History
One raid put Sukmin in the field beside Hwang Dongsuk and the wider crew. The squad cornered both Yoo Jinho and Sung Jinwoo, then forced the dungeon's boss encounter to erupt before its scheduled time. The instant the Giant Arachnid Buryura rose, the Lizards turned tail and left the pair stranded to fight it alone. On their way out they buried the route, collapsing stone to seal the exit so neither man could follow. Jinwoo nonetheless brought the boss down unaided, which drew the Lizards back to dispatch him. Right then the System handed Jinwoo an order: purge each rogue Hunter present. Having signed onto Dongsuk's treachery, Sukmin fell with the others when Jinwoo carried that order out.
