-shiu is the oldest of many
-he has insane mommy issues bc she was too busy selling herself for drug money to take care of her children so he was basically raised by his grandma
-his best memories are cooking with her and even though hes very busy in his current adult life he tries to leave time to make at least a couple home cooked meals every week
-said mommy issues keep him coming back to toji but he doesn’t realize this on a conscious level
-his mom was a deadbeat and she was self aware enough to feel extremely guilty abt the situations she puts her kids in but she never feels bad enough to actually make a change
-shiu is the only one out of his siblings who can see curses and he thinks hes insane until he discovers another kid in school who shares the same “gift”
-he moves out the second he turns 18 and joins the police force, quickly climbing the ranks to become a detective. he genuinely wants to help ppl but becomes disenchanted by seeing how corrupt the system is from the inside
-he says fuck it and moves to japan to get involved with the underground jujutsu world and he sends most of his money back to south korea to help his siblings
