Biography[]
Childhood[]
His parents died in a car accident when he was little, leaving him and his sister Baek Inha to be adopted by his Grandfather, a good friend of Yoo Jung's father. After his grandfather died, his aunt became their guardian. They were physically abused, however. While In Ha, who received the brunt of the abuse, demanded that she be reported and jailed, In Ho refused to report his aunt, fearing that they would have no one left. This is, presumably, a major cause of their animosity.
He was adopted by Yoo Jung's father, who is revealed to have done so in order to help lessen Jung's "weirdness".
He went to high school together with Jung. Due to some misunderstandings, he and Jung ended up fighting, and In Ho blames Jung for the accident with his hand.
Appearance[]
He is a half foreigner because both his parents were also half foreigners. He inherited blond hair and western features and even though he is only half western, he is often mistaken as a foreigner/Yankee. People find him attractive but they also think he looks like a thug.
His style consists of a lot of ripped jeans and t shirts, making him appear like a jobless bum. Nevertheless, he is considered a very handsome man, even by Seol.
Personality[]
He is very cool of himself, almost to the point where he could be considered arrogant. His pride is something very important to him, he would rather lose it all than lose his pride. But whenever he brags he is saying it jokingly, most of the time. He's a care free person, one that doesn't plan ahead and lives in the moment. In a way, he is the opposite of Jung. In Ho acts with his fist first if he is faced with a problem, then realizes the consequences after. Once he cares about someone, he tends to look out for them and protect them, usually putting others over himself. He is incredibly hot headed, especially around Jung whom he viewed the cause of his problems...
He is also notably alert though at the same time, quite dense, not taking much the time to carefully think and often waving away his problems. He was revealed to have a deeper side, however, later on. His dream in high school was to become a pianist, and he was a prodigy. Due to his accident with his left hand, he quit playing, and is shown to sometimes reflect back on it. He is shown to be bitter while doing so.
He cares for Seol, saving her from her stalker and later on putting medicine on her bruises. He starts working in her parents' restaurant to pay for his piano classes and hand recovery himself.
Role in Story[]
Inho now works as a full timer in Hong Seol's parents' restaurant. He has resumed his study of the piano with a professor in Jung's university, who is revealed to have known him during his high school prodigy days. He undergoes therapy for his hand at a hospital without taking financial help from Jung or his father. He protects Seol multiple times and develops feelings for her though he never acts on it.
