The superhero is a really popular figure in the West. In Asia or Korea, the young viewers are amused by the figure, but it is not really so sensational.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It has occurred to me that the superhero really only originates in America. That seems to be the only country that has produced this phenomenon.
Most superhero characters we see these days are from foreign countries. I would like to play a superhero that shows off Korean power.
Most superheroes are painted with a specific moral objective that makes them who they are. And that moral objective influences everything they do, so there's an expectation for what you're going to see out of a certain character.
I don't really think that very much is interesting about the superhero as an archetype.
Superheroes fill a gap in the pop culture psyche, similar to the role of Greek mythology. There isn't really anything else that does the job in modern terms. For me, Batman is the one that can most clearly be taken seriously.
Superheroes are best imagined in comic books. The union between the written word, the image, and then what your imagination has to do to connect those allows for so much.
There's something about the superheroes and the idea behind their relationship with humans, whether it's a metaphor for the better part of ourselves, or the more flawed part of ourselves. So it seems to really be our own pop-culture version of Greek mythology.
I have never met a superhero, but why are we so obsessed with superheroes?
Superheroes were created in America, they're most popular in America, and at their best, they embody American ideals.
I cannot stand superheroes. I do not understand any of its appeal. It has just bored me to death since I was a little kid.
