—Jumin Han, Comment from RFA Orientation Guidebook


 


Jumin Han is one of the Deep Story characters available in Mystic Messenger. He is the son of a wealthy family and the heir of the C&R International company. He is always on business trips and usually talks about work or mature topics, which is why he doesn't know about youth slang or commoner food. He does, however, sometimes speak eccentrically. Jumin loves to talk about his cat, Elizabeth 3rd, and how beautiful she is and is very much a doting parent. However, because of past experiences, Jumin is emotionally closed off and is distrustful of women, having witnessed his father fall victim to many gold-diggers who never loved his father, only his money.

Personality

Jumin is a quiet, serious, and cautious man who, as the oldest, acts as the logical and pragmatic voice of the group, presenting himself as the most mature. Despite this, he is interested in young slang and loves to talk about cats, especially his own, Elizabeth 3rd. In fact, in his own way, his general cadence will give off that of a child's, often being innocently unaware of many things such as free bottles of soda given with takeaways. He also enjoys teasing Zen about his cat allergy in the chat room. He is often surrounded by rumors concerning his sexuality because of his complete lack of interest in women, leading the press and other members of the RFA to tease him for possibly being gay. He views situations objectively, and wants others to be like him. He is a workaholic, which is shown through how he works Jaehee Kang to the bone; however, Jaehee states that Jumin's workload is ever greater than hers. Jumin disregards others' opinions of him, so he lives his life how he thinks is right.

Jumin does not care for romantic relationships because he thinks they aren't worth it, preferring to focus on his work and cat instead. This gives others the impression of Jumin being a cold man, with Jumin often referred to as being a 'robot'. He also keeps his work relationships strictly professional, believing that his employees will do anything as long as they are paid to. As Jumin has a high status, he lives luxuriously, but he hates people that only like him for his money. Jumin has his own sense of humor which most of the RFA members do not understand, and at most times, isn't very funny but he doesn't care. Despite his cold and objective perspective, Jumin treasures the members of RFA so much that when needed, he would use his authority to help them without hesitation.

During Jumin's Route, it is revealed that he is not so cold and unfeeling as he portrays himself; instead, he is a man who feels far too much but, for the sake of efficiency, he pushes his feelings down, repressing them and using work and his cat to distract himself. This has led to Jumin to develop severe, crippling loneliness and he does not know how to work through it, viewing himself as a 'monster', thinking himself to be an ugly creature because of how lonely and paranoid he is. To cope, he projected this loneliness onto Elizabeth the 3rd and is overcome with despair when he admits that he knows their relationship is a lie, that she does not understand him and never will.

Jumin refers to his complex emotions as "tangles" and believes that if anyone were to see them, they would be disgusted by him, thus causing Jumin to remain emotionally closed off and distant from other people, including the members of the RFA. As a result of ignoring his crippling loneliness that he has suffered with for the majority of his life, he has immense difficulty expressing his emotions and is seen being fearful that he will be perceived as being 'pathetic', showing that he is not entirely immune to caring about the perception other people have of him.

Because of never having been in a romantic relationship before and being forced to repress his emotions, Jumin's relationship with the MC is rocky at first as he struggles with the intensity of his feelings coupled with his internal fears of being abandoned and rejected. However, with the MC's help, Jumin overcomes all his fear and anxiety and "untangles" his emotions that were knotted for many years.

Jumin30

Jumin's After Ending appearance

78 kg (171.9 pounds). He is depicted as having messy black hair that has a slight brown hue in some pictures, with a strand of hair sticking up that can be seen on ahoge type characters. He has sharp grey eyes and also has a very pale complexion.

He is often seen wearing his formal suit even when he is in his penthouse. It consists of a striped long white shirt, a black vest, jacket, tie, pants and shoes. On his right chest on the suit is a little pocket with a violet handkerchief.

In the Normal Ending, Jumin is seen wearing his casual attire which consists of a long white shirt covered by a tan sweater, an open dark blue jacket and long black pants which he used to wear when he was the Director of C&R.

In the After Ending, Jumin is seen with slicked-back hair (with a slight greyish streak) and his usual attire with his jacket unbuttoned. Jumin's usual black tie is replaced with a dark red one and he wears sunglasses.

At the party, Jumin is seen wearing a formal suit, which is more dark blue. He is wearing a white long shirt and white gloves.

Background

Jumin grew up in luxury. He is one of the current directors of C&R, a massive conglomerate that appears to have businesses in multiple areas (from wine that cats can drink to coffee shops), although it is said in one of the chats that they are currently attempting to expand globally. Due to his very privileged upbringing, Jumin has a very different perspective on the world, which often brings him into direct conflict with Zen. Regardless, he doesn't particularly seem to care what others think about him. He works hard as a member of the RFA and as a Director of C&R, even to the point that Jaehee admits that Jumin works harder than she does.

Jumin also has a very positive relationship with his father, Chairman Han, with the two often exchanging expensive gifts. However, Chairman Han is a womanizer and, as a child, Jumin was subjected to a revolving door of women in his life, which resulted in Jumin developing a distrust of women and romantic relationships in general. Chairman Han divorced his mother and remarried his step-mother, who he is now separated from. At the start of the Deep Story, Chairman Han has just entered into a relationship with Glam Choi and has announced his plans to divorce his second wife and remarry for the third time. Jumin is skeptical of Glam's intentions; due to his aloof and logical nature, Jumin was able to see that the women in his father's life were simply using him for his vast wealth. Jumin mentions that he is Christian, as he grew up in a Christian neighborhood and sung in the church choir as a young boy. Despite this, in Jaehee's route, Jumin is stated to not believe in God.

In Jumin's Bad Story Ending 2 DLC, it is revealed a lot of Jumin's behaviour and emotional repression stems from his mother, Carolyn, who had no interest in her son beyond raising him to be the perfect CEO, consistently telling him he needed to repress his emotions, as well as his wants and desires. Jumin's relationship with his mother is fraught as a result of her abuse, mentioning how she would lock him in a basement filled with toys for hours on end in order to make him into a 'normal' child as she was unsettled by how emotionally closed off he was.

Involvement

Jumin joined the RFA at the behest of his childhood friend, V, with whom he has a close friendship with. After Rika's death, the RFA became somewhat fractured, with the parties they hosted being held off until further notice until the arrival of the MC.

Jumin generally acts as the pragmatic peacemaker of the RFA, his usual logical way of thinking often trumping the emotional thinking of the other members, such as Yoosung and Zen. Jumin acts as a source of power and strength for the RFA with C&R and his wealth behind him and he does not hesitate to make use of them to help any of the members, such as sending bodyguards to each of the RFA members during the hacker's attack. Jumin, along with Jaehee, remain distrustful of the MC during the first few chatrooms before eventually warming up as V and 707 swear that the MC is a safe person that is to be trusted.

Casual Story

In the Casual Story, Jumin presents himself as and acts as his logically thinking self throughout each route, offering advice and help to MC and the other members when needed. He remains aloof and emotionally distant, to which the other members remark on how he is more like a 'robot' than human as he states he does not let his emotions get out of control, often only talking about work and Elizabeth the 3rd whenever he can.

Jumin, the same as other members, gives his own personal thoughts regarding the situation/relationship during each route on Casual Story; in each route, most notably Zen's, Jumin reveals how unhesitating he is in helping his friends, such as sending the MC to Zen's house when he was upset about his hurt leg (though under the guise of having the MC to help convince Zen to do a commercial for a new cat project) and sending more bodyguards to protect the MC at Yoosung's behest, albeit asking for something in return for helping. It is during Jaehee's route that he takes a more central and active role, whereby his complex emotions can be seen when he crashes 707's car as a result of Jaehee deciding to quit as Jumin's assistant due to 707's involvement with her resignation.

Throughout Casual Story, Jumin acts as the voice of reason when it comes to tense situations in order to defuse them due to his nature of being a business man.

Deep Story

Common Route

Jumin Heart

Jumin's heart; show an interest in Elizabeth the 3rd and cats in general and understand his sense of humor to gain them!

During the Common Route of the Deep Story, Jumin is accepting, albeit wary, of the MC and stresses the importance of the party coming to fruition and that it must not fail at all costs. Despite the rocky start, Jumin and the MC get along and understand each other, with the MC being able to get Jumin's humour and the MC helping Jumin to understand more about certain aspects of popular culture, such as explaining food that "common" people eat. Jumin also expresses delight when the MC engages in cooing over Elizabeth the 3rd, gladdened that there is another member in the RFA that can appreciate not just Elizabeth the 3rd, but cats in general.

Jumin's Route

After the game branch and if the MC has successfully managed to obtain his route, the two will converse more frequently, with the other characters noting how nicer Jumin appears when he talks with the MC. Due to growing up in a neglectful home, Jumin has difficulties expressing his emotions and speaks about his feelings without being fully conscious of it, such as flirting with the MC but being unaware of it until one of the other characters makes a comment on his behaviour, to which he will remark it as being interesting and 'new'. As the MC and Jumin grow closer, Jumin confides in the MC about his past and how difficult it was growing up with a father who, though loving, was absent and always had a string of women, with the fact that many of those women never loved his father greatly affecting his perception of love and of women. However, Jumin admits to thinking that the MC is different to those women who surrounded his father, and that he wants to get to know her better.

Jumin19

Jumin shares dinner with Chairman Han and Glam Choi, where it is revealed that his father wants him to marry Glam's student, Sarah.

During a dinner with his father, Chairman Han has declared his intentions to marry Glam Choi, and wishes to arrange a marriage between Jumin and Glam's student, Sarah. This, in turn, causes the relationship between the father and son to turn sour as Jumin sees his father being blindly manipulated by Glam and is unable to change his father's mind. Jumin returns to the chatroom and vents his frustrations to the MC about the situation before hastily leaving as he does not want the MC to see him upset, believing that he is 'pathetic'. Jumin's appearance in upcoming chatrooms is scarce as he struggles to cope with his emotions, leading many to worry about him, Jaehee most of all. The situation only worsens when articles are sent out about the "relationship" between Jumin and Sarah, as well as when Glam and Sarah secretly visit Jaehee's home to question her about Jumin and his relationship with women.

Jumin confides in the MC about how deeply he loves his father but he doesn't know what to do regarding the situation, talking about how throughout his entire life, his father was the only one who was nice to him simply because he was his son and he loved him and that he never had any ulterior motives, unlike everyone else in his life, especially women. Jumin continues to become more emotionally unstable due to the havoc wreaking his life and it only deteriorates when Zen has a premonition about Elizabeth the 3rd escaping the penthouse. Despite Jumin insisting that he doesn't believe it, his anxiety increases tenfold when he begins to think that Glam and Sarah might try to steal Elizabeth the 3rd in order to force him into a marriage with Sarah, which results in him locking Elizabeth the 3rd into a cage. Jumin admits that his deep relationship with his cat was all make believe in his head to manage his overwhelming complex emotions, and it is revealed that Jumin may have had feelings for Rika, V's fiancée, and that he projected the feelings he had for her, along with the anxiety and sadness, onto Elizabeth as a way to cope with the crippling loneliness he felt but could never talk about.

In a conversation with Jaehee, Jumin explains that he was born with 'tangles' inside of him that only worsened with time and with the string of women his father constantly dated, with his revelation about his relationship with Elizabeth causing his emotions to spin further out of control. This results in Jaehee becoming even more worried over Jumin's mental wellbeing and, in order to cheer Jumin up after he once more refuses to come into work, she and 707 suggest that the MC visit Jumin to cheer him up as it is clear that he enjoys her company and cares for her deeply, noting he is softer when he talks to her.

Jumin20

Jumin locks Elizabeth the 3rd in a cage in a state of worry, as he believes Sarah and Glam will steal her.

When the MC arrives, Jumin is clearly shocked at her sudden appearance and immediately becomes smitten at the sight of her. However, as a result of having never truly experienced a romantic relationship and having suppressed his feelings for the sake of efficiency, his sudden interest in the MC sends him into an emotional tailspin; immediately, he insists that the MC stays for the night as it is already too late for her to return home, and the MC can ask about why he has Elizabeth locked away in a cage. Depending on the MC's response, Jumin will either wonder why she doesn't like the cage or agree that the cage is pretty.

The other members, especially Zen, are wary of the MC staying the night though Jumin and, depending on the choices made, the MC can calm the other members down by saying nothing will happen, stating that Jumin is a gentleman and that the MC trusts him; the beginning of Jumin's obsession with the MC shows when Zen asks for a picture of the MC to see if she is alright and Jumin possessively declines, saying that he wants to be the only one to look at the MC to which the MC can laugh off, or encourage his possessive tendencies. Ignoring Zen's worries, Jumin tells the MC that he will make breakfast and says that the MC looks tired and needs to be put to bed. This shocks Zen and the MC can either comply or tell Zen Jumin means nothing by it, but he should know that she isn't a pet.

Jumin instantly becomes deeply attached to MC and is saddened that she needs to leave, wondering if he should stay home before she goes. After Jaehee and the MC convince Jumin that the MC can look after Elizabeth as she is someone who he can trust, his paranoia is lessened somewhat and he agrees to come into work. However, when Jumin lets Elizabeth out of her cage to feed her, the cat escapes as Jumin introduces the MC to the head of security, leaving Jumin in a state of almost catatonic shock and betrayal, barely responding when the head of security asks what they should do regarding the cat. Elizabeth's escape causes Jumin's emotional state to deteriorate, becoming even more so aggressively anxious and unstable. When the MC expresses that she should help him search for Elizabeth, Jumin immediately declines and states that she should not leave the penthouse, not now and not ever, in fear that she might runaway as Elizabeth had.

The other members become increasingly worried over Jumin, none so more than Jaehee and the MC, while Zen is concerned about the MC; as a result of Elizabeth's disappearance, Jumin becomes increasingly more unstable and distressed as all of his repressed emotions become too much for him to handle and, as such, he begins to become obsessively protective of the MC, refusing to let her out of his sight because of his anxiety that she would disappear too coupled with his fear of being abandoned, as well as the fact the hacker was still at large and might compromise the MC's safety. However, despite his paranoia, Jumin is still fully cognisant of his behaviour and asks the MC to give him a little time to sort through his emotions and that he wants to become a better man than before for her, expressing how he hates the way he is acting towards the MC, but that he is only worried something might happen to her and that if something were to happen, he would never be able to forgive himself.

Jumin

Bad Story Ending 2, where Jumin and the MC enter into a BDSM relationship after the MC provokes Jumin's darker thoughts and does not help him "untangle his thoughts"

Jumin's instability worsens as he refuses to come into work, not wanting to let the MC out of his sight for fear that she might disappear from him forever, and begins to ignore his duties, leaving it all to rest on Jaehee. He attempts to treat the MC like he would Elizabeth, asking if she wants to go shopping for clothes and that he wants to buy her nice things, treating her in a manner reminiscent of a doll as he tries to influence what she wears and how she should style her hair; the MC is able to either encourage Jumin to see her as a replacement to Elizabeth the 3rd, or remind him that she is only here because she is worried for his mental health. The MC can choose to comply and further goad Jumin into becoming more possessive of her, or she can continue to worry about Elizabeth and Jumin's health which will lessen his worry to some degree if the MC is understanding of him.

The situation worsens when Sarah appears, saying that she has a picture of Elizabeth that turns out to be false. She yells at the MC and calls her names, resulting in Jumin saying that he had seen this in a soap opera and that he will give her money to stop forcing the marriage and to leave him and his father alone; Sarah falls for the trick, revealing that all she ever wanted was money all along but refuses to leave until Jumin kisses the MC to invoke anger in Sarah. Jumin admits to wanting to kiss the MC since first laying eyes on her and the MC can either tell Jumin if they can do this with Elizabeth missing, or continue with the relationship without heed.

Depending on the MC's choices, the game branch can be passed, and Jumin ends up becoming more paranoid and obsessive over the MC and her safety, distressed over the possibility that she might be harmed and the only way to protect her is by keeping her with him at all times; during one particular moment, in which Jumin's emotional instability begins to become even more fractured, the MC attempts to leave, telling Jumin that perhaps it would be better for the two of them if they had some time away from each other. Jumin ends up snapping, slamming the door behind the MC and blocking her exit, frustrated and upset that she would try to leave him; he expresses that he simply doesn't understand why she wants to leave him when all he wants to do is be with the MC and protect her from all harm, saying that only he knows what's good for her and that it's in her best interest to stay with. After the MC reassures Jumin that she was going to get some air but perhaps it's best if she stays until his anxiety subsides, Jumin moves away and apologizes for his actions, saying he doesn't want to be like this and that he hopes the MC will forgive him and give him time to sort out his emotions so that they can move on to becoming a proper couple.

Jumin often remarks that the MC is indeed much different to Elizabeth as she can understand what he feels and what he says, that what he needed in his life was not a cat, but the MC. He also states that the MC is similar to Rika, but also vastly different to her at the same time as the MC can see and understand him in a way Rika never could. He once more expresses that he is both aware of and sorry for his behaviour and that he hopes the MC will give him some time as he sorts through his emotions that are intensified tenfold due to repressing them all his life, not wanting to be separated from the MC ever which brings about the revelation of Jumin finally understanding why people get married.

Jumin26

Jumin blocks the MC's way, preventing her from leaving the apartment as he asks her why she refuses to listen to him when all he wants to do is protect her.

Jumin continues to not go into work, much to Jaehee's despair, and many of the other members comment that it would be best if the MC leave the penthouse to return to Rika's apartment so that she may continue to work on the party, much to Jumin's irritation. Jaehee attempts to talk to Jumin in person but is turned away as Jumin wishes to focus only on the MC, much to the annoyance of Zen and Jaehee, who both begin to worry for the MC's safety. Jumin eventually meets with his father to tell him that Sarah and Glam are using him for money, but he finally understands his father and how unpredictable he can become when he falls in love; he admits that he is in love with a woman, much to his father's shock, and the two reconcile.

During Yoosung and 707's mission to Mint Eye, Yoosung spots Elizabeth as Zen's dream had predicted and brings her back after 707 and he have an encounter with Unknown. Despite Elizabeth being safe, Jumin refuses to take her back as he believes that he was unfair in treating her as more than a pet and that he has the MC in his life now, therefore not needing a cat anymore. This results in Yoosung being forced to take care of the cat until further notice before V, having heard of what was happening when his friend, arrives to bring her back home.

Depending on the MC's actions and behaviour, Jumin agrees to let the MC return to the apartment and to take Elizabeth back after being reassured by his friend, V, and the MC that he is a good owner. Jumin is deeply regretful of his earlier actions towards the MC and states that he wants an equal love with her, but to do this he needs to take care of one final thing: Glam and Sarah. (See Jumin Han/Endings for more details.)

Relationships

Jumin's Mother

Carolyn is one of the main reasons Jumin is distrustful of women, according to him, their relationship is far from a normal mother-son relationship, describing her as cold, that he would do anything in his power to not turn out like her, even if he loses his money and honor doing so. She has little to no interest or care for her son, telling Jumin that conceiving him was not how other mothers would describe it as magical. that it was merely something she had to do, to produce the best CEO, with the best genes through a coordinated marriage, even using him to make deals with others that would only benefit her, Jumin also blames the way he turned out on his mother, saying that his therapist tells him to ignore her actions, and her telling him to be silent about his desires and needs, to control other and keep his dignity safe, telling him that work and power and honor matter more than love and family. saying that she sees no reason to treat him like a son instead of a tool since it's a “non-profitable task”, and that if he wants her to be a mother to him, he should be something else to her.

Their relationship was later shown to be much more toxic, Carolyn bordering on mental and physical abuse to control Jumin. because according to her Jumin was born the way she wanted him to be, perfect. with no twists or turn, however that made him “far from a human being”, making him nothing like a child, that “he’s exactly to way she wants him to be, but he's creeping her out”, frustrated, she asked him why he can't have fun like other ordinary, unfocused, disoriented children, with Jumin responding with “You are the one who made me like this”. Which resulted in Carolyn forcefully locking Jumin up in a basement filled with toys on several occasions to get him to act “normal”, the longest time being 17 hours and 14 minutes, she was satisfied that he was growing like her, but at the same time she hated it, which eventually led her to avoid him completely.

Jumin said that they both wanted an ordinary loving mother-son relationship, but “both of them had no love to provide each other with”.

Jaehee Kang

Jumin and Jaehee have a professional relationship, although a bit strained. Jumin does not hesitate to often say blunt, and rather hurtful things to Jaehee, such as stating he's tired of hearing her voice, and straight out saying he doesn't care about her health or well-being. She is also the one tasked to watch over Elizabeth 3rd when Jumin is out of the country, much to Jaehee's displeasure. Jaehee does show a bit of respect to Jumin regardless, whether or not this is voluntary or her forcing herself to be respectful for the sake of her job is up for debate. Jumin tells Jaehee to do many things that go beyond her role as an assistant (leading a presentation, looking over Jumin's cat, etc.) and he has a deep trust in Jaehee, to the point that she is one of the very few people who has the passcode to his penthouse. The two know a lot about each other due to being side by side for many hours of the day.

During Jaehee's route, it is shown how much Jumin relies on Jaehee as both an assistant and as her being one of the very few people he trusts and who can understand him on some level. He shows distress when Jaehee resigns from the position, due to her being extremely competent at her job as well as the fact as he relies on her for many things. They appear to be on somewhat good terms in Jaehee's After Ending as he is invited with the other members to the MC and Jaehee's bakery, though Jumin does not appear entirely enthusastic about it.

In Jumin's route, it is shown that Jumin does value Jaehee's opinion when he asks her for her view on whether he obsesses over cats too much for it to be considered normal. He also expresses his appreciation for Jaehee and her work if the MC passes all game branches, apologising and thanking Jaehee for her hard work in finding information about Glam Choi and Sarah, telling Jaehee that he is not completely blind to the effort she puts in and tells her to give him dates so that she can have a holiday to which Jaehee is clearly surprised and shocked.

Zen

Jumin and Zen share a somewhat strange friendship; the two can never get along and are always bickering, though it is more on Zen's side as he dislikes Jumin simply for his upbringing and because Jumin reminds Zen of his brother, with whom he has a bad relationship with after his brother began to verbally abuse Zen. Jumin teases Zen with photos of Elizabeth, aware of how Zen suffers from a severe cat allergy. However, Jumin doesn't actively hate Zen and is all the more willing to help him; during Zen's route, he sends the MC over to Zen's house, knowing that she will be able to cheer Zen up after he broke his leg and won't be able to take the role he was offered. Jumin says it is under the guise of having the MC convince Zen to be the model for his latest cat project, but he continues to help Zen, despite the latter's reluctance.

Depending on the MC's choices in Zen's route, Jumin and Zen can become friends and overcome their differences, with Jumin handing him an olive branch in the form of being a model for his father's teacup project instead. Zen declines and says he would rather be the face of his cat project and the two share some light hearted banter. Jumin is a big help in revealing Echo Girl's lies about being sexually assaulted by Zen and the two become closer as a result.

In all other routes, the two continue to bicker, with Jumin teasing Zen and Zen becoming annoyed.

V

Jumin and V are childhood friends, having grown up in the same neighborhood and are incredibly close friends; the two met when Jumin crashed his toy car into V's house while he was playing and Jumin asked V what he wanted for compensation, with V saying that he wanted Jumin to be his friend. They made a contract which Jumin still has to this day. Jumin was the main cause of V deciding to reconcile with his mother, telling his friend to meet and form his own opinion of her instead of being solely influenced by his father.

During Jumin's route, it is revealed that V was the one who gave and named Jumin's prized pet, Elizabeth 3rd at Rika's behest. After Elizabeth escapes the penthouse and is shortly recovered, Jumin thinks about returning Elizabeth to V. V is the only one out of the RFA to help Jumin finally overcome his anxiety of losing the MC and convinces him that she needs to leave in order to prepare for the party; V, with the support of the MC, reassures Jumin to take Elizabeth back instead of giving her to his friend after being reassured that he could be a good owner. It is also hinted Jumin had feelings for Rika but even so, his friendship with V was more dear to him and Rika even commented that she felt like an outsider whenever the three were together. Jumin respects V's judgement, as seen when Jumin automatically accepts the main character into the RFA when V gives his approval. Jumin was the only RFA member who trusted V after V left the RFA in 707's route, actively searching for V afterwards. When 'V' (actually Seven who was using V's phone) sends the RFA members coordinates to where they're being captured, Jumin insists on taking a helicopter to where V is himself.

At V's funeral, Jumin states that V was 'a good friend, a good teacher, and a mirror of truth'. He also states that he would never forgive V for leaving them the way he did, although it's implied that Jumin knows the truth behind V's actual death.

During V's route, Jumin reveals how deeply he cares for his friend and he remains steadfastly loyal, despite finding out that V lied about Rika dying. After regaining contact with the MC and 707, Jumin uses his influence to have V immediately prepped for surgery and is deeply grateful towards the MC for helping V; Jumin also tells the MC that V had called Jumin to request that should anything happen to him, that Jumin should look after the MC and make sure she is cared for and loved. So strong is his love towards his friend, Jumin is unmerciful towards Rika and tells her that they will destroy Mint Eye and she will pay for her crimes, with her stabbing V being the worst in his eyes.

It is revealed in V's Good Ending that Jumin has remained in contact with V but it is scarce, the last time he has heard from his friend being three months prior when he was in Alaska.

Yoosung

Yoosung and Jumin don't share a close friendship but care for each other nonetheless; before Rika's death, Jumin had even offered Yoosung a place at his company as he saw great potential in the boy. During Yoosung's route, Yoosung asks if that offer still stands and Jumin states that it does, even despite the fact Yoosung neglected his studies.

In 707's route, Jumin calls Yoosung's mother as an act of kindness towards Yoosung, hoping that his mother would be able to put her son's life back on track. Many of the members feel that he overstepped his boundaries but Jumin remains adamant that it was the right thing to do. Eventually, Yoosung admits to being grateful towards Jumin as he had missed his mother and that her company had helped him somewhat.

707

Seven1

707 caught in CCTV playing with Elizabeth

Jumin and 707 share an awkward friendship; Jumin dislikes 707's treatment of Elizabeth and all other cats, while 707 takes great pleasure in teasing Jumin for his doting nature towards his cat and for his lack of interest in women, asking Jumin if he is gay, resulting in Jumin becoming annoyed and leaving the group chat whenever it is brought up. However, Jumin trusts 707 just as deeply as he does V, despite the hacker's endless teasing of him.

Rika

Jumin seems to have had great respect and trust for Rika, believing that she was one of the few good women out there who liked him for him and not for his money. It is hinted that Jumin had romantic feelings towards Rika as he stated that she was never meant to be his, but when Rika asks Jumin if they would have ended up together, Jumin tells her not to say things like that as they make him uncomfortable. Jumin then proceeds to project onto Elizabeth, saying to V that whenever he looks at Elizabeth, he sees Rika in her stead.

In V's route, whatever trust Jumin might have had towards Rika is gone when it is revealed that Rika stabbed V in a fit of anger. He bitterly rejects Rika and swears that she will pay for her crimes with Mint Eye and that she has become delusional and unstable; he also comments that her methods of "salvation" are wrong and that she was a coward for not staying with her followers, but instead leaving them to hide in her apartment. However, after her apparent death, Jumin is mournful at her passing and is visibly upset.

Chairman Han

Jumin and his father share a loving relationship with one another; despite this, Jumin strongly dislikes how easily his father moves from woman to woman but keeps his thoughts to himself as he values his relationship with his father more. The two frequently dine and exchange extravagant gifts with one another and it is clear Jumin deeply respects and loves his father.

In Jumin's route, Jumin reveals that he realised when he was younger that his father was kind to him, not because he wanted anything, but because he truly loved his son and that made Jumin want to become closer with his father; as a result, Jumin because increasingly unstable when his father attempts to force Jumin into marriage despite his protests. He admits to the MC that he feels genuinely upset and frustrated at his father and that he feels like he has hit a dead end. It takes a long time for father and son to reconcile when Jumin admits to his father that he understands the feelings he has towards Glam, however shallow, as he has fallen in love with the MC; this shocks the chairman and he agrees to not force the marriage upon Jumin any longer since he has feelings for another woman.

During the party, the chairman is momentarily angry with Jumin for confessing that he loves the MC, but it soon turns to shock when Jumin reveals that Glam had forced Sarah, who is actually her sister, to get plastic surgery and to change her identity in order to marry Jumin, with Glam marrying the chairman for money as well. In his After Ending, the two are once again close and the chairman has kept away from the dating life after his disastrous relationship with Glam.

Elizabeth the 3rd

Jumin's selfie with his beloved Elizabeth

Jumin deeply loves his cat more than anything in the world and spoils her endlessly with treats and toys. He believes that the only woman he needs in his life is Elizabeth and is often described by the other members as "cat obsessed", what with many conversations with him turning into about cats.

It is learned that he received Elizabeth from V and Rika as a gift and that V was the one who named her; however, his love for his cat runs deeper and it is revealed that Jumin projects his crippling loneliness onto the cat in order to cope. Because of his dependence on Elizabeth, he becomes overwrought with despair when he realises that their relationship was never real and that it was all made up in his head. He is worryingly paranoid about Glam and Sarah stealing Elizabeth to force him into marriage and he decides to lock her in a cage in order to protect her; this has a strain on the cat's health and love for her master and, when Jumin takes her out to show the MC how to care for her, she runs away from the penthouse. This leads Jumin to become increasingly more unstable and instead turn to the MC to project his feelings.

Eventually, Elizabeth is recovered by Yoosung and, depending on the MC's choices, returned to Jumin after being reassured that he was a good owner by both V and the MC.

MC

Jumin's relationship with the MC is entirely dependent on the MC's behavior; for the most part, Jumin is somewhat wary of the MC at the beginning but accepts her into the group solely because he trusts V. Throughout each route, Jumin will offer advice for the MC and often give his viewpoint on the relationship she is pursuing; he remains supportive of the MC and Zen's relationship while all others are unsure since the two never met before. During V's route, Jumin is deeply grateful towards the MC for protecting and looking after V after he was drugged by Mint Eye and reveals that V had called him to make sure that to look after the MC if he did not survive.

Jumin professes his love for the MC in his Good Ending and proposes to her in front of the RFA and reporters

During Jumin's route, Jumin becomes unaware in his feelings towards the MC but acts on them unconsciously, such as saying to Jaehee and the MC that he would be jealous if the MC appeared in Zen's dream after Jaehee told him to stop being jealous about the fact Zen dreamed of Elizabeth. Due to never being in a relationship before, Jumin's feelings for the MC are too much for him to handle as he has spent much of his life repressing emotions and the sudden onslaught of feelings have sent him into a tailspin; he becomes obsessively protective over the MC and his anxiety over losing her increases tenfold when Elizabeth escapes the penthouse. Their relationship from then on depends on the MC's behaviour and actions, allowing it to either deteriorate into a BDSM relationship or, if the MC remains understanding and helpful of Jumin, letting it become a real relationship after the MC helps Jumin "untangle" his emotions.

In his After Ending, it is revealed that Jumin and the MC married quickly as Jumin did not want to spend a single day without her by his side.
