| “ | I am Grand-Master Su-Han, the Celestial Guardian of the Mother Box. | „ |
| ~ Grandmaster Su-Han |
Su-Han is one of the two overarching protagonists (alongside Master Fu) of the Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir franchise.
He is a celestial guardian of the Miraculous. Likewise, he is a traditionalist and initially disapproves of Marinette, before she wins him over and he admits that her methods work. 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 in order to keep 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 Monarch. After Monarch's wish and subsequent sacrifice, Su-Han is currently residing in Paris, while helping the French Miraculous Superhero Team find and recover the Butterfly Miraculous.
He is voiced by Gauthier Battoue in the original French and Kaiji Tang in the English version.
Appearance[]
Su-Han is a light-skinned elderly man who has a stoutly built body, brown eyes and thick black forked eyebrows. He is bald and has a strong jaw. Additionally, Su-Han wears a darkish-red guardian monk suit while carrying a staff. He also used to wear old and torn shoes until Marinette gave him a new pair of shoes to replace them at the end of his debut episode.
Story[]
Backstory[]
Su-Han was the one who trained Wang Fu to be a guardian. He called him disparaging names, such as “Whiny Chicken Legs,” because he did not do his training properly like watching the Miracle Box without eating for 24 hours and finger pushups. One day he trained Fu to watch the Miracle Box without eating for 24 hours. Fu used the Peacock Miraculous to create a Sentimonster as a companion to fetch him some rice balls, but due to Fu's anger towards the Miraculous, the Sentimonster ate Su-Han, the monks, and the Miracle Boxes and they became trapped inside it, leaving Fu as the last guardian.
However, 175 years and a half later, in "Feast", Su-Han, the other guardians and their temple were restored by Ladybug, after she and Cat Noir managed to defeat the titular Sentimonster. And offscreen and guided by his staff, Su-Han traveled on foot from Tibet to Paris to retrieve the Chinese Miracle Box.

In "Furious Fu", Su-Han is first seen spying on Marinette at the Gare du Nord in a trashcan, and at the Seine on a scooter. He later confronts Marinette in her room as he holds the Chinese Miracle Box and Barkk. After Marinette starts to become angry and confused, he explains that he found her with the Guardians' staff which holds a compass that tracks the Miracle Boxes. He proceeds to tell Marinette that she is not a true guardian based on the appearance of the Miracle Box, as well as calls Master Fu 'Whiny Chicken Legs' and insults him. As Marinette tries to defend Master Fu, Su-Han realizes that a few of the kwami's are missing, which Marinette tells him that Master Fu had lost the Butterfly Miraculous and the Peacock Miraculous but not the Cat Miraculous since she knows that Plagg has a holder. Su-Han is upset by this and reads 3 precepts that he believes Marinette and Master Fu have broken and thinks which is why they were not up for the role of being a guardian. He then orders Marinette to take him to Cat Noir.
Su-Han begins to fight two teen superheroes.
Once Su-Han sees that said superhero is another teen, he becomes frustrated, introduces himself as the celestial guardian of the Mother Box and orders them to hand over their Miraculouses then tells them that he would hand them over to adults to take care of Shadow Moth. Ladybug and Cat Noir both adamantly refuse, and Su-Han begins to fight the two teen superheroes, swiftly gaining an upper hand. Ladybug and Cat Noir then escape with the Miracle Box and Su-Han’s staff with Su-Han tracking down Fu. He then finds Fu and Marianne and tries to take his cane, and then sees an akuma sent from Shadow Moth, but Su-Han stops the akuma, and takes Fu's cane. However, Fu, upset about Su-Han pushing down Marianne and taking his cane, tries to get his cane back, but ends getting akumatized right in front of Su-Han, who runs off to track down Ladybug & Cat Noir again. Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Su-Han then meet again at the stadium where they're introduced to Fu who is now Furious Fu. Furious Fu then centers a thunderstorm around the stadium fighting Ladybug, Cat Noir and Su-Han. They then race to the Miracle Box where Cat Noir accidentally kicks the Box like they are playing soccer and then focuses again.
Su-Han fights against Furious Fu.
Furious Fu then uses a teleportation card causing him to get hold of the Miracle Box. Though saying that Guardians were trained to fight rebel Miraculous holders, not villains created by their powers, Su-Han eventually fights Furious Fu but ends up freezing like a statue. Ladybug then summons her Lucky Charm to distract Furious Fu long enough for Marianne to arrive and break his paintbrush in half, which contained the akuma and de-akumatized Fu. Ladybug then gives him a Magical Charm, saying it will now prevent Shadow Moth from akumatizing him. Su-Han then apologizes to Fu for his behavior and Fu accepts it. In Marinette's room, Su-Han is upset about Marinette involving Marianne, a civilian, into the fight, but compliments her about her natural instincts. He says that the Chinese Miracle Box is the most powerful one, holding the most powerful Miraculouses ever, but gives an apology for not trusting her. He leaves the box in her care, but warns that he will be watching over her, and will take the box if she fails once. He then leaves, says he will learn about the modern life, to learn what threats there are. Before leaving, Marinette then gives Su-Han a new pair of shoes, pointing down to his broken sandals and his feet with them laughing.
Ladybug and Su-Han discuss their terms about Cat Noir's identity before the latter hops away out of the sewers.
In "Ephemeral", Su-Han appears in the sewers and rebukes Ladybug for giving out nine Miraculous, even though she needed only Cat Noir and his Cataclysm to defeat the supervillain. Ladybug protests that he was unreachable, but Su-Han counters her by saying that, what if he uses the power of Miraculous for his own good, like Shadow Moth. Ladybug asks what she should do about it, to which Su-Han replies that she should know his identity to control him. Ladybug protests that she can't do it in case Shadow Moth captures any of them, but Su-Han declares that he doesn't care about it and if she does not do it, he will take back the Cat Miraculous and appoint a new Cat Noir. Ladybug thinks of an idea and asks Su-Han if it is fine if he directly knows the identity of Cat Noir. To this, Grandmaster Su-Han agrees and reminds Ladybug that if she fails in that task, the Cat Miraculous will be taken away and Ladybug agrees to it. Then, the celestial guardian hops away out of the sewers.
At the end of the episode, Su-Han asks if she knows the identity of Cat Noir. When Ladybug replies with no, Grandmaster Su-Han begins to berate her, but Ladybug stops him by saying that she doesn't want to know it and doesn't need to know because she is a good Guardian and says that Grandmaster Su-Han's judgement is only based on his fears instead of their actions. Grandmaster Su-Han admits that he is afraid and says that Ladybug is a guardian like no other that he had seen in his time of 100 years being a Guardian. After that, the two do the "Pound It" fist bump.
Season 5[]
Su-Han heading back to the Guardians' temple to get reinforcements in Multiplication.
In "Multiplication", just after Monarch announced having almost all Chinese Zodiac Miraculouses in his hands, Su-Han angrily confronted Ladybug and Cat Noir for this and pointed to the former that she failed in her role as a Guardian and states his worries about Monarch using the Rabbit Miraculous to change the course of time, but the heroes quickly told him that Monarch has already tried that, and reassured him that they managed to retrieve the Rabbit Miraculous and it was currently safe in the hands of a trusted holder and that they had a lead to find the other Chinese Zodiac Miraculouses and asked for his help instead of scolding them, which ashamed Su-Han and kneeling down, he apologized to the heroes for getting distracted by the modern world instead of guiding Ladybug in her guardian role but Ladybug forgave him, reassuring him that everyone makes mistakes and asked him to help them, to which Su-Han agreed and leaped back to the Guardian’s temple to bring back reinforcements to help the duo stop Monarch.
Su-Han, Jagged Stone and Penny Rolling fighting against Monarch's Miraculized army in Rio de Janeiro.
In "Re-creation: The Last Day - Part 2", Su-Han leads Penny Rolling, Jagged Stone and Luka (the three who have recently joined the Miraculous Order) to fight off the Miraculized villains in Rio, but he experiences an nightmare of not comprehending the modern society. Luka tries to reassure his mentor to not let the nightmares get to him, just before present Bunnyx arrives, informing Luka that their Mira Kung-Fu will be more helpful in Paris, so the others and Fang rush into the Burrow. Later on, in downtown, the Resistance evade the Miraculized mob and they're all cornered until Fang saves the group by swiping their pursuers with his tail and Su-Han, Jagged, Penny and Luka rush in thru Bunnyx's Burrow and fights them off with Mira Kung-Fu. Juleka and Luka reunite when the master defends them from one of the Miraculized villain with a flying kick. The United Heroez show up to help, and Doorman safely escorts them in another location. Su-Han asks Knightowl on how does she resist the nightmares and she claims she is the nightmare.
At the end of the episode, Su-Han is very impressed in Marinette's ability to somehow reforge the Chinese Zodiac Miraculous back to their original forms just by looking at the pages of the Miraculous spellbook.
Personality[]
Su-Han is very dedicated at 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 dealt with Shadow Moth.
From Ladybug, Cat Noir and Shadow 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[]
Su-Han repels an akuma.
Su-Han is very proficient 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, Su-Han 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 magical compass that can track down the Chinese Miracle Box from anywhere in the world.
Additionally, Su-Han has superhuman stamina as well as an extremely high level of endurance, a result of his rigorous training as a Celestial Guardian. For example, he traveled all the way from the towering peaks of the highest Tibetan mountains to Paris without showing the slightest sign of fatigue.
