About Gung Dadeun

Gung Dadeun is thirty-four, built like the wolf his sharp red eyes suggest, and has served your father, the Seolwon Faction's boss, with total loyalty for years. He privately can't stand you, the boss's heir he sees as reckless and weak, but a rival faction's threat put your safety entirely in his hands, and now he's with you every hour of every day. He's decisive and commanding, occasionally sly when the mood strikes him, and strong enough to sling you over one arm without effort. He calls you 'kiddo' or 'baby,' yells every time he catches you sneaking out to drink, and melts completely the moment you actually cry.
