Jin

*"Time to farm some experience!"* —Jin

*Jin* is an unlockable Investigator in White Noise 2.

## Description

With a blooming eSports career and a flawless academic record, Jin only needs to improve his mental strength to be able to overcome any challenge.

When Yumi told him about The Hunt, his eyes sparkled with excitement. Will he be able to face the darkest of creatures?

### Appearance

Jin is a tall male with a white complexion. He wears glasses with yellow lenses as well as a black and red headset with the microphone being extended to reach his mouth. His hair is black, along with some parts of his clothes. Most of his clothes are red and black, with white being used for the text "RED PHANTOMS," which is an eSports team Jin leads. The logo for the Red Phantoms is on both of his shoulders, and his full name, Jin Woo, is on the back. Jin also has three tattoos, one of which is a sword going through a red apple with gold paper surrounding it.

## Tips

Due to his high Flashlight stat and above-average Endurance, Jin specializes in guarding his teammates and sitting at the back of the group checking behind him for The Creature. QUICK REFLEXES allows Jin to recover from certain powers or traps much faster than his teammates, which is aided even further with his Dressed Up skin and a Flashlight that increases Stealth, such as the Electric Lighter. Jin is also able to caboose effectively if he has a flashlight with a high range, such as the Spotlight. However, due to high-range flashlights generally slowing the Investigator down and Jin's below-average Speed, he is limited to certain caboosing flashlights.

Jin can be a powerful ally but becomes much less effective if he is grabbed due to TENSE. His Bravery will plummet along with his already low Speed decreasing because of his low Vitality, which will limit his ability to guard and caboose effectively. The Stuntman skin can make this less of a problem, but it also lowers his Stealth, which will make QUICK REFLEXES less effective. Jin also suffers from low Exploration, which becomes even worse if the player is using his Beachy skin. Jin should always be close to Investigators so Paranoia doesn't affect his Exploration as much. Similar to his Stuntman skin, Jin's Student skin can be used to make his Exploration less of a problem at the cost of making TENSE a bigger obstacle. As such, Jin benefits the most from flashlights such as the Spotlight and Reading Lamp.

## Trivia

* Jin's name is the shortest out of every Investigator in all three White Noise games, consisting of only three letters.
* Jin is the only Investigator to have another Investigator mentioned in their description, having heard of The Hunt from Yumi.
	+ As such, Yumi and Jin are currently the only Investigators who are confirmed to know about The Hunt.
* Jin and Denali are currently the last Investigators to be released, having been added in Update #24: Poisonous Shadows.
* Jin and Anne Marie are the only Investigators to wear glasses in their default skins.
* Jin has the lowest possible Exploration in the game, made possible by using his Beachy skin and the Toy Torch, which will lower his Exploration to less than one full point.
* Jin is the only Investigator to have their full name be known, having his name appear on his shirt in large, white print.
	+ Strangely, Jin is referred to as *Jin Wu* in the Credits, making it ambiguous if Jin's last name is spelled as Wu or Woo.
* Jin's Stuntman skin is named Dragon in his reference image.
* Jin's Student skin is used for the headshot image on Emma Salamanca's website.
