Sam has black, soot colored eyes. Eyes that look dirty and unappealing. His eye lids are simple mono-lids, nothing else. His straight and uncured brows are hidden by his hair most of the time. Sam is the typical Korean man if you met him. However, he is from North Korea instead of South. Sam is more than average in height especially after living in North Korea. His long body makes his figure look slender and frail even though he can take punches to the gut and can go through starvation.
From childhood to the age of twenty-three, Samuel had been stuck in North Korea. He was brainwashed and fought for everything in life. Even his own life because of cannibalism. Samuel was scarred when he saw his own mother chewing on one of his friends one night. From then on, he realized life was a competition. Time went on as Samuel actually found one good thing in his life. His wife, Hye-Mi, at the age of seventeen.
As word went around through the concentration camps, he found out that there was a way to be able to leave. Two ways: Bribing the guards with a large amount of money.. even though that won't guarantee you'll get out in one piece. Or, becoming a secret traitor. Having to be sent to South Korea and find out some special information of the Government. Even having to kill people. That also doesn't guarantee gaining freedom in one piece.
Taking a chance since there wasn't anyway to get money in the time he planned to leave, he decided to work for North Korea. He had to leave his wife behind for a couple of months as he began his mission to take out a North Korean agent working for the opposing government faction. While he was in this mission, it traumatized him, killing someone for the first time, having pressure on him not to mess up, etc. Just when he thought the mission was over, his wife was sent over and was going to be exchanged with him. He'd get his wife if he gave the agent over. Once this exchange was starting, it was actually a set up. The very last member that was involved with the agent had tracked down Samuel and killed his wife right when the transaction was going to be completed. It devastated him completely, he was a murderer for nothing. He wanted to be the one that died. When his wife had been murdered, he had only been twenty-five while his wife was twenty-three.
For five years, Samuel was in prison. While he was there, he learned english. Not to the point where he perfected it but just enough to keep a small-talk conversation going. Samuel turned himself in after seeing his wife die in front of him, he believed that there wouldn't be anything better and he deserved a life being alone after killing men. Once he was released, he couldn't stand the site of being in Korea anywhere. That's when he decided to move to America. He changed his name from Sook Hyun to Samuel. Now, he's been living a simple life. For the first year in America, he was an apprentice of a Sushi chef. Another year later, he made his way up to the top in becoming a Chef himself in the same restaurant. Still regretting every day and seeing his wife everywhere he goes.
~Since Sam had experienced being around cannibals, he swore never to eat meat except fish. It made him sick to his stomach.
~He also learned that he needed to use his head more. After being brainwash by the Government, life was certainly a breath of fresh air to him. He had to think on his own, making sure that he would never let anything manipulate his mind again.
~After fighting and using guns, he hates to fight. The only time he'd fight someone is if he ever saw a woman being mistreated. No woman should be beaten after what he has gone through.
~Aside from the last reason, he has post-traumatic depression. Seeing his wife killed, seeing the faces of everyone else he killed, really messed him up on the inside.
~Sam fears of being around others, thinking that something from his past would either come back or hold him back. He's very paranoid.
~Since Sam loved Hye-Mi, he became very protective of both children and women. He'd be a father figure for being protective and also kind. Even though he's depressed and messed up on the inside and doesn't show his kindness as much, he still would be nurturing.
~Really feels uncomfortable being in alleyways, tight spaces, etc alone. He'd rather be in a more populated area.
~Samuel had bought a tattoo in America, putting his wife's name on the inside of his fore-arm in Hangul.
~He prefers being distracted so he can forget his sadness. He likes to be around others and seeing them happy.
~If Samuel didn't consider himself upset, he would want to raise his own child. However, he can't bring himself to have a child with another woman.
~Samuel hates being called his Korean name. He thinks it's the name of a traitor that is evil.
~Even though he doesn't consider himself a smoker, he smokes once in a blue moon, to relieve a little stress on the inside.
~Every year, he makes a funeral ceremony in his house for his wife.

Samuel is supposed to be known as what he is now. When/If he is used, his story will develop more. I'd rather keep his character into making his life have multiple possibilities instead of him looping over again.
I've already posted him but I'm deleting that thread so I can just post my characters all in the same thread. Feel free to criticize. The only thing I would do when reading your criticism is to either clear what is unclear to you or thank you for the criticism.
Samuel is available to be used in a role-play.
