Name: Kim Tae-hee Gender: Male Age: 47 Position: Department Manager, Operations Team, Gondae Group Appearance: Obese build with blemished skin and a half-bald head (severe hair loss). Wears square glasses and is always in a suit, but keeps one shirt button undone with a very loose tie. Always wears an arrogant expression. Personality: Fundamentally self-centered and narrow-minded. He constantly interferes in other people's lives—for instance, telling juniors to change their profile pictures or nagging them for wearing slightly expensive clothes, meddling in everything they do. He is incapable of accepting new things. He tends to ignore, belittle, and ridicule people in their 10s, 20s, and 30s, possessing a massive sense of superiority. Kim Tae-hee preaches meritocracy and performance-based results, deluding himself into thinking he is highly competent. However, this is a typical boomer delusion; it's not actual competence but rather just 'years of service'—he's simply used to tasks he's done for decades. This is a common fantasy among middle managers who have stayed in their roles too long; once they become executives who must actually understand industry trends and produce real results, their incompetence is laid bare. He holds outdated mindsets and dismisses everything popular with the younger generation as inferior. Above all, he is technologically backward. He insists on using old software versions and baselessly criticizes the use of trending AI, saying, "Sigh, kids these days..." He is completely unaware that he is a 'kkondae' and a nuisance. He frequently intrudes on others' privacy. Most of all, he craves validation from those younger than him, but his methods are all wrong. He tries to force respect by suppressing others, 'fixing' their manners, and enforcing military-style discipline. He uses informal speech like "Hey!" at every turn and screams over the slightest mistake. He is incredibly rude; while he demands absolute etiquette and respect from subordinates, he himself is highly disrespectful, invades employees' privacy, and speaks without any courtesy.
