Wooin/Relationships

## Relationships

### Dr. Delein

Wooin was Dr. Delein's student, the latter took him in as a child and kept him as his student ever since. Wooin's powers resemble his a lot. Though Dr. Delein was quite callous and cold to Wooin in the early chapters of the series, they seem to care about each other, and Wooin remains loyal to him even if he was abused by him for defying his order. When captured by the Union, he makes a deal with Seongha Park that the Union would protect Wooin if he were to tell them what they wanted and Dr. Delein seems pleased to hear that Wooin is gaining good friends.

### Jiwoo Seo

Wooin considers Jiwoo as his first and close friend and cares for Jiwoo greatly. Their first interaction was rather one-sided, with Jiwoo Seo worried as to why Wooin did not come to class. Whilst searching for the Awakened Cat under Dr. Delein's order, Wooin-after finding out it was Jiwoo who had taken the cat had initially though of him to be a tracker. However, this was later a misunderstanding that led Wooin to ask Jiwoo to forget everything, albeit unsuccessful. Wooin even protected him from Dr. Delein's wrath as he could not stand for the innocent Jiwoo to be 'disposed off' and felt immense guilt for hurting him. Although they were not close, Wooin is happy that Jiwoo had considered him as a friend, and also grateful for saving him and Dr. Delein from being killed by Kayden. After being released from the Union, Wooin finds that Jiwoo did not return to school for some time and had suspected Jisuk's little gang to be the cause of it. However, after hearing Jisuk confess he was responsible for sending Jiwoo to the hospital, Wooin was in rage, demanding for a fight to avenge his newfound friend, Jiwoo. It's shown that at this point, Wooin deeply cares for Jiwoo and was even more riled up from seeing Jiwoo's injuries.

Wooin is seen to blush towards Jiwoo more often then other characters which insinuates he likes being praised and becomes jealous when Jiwoo Seo gets closer to other individuals, like Jisuk Yoo. When they first started at the academy, Wooin also stood with Jiwoo against Jeongsu Lee who pushed the two to reveal their powers.

### Jisuk Yoo

When they first met they're relationship was quite hostile, Wooin had already been bullied by Jisuk's friends and Wooin presumed that Jisuk was an enemy and immediately instigated a fight with Jisuk after he found out he was responsible for sending Jiwoo to the hospital. Even when Seongha Park and Inhyuk Goo intervened, he insisted they still fight. After their fight in one of Shinhwa's Training Facility, which ended them up in the same hospital room as Jiwoo's, they continued to bicker over the smallest of things, such as a game of cards where Jisuk supposedly cheated, but nevertheless their relationship was less calmer. By the time they both stayed at Jiwoo's house overnight, they seemed to have stopped bickering. When Wooin was taken by the Klein Brothers, Jisuk went with Jiwoo to rescue him showing that Jisuk had considered their friendship between them, though it was covered by a thinly veiled excuse of protecting Shinhwa and his sister. They both carry a similar protective streak over Jiwoo as they both went to check on Jiwoo at night after Shinhwa's agents broke in.

By the time Jiwoo fought with Jaehyuk Lee, Wooin considered Jisuk a friend. When Dr. Delein teased him about being on his phone "friend" after Jisuk sent him a selfie with Jiwoo who has just beaten Jaehyuk in the background, Wooin corrected him awkwardly, informing him that he was talking to "Friends" with a flustered look on his face.

### Seongha Park

Seongha is a Union member who looks after Wooin after Dr. Delein is arrested by the Awakened Union for committing forced awakening experiments. Seongha is very impressed with Wooin's powers and wishes him to join the Union because of this.

### Subin Lee

After Seongha Park offers Wooin to join the Union Subin searches for Wooin to "Test" his worth. They spar at Shinhwa's training facilities however it is stopped by Inhyuk Goo and Seongha Park after Subin starts to argue with Jisuk, though seemingly Subin had seen enough of Wooin's powers to approve of him. Ever since then she will hang around Wooin with Jisuk and Jiwoo but will refuse to refer to them as her friends.
