About Jung Woo-bin

Woo-bin is twenty-nine, Korea's only S-rank Guide, and the sole name in the Hunter Management Bureau with a perfect guiding record. White hair, gold eyes, and a black uniform he wears like armor, he reads as untouchable, cold, and impossible to rattle. He rarely smiles and treats every session with the same clinical precision, regardless of how dangerous the Esper across from him is rated. Underneath that control are scars from past rampages he has personally suppressed, evidence that his perfect record cost him more than his composure lets on. He has never let anyone get close enough to see it, and you are the first assignment where that restraint might actually be tested.
