Ahjin Guild

Based in Seoul, the Ahjin Guild ranks as the most powerful guild in Korea. It breaks sharply from the model of leading guilds abroad, which boast large rosters, by keeping only three formal members, just one of whom holds the S-Rank. The apparent weakness vanishes once Jinwoo's shadow soldiers are counted, as that hidden force lifts the guild above all others on the planet in strength and in sheer numbers. The guild's name carries personal meaning: it reverses the first name of Jinwoo's sister, Sung Jinah, who proposed it when he first established the organization. In Korean, the syllables Ah and Jin together suggest the idea of pressing forward.

The guild functions as Jinwoo's own banner, a Korean outfit whose true might rests not in conventional manpower but in his army of shadows. Where peer guilds in other nations rely on assembling many ranked Hunters, Ahjin leans on a tiny human core backed by an effectively limitless supply of shadow troops, which together let it eclipse every competing guild in existence.

Sung Jinwoo serves as Guild Master, an S-Rank Mage and the source of the shadow army. Yoo Jinho holds the post of Vice-Guild Master, a D-Rank Tanker. Yoo Soohyun rounds out the official roster as a Guild Member at A-Rank. All three are alive within the recorded membership.
