Appearance

Personality

A very twisted person. Kim Tae Soo views everyone including his nephew as tools and pawns to use to further his own plans.

Background

Kim Tae Soo and his older twin brother were orphaned at five years old and raised in an abusive orphanage. When they were young they swore that they'd make it to the top of the world to spite the ones who hurt them.

After finally getting close to their Dream at 22, Kim Tae Soo's brother fell in love with a "gold digger" in his own words and decided to throw everything away to run away with his sweetheart. Leaving Kim Tae Soo to deal with their crumbling Empire and a pile of debt. This led to Kim Tae Soo developing an alcohol and gambling addiction.

It is noted that of the twins, Kim Tae Soo was the immoral one that was only kept in touch by his older twin. After being abandoned by his brother, Kim Tae Soo descended into the darker places of the country trying to rebuild his Empire and take revenge on his twin and his lover.

It is noted ironically that at Kim Rok Soo's birth Kim Tae Soo received a letter from his brother, which brought about a plan for Kim Tae Soo which he never got to go through with as his brother died shortly after.

Kim Tae Soo had plans to bury his twin and Sister-in-law in humiliation when he carved his way back to the top by himself however those plans never came to be due to his brother's sudden death.

Kim Rok Soo
This pair of uncle and nephew have a very complicated love-hate relationship. Kim Tae Soo was always very clear about how he viewed his nephew as a pawn and a way to get revenge on his twin brother.

Kim Tae Soo despite himself does care about his nephew and sees him as family after being a pawn.
