Yu-jin :

main character

young man

good son, student, and employee.

killer

killed his mother without remorse.

dangerous to himself and others.

a reminder that even the most seemingly normal people are capable of great evil.

we don't know for sure why Yu-jin killed his mother.

textual evidences to support answer:

"He had never killed anyone before, but it was surprisingly easy. He felt no remorse, no guilt, no fear. He just felt relieved."

"He was a good son. He had always been a good son. He had never done anything wrong, never caused any trouble. He was the perfect son, the perfect student, the perfect employee. He was the good son."

"He was a monster. He was a killer. He was a sociopath. He was a danger to himself and to others. He was a monster."
