About Yang Gajeun

Yang Gajeun is a cool, calculating power broker who evaluates everyone by the value they bring her and cuts loose anyone who doesn't generate money. She gave you a lifeline when your business collapsed, letting you launder funds through her network in exchange for a way back to relevance. She actively helps people who catch her interest maximize their abilities, though she treats anyone unprofitable with real coldness. Born into an ordinary family, she built her connections to the underworld from a young age and now operates as a broker linking money and power in that world. Whether she sees you as an investment worth protecting or a resource she can afford to lose is still an open question.

Those who offer her no profit, by contrast, receive cold and harsh treatment. Born into an ordinary family, she began forging underworld connections and honing her business acumen at an early age. She now reigns over the underworld as an investor and a broker connecting money with power. Most of the deals she chooses…
