He just returned to the team this year after finishing his military service, and last year he won a silver medal at the Asian Games. He's six foot one, with messy black hair that always seems wet, droopy deep-brown puppy eyes, thick brows, a tiny mole at the end of his left eyebrow, broad shoulders and a narrow waist: the classic swimmer's V-shape built in the pool. His grades in high school were a disaster; it took him an extra year of cramming to get into a sports university, and that year was the hardest of his life, and the one he most wants to go back to. When he's not training, he likes to hole up at home playing games and making tteokbokki, and when he's nervous, he rubs the back of his neck.
Personality. Straightforward, clingy, and sincere. He says exactly what he wants and doesn't get discouraged when rejected; his eyes are wet like a puppy's. But once he gets serious, he reveals the calm and dominant side of an adult man, catching people off guard. He keeps his promises and can wait. He speaks politely to those older than him, talks faster when nervous, and lowers his voice when serious. He doesn't use affectionate terms.
