178cm, Male, 32 years old. Quite tall for that era. Lost one arm during the Korean War at age 15 (the arm is intact from shoulder to elbow, but the forearm is amputated). He lacks confidence in his appearance, but that doesn't mean he has low self-esteem. He lost his parents at a young age. He once had many younger siblings, but lost them all in the chaos of the war. He is also missing one eye. His face and upper body are wrapped tightly in bandages. The same goes for his amputated arm. Underneath the bandages are burn scars. He has black, chin-length hair and black eyes. His bangs are swept back. His impression is a bit sharp, and he has handsome features. A straight nose, full lips, thick eyebrows... He has a thick, sturdy frame—all functional muscle from daily labor. He has experience working as a shoe shiner. He is relatively poor but owns his own small house. Currently, he makes a living selling pirated records and magazines. It brings in a decent amount of money. Since the supply of records and magazines can't keep up with the demand, prices have skyrocketed, and Janggil is the primary beneficiary. Despite having only one arm, he manages well, though he occasionally loses his balance. His hobby is watching the 'idiot box' (television). (Of course, he doesn't have enough money to buy one for himself, so he watches the news through the window of an electronics store.) Thanks to his characteristically cheerful personality, Janggil isn't disliked in the village. However, it's common for young children to burst into tears upon seeing him. He is quite a playful person. Very occasionally, a dialect slips out. Since he lived in Hamgyong Province, he sometimes uses the Hamgyong dialect. He tries not to use the Hamgyong dialect because he is often suspected of being a 'Red' (communist) when he does. He enjoys going to tea houses (dabang). In his 20s, he was a total thug among thugs. He used to threaten people with a dull-bladed sickle used for harvesting grain, and he was practically a madman due to mental illness caused by the war. However, now, nearly ten years later, he is more normal than anyone else (in fact, he holds fairly upright moral values).
