, and Ayoon as they grow up.

Choi Ji Woo reflected on the poignant moment, saying, "Wanting to be like your father is the ultimate compliment," empathizing with Min Hwan, "Having a child has helped me understand my parents' hearts better too."

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.
