—Woo Seungtae | ||
Woo Seungtae (우승태, Woo Seungtae; "Seungtae Woo") was an old friend of Han Daewi. They were nicknamed as duo "Mad Cows". He passes away from his illness.
Appearance[]
Seungtae had short light brown hair that spiked up in the front. Once he got sick however, he lost his hair and wore a hat to cover it.[1]
Personality[]
Seungtae is shown to be a friendly person, but also headstrong with his beliefs, unwavering from threats or harsh words. He is seen to have a strong sense of loyalty as he fought along side Dae-Wi against the bullies at school while constantly reminding him to stick up for his friends.
History[]
During Daewi's flashback, it is shown that he was carrying a large stack of papers, until Dae-Wi and his gang bumps into him causing him to drop it all. Seungtae quickly gets up and apologizes, offering a handshake, but Dae-Wi ignores it and walks off.
When one of Dae-Wi's gang-friends comes rushing to him informing of his other gang-friends being captured, Daewi dismisses it saying it isn't his problem. Seungtae who was in the same class at time tells him that he shouldn't abandon his followers. Dae-Wi, annoyed, threatens if he had a death-wish but Seungtae is unphased from the threats. He continues to tell him to help them. The bell rings and class begins.
Dae-Wi's gang is being beaten up, but Dae-Wi shows up where he ends up fighting against all of the rival gang. However, his own gang then runs off, resulting him to continue fighting alone. Fortunately, Seungtae suddenly shows up to help. He teasingly states he felt responsible for putting him up to the task.
They manage to defeat all the gangsters that were there, but more rival-gangs show up. Daewi dismisses his followers, saying they don't care about him, but Seungtae tells him to believe in them. Soon enough, his gang returns to help fend off the rest of the gangs.
The details are unknown as to what happens beyond this flashback, but they eventually become best friends. Due to his influence, Daewi is now a good student who pays attention in class and gets his work done. However in the recent situation, Seungtae suddenly becomes sick with cancer which is the main motivation for Dae-Wi to change from his old ways and to help his friend.
