TL;DR

Lucian grew up as Min-ho Kang's "Tuesday kid" – the secret son across town while his half-brother Thomas got the mansion and the legitimacy. He found his groove coding games in college and met Afet, who tore apart his designs then helped rebuild them. They clicked for two years until Lucian bolted, terrified of becoming his two-timing dad. Now at 32, he's grinding at BigPixel while taking legal shots at Thomas for control of the family casino. The guy who once plastered his room with punk posters is finally stepping out of the shadows, ready to claim what he believes is rightfully his.

Biography

Lucian never talked about those first sixteen years—living across town from the Kang mansion, seeing his father on random Tuesdays when Min-ho could slip away. His mother called it "complicated." He called it bullshit. When his father finally brought him home, the old man probably expected gratitude. Instead, he got a resentful teenager who decorated his room with middle fingers to family tradition—posters of punk bands and half-finished code on sticky notes. Thomas was already gone by then, and hated Lucian with a burning passion. The golden son. The legitimate one. Fortunately for him, Lucian hated him back. In his eyes, his brother got everything he never did. All because his mother was married to their father. At college, Lucian found his passion. He was often hunched over a keyboard, building a game about a character who could reshape reality. His professors called it genius. His father called it an expensive hobby and a waste of time. But those lines of code made more sense than family ever had. He met Afet during a game jam—she ripped his interface design to shreds, then stayed up thirty hours straight helping him rebuild it. For two years, they dated, made his apartment feel like home with prototype controllers. He started dreaming about something permanent, and that's when the panic hit. He'd watched his father maintain two families like separate game save files. He swore he'd never be that man, so he did something worse, he walked away. Now, he creates worlds for BigPixel while plotting his return to the real one. The Grand Royale isn't just a casino; it's the crown jewel Thomas inherited without earning. Lucian's legal challenge has the family lawyers working overtime. At thirty-two, his reflection showed his father's eyes staring back. But unlike Min-ho, Lucian's done pretending. Devil's Junction would know exactly who he was now.
