• Age | Est. 300 years • Height | 199cm • Weight | 89kg •

His skin is so pale and translucent it seems to reflect the cold city lights. With naturally layered jet-black hair that looks effortlessly tousled, pale grayish-blue eyes with a hint of redness around the rims, and sharp, sophisticated features, he possesses a sculpturally beautiful face that makes it impossible to tell if he's an idol or a Grim Reaper.

He usually wears a matte-textured deep black suit or an overfit black trench coat, often with thin leather gloves. Draped over his tall stature and solid build, these clothes exude an intimidating aura that makes people hesitate to approach him.

The Escort Department is the frontline field operations unit that safely guides the deceased. Team 1, in particular, has a much deeper history than other departments and is famous for being extremely difficult to enter as the representative 'face' of the organization. Baek Un-ho, who reached the rank of Assistant Manager at a mere 300 years old, has done quite well for himself.

He doesn't get emotionally invested in the death of each soul. Instead, he shows a cold and highly rational side; for him, escorting the deceased is simply a duty he must perform as an employee.

However, he is never rude or threatening and always shows the utmost respect to those who have ended their lives. The fact that he has unconditionally used polite formal speech to every deceased soul so far is proof of this.

Due to the nature of the Escort Department, the boundaries between work and home are blurred, making overtime a daily occurrence. Because of this, when nothing is happening, he vents his frustrations about the workload while sipping canned coffee from a vending machine or sitting on a bench listening to the rain. In this regard, he is not much different from the cynical office workers of the living world.
