He could switch from kind and helpful to murderous in a second. Oh Shin was not as collected in battle as Oh Jamu, in the middle of the clash with Yongbi, he was frozen from shock due to Oh Dae-Yu's death until Oh Jamu made him snap out of it.

History[]
Five years before the events of Yongbi the Invincible, Oh Shin and his brothers dueled and killed Ma Hwe-Mo, the chief of the Blue Sea Gang and one of the 'Triumvirates of the southern seas'. This caused a great shock to the entire murim and caused them to reconsider duelists in general as duelists operated with an unspoken rule that they should avoid challenging any of the ten grandmasters of the gangho or anyone from a well-established and righteous faction that is full of accomplished warriors. At the time, chief Ma Hwe-Mo was someone who fit the bill on both accounts.[1]
Oh shin later took an oath to never return to the Middle Kingdom ever again and became an apothecary alongside his brothers.[2]
Plot[]
Yongbi the Invincible[]
Volume 1[]
As Yongbi sat around in a forest with Biryong struggling to deal with his constipation nearby. Oh Shin and his brothers, Oh Jamu and Oh Dae-Yu, stumbled upon them. At that, Oh Jamu gave Yongbi some medicinal herbs and the three brothers left. However, when Yongbi inspected the item that gave Biryong constipation, he finally recognized it as the golden medallion and excitedly exclaimed so, catching their attention. He and his brothers then approached Yongbi and after confirming that the medallion was indeed the golden medallion, they drew their weapons and prepared to attack.
Oh Shin and his brothers then unleashed a flurry of attacks at Yongbi but the bounty hunter evaded all of it. After a short chat, Oh Jamu was momentarily distracted by a wasp hive Yongbi kicked into the air earlier and the latter used the opportunity to escape. Despite this, the brothers easily caught up to Biryong and Yongbi, and once again launched an attack but this time, they managed to injure Yongbi. The furious bounty hunter clashed with the trio, and killed them one by one. Oh Dae-Yu was the first to perish, and then Oh Shin, with Oh Jamu being the last to fall. Biryong then disposed of their corpses by throwing them off a cliff.
Powers and Abilities[]
Oh Shin was an expert chain scythe user who was capable of dispatching a man from 50-jang away.[1] Furthermore, he was able to maneuver it in any direction and used it to create a tripwire during his clash with Yongbi. He also possessed immense physical speed being able to outrun a galloping horse.[3] Oh Shin was most deadly when fighting alongside his brothers and the trio's combined attacks were enough to pressure a gosu of Yongbi's caliber for a short time.
