At the very least, it would be entertaining.Charleshttp://www.liminality.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541500.post-13676673804185505662015-09-08T10:07:47.877+09:002015-09-08T10:07:47.877+09:00Yeah, I was hesitant to say "heroes" as ...Yeah, I was hesitant to say "heroes" as well, mainly because my understanding of "주인공" is that you use it when you're talking about, say, the main subject of a photo or the person being feted at a party—neither of which is a particularly heroic concept; a "주인공" is more like "the person we're focusing on." But "hero" was clunky Google's take on "주인공," and I rolled with it.<br /><br />I also agree, given that the sign on the wall refers to "임산부," that "tomorrow's heroes" are most likely still <i>in utero,</i> but those three icons, the holy trinity of preggy-crip-mom, placed right there in the pink zone, throw that notion off a bit.

"Protagonists" sounds too literary. "Leaders" sounds better, and the phrase "tomorrow's leaders" is a common one, but again, not quite sure.)Charleshttp://www.liminality.orgnoreply@blogger.com
