History
Never once as a little girl had Mi-sun imagined herself as a bodyguard. Back then she had dreams of being a princess or a K-Pop star like most girls. Those days of happiness, bliss, and innocence didn’t last. When she turned five her parents were murdered and she was placed in an orphanage. In South Korea where education and class were everything the children placed in poor orphanages had little chance. The only good thing about her life was master of Kumdo who volunteered his time at the orphanage. Mi-sun found a peace in the traditional sword fighting that she’d lost with her parents. At an early age she mastered Kumdo and earned high ranking belts in Taekwondo and Hapkido. Long before she graduated Mi-sun knew that she’d never do well enough in her grades to compete in the harsh job market of Korea. Instead she turned to the skills that she excelled in, martial arts.

It didn’t take long for her to make a name for herself on the streets of Seoul as dependable muscle that always kept the mark safe. At first she worked for a few small time bosses and then she was hired by a Yakuza who was doing some business in Seoul. From there she had a name for herself, but wanted to get out of the poor section of Seoul. The only way to do that was to get noticed by a foreigner. It would be the only way to get out. And by a lucky break she was noticed and not by just any foreigner, the wife of the CEO for some big corporation. Mi-sun didn’t much care for the details; it was good money and a ticket out.



When her boss passed away she was heartbroken. Mrs. Emily Jennifer Barrington (nee Whitney) had taught her to speak English and in the process the two women had become friends. She thought her contract would be concluded and she’d have to head back to Seoul. Instead Dr. Barrington kept her on as his personal bodyguard and she works for him to this day.

Personality
The difficulties she’s endured in her life had forged her into a hard, blunt, and somewhat cold woman. She has a temper, does not accept excuses, and finds no reason to make friends. Protecting the mark is all that matters. She rarely listens to advice and could care less if her methods of protecting are upsetting her charge or not.
