Evidence: Kim began his next series, Father (1986–90), after he reunited with his father following the success of Psychopaths. He didn't consider the series, which depicted "the continuity of time" from generation to generation within his family, to be a significant artistic achievement, but thought it helped him "return...to [his] roots" and become "mentally independent."
