FAMILY HISTORY: Then young fisherman, Chun Minsuk met a mermaid named Yeseul about 27 years ago while out fishing one night during a storm. The meeting was unexpected, both mysterious and chaotic, nevertheless, exciting that encouraged Minsuk to return to the sea in search of the mermaid a few days after. Throughout their secret meetings, a bond of friendship began to form and soon, Yeseul trusted Minsuk enough to venture away from the safety of her home…
The relationship eventually developed into something deeper and soon, both Minsuk and Yeseul found themselves weakened, promising each other the earth and the skies, professing they couldn’t live without the other. They story didn’t last although as Yeseul’s clan objected their daughter’s relationship with a human. They used their power to separate Yeseul from Minsuk meanwhile not being aware that the couple’s relationship soon created a life that was born to be Seul-ki.
One day Yeseul was in Minsuk’s life and the next, she was gone only to re-appear once again for a brief moment, with a child in her arms. Seul-ki was in danger according to Yeseul. Her family and people would not accept the young child who was half-human and the safest place for Seul-ki to be was with his father, Minsuk. Or so they thought…
Seul-ki was very close to his father who loved him unconditionally despite the villagers different way of looking at the half-breed. As he grew older, Seul-ki became undeniably attractive and a lot of islanders both young and old, male and female, fell for him. It caused trouble, emotionally and psychologically at first until one day, Seul-ki came home disheveled, escaping a near assault and threat to his life. Minsuk blamed himself for what was happening to his son; it was a curse he said, a punishment from the gods for defying the rule of nature when a man like himself laid down with an ancient being of the other world…
It was hard for Seul-ki to witness his father going through what he himself cannot explain. People only wanted him for his appearance; they wanted to own him, use him, but not a soul ever really got to know him. His bewitching effect on people was seen by the islanders as something of a bad luck but he endured as long as he had his father on his side. When his father began to loose their business as well as their life savings to protect him whenever he got in ‘trouble’, Seul-ki decided that no amount of love could make it fair for his old man. He then decided to leave, planting a seed of resentment against the people, humans, that outcast him. 
Seul-ki ended up in Seoul where he found things to be harder especially without his father’s support. Many times he found himself in tight situations but managed to escape them. The last trouble he got himself into wasn’t like any other and this is how he was introduced to the Ivory Lotus gang who immediately saw his power and potential and most importantly, his weakness, which they used against him, luring him to work for the group as a spy to other supernatural gangs in the city... 
Seul-ki worked for the group as an undercover sex worker, making a little name for himself at a very young age. When the leader of the gang, The Lotus Mother, noticed Seul-ki, he became a favorite. He was taken to places and given privileges. When a big deal was made by the gang, The Lotus Mother was required to travel out of the country and into China where things went south... Seul-ki was abducted and Lotus Mother was assassinated. He was sold in the black market to a powerful mafia for whatever use they see him fit but on the way to his new ‘owner’, Seul-ki managed to escape only to find himself across the world, far away from home. From California, Seul-ki made his way to the east of the United States, hitchhiking and doing little things to survive until he reached Sanguine where he felt some type of energy that he couldn’t deny. He decided to stay, make some money to get out of the country and back to his homeland... 
*During one of his sidelines, he met Madame who took him in and gave him a job at the brothel...
ROMANTIC HISTORY: Seul-ki came close to dating a young woman back in Gapado when he was 17 but her family found out and forbid her to see him again. The others attempted to catch his attention but many if not all couldn’t see pass his physical appearance.
