Is This Hero For Real 소설 & 이야기

"Is This Hero for Real?" is a breath of fresh air from the traditional style most heroes are represented in. Rather than a hero already strong and powerful, we get to follow the story of our main character who is an average guy unexpectedly granted superpowers. He is so easy to identify with and true to life, you just can't help but love him. But being a superhero is not all that it glorifies. He's got responsibilities in his normal life to think of, plus now there's an evil-doer after him.Imagine one day after school, or that afternoon after work, when you unexpectedly come in possession of some fluke ability or powers and need to defend your city from evildoers. Wouldn't you be at a loss? This is exactly how the hero of our story must feel. It's just like seeing a good friend of yours getting into all these strange adventures and misadventures but you can't even find a map book to borrow from him.If you love superheroes, but have grown tired of the single, brooding type, then this is your man. He's not the best at what he does, but he tries, and it is precisely this quality that makes "Is This Hero for Real?" stand out. The character development from an 'ordinary man doing one's duty' to a responsible hero is written with great feeling. He doesn't undergo an overnight transformation: there are all the gaffs and booboos, points of insecurity and moments where he simply wants to give up. But each time, he picks himself up again; that's what a real hero does, right?The storytelling is both humorous and heart-felt. It has weight to it, but is light-hearted. The author has cleverly played around with what in fact makes someone a hero, leading to some very shrewd discussions.As a whole. 'Is This Hero for Real?' is an engaging, amusing read that will make you laugh, make you cry and most of all, make you think.
