Do-yoon Han

Full-Body Sprite

**Do-yoon Han** (Korean: 한도윤, *Han Do-yun*) is the player character in Buried Stars. He was the bassist and founder of the band Masquerade, and all the members joined the competition Buried Stars. Because Do-yoon was the only band member to make it to the finals, many people assume that he is a "Betrayer" who abandoned his comrades. At the time of the collapse, he is in 4th place with 800,693 votes.

## Appearance

Do-yoon is a young man of average height and build. He has short black hair with bangs and black eyes. There is a small mole under his right eye, which is said to be the sign of an empathetic and alluring person. He has three pairs of black earrings: two snug earlobe loops and one stud. He wears a red jacket with studs on the shoulders, black lapels, three pairs of black belts on the upper arms, white zippers on the breast pockets and forearms, and an undone black belt around the waist. He also wears a white T-shirt, black slacks, and black boots with two black straps over the laces. There is a pair of white wired headphones around his neck, showing his preference for vintage items, and he wears black fingerless gloves.

Do-yoon was given a makeover during an early episode of Buried Stars; he had a significantly different appearance during most of his time in the band Masquerade. He had long black hair and wore red contact lenses. His earrings were silver and he had several more piercings including two black loops in his left eyebrow, one silver loop on the front of his tongue, and one black silver stud under his lip.

## Relationships

### Hyesung Seo

Do-yoon appreciated Hyesung's "earnest side" after getting to know him over the course of the show, according to the survey. Even when Hyesung becomes aggressive after the collapse, Do-yoon has the option to say "I can understand him", one of the triggers for B Route.

### Inha Oh

Inha and Do-yoon are friends. They were presented as a possible romantic pair by the Buried Stars producers, but Do-yoon even says later he's not taken in by her beauty.

### Juyoung Min

Do-yoon had been aware of her performance in BELOVED and admires her strength. Over the course of her rapport events, he supports her through reflections on difficult experiences.

### Gyu-hyuk Lee

Do-yoon and Gyu-hyuk became friends over the course of the show; Gyu-hyuk listed Do-yoon as "The TOP 5 Contestant I’m Closest To", though Do-yoon simply said he would rather not pick just one person. When the stage began to collapse, Do-yoon impulsively thought that he should save someone else, and even if he didn't survive himself, at least he would not be a betrayer anymore. He saved Gyu-hyuk's life and was touched by Gyu-hyuk's gratitude towards him. During the investigations, he was always reassured by Gyu-hyuk's presence. The path where they both survive without revealing the truth leads to the "Mutual Reliance" ending.

One of the main events of C Route is Do-yoon meeting "That", which appeared in the form of a specific person "just as you wanted": Gyu-hyuk. The FAQ says *The reason that Do-yoon saw Gyu-hyuk was that he desperately longed for "a person who is proof that he is not a traitor,” just as he was thinking when he was buried under the rubble.*

### Seil Chang

Do-yoon was distinctly polite and thankful towards Seil during the course of the show. After the collapse, Do-yoon was always determined to get justice for Seil, whether proving that his death was not a suicide in A Route, or encouraging him to reveal his secrets in B Route.

### Seungyeon Shin

Seungyeon pointed out to Do-yoon that he needed to accept the deterioration of Masquerade and move forward without them. Because of all the pressure, he felt "ambivalent" even towards her death.
