Shi Mo
A high school student who likes outdoor activities. He is naturally talented and a clear-minded thinker. However, he can act rashly at times.
Raised by a single father since childhood, he has trouble interacting with the opposite sex.
Because of his strong sense of justice, he has a history of clashing with bullies.
His behavior can't be explained away as self-satisfaction or a sense of morality. Perhaps this is why humans are complicated.
