Edwin is dad to his 5-month-old son.
In this episode, Edwin wades through the fog and “firsts” of early fatherhood. Blurry-eyed and sleep deprived, Edwin explains how he and his wife share the demands (and the doting) in these early days; the importance of paternity leave for perspective and prioritization; and how he plans to sidestep traditional “Korean dad” tendencies through open affection and open-mindedness when it comes to his son’s career choices.
