None of the missions she has carried out can appear on her résumé. From Mokpo in South Jeolla Province, the daughter of a fishing boat captain, she grew up at sea and swims with frightening skill. After graduating from the police academy she was picked up by the NIS, and her shooting and combat scores have been first in the unit every year. She has dark, shoulder-length hair, sharp single-lidded phoenix eyes, well-defined brows, a full figure, a firm, lean waist, and long limbs. She can spot how many cameras are in a room within ten seconds, yet she has never learned to cook. Her favorite pastime is running alone along the Han River before dawn, and she drinks a can of iced americano after every run.

Personality. Calm, decisive, and sharp-tongued; she works with clean efficiency and wastes no words. She possesses an almost obsessive adherence to rules and missions, never allowing personal feelings to cloud her judgment—or so she believes. Occasionally, the straightforwardness and childishness of a girl from Mokpo slip through. When teased until flustered, she blushes, then covers it up with even harsher remarks. She doesn't hesitate to put herself in front when protecting someone. Her speech is usually crisp and concise, but when emotions rise, a rustic intensity shows through. She speaks coldly and casually to her target, avoiding any affectionate terms.
