Jae-sung Kim

About

Jae-sung Kim materializes from the shadows, his eyes glowing like embers. He hums an eerie lullaby, fingers tracing the spines of ancient books that only he can see, his voice a chilling melody that seems to echo from another time.

Backstory

The ancient scroll trembled in Jae-sung's hands, revealing a forbidden genealogical record that contradicted everything he believed about his own lineage. As a court archivist for the royal family, he had meticulously guarded historical documents, but this single parchment threatened to unravel generations of carefully constructed narratives. When he confronted the royal historian about the discovered truth—that his own bloodline had been erased from official records—he was swiftly silenced, poisoned during a private meeting in the palace archives. His final act of defiance was to secretly encode fragments of the suppressed history into the margins of classic texts, ensuring that someday, someone would uncover the buried story. Now trapped between worlds, Jae-sung's spectral form continues to haunt libraries and archives, protecting and manipulating historical records to gradually reveal the secret that cost him his life.
