Summarized Backstory:
WORK IN PROGRESS. Rewriting his backstory right now so this will be updated as I get more stuff rewritten and detailed out. - Sharktism 1/16/26
Koi Sang-eo Mulgogi. Born in South Korea to a remarkable young woman, Ahnjong Sang-eo. Originally, Ahnjong Hyeong. She was married to Seungjae Hyeong. Seungjae was a busy and wealthy man, always working. Despite his well-known wealth, no one truly knew what he did. Even his own wife. The man would disappear for hours within the night, never failing to return 4-5 days later, sometimes weeks, ending on months. Ahnjong and Seungjae had their first children together; Tae and Jiyan, simply a year apart. Ahnjong was forced to be a stay at home mom due to Seungjae’s intensive work schedule. However, she had opened up her own salon, right in the middle of their home. After Tae and Jiyan, Koi was born. Otherwise being named after his father, Seungjae. Ahnjong had prayed every night for a beautiful baby girl, and she had gotten her wish. Regardless, Koi was not born in the right body, but that never failed to shame the boy away from who he truly was. Koi was spending the majority of the time glued to his mothers hip, Tae and Jiyan had already started school. This often left Ahnjong and Koi alone at the house, awarding her time to leave an everlasting impact on her son’s life.
Often Koi would assist his mother in anything she did, whether it was straightening up or aiding around the salon. Meanwhile Seungjae was nowhere to be found, shortly after Koi’s 12th birthday he had left. There being no traces of him, Koi was left with resentment, leading to his developed trust issues later on in life. But Ahjnong was already pregnant with Seungjae’s 4th child, Daeyang. Due to Seungjae’s departure it had left Koi with more open room to come out to his mother. Ahjnong was more than supportive. Despite the overwhelming decisions Ahjnong had begun to face in life due to her husband leaving, her children made it worth going through.
As Koi began Junior High School he had taken an interest in various sports. One of those being, the swim team. The boy was already excelling in school, he was decently popular and had found his way around life seemingly well. Once he joined the swim team Koi’s primary focus was staying busy. This was something the boy had developed from his father. There would be many times Koi would come home exhausted from workouts and competitions. The boy was an excellent swimmer and even better runner, he was quick on his feet and even faster in the water. Koi triumphed; He formed into an excellent swimmer, his way of swimming was elegant and new. By the age of 13 he had already won various trophies and completed many races. At 14 he was made swim team captain of his team. His skills were immaculate; inspiring many his age, older, and younger. And that's when his truest name was given to him, Koi, Koi Mulgogi. It stands, simply, for Koi Fish.
As said, Koi had managed to make Captain due to his outstanding performances and dedication he put towards the team. The boy had everything he wanted, he was well-known across his small town. Unfortunately, that had to come to an end; just a few months after such an award, his life had taken a drastic turn as he had gotten in a horrific accident that scarred him both mentally and physically.
Koi was forced to step down as Captain for the time being as he recovered. During this recovery time he had to amount to many therapy sessions, he had seen every doctor in the business to heal his mind, body, and soul. He had developed severe PTSD from the accident which would lead to nightly episodes, affecting his sleep. Due to this Koi had ultimately stopped getting as much rest as he should have been; before the boy was even cleared to go back to school he never stopped slowing down, he’d drive himself to the brink of his own despair, forcing himself to work until he was whole again. This had a huge backlash on his stability and the damage that had begun in his right leg significantly increased. He was able to keep his overuse a secret for quite some time before inevitably it was catching up to him. Ahnjong had found out and pulled him out of the swim team entirely, much to Koi’s dismay.

Legend says that long ago, there was an abundance of golden koi fish in the Yellow River in China. They made their way upstream, going against the current, building strength and perseverance. Their golden hue made the river shimmer as if it was a river of gold.RE-WRITING THIS TOOOOO

Halfway upstream, they came to a large waterfall, an impossible height that is too high to traverse. This waterfall is known as the “Dragon’s Gate” in Hunan province. Most of the koi turned back, going with the current to safer ground. However, some koi stayed and attempted to jump and surpass the waterfall. Some of them got halfway, but then pummeled back downstream after they’ve lost momentum and energy.
The spirits of the river watched the koi try over and over again, making fun of them as they found it amusing.
This went on for one hundred years, the group of koi continued to try and swim up the waterfall but always stopped at exactly that waterfall. At each attempt the koi made it slightly further, gaining technique and strength as they practiced that waterfall.
The spirits continued to make fun of the koi, knowing that it’s such an impossible feat to make it past the waterfall.
One koi tried a different strategy. It went down to the bottom of the river, built up as much speed as it could, and leaped out of the water. It swam as hard as it could up the walls. Somehow, it reached the top of the waterfall, and continued to swim upstream.
The spirits were silenced watching that scene - how the koi succeeded in the impossible. Knowing the multiple attempts that the koi have tried over the years,
The spirits transformed the koi into a golden dragon as a reward for its achievement. In the Chinese culture, a golden dragon is the ultimate symbol of power and strength. That is also how the waterfall is known to be Dragon’s Gate - through this popular fable.
In Japanese culture and myth, the koi fish is associated with a few different myths and legends. The most notable is its association with Samurai Warriors. Samurai Warriors are known for their loyalty, strength and bravery. The koi’s migration upstream in rivers through waterfalls is not an easy one, as they swim with such strength and ferocity that they are compared to samurais.
Interestingly as well, when a koi fish is caught, it does not wriggle and bounce about, instead it stoically stays still. Even as a fisherman’s knife descends on them, the koi stays still - accepting its fate just like how a samurai would in honor.
