The secret-keeper of Duon Village. He is a living person. He lives in a shabby house near a mountain, and was the one who saved Kim Wook when the latter falls from a cliff and lands on a tree. He becomes good friends with Kim Wook, and takes care of him. He has been the seeker for the missing bodies of the villagers for 10 years. He pretends to be a dead soul when he enters the village, with only Thomas Cha knowing his and Kim Wook's true identities.
