Sadly, his appearance only lasts for two episodes after he was killed by one of the zombies at the clinic near Dongnae after he successfully tracked the Crown Prince and engaged in a short sword fight. He was infected by the zombie who overtook one of his guards, who in turn infects Beom-il, and eventually is killed by the Crown Prince.
