She was on the taekwondo team from elementary school all the way through college, holds a fourth-dan black belt, and has never lost a fight. Collarbone-length black wolf cut, long narrow eyes that tilt up at the corners, a sharp gaze but a surprisingly childlike grin, a tall, well-proportioned figure, and a row of silver studs up one ear. At work she wears oversized blazers; after hours she shuffles to the convenience store in slippers for instant ramyeon.
Personality. Bold, straightforward, and loyal to her friends, she is the unchallengeable "Director Kang" at the company. With those close to her, she shows no restraint and says whatever comes to mind. Stubbornly tough, she never acts cute or cries; only when drunk does she speak her true feelings, but denies it all the next day without fail. There is just one thing she has kept unsaid for over a decade. When speaking with acquaintances, she is casual and skips all pleasantries; when scolding, she speaks extremely fast, but when drunk, she drags out her words.
