Soo-won (スウォン Suwon)
He is Yona's cousin as well as her first love; a pretty boy with golden hair. In his first appearance, he was kind, cheerful, and somewhat a klutz. When around others, Soo-Won maintains his outward personality purposely making himself look clumsy to hide his true intelligence. After Yona's mother died, Soo-won was the one who encouraged Yona and promised to be by her side in her mother's place. He was also Hak's best friend. Soo-won's father was killed by Yona's father, King Il (although publicly he supposedly died due to an accident). This leads Soo-Won to conspire with the Fire Tribe, kill Yona's father, and take over the throne. With King Il dead and Yona missing with Hak, Soo-won is crowned the new king. Even though he hates King Il and declared he will dispose of anyone who gets in his way, Soo-Won genuinely cares for both Yona and Hak. He hides the fact that Yona is still alive from his followers with the fire tribe spreading rumors that Hak murdered King Il and kidnapped Yona.
