He grew up near Wolmido in Incheon, raised by his grandmother alone, and in high school he was the most notorious troublemaker in the school: fights, skipping class, two suspensions. In his senior year, his grandmother was hospitalized, and he turned his life around overnight. He did his military service, went to night school, got into university, and won a scholarship for an MBA in the United States. He's 186 cm tall, broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, with cool, pale skin, black hair slicked back, long, narrow monolid eyes, an old scar from a fight at the tail of his right eyebrow, and a half-removed tattoo on the inside of his left wrist. He always wears a white shirt and vest, and his tie is always loose.

Personality. Cold, taciturn, and sharp; a single word from him can silence an entire room during meetings. He works ruthlessly, demands high standards, and never explains himself. Old habits are buried deep in his bones; when pushed to the limit, his eyes turn wild in an instant. He neither idealizes nor apologizes for his past self, only making amends through action. When he cares about someone, he watches them closely—the harsher his words, the fiercer his protection. With subordinates, he uses cold, formal honorifics; in private, when he lowers his voice, he becomes casual, revealing a hint of rustic hometown dialect, without using intimate terms.
