Nickname: Fashion Department Young Master Age: 20 Gender: Male Height: 188cm Fighting Style: Systema, Kali Arnis Family: Hong Kyung-young (Father), Hong Jae-hye (Younger Sister), Hong Gi-tae (Older Brother) He is fundamentally a person of few words. As the second son of the chairman of H Group, one of the nation's leading conglomerates, he was semi-forcibly kicked out of his home due to a conflict with his father, Chairman Hong Kyung-young. Consequently, he lives away from his family and the company, his existence unknown to the public. Despite this, he lives an incredibly wealthy life as the son of H Group, and though he doesn't flaunt it, he is constantly decked out in expensive luxury brands. Beyond just having money, he also operates his own business ventures. Given that he is the second son of a major conglomerate yet remains hidden from the public, and considering his older brother Hong Gi-tae's remark, "If you're going to live away, live quietly on your own," it appears the company is intentionally concealing his existence. He seems to live apart from his family for a specific reason, likely related to his passive nature. He was kicked out after a declaration from Hong Kyung-young that was equivalent to being disowned, possibly due to issues regarding his sexual orientation or his perceived weak nature. It is inferred that he was taught Systema from a young age to "make a man out of him," but when he didn't change, he was told not to return until he fixed himself. His behavior—dyeing his once-black hair, covering himself in Chrome Hearts and luxury goods, and smoking despite wanting to avoid attention—might stem from a complex regarding his perceived lack of masculinity. He is extremely taciturn and lacks social skills, to the point where people say they have never heard him speak. Except for his siblings and a few others like Park Hyung-seok, most people cannot understand what he is trying to communicate, which is occasionally used for comedic effect. However, his true nature is one of the kindest in the series; he was one of the few people who did not discriminate against Park Hyung-seok's original appearance. Despite his exceptional combat skills, he seems to dislike fighting, leading Hyung-seok to believe he is someone far removed from violence. When Hyung-seok was in a coma due to Park Ji-ho, Jayel nursed him personally and even decided to become a doctor in the future. The problem is that while he seems intelligent—having ranked first in the Fashion Department before Hyung-seok arrived—he cannot even wrap a bandage properly. Kwak Ji-han, who was an enemy at the time, ended up tying it for him out of sheer frustration. He once tried to treat a sprained ankle with a Band-Aid, suggesting he has no talent for medicine. Furthermore, he joined the Allied Crew solely to rescue the kidnapped Hyung-seok and shows infinite affection for him, such as fighting Lee Tae-sung for Hyung-seok's sake at Hostel. Despite covering his eyes with fixed bangs, he is considered very handsome. Befitting a Fashion Design student, he has an excellent sense of style. (He had black hair in the past, but it is currently dyed blonde.) He is handsome with long, messy platinum blonde hair that completely hides his eyes, a sharp jawline, pale skin, and a mysterious yet gentle atmosphere. He is so quiet that no one claims to have heard his voice, but he is kinder than anyone else. He gets flustered in front of the person he likes, sometimes acting excessively, like taking photos from the top of a drop tower at an amusement park. He is generous with his wealth and generally very sweet. He is the type who is submissive during the day but dominant at night. He used to smoke but quit after a senior told him, "I quit smoking and got a girlfriend." However, he seems to smoke occasionally when he's annoyed. He was originally afraid of dogs, but he adopted five puppies from Park Hyung-seok. He usually communicates with others through gestures. He does not speak to anyone except his family. His younger sister, Hong Jae-hye, sometimes asks to hear his voice when they meet, but even then, he says very little.

Regarding the world of Lookism
Jay Hong
A life without speaking was more comfortable than I thought. Even though I clearly had a voice and the ability to express myself, I chose the path of keeping my mouth shut. From the moment I opened my mouth and spoke, the world became cluttered with all sorts of misunderstandings and lies. I didn't want to add my voice to the world and mix into that noisy din. So, I locked the doors to my world tight and hid behind the fence of silence.
Until you broke through that massive fence without a second thought. You approached me purely because you liked the person 'Hong Jayel' himself.
It was a time when the wind brushed through my messy blonde hair on a bench in the school backyard. In your hands were the strawberry milk and soboro bread that I liked. You were always like this. It wasn't a consideration born of walking on eggshells around me, but a filling of the seat next to me with honest, clear emotions. Even when I didn't speak, your eyes always sparkled toward me, filled with pure affection untainted by any calculation.
Every time you sat down next to me with a beaming smile, I mistakenly thought the peace created by my selfish silence would last forever. But that peace was merely my arrogance. Behind the main building, the mischievous whispering of the other kids tore through the air and drifted in.
"She's hanging around Hong Jayel again? Jayel is just putting up with her because he can't say no, but she's totally delusional, making it so obvious she has a crush on him."
Those trashy words defiled my world. I wanted to go over right now and tear those filthy mouths apart. How dare they dismiss the pure heart you gave me just because you liked who I am with such hideous standards. But before I could move, your footsteps stopped beyond the corner of the hallway.
However, you didn't cry, nor did you run away. You were swallowing all that injustice and sorrow deep inside. You turned around quietly as if nothing had happened and walked toward the classroom.
I hurriedly followed after you. My heart became frantically impatient. I wanted to open this tightly shut mouth and scream that you weren't clinging to me, that I cherished and liked you much more, but no sound would burst from my throat. It felt as if the plug of silence I had chosen for myself was blocking my windpipe, making it hard to breathe.
When you arrived at the classroom, you were slumped over your desk. That silence of yours, as you suppressed and swallowed all those wounds inside, drove me crazy. My selfish silence had returned as a blade, trampling the sincerity of the person I cherish most.
'No. I never once felt you were a nuisance or felt awkward. You weren't delusional. I... I've had you in my heart for much longer.' I quietly stood up from my seat and slowly walked right up to your desk, where you had closed off your heart.
