Mr. Time Stop who transferred to a different school.
They hid his face, which means, he is probably still around and we probably saw him in earlier episodes too.
That student probably knows a lot, as in, a LOT. Mr. Time Stop seems to be observing. I think he only made it appear that he is unqualified and transferred, but in reality, he is still in the school, watching, observing.
Another thing, when he stops time, it seems he has another ability, manipulation or convincing. Because after he stopped the time, the PE Teacher changed his tone; instead of convincing the student to stay, he just agreed.
Mr. Time Stop did something during that period he stopped the time. He changed the PE teacher's mind.
So, if a child's parents are both superhumans, the child inherits both. Like Mr. Flying Kid also have super hearing like his mother.
If only 1 parent is superhuman, the child is 50% superhuman. Ms. Self-healing doesn't have the physical strength of her father, that is also common with 100% superhumans. She only inherited her father's self-healing.
That means, Mr. Electric Bus Driver, also only acquired his father's electric powers but not the physical strength and speed, that's why he was easily defeated with his first encounter.
It also explains what they were talking about when they were looking down on the American hunter (in the early episodes), because the 100% superhumans understood the secret of being children, to be 100% superhuman descendant, both parents should be superhuman too, otherwise, they're 50% only.
Eventually it gets diluted.
It also appears that a descendant acquires the main ability of their parent, the first to be sacrified is physical strength and physical speed. Maybe, if they train well for years, they can gain a portion of their missing strength and speed.
The real question now is, how did superhumans started in the first place? From what the North Koreans hinted at, it was because of one South Korean that the NoKors started to develop their own superhuman program.
That implies, it's all about blood and genetics.
If so. Who was the first superhuman? And who spread the genes?
Basically, the grandfather is staying aloof with the FL, so he can stay focus on his quest in proving the Assemblyman killed his daughter.
If he started to build his relationship with his granddaughter, he might start thinking to let everything go “for the sake of his granddaughter” and not achieve justice for his daughter's death.
That must be very hard for the grandfather. He had to keep her daughter's only child at arms length just to keep going with his investigation. The granddaughter who keeps reminding him of his daughter. The granddaughter who can make him happy because, in a way, his daughter lives in her.
But, he has to do it to keep his resolve, as well as to protect her and his other daughter.
That was a good background story for the grandfather. I like it.
And how they showed the grandfather cares so much about his granddaughter when she showed up with blood over her, also revealed how much he cares about her, and how he was just forcing himself to keep her at a distance. That moment, he was crushed.
Which was also no doubt the reason he turned his investigation over to the police. When he saw his granddaughter with blood over her (and probably ignored him as well), he realised he has no more time in the world and yet kept his own family away from him. That even though he cares so much about them, his investigation has consumed him and it cracked their relationship.
Great writing for me. It's not every day that you see something this deep as a background story for a support character. It's deep and meaningful. It makes us think, “would I make similar decisions if I am in a similar situation?”
If I'm going to pick one thing about this series as a review, it's the flashbacks. They showed us the challenges of living, be it with special powers or as an ordinary human being.
And then they touched on the relationships of adults.
Then parents and their kids.
It is very touching. Every single episode with flashbacks is very touching. The director knows how to create the scenes, and what sequence it should be to capture the audience and deliver the message the writer wants.
Forget about super powers. The flashbacks are more powerful and meaningful than their super powers.
As long as Ma is in control, they still have a chance. At least with the way he acted in the last scenes, it seems…
Yep. It's why I think they're going for the “Venom” route. Ma will start playing justice and only kill criminals, while keeping the evil spirit under his control.
While the Counters are 50-50 with him.
The only question problem is, everytime he consumes a soul, the evil spirit possessing him gets stronger. But if Ma's free will is stronger, he can keep it at bay, at least so far, he is still in control.
As long as Ma is in control, they still have a chance. At least with the way he acted in the last scenes, it seems he realised he was dealing with the wrong group of people.
His only target are the ones who made his wife's life harder. He doesn't want any other bloodshed.
From hereon I'm expecting: 1. He'll start to work alone 2. He'll probably act as their pet but is planning on how to take them down 3. Probably get in touch with the Counters to form some truce until they take down the evil spirits 4. He'll turn into a special Counter / Evil Spirit. IF he can prove he can be in control. 5. If number 4 is possible, since he's an evil spirit, he'll be hunted. But since he's in control, he'll do "justice".
Sort of like Chaotic Evil or Neutral Evil. Like Venom. The host and possession are using each other. The host is keeping them in control. And the possession can get their "food" whenever the host kills the criminals.
They have an ace student.

Another thing is, I think the Americans were only targeting the old cohort, and have a different plan for the 2nd generation.
