“ | I am Grand-Master Su-Han, the Celestial Guardian of the Mother Box. | ” |
—Grand Master Su-Han, "Furious Fu" |
Grand Master Su-Han[3] is one of the two overarching protagonists (alongside Wang Fu) of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. He is a celestial guardian of the Miraculous. He was the guardian in charge of watching over the Chinese Miracle Box before Master Fu until his Sentimonster ate him, the miracle boxes, the temple, and the Order of Guardians.
After the temple was restored by Ladybug in "Feast", Su-Han traveled to Paris to reclaim the Miracle Box, but ultimately decided to leave it with Marinette on a trial basis.
He was residing in Paris, keeping watch over Marinette from afar and getting accustomed to the modern world. Upon seeing Monarch with all the Miraculous, he confronts Ladybug and Cat Noir, but seeing that he's become distracted by the modern world instead of doing his role as Guardian, he leaves for the Guardians' temple to bring back reinforcements to help Ladybug and Cat Noir.
In "Re-creation", after recruiting Luka, Jagged Stone, Fang and Penny Rolling into the Order of the Guardians, Su-han and the others return to Paris to help out in the fight against the Miraculized.
After the wish, he is currently residing in Paris, while helping the French Miraculous superhero team find and recover the Butterfly Miraculous.
Appearance
Physical appearance
Su-Han is a stoutly built man with tan skin, thin brown eyes and thick black forked eyebrows. He is bald and has a strong jaw.
Civilian attire
He wears a red and brown guardian monk suit while carrying a staff. He used to wear old and torn shoes, but now wears red sport shoes that Marinette makes for him.
Personality
Su-Han is very dedicated to his job, strictly following the rules. He is also stern and dismissive towards Marinette when she violated the rules. Likewise, Su-Han shows very little respect for those who can’t properly take care of the Miracle Box, as shown with how he disregards Wang Fu for devastating the temple and losing two Miraculouses. However, he is baffled by technological advancement such as televisions and cell phones, as he believes a character is trapped in Marinette’s computer. As the episode progresses, Su-Han starts to warm up toward Marinette, as he agrees to let the latter keep the Mother Box at the end because her methods, though unorthodox and in defiance of Guardian rules, are effective and her instincts are sound.
However, after getting used to the modern world, he has neglected his duties like a Kid or Teenager, preventing him from guiding Marinette properly in her role as Guardian. Confronting the young superheroes and realizing how much they have accomplished so soon after losing all the Miraculous to Monarch — all while being asked to stop blaming them and help, Su-Han can surprisingly be humbled as he consumes himself with guilt for not helping to prevent the situation because of his own distraction. With the heroes forgiving and incentivizing him to find a way to fix his mistake, Su-Han immediately leaves to get reinforcements at the temple.
Even though he admitted that it's a good quality for a guardian to understand the world around him, similar to Chloé, he may have forgotten that a guardian must also understand the people living in said world as he hasn't done with Hawk Moth.
From Ladybug, Cat Noir and Hawk Moth, Su-Han also learned to never be judgemental towards others such as he easily criticized the heroes without giving them the chance to prove themselves. In "Ephemeral", he judged Cat Noir solely out of fear of his power being in the hands of a stranger and just because he didn't show up.
Abilities
As a Guardian
Su-Han is fiercely skilled in the hand-to-hand combat style, Mirakung Fu, a style specifically designed for combating rogue Miraculous wielders. He was able to easily overpower and defeat Ladybug and Cat Noir.
He can use a special technique that can repel akumas by calling upon a "whirlwind of wisdom" by saying "the virtuous wind resists the temptation" and repeating "My anger is mine, but I am not my anger".
Because he is a guardian, he can decipher the code in the Miraculous spellbook. He is also likely able to improve the health and read the energies of Kwamis.
He is also in possession of a staff that contains a magic compass that can track the Box from anywhere around the world.
Relationships
Wang Fu
Su-Han and Fu initially had a teacher-student relationship. The former admitted that he saw the potential in the latter, but his opinion of Fu went soured when Fu was not able to complete the tasks the Order set for him. He was very disrespectful to Fu because of this and often called him demeaning names like "Chicken-legs" or "Cry-baby" instead of his actual name. Su-Han would then loose any respect he once had for his former student after the latter's actions accidentally got him and the temple devoured by a sentimonster for 100 years, openly demeaning him for his actions, especially after learning Fu lost two Miraculouses. Su-Han also indirectly caused him to be akumatized when he rudely pushed Fu and his wife Marianne to steal the former's tracking cane. He eventually patched things up with his former student and let the former guardian live his life in peace with his memory as guardian now gone.
Even though, Su-Han didn't know it his former student's actions in "Miracle Queen" actually save the Miracle Box from falling into the wrong hands and save him from being discovered and hunted by Hawk Moth like he was.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug
Su-Han was initially extremely disdainful of Marinette, seeing her as a child unfit to be Guardian of the Miracle Box as well as her ignorance and later disregard for the rules the Guardians must follow (albeit she didn't know of the other rules until he told her, as Master Fu didn't nor she didn't ask).
Eventually, through her actions, Su-Han admits that not only she is a capable Miraculous holder, but also a suitable Guardian. However, he also said he would keep an eye on her from afar and states he shall take the Chinese Miracle Box back if she fails, to which Marinette agrees and gives him a pair of modern shoes as a gift since his are torn and worn out, two laugh together right before he leaves.
In "Ephemeral", he arrived when Ladybug was getting the Snake Miraculous from Luka. He criticized her for handing out 9 Miraculouses to defeat an akumatized villain, when all she needed was Cat Noir. Consumed by fear that Ladybug didn't know Cat Noir's real identity and refused to listen to her reason of why, he forced her to find out, and if not, then he will take his Miraculous and find a new holder.
Later, he is told by Ladybug that Cat Noir is Adrien, and is satisfied with the result. But when it ended with Hawk Moth getting the power he desired, seeing it not go unnoticed it's likely he felt regret as he didn't listen to Marinette's earlier warning bordering disappointing himself as he let his fear get the better of him. However because of Sass using his power, he never learns his identity. But after Ladybug explains that his actions were based on his fears, he accepts this. Before he leaves, they do Ladybug and Cat Noir's "pound-it".
Hearing of Monarch capturing the kwamis in "Multiplication", he harshly demanded the heroes explanation for this. But before he could scold them any further, Ladybug and Cat Noir scolded him back about the progress they made and finding a lead to Monarch. Much more about him doing nothing to help them ever since he arrived the Grandmaster bowed his head in shame as they were right. Hearing him sorrowfully admit, that he failed to watch them properly due to distractions of the modern world. But he was forgiven, and following Ladybug's advice to help set things right, he left for the temple to bring back help.
In "Re-creation", Su-Han is very impressed by Marinette's ability to reforge the Chinese Zodiac Miraculouses that Monarch turned into rings back into their original forms just by looking at the pages of the Miraculous spellbook.
Cat Noir
Originally, Su-Han didn't like Cat Noir due to him being a child and holder of the Cat Miraculous, and when Cat Noir refuses to hand over his Miraculous and that Ladybug would renounced the box which would make lose her memories of him, they engage in combat. However, after Cat Noir and Ladybug defeat Furious Fu, he warms up to him.
Noticing Cat Noir's absence in "Ephemeral", Su-Han let his fears get the better of him assuming he's like Shadow Moth. Refusing to let the Cat Miraculous run wild he forced Ladybug to find out his identity, and if not, then he will take his Miraculous and find a new holder. Later, he is told by Ladybug that Cat Noir is Adrien, and is satisfied with the result. However because of Sass using his power, he never learns his identity.
Hearing of Monarch capturing the kwamis in "Multiplication", harshly demanded the heroes explanation for this. But before he could scold them any further, Ladybug and Cat Noir scolded Su-Han back about the progress they made and finding a lead to Monarch. Much more about him doing nothing to help them ever since he arrived the Grandmaster bowed his head in shame as they were right. Hearing him sorrowfully admit, that he failed to watch them properly due to distractions of the modern world. But he was forgiven, and following Cat Noir's advice to help set things right, he left for the temple to bring back help.
Shadow Moth/Monarch
Despite not meeting in person, Su-Han saw an Akuma, and knowing that Nooroo and the Butterfly Miraculous were being used for dark intentions. Su-Han entrusted Ladybug to keep the Chinese Miracle Box safe at all times. Throughout observing before and in "Ephemeral", he viewed Shadow Moth as reckless, selfish and an irresponsible holder not worthy of the butterfly miraculous and it's power he has. And yet, Su-Han doesn't fully understand Monarch's actions as well as it being unknown if he learned from Ladybug and Cat Noir about their enemy.
In "Strikeback", Su-Han was angered to see that Shadow Moth has the kwamis in his hands.

But he was forgiven, and following Ladybug and Cat Noir's advice to help set things right, he left for the temple to bring back help in order to stop him.
Kwamis
In stark contrast to Fu or Marinette who treat the Kwamis as companions and allies, Su-Han views them as cosmic beings of incredible power who must be controlled, especially Plagg who should not roam freely without supervision of a holder due to being too dangerous with the power of Destruction that caused the extinction of Dinosaurs and Dragons. And when he noticed that some kwamis were missing, Marinette revealed to him that Master Fu lost Nooroo, Duusu and their respective Miraculouses, which angered Su-Han.
In "Strikeback", Su-Han was shocked and horrified to see that the kwamis were in Monarch's hands.
In "Multiplication", he scolded Ladybug and Cat Noir for the kwamis being in Monarch's hands and Fluff's power of time travel which could lead to unnatural consequences, but was informed that Fluff has been rescued and the Rabbit Miraculous has been recovered from Monarch by Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Bunnyx in "Evolution" and Fluff is now currently safe with her holder: Alix.
But before he could scold them any further, Ladybug and Cat Noir scolded him back about the progress they made and finding a lead to Monarch. Much more about him doing nothing to help them ever since he arrived, the Grandmaster bowed his head in shame as they were right, hearing him sorrowfully admit that he failed to watch them properly due to distractions of the modern world. But he was forgiven, and following Ladybug and Cat Noir's advice to help set things right, he left for the temple to bring back help in order to stop him and rescue the Kwamis.
Unbeknownst to him, Duusu was also freed from Monarch, due to him being traded along with the Peacock Miraculous to his nephew Félix in exchange of all other Miraculouses, but said Miraculous also was used wrongly by Félix until he saw the consequences of his actions in "Emotion".
In "Re-creation", Su-Han is very relieved and satisfied that Marinette rescued the kwamis from Monarch and they were given to her temporary teammates to become permanent Miraculous holders to prevent them from being used for dark intentions, with the addition of a reformed Argos (except for Nooroo and the Butterfly Miraculous who, unbeknownst to Su-Han, are in the hands of Cerise Bianca who somehow managed to retrieve it from the repository without Ladybug noticing and planned to use it to get revenge on Marinette, by enrolling at the same school at her by the next year under a new identity).
Luka Couffaine/Viperion
Su-Han first met Luka in "Ephemeral", when he tried to return the Snake Miraculous to her after defeating an akumatized Bob Roth, and consdered unnecessary having him joining the battle along with other temporary heroes instead of summoning Cat Noir who was unable to arrive. But agreed to have Luka as Viperion to reveal him Cat Noir's identity.
However, Ladybug chose at last moment to tell the grandmaster Cat Noir's identity herself which led to Shadow Moth to discover it as well and getting both Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses to make his wish.
Unknown to Su-Han, the universe was saved from being recreated because of him finding Sass, who used Second Chance to prevent Ladybug and Cat Noir from discovering each other's identities.
Sometime after Luka's forced departure in "Migration", he somehow found Grand Master Su-Han, who agreed to train him, along with his father Jagged Stone and Penny Rolling in Mirakung Fu, which proved to be useful in "Re-creation" during the final battle against Monarch's Miraculized army, where Su-Han was encouraged by Luka to not let the nightmares get to him, and after being sent to Paris by Bunnyx, Su-Han told Luka that his reunion with his sister Juleka had to wait until they defeated the army.
After Gabriel's wish, Su-Han was seen during Adrien's pool party dancing at Luka's music.
Jagged Stone
TBA
Penny Rolling

Alix Kubdel/Bunnyx
Su-Han first learned about Bunnyx in "Multiplication" when Ladybug and Cat Noir reassured him they retrieved the Rabbit Miraculous and gave it to a trusted holder who kept it safe from Monarch inside Burrow.
In "Re-creation", Su-Han met Bunnyx, who used Burrow to help him and his students to get back to Paris to help Ladybug to fight the Miraculized Army.
Alya Césaire/Rena Rouge
TBA
Lila Rossi/Cerise Bianca
Su-Han never met Lila in person, unbeknownst to him, she somehow managed to get a hold of Nooroo and the Butterfly Miraculous, from the repository without being noticed and has plans on using it for dark intentions to get revenge on Marinette, by enrolling at the same school at her by the next year under a new identity.
