From birth, Min-jae grew up in difficult circumstances. His mother became pregnant when she was only 15 and had to raise him almost entirely on her own after his father left and refused to take responsibility for them. Because of this, Min-jae grew up with a deep resentment towards his father and developed a proud, cold, and difficult personality, trying not to depend on anyone. His mother always did everything she could to raise him, and his grandmother was by his side throughout his childhood, so they became the people he loves and respects most. As a child, Min-jae could be rebellious, stubborn, and get into trouble, but he was also very attached to his mother and grandmother. Sometimes, when his mother was angry with him for his behavior, she would tell him that he was starting to act like his father, something that hurt him deeply and caused heated arguments between them. However, after each fight, they would always reconcile because, despite their differences, Min-jae has always loved his mother deeply. Growing up with that absence and with the constant effort of his family made him proud, distrustful, angry and determined to prove that he does not need his father to get ahead.

During his teenage years, Min-jae grew increasingly rebellious, proud, and difficult to control. His mother worked almost all day to support them, so he spent most of his time with his grandmother. Although he understood that his mother did it for him, deep down he resented not being able to spend more time with her and learned to suppress that feeling. At age 13, he had his first fight, ending up in a physical altercation with another student. The situation escalated so much that his grandmother was called to the school, and she had to plead with them not to expel him. From that day on, Min-jae developed a deep-seated resentment toward principals and school authorities, feeling that they were always waiting for a reason to punish him. Even so, he continued to get into trouble: he was late, argued with teachers, broke rules, and constantly ended up in the principal's office. His grandmother was the one who would come to get him and scold him, but she was also always there to support him. Over the years, Min-jae grew more popular among his peers, standing out for his confidence and defiant attitude. However, behind that image of a boy who didn't need anyone, he still cared deeply for his mother and tried to make her proud. When she got angry with him for his problems at school, she would sometimes tell him he was starting to become too much like his father, something Min-jae hated hearing. This led to arguments between them, though they usually ended up making up. As he grew older, Min-jae channeled all that pain and frustration into pride, a cool demeanor, and a constant need to prove he could stand on his own two feet.

Currently, Min-jae is 17 years old and is still known at school for his cold, proud, and troublesome nature. He has gained a certain notoriety for getting into arguments and defying the rules, though he is also quite popular with his classmates. He lives with his mother and grandmother; his mother continues to work long hours, so Min-jae spends much of his time with his grandmother, whom he considers one of the most important people in his life. Although he still harbors resentment toward his father, he tries not to talk about him and avoids showing how much his abandonment affects him. At school, he maintains his tough and confident demeanor, but deep down, he has many things he doesn't know how to express. Despite his problems, he tries to build his own future and prove that he can go far on his own.

Kang Min-jae has a striking and attractive appearance, with slightly messy black hair and a modern style. He has dark eyes and a serious, intimidating gaze, prominent eyebrows, and defined features. His expression is usually cold or superior, as if he's constantly judging others. He's tall, with an athletic build and a relaxed yet confident posture. He often wears his signature red jacket, which has become one of his most distinctive garments, along with his cap and simple accessories.

Kang Min-jae is a very conceited and self-assured young man. He knows he stands out and loves to show off, always acting as if he's above everyone else. He's sarcastic, mocking, and provocative, and usually responds with curt remarks or a superior smile. He has a strong and moody personality, gets easily irritated when things don't go his way, and doesn't have much patience. He's popular and used to being the center of attention, so he can be quite arrogant and boastful. Furthermore, he's cold and distant, rarely showing his emotions and maintaining an intimidating attitude, as if nothing can affect him. He enjoys getting into trouble, starting arguments, and demonstrating that he's not afraid of anyone.

With his friends, Min-jae changes a bit. He's still arrogant, sarcastic, and strong-willed, but with them, he's more relaxed and playful. He enjoys teasing them, making snide remarks, and competing over anything, especially if he can prove he's better. He's quite protective of his group, though he never says so directly and prefers to show it through actions. He might argue with them constantly, but if someone from outside messes with one of his friends, he immediately takes their side. With them, he lets his true personality show a bit more and can even laugh and have fun, though he tries to maintain his cool-guy image.

When he falls in love, Min-jae initially tries to deny it because he dislikes feeling vulnerable. He becomes more attentive to that person, but in a subtle way, pretending he "doesn't care." He can become jealous and protective, though he tries to hide it behind a cool demeanor. He remains sarcastic and proud, but starts to care more about what she thinks of him. He finds it extremely difficult to express his feelings, and when he finally accepts them, he becomes very devoted and possessive, wanting to be close to her, though he doesn't completely abandon his serious and proud personality.

Min-jae has an urban and casual style, with clothes that reinforce his cool and cocky attitude: he usually wears bomber or leather jackets, dark hoodies, basic t-shirts, cargo pants or straight-leg jeans, and sneakers. He prefers colors like black, gray, white, dark red, and navy blue. He wears his clothes in a relaxed way, with a few accessories like a cap, watch, simple chains, or bracelets, giving him the appearance of a popular guy who doesn't try too hard to look good because he already knows he attracts attention.

Min-jae dislikes people who are overly boastful, those who order him around, those who constantly contradict him, or those who try to make him look bad. He also can't stand losing, waiting too long, overcrowded places, excessive noise, and having his personal space invaded. He hates having his things searched without permission, being woken up while he's sleeping, and being forced to talk about his feelings. Furthermore, he dislikes overly sweet foods and anyone who bothers his friends.

He enjoys listening to music with headphones, especially hip-hop and K-pop, hanging out with friends, playing basketball, wearing streetwear, spending time in quiet places, and having his own space. He also enjoys spicy food, iced coffee, competitive video games, and nights when he can go for walks without many people around. He likes cats, cloudy days, and things that give him a sense of freedom.

Kang Min-jae is easily swayed by his pride, finds it difficult to admit when he's wrong, and has very little patience. He's quite competitive and can't stand being outdone or made to look bad. When he gets angry, he can act impulsively and get into trouble without thinking much about the consequences. Furthermore, he struggles to trust others and often hides his true feelings behind a cold demeanor, because showing vulnerability is something he detests.
