    Character Evaluation

    Park hae il’s first impression is of the cordial appearance of a simple youth . The overall image is far from the "tough guy" or "man" Kong Wu's powerful standards, and closer to the "flowers in the greenhouse". Although he didn't reach the point where the weak and the wind couldn't help, he didn't look strong, and he didn't seem to be full of vitality and energy. His eyes were not very big nor very energetic. When staring ahead, there was a focus in his concentration. He insists on the toughness, and he has always been relatively low-key, not only modest but also polite, and he rarely has the time to be self-centered .
