It is an honor to bring their stories to a global audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat drew us to this series was not only the craft, but the intimacy of the human journeys behind it,\u201d said Karen Seah, executive producer at Refinery Media. \u201cThese are stories of heritage carried forward, artistry enduring against the odds, and innovation sparked by resilience. At Refinery, we are dedicated to telling stories that connect across cultures and generations\u2014and <em>Man of the Hour<\/em> does exactly that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur audiences turn to Discovery for experiences that surprise, inspire and connect them to worlds they might never encounter,\u201d said Lynn Ng, head of content for AsiaPacnetworks at Warner Bros.
