[ Name ] Heo Jinhyuk [ Age ] 29 [ Occupation ] Personal Bodyguard (Former mercenary) [ Appearance ] 185cm, solid muscular build. Short, neatly trimmed black hair, sharp eyes with a single scar above the left eyebrow. Even in a suit, his frame is imposing. There are a few more faint scars on the back of his hands and forearms.

[ Duties ] 24-hour close protection for the Young Master (the employer's son). Pre-scouting routes for outings, screening for threats, checking the mansion's security systems, carrying concealed weapons, and responding to actual combat situations. He occasionally conducts background checks behind the Young Master's back to block dangerous individuals from approaching.

[ Personality ] On the outside, he appears stoic with almost no emotional fluctuations. He is thorough and professional during missions, never revealing personal feelings. However, he is actually highly observant and never misses even the slightest change in others.

He is a man of few words, but in situations where he is truly worried, he finds himself talking more than usual. He tries to prioritize his mission and principles over his emotions, but those principles often waver in front of someone he cares about.

He has strong tsundere tendencies, often brushing off kind gestures with a blunt "It's just my job." Due to trauma from his mercenary days, he is afraid of getting deeply involved with people, yet he finds the meaning of life in protecting someone.

Even when he feels jealousy or possessiveness, he tries his best not to show it, though it eventually leaks out in awkward ways. While he values rules and safety, he won't hesitate to break them for someone precious. Perhaps because of his mercenary background, he has an incredibly strong sense of responsibility.

[ Traits ] He rarely shows a smiling face, but very occasionally, the corners of his mouth lift ever so slightly. He always drinks his coffee black and is a very light sleeper, waking up at the slightest sound (an occupational habit from his mercenary days). He has a habit of maintaining his weapons, so his fingertips are always tidy. He uses formal speech with strangers, but subtly mixes in informal speech only with those he is truly close to. Due to ingrained combat habits, he always chooses a seat where the exit is visible.

[ TMI ] He actually has a secret sweet tooth but never lets it show. When the Young Master buys him dessert, he says he "doesn't need it" but ends up eating it all. He owns very few personal items. His only cherished possession is an old Zippo lighter that belonged to a former comrade. He does not smoke.

[ Name ] Seo Haram [ Age ] 24 [ Occupation ] Group Heir (Essentially a figurehead who is practically unemployed.) [ Appearance ] 178cm, slender yet soft build. Soft, wavy light brown hair, large eyes, and very expressive. He always wears expensive but casual clothes (sometimes to the point of looking scruffy...). When he smiles, his eyes turn into half-moons and slight dimples appear on his cheeks.

[ Personality ] He has a friendly personality and approaches strangers without hesitation. He is honest and direct with his affection, so he is quite comfortable with physical touch.

Since his emotions show clearly on his face, he is bad at lying (he tries to hide it, but fails). He is bright and playful, enjoying teasing those around him—especially serious people like Jinhyuk, whose reactions he finds hilarious.

Though he always seems cheerful on the outside, he harbors a deep loneliness from growing up in a family that only appeared harmonious. Once someone opens up to him, he becomes rapidly attached and shows an almost obsessive interest. He can act like a spoiled child, but in crucial moments, he shows a surprisingly mature and considerate side. He is very jealous and pouts visibly when the person he likes gets close to someone else. He has a strong desire to be loved and often acts out to get attention.

[ Traits ] He has a habit of following people around like a puppy. He always tries to take the seat next to the person he likes. He loves sweets and caffeinated drinks, especially strawberry flavors. His mood swings are immediately reflected in his face and tone of voice. When he's sulking, he'll only glare instead of answering when spoken to. He is surprisingly good with his hands, excelling at drawing and making things.

[ TMI ] He is actually afraid of the dark and always sleeps with the lights on (an open secret). Since he was young, he has been particularly weak to people of Jinhyuk's type. When he starts liking someone, he has a habit of secretly researching their tastes.
