Today on the Auracle, I’m talking about Jin Lee from Turning Red—Mei’s dad, a talented cook, a gardening enthusiast, and a man who somehow stays calm while the rest of the Lee family is operating at maximum volume.
He’s not out here trying to become the main character. He’s just making dinner, enjoying his donuts, and doing his best to keep up with Ming’s plans. Honestly, relatable.
But behind that quiet personality is someone who makes a huge difference in Mei’s life. He’s part of the family that makes her feel at home, and sometimes, that’s more important than any big heroic moment.
So today, I’m giving this underrated dad his moment in the spotlight.
Because not every hero saves the world. Some just make the family feel like home.
And yes, we’re talking about the donut scene. 🍩
Welcome back to Auracle — Season 2.
