DG
--

* Diego Kang
* James Lee

**DG** **(*Diego Kang*; 강다겸 *Kang Dagyum*)** is a famous Korean idol and also the head of PTJ Entertainment, an idol training agency. He is one of Charles Choi's Ten Geniuses and has close ties with him. He used to be known as **James Lee** but discarded this identity. He is known as the legend of the 1st generation. During the 1st Generation, Charles Choi used **DG** to murder Gapryong Kim. This incident was completely hidden, according to Eugene, it was the incident with the murder of Baekho Kwon and Gapryong Kim that was Charles' weakness. He’s one of the few people who knows about Daniel Park having two bodies.

## Appearance

DG is a very attractive young man who has dyed pink hair and dark colored eyes. He has pale skin and a slim body figure. He is usually seen wearing dark sunglasses and has a tattoo on his forearm.

Now, when acting as James Lee, he wears an all white outfit with a woolen sweatshirt and face mask.

Previously, DG as James Lee possessed red hair and a somewhat wild expression with a malicious grin punctuated by sharp teeth.

## Personality

DG is more cool and composed than most, if not all, characters in Lookism. He tends to watch and observe others silently, but when he talks, he acts quite aloof and distant, only warming up to a few people. DG is also very honest, but he doesn't talk much so it's sometimes difficult to know what he is thinking.

He is known to be extremely intelligent and talented. A hall of his trophies and awards were displayed in his previous school which is now abandoned, showing his expertise in various fields. Some of the awards includes him being a champion in art, poetry, golf, swimming, tennis, and many more.

Back in the 1st generation, James was extremely ruthless. He made sure to leave a mark or reminder to each of the Kings by either incising or removing a part of their body, like Taesoo Ma's eye.

## Fighting Prowess

As the legend of the first generation, DG is immensely powerful and is one of the strongest fighters in the PTJ verse. He single handedly took down Darius Hong and his gang with ease, showing prodigal skill in combat. It is said that he ended the first generation, a notorious era of well known fighters. He bested Taesoo Ma, the "King Of Ansan" in a fight with little to no injuries. He fights using an acrobatic style , and being incredibly quick and swift, to dodge other's attacks. His fighting style is described to be very graceful.

In chapter 428, he fought the J High trio and says that he will spare Big Deal and Burn Knuckles if they manage to land a single clean hit on him. Over the course of the fight, he overpowered the trio with little to no effort while keeping his left hand in his pocket.

Also in the past James Lee maimed the entire 1st gen (whose fodder is on the level of Heat Daniel vs Taesoo Ma) with no damage taken, and called beating all the kings a fun thing to do, but still took a body part for his plan.

As of chapter 463 it is shown that in the past during his fight with Gongseob Ji, James was shown an incredible technique by Gongseob called the 'Gongseob Ji Counter' where it is described to be a double edge sword as you need to have an immense desire to not fall and to win to get back up to land a devastating punch on your opponent that could potentially end the fight with your win, but it was shown that either James dodged the attack (which is completely possible for him to) or take the attack head on and receive no damage whatsoever. Even James wanted to learn the technique but Gongseob declined and stated he would never take on a student (which changed) and made the stone faced sarcastic James Lee lament and sigh stating that its sad that Gongseob will have to retire and that the technique will fall with him.

## Quotes

* *I would love to stop making enemies, but once again I've ended up with even more of them.*

## Etymology

* The name **Shion** is written in hiragana (しおん), which has no special meaning. However, when written in kanji (紫苑 or 詩音), it could possibly mean:
	+ 紫苑 - "aster", a plant of the daisy family that has bright rayed flowers, typically of purple or pink.
	+ 詩音 - "poetry, poem" (詩) (**shi**) and "sound" (音) (**on**).
* Shion's surname **Izaki** means "that one" (伊) (**i**) and "cape, peninsula" (崎) (**saki**/**zaki**).

## Trivia

* Based on the trophies previously showcased at his old school, DG excels in a variety of domains besides fighting such as art, poetry, swimming, golf and tennis.

* DG first appeared in episode 19 in a poster on student's Namsoo Lee's Wall.
* He has an angel motif, established by his all white clothing and graceful fighting style. This contrasts with Gun Park who has a demon motif.
* In Episode 479, people started to believe that DG is actually Charles's second body. This speculation however has been invalid as in Episode 480, DG said he had followed Charles's action on "kidnapping" Baek Gyul because Charles was scared that Gyul could ask Park Jin Young about his weakness.
