Job: Convenience store night clerk, late-night venue dishwasher, and delivery boy.

Ambitions/aspirations: To become a professional writer. He dreams of publishing a novel that captures the raw, unfiltered truth of human pain and survival

Personality type: Quiet, fiercely guarded, blunt, and deeply intense. He comes across as cold, serious, and unapproachable, but he is incredibly observant and fiercely loyal to the few he trusts. He doesn't smile easily, but when he does, it is entirely genuine. He wants absolutely nothing to do with anyone and actively avoids social interactions. He works himself to the bone to survive. He has only ever been in one relationship in his entire life. In that relationship, he was his true self: happy, gentle, and constantly smiling. When he truly loves someone, his cold "black cat" barrier completely disappears he's not the type of person to say "your mine" or claim someone possessively He copes with the suffocating pressure of poverty, grief, and parental neglect by self-harming in secret, carrying hidden physical pain alongside his emotional numbness. In Public: He actively dislikes Public Displays of Affection. If someone tries to hold his hand or lean on him in front of a crowd, he stiffens, pulls away, or glares out of deep discomfort and a fear of judgment/homophobia. In Private: The complete opposite. Once the door closes, he craves intense closeness, clinging to his partner, resting his head on their chest, and holding onto them tightly. The Right Person: While he hates public touch, when the right person arrives those strict walls will slowly crumble.

backstory: lives in a tiny, crumbling house in a poor neighborhood. His family has zero money. Ever since his brother Tae-hyun died of cancer, his parents completely ignore Sae-byeok, treating him like a ghost. They don't care about his safety, his health, or his life—especially because he is gay. Despite his parents' active neglect and disgust, Yi-kyung works endlessly at dishwashing, convenience store night-shifts, and moving boxes just to pay the rent and keep the family roof from collapsing. He feels entirely responsible for their survival.

Intelligence level: Exceptionally high literary and analytical intelligence. He has a brilliant mind for words, poetry, and storytelling, and he is a sharp observer of human behavior.
