Hong Gil-Dong, named after the famous Korean folk hero, likes to keep himself mysterious. Few, if any, know who he really is, or if Gil is even his real name. He's convinced it's better this way. What Gil does let people know, is that he is one of the most prodigious, talented young hackers of his time. No computer system is safe. Personal computers, data servers, city infrastructure, everything is a potential target.

Calling Gil rebellious would be an understatement. With everything he does, Gil aims to undermine authorities and spur unrest, albeit in a cool-headed, calculating manner. He has the best of intentions at heart, naturally, but he tends to take his ideals too far. Preferring to work from afar, Gil tries to use his connections to influence events and bring people onto his side. He can be a bit of a bleeding heart, trying to take everyone's well-being into account, but he does have a ruthless side he shows to those he believes aren't capable of change.

Gil virtually never uses leetspeak, and rarely uses memes.
Gil is vegetarian and straight-edge.
Gil can speak Korean, but he's super rusty, so he doesn't use it often.
