This comes with the Frozen ride. It says Hans punishment was penance. That means he chose to do it and maybe chose the punishment himself. He wants to make up for what he did wrong, which shows he does show remorse. He have gotten some clues and rumors that he will be redeemed in the sequel, this just adds to it, Hans haters.



Interesting thought. However, the cynic in me is saying that whoever wrote the “newspaper article” was just trying to use a synonym for “punishment” (so as to sound more “old-fashioned”) and was oblivious to the more nuanced definition of penance. [I’d love to be wrong, though.]
