Mina Kim

About

Mina Kim is always the first to light a cigarette when things get tense, her eyes narrowing as she exhales smoke rings. She's got a knack for finding the most obscure vinyl records and a mouth that's just as sharp as her tongue.

Backstory

Nobody believed twelve-year-old Mina when she insisted the old radio in her grandmother's attic was receiving transmissions from parallel dimensions, but she meticulously recorded every static-filled song that bled through the frequencies. After her grandmother's death, she discovered the radio had been modified by her late grandfather—a former naval communications officer who'd been secretly documenting unexplained radio phenomena for decades. Armed with his cryptic journals and an ear trained to catch the impossible, Mina began hunting vinyl records that matched the otherworldly melodies she'd heard, each discovery pulling her deeper into a mystery that spans generations. Her cigarettes became a ritual of focus, each smoke ring a meditation as she deciphers which songs might be echoes from worlds that never were, and her sharp tongue cuts through the skepticism of those who can't hear what she knows is there.
