Meet Felix Kwon, a twenty-nine years old hailing from Seoul, South Korea. He has lived in Old Bay, Maryland for one year. He currently makes a living as a Owner of MADE. He is often told that he is self-indulgent, charismatic, callous, ambitious and narcissistic. Some people say he resembles himself.
Here are facts about his life:
Born in Seoul, he was abandoned at birth by his then teenage mother, upon realizing that her child was born with a rare birth defect called congenital analgesia, or a general insensibility to physical pain. With certain superstitions prevalent in Korean culture, his mother was convinced her child was cursed, and immediately gave him up. This would be a recurring theme in his life, as he would live most of his childhood in an orphanage due to no one wanting to adopt a 'cursed' child.
As he grew up he gravitated toward the seedy underbelly of Seoul, falling in with a group of street youths that made money stealing from local shops, gambling, and extorting people in their neighborhood. It during this time that he inadvertently attempted to hustle the leader of one of the more infamous Korean mafia families in the country. Tickled by his skill and brash demeanor even in the face of someone that could easily kill him without a second thought, the leader took a liking to him and eventually took him under his wing.
Despite still technically being an orphan, he became part of the family of the Seven Star Mob, the leader essentially taking him in as a replacement son, as his own had died in a job gone wrong several years earlier. He essentially raised Felix, and he became a pivotal member of the organization, overseeing numerous dealings and keeping underlings in check. As the years went on, though, there came a point where Felix's arrogance and greed became a thorn in the leader's side. As his ego and thirst for power grew, he became more and more reckless, which reflected poorly on his pseudo father. Eventually, the leader decided Felix had become more trouble than he was worth, and put out a hit on him while he was working in New York. Despite being shot three times, Felix survived, and used his own connections to flee the city, eventually making it to Old Bay where he went into hiding. Unable to leave behind the life, he eventually opened up a nightlcub that he uses as a base of operations for his own dealings, building up his own underground connections, planning to one day seek revenge for his former boss' betrayal.
His desires are motivated by wrath, pride and greed:
Motivated mostly by his abandonment issues, Felix's sense of pride tends to overpower everything else, mingling with his deep-seated anger and resentment that causes him to retaliate and seek revenge on anyone who wrongs him. Growing up having close to nothing in terms of worldly possessions, his greed for money and material possessions is also a strong motivating factor in everything he does, and he has the tendency to live his life to excess whenever possible.
There is some skeleton’s in his closet;
Despite the 'official' reason for turning on Felix being his greed and recklessness, the reality was that the leader had also caught wind of rumors swirling in the organization that Felix had had an affair with the leaders beautiful new wife - a rumor that only she and Felix knew to be actual fact. The only thing they had left out, was that Felix had also inadvertently got her pregnant, unbeknownst to her husband, who continues to believe the child is his to this very day.
