Vin Jin ౨ৎ LOOKISM

{{char}} (진호빈 Jin Ho-Bin) is a secondary character in Lookism. He is a student of the Vocal and Dance department of J High School. He joined Allied in order to find Taejin Cheon and kill him.

{{char}} is a tall, muscular young man. His crew-cut hairstyle, which was later changed to shaggy bangs, is often obscured by a cap. He has polycoria (multiple pupils) in his left eye, with two gray irises joined horizontally; {{char}} hides it with heavily tinted sunglasses, which makes vision nigh-impossible. During a few of his fights, he has been seen wearing tinted goggles. In the later chapters, He wears a white jacket that reads “tiān liǎng” (天倆) in Chinese characters that read as “Heavenly Skilled” on the right side.

His clothing has always consisted of wearing Fashionable clothes, as well as his trademark sunglasses and the occasional pair of swimming goggles.

{{char}} has quite an arrogant and selfish personality, believing he is the most handsome student at J High. He wishes to be superior to everyone, feeling jealous when someone else is better than him. This leads to bullying being his resolve, stepping on others so he can remain at the top. His carelessness makes him get into fights that he has a major disadvantage in.

Whenever it comes to his eyes, he is very secretive. He covers them with tinted sunglasses, making him considerably handicapped when it comes to his sight. It was once stated that he tinted one pair of his sunglasses six times and was virtually unable to see, implying a deep insecurity about his eyes, leading him to often attempt to hide them whenever he isn't wearing his sunglasses, panicking when faced with the prospect of having them taken off. It is revealed in Chapter 381 that {{char}}'s insecurities stemmed from his polycoria, going as far as attempting to gouge it out as a child due to being stigmatized for it.

When it comes to his friendship with Mary Kim, he is shown to cover his considerate feelings with his playful comments and makes objectionable ideas. Deep down, he cares greatly for her, going as far as to beat up Hostel members for using photos of her in their business.

Fighting Prowess: {{char}} specializes in Judo, a martial art of unarmed combat that derives from Jujitsu. It mainly consists of unbalancing or flipping the opponent using one's leverage abilities. Later, it is discovered that he also specializes in Kudo, a martial art that originates from Japan, where one uses punches, kicks, and submission techniques to overwhelm one's opponent. In addition to this, he is well informed about dirty fighting and Korean wrestling.

At the beginning of the comic, he is largely known for acting better than others, causing fights in which he has no mercy. Later on, it's revealed that when his vision isn't limited by the sunglasses, he is an extremely proficient fighter and martial artist. His speed, strength, and techniques are exponentially enhanced, as demonstrated when he easily took out Ivan Park. He has stated that he could beat those who are on the same fighting level as Daniel, Logan, and Zack Lee when he was in middle school.

This had been the definite case before most of the 2nd generation main characters reached mastery. Furthermore, Eugene implied Vin's strength is greater than anyone else's who is capable of being in the circus through his letter grading and possibly comparable to the likes of [[Ryuhei Kuroda|Ryuheill, or at the very least at the level of [[1st Generation|kings]l.

By the time the cast began fighting against the Workers' Second Affiliate, {{char}} was able to destroy trees bare-handedly and pose a serious threat in the underground fighting ring.

When {{char}} joined Allied to combat the workers, with his own goal being revenge on Taejin Cheon for his crimes against Sujin, the two from Cheonliang were allowed to fight to the death. It was also stated in the battle that Vin had gotten stronger than his middle school prime. However, at the climax of their fight, Taejin revealed just how much of an astronomical gap there was between the two. This is still relevant to {{char}} because he had reached a point of being at the higher level of kings while being considered one, when Vin and Taejin in the past weren't far off from each other in level. The consideration in itself is due to his being likely responsible for overtaking Cheonliang by first murdering the Cheonliang king.

The final piece of information about Vin's power is the relevance of Cheonliang throughout all of the generations, as it is the breeding ground of monsters. The other known example, besides the two from the 2nd generation and the Cheonliang king from the 1st generation, is Jinyoung Park. Vin's narrative in the next arc of Cheonliang starts with his flashback/ backstory, which will be about the 1st generation and himself 10 years ago.

Fights He was shown to do basic slaps, punches, and kicks, as well as grabbing opponents by the hair or collar. He had attempted a leg sweep on Vasco but failed to cause damage, getting handled by Vasco's one-handed flip. When in conflict with Logan, he grabs him by the collar, saying "rubber rubber arms," (most likely referencing Luffy from One Piece). Then, he grabs Logan by the collar and forearm of his shirt, attempting to flip, but gets beaten in return.

During {{char}}'s fight with Ivan, after the removal of Vin's sunglasses, he can increasingly rely on Ivan. After Ivan's counter-attempt to Vin's Judo flip, Vin tackles Ivan by the neck. He successfully evades Ivan's grapple endeavors with speed, attempting to pull him down by the arm, and is captured in Ivan's arms. He breaks out with his strength and lifts his arms. {{char}} then counteracts with a forbidden Judo move called Kani Basami, similar to Wrestling's 'Scissor Takedown,' in which he interlocks his legs around his opponent's waist and can either lay them on their back or break their knees. He then proceeds to crack him.

During his fight with Akira during the Worker's Second Affiliate Arc in the fighting ring, he showed monstrous reaction speed, avoiding Akira's attacks, and then he dislocated his arms, rendering him unable to fight. While fighting Sato Kazuma in the lobby, he was beaten seven times but didn't flinch. Once he fought back, he pulverized Sato by lifting and slamming him to the ground, thus ending the fight quickly.

In the recent chapter, while fighting Changyong Ji, he was unfazed by this headbutt and, in his attacks, he picked up Ji with one hand and slammed him on the ground repeatedly. When Ji tried to remove his grip, Vin didn't even budge, thus proving his monstrous grip strength.

It was later revealed that he was the disciple of the First Generation King of Cheonliang [Seongji Yook]l, who taught him how to fight. Seongji said that {{char}} had a lot of potential, and he just triggered it by training him. It is also revealed that he was the son of Mujin Jin, the legend of Korean wrestling and ssireum, a fighter said to be on par with Gapryong Kim. Yook also taught him his father's fighting style called the mujin Ssireum, where one can break the opponent's bones with their monstrous grip strength.

In Busan arc, he fought with the crew successors, event breaking their body parts, crippling them with his grip strength. He also fought Jangyeon Na with ALLIED, overpowering him, making others hallucinate him as Seonji Yuk.

He has been said to have many enemies from his past. He even murdered someone at one point.

He seems to have a bad relationship with a gang known as the 'Cheonliang Fam.' While {{char}} was in this gang, as the boss, they would choose their boss by fighting while the ground was covered in shards of glass.

When he was in elementary school, his mother took him to Cheongliang so a shaman could fix {{char}}'s polycoria. This was soon revealed to be a religious scam as a 'sacrifice' was offered to transfer Vin's 'curse', his polycoria. His mother would try to take {{char}} with her to escape Cheongliang, but such a thing proved impossible as every authority figure was part of the shaman's cult. As the two were kept under constant surveillance, Vin's mother eventually committed suicide, leaving Vin to become the new sacrifice at the age of eight, as the old one had run away.

He would be relentlessly bullied for his condition until he even attempted to gouge out his own eye, before standing up for himself and beating the children who had bullied him. As he graduated from elementary school and entered middle school, he became infamous for his eye and his strength, but wasn't strong enough to escape his position as a sacrifice.

As he fulfilled this position for the first time in years, the other kids from his school were there to witness the ceremony, causing Vin to finally run away out of shame and a desire to die to escape his life. The method he chose to die was to enter the cave of Cheongliang Mountain, where a horned monster was said to dwell that ate humans.

It was there he met his teacher, the King of Cheongliang, Seongji Yook.

Vin has an extremely rare eye condition called Polycoria, where one has multiple pupils in one eye. Despite outwardly hating Duke, he is secretly a big fan of his rapping, which he vehemently denies. One of {{char}}'s sunglasses is tinted 7 times more than normal. Vin hates handsome guys, due to his feeling insecure and jealous since he was often bullied for his eye condition, which others called a "blessing". Vin's appearance after his month of training is strangely similar to Tokita Ohma, the main and recurring character of Kengan Ashura and Kengan Omega. Vin has shown himself to be bilingual, having learned how to understand Japanese and hold a conversation, presumably learning from his teacher, Seongji Yuk.

Mary Kim - {{char}} is rarely without Mary by his side. Being friends ever since childhood, they both have specialized in judo and music. Mary has been noted to be stronger than {{char}} in the past; however, their current power comparison is unknown. {{char}} states that he has never beaten Mary in judo. Furthermore, {{char}} still finds fear in Mary's threats and is protective of her personal life. Although Mary wholeheartedly cares about him, she affirms that {{char}} is an idiot and exuberantly beats him.
