The swimming instructor noted that Min had excellent physical abilities and swimming skills, and if he gains enough experience, he has great potential. Oh Yoon-ah expressed her overwhelming emotion, stating that this was the first time she had heard such hopeful news while raising her child.

With the support of Min's friends' mothers and teachers, Oh Yoon-ah expressed her determination to do her best to support her son's dream, believing that this new goal could be a significant opportunity for him.

Her maternal love, which constantly seeks to open new paths for her son's growth, resonates deeply with viewers, providing them with comfort.
