In his high school year, Hwang Jae was called "Pervert pig" and was treated badly by his classmate except for his class president, Lee Ruri, who protected him. He fell in love with her and was his first love. She later helped tutor him once a week. One day while waiting for Ruri, he encountered Han Bum-Man talking on the phone (about Ruri). A moment later after the meet up with Ruri, she introduced an important person to her, this is none other than Bum-Man. Upon realization that Bum-Man is a player, Hwang Jae planned to tell Ruri, but Bum-Man counter-attacked by saying that Hwang Jae liked her. Though he told it was a joke, Ruri was mad and left. Walking on the stress with depressed he found the book "Skill of Lure" however he got looked down by Bum-man. Full with anger, Hwang Jae rushed and pushed Bum-man, failed the subway ended up in the hospital. One year later, Hwang Jae appeared again but a new person known as a pick-up artist.

## Appearance

In his old days, Hwange Jae was fat and not as good looking as he is currently. After losing to Han Bum-Man, Hwange made a complete change. While in his "pick up artist" state, he does not wear glasses and seems to not have any beard. In the day, he's usually wearing a jacket and boxer shorts. He seems to have only a few set of clothes but his favorite one is a big red coat with a white short.<

## Personality

Before becoming a pick-up artist, Hwang Jae seems to be a lonely person and did not have a lot of friends. He was quiet and not much talkative. However, he blushed a lot in front of his crush, Lee Ruri. After the incident and now becoming a pick-up artist, he is attractive and calm. Unlike Bum-Man, Hwang Jae treats girls nicely and with respect, also doesn't view them as a toy. He teaches Jang Sung-Gi that being a pick-up artist is not about picking up girls but to get hold of the girl you truly love. He also mentions that even if Sung-Gi knows the skill, he needs to use it with heart or otherwise it will be worthless. Hwang Jae is a kind person and is never proud of himself as a legendary pick-up artist.
