He also has a big detachable white fur piece that he usually attaches to the back of his mask, which covers his short blue hair. Without the mask, he has beautiful golden dragon eyes, the source of his dragon ability, that are highlighted by red facial markings, both of which come from being the Seiryuu.
He also has particularly pale skin, even compared to Yona, likely due to his living the majority of his life in a cave. He wears a black robe with white fur trimming over a blue turtleneck shirt along with two decorative necklaces. He also wears fingerless black gloves and carries his sword across his back.
He is also very unique. Growing up in complete isolation, he has almost no social skills whatsoever. He is very quiet and hardly ever speaks, usually replying to questions with nods and gestures, or just blank, awkward stares.
Because of this, he is often misunderstood by other people, thinking he is suspicious and even frightening. However, he has an extremely kind and caring personality, even towards those in his village who hate and fear him. He deeply cares for Yona and the rest of the group, and has a unique bond with a squirrel that he named Ao. He also absolutely hates the cold, often using his fur head-piece to keep himself warm.
Shin-Ah fears his own dragon powers and refuses to use them, calling himself "cursed" and a monster. He is afraid of the destruction they could cause and the people that could be hurt, including himself.
Because of this he constantly keeps his mask on in order to prevent people from looking into his eyes and being affected by his "curse". Despite this, it is suggested that the girls in Chapter 65 of the manga saw his eyes, as one of the girls asked her friend if she had "seen the eyes of the man in the mask? She went on to say that 'It's so beautiful, it sucks you in. Shin-Ah can also be very protective over Yona and his fellow warriors. During the Water Tribe Nadai crisis, Yona is assaulted by a nadai addict when being used as bait.
That night, he goes to a meadow field and basks under the moonlight. He gladly accepts his new name and promises that he will cherish it forever. Arriving at Awa, everyone except Hak stays near the port town to avoid being noticed by the officers as they all attract attention. Shin-Ah and Kija can feel the presence of Ryokuryuu, but is unable to pinpoint his exact location as he is jumping around a lot, though they eventually detect him in the direction of the sea. The next day, the two of them spots a pirate ship where they feel Ryokuryuu again, but the presence quickly disappears.
Kija and the others decide to go to Awa and he is asked to hold down the fort. Gi-Gan becomes curious about him and takes off his mask, which makes him immediately cover his eyes in reflex. He is still forced to show his face until Yoon pleads the pirate captain to stop. Gi-Gan then tells them that she will not let them join her crew unless they prove themselves to be useful and thus, she makes her men to gauge their abilities.
Shin-Ah, Hak and Kija passes the test effortlessly, however, it took Yoon and Yona some time until they can join the pirates. That night, he sees seven ships docking at the port and informs the captain, Yona and Jae-Ha about it. After a few days pass by, Jae-Ha gets information about how Yang Kum-Ji abducts people and they hold a meeting. She suggests to everyone that she will launch a firework and Shin-Ah can help them by telling the exact location where it is launched.
The following evening, they wait for the ships to embark before carrying out the plan. Minutes before the battle begins, Shin-Ah notices how Jae-Ha has bags under his eyes, which then leads for Kija and Hak to observe his face forcefully. Defeated, Jae-Ha admits how he is worried about Yona and he also shows concern towards Yoon. Kija and Hak tell him that Yoon will be alright, to which Shin-Ah agrees to as well. When the enemy finally moves, they infiltrate their ships and in due time, Shin-Ah sees the signal, and he and Jae-Ha goes to where it was fired.
Just as they arrive to the ship, they stop the mercenaries trying to kill Yona. They soon leave Awa after saying goodbye to everyone and as they walk away, Yona regrets that she is unable to say goodbye to Jae-Ha. From then on, Jae-Ha becomes their ally. Jae-Ha gets his hands on the potion and he attempts to use it to Yona, but instead, he accidentally throws some to Shin-Ah, making him charmed towards him.
Shin-Ah spent all his day following Jae-Ha until the effects wore off. After a day when Zeno joins them, Shin-Ah is suddenly dragged into a game initiated by him that involves making each other warm. As he despises the cold, Shin-Ah plays with him and shortly, Kija also joins their game. The next day, they follow Yoon at Katan and help him in distributing the rations he has brought.
During this time, government officials show up to collect taxes from the village and Yoon hurries them to hide. As they protect the Fire Tribe villages, they disperse in different areas, and Shin-Ah is left with Yona. While they are on the lookout, Yona, who still doesn't want to give up on learning swordsmanship, tries to steal his sword, which makes him to run away from her.
Yona gives up and just asks him if she can watch him practice, to which he agrees to. He remains silent at first, but then tells her that his instructor told him that he shouldn't use his dragon powers because of its effects.
Yona wonders what kind of power he has, and from that, he started remembering all the bad things that happened during his childhood. As he trembles, Yona hugs him and apologizes for bringing up the topic. She then tries to lift his mask away, but he goes away from her to prevent her from seeing his eyes. Yona tells him that she just wants to look at his eyes while talking to him and she looks forward to a day where she can see him smile.
Their talk abruptly ends when a kid comes up to Yona to request some food. Shin-Ah thinks of what Yona said about smiling and he tries to create one, though a little forcefully. Because of his preoccupation of this thought, he doesn't notice the two kids that approach him, who then steal his sword away. Mad, he rushes to her while beating up some other bandits along the way. However, as he is unarmed and outnumbered, he loses to them and is stabbed in the right side of his stomach.
As he watches Yona being taken away while crying out for his safety, he uses his dragon powers. In an instant, his opponents fall to his gaze and are under a hallucination. Unbeknownst to him, Yona is already talking to him and tries to stop him from further using his ability, but as she continues on doing so, he also envelops her with his power.
Despite that, Yona still tries to bring him back to his senses and when he finally hears her call his name, he snaps out from his power and is soon paralyzed.
Yona tries to help him, but he tells her to go away as he is a monster, which makes him depreciate his self as he fears that Yona will hate him. However, she still stays and tells him that he is a human who simply wants to control his power.
She suggests that he should accept everything about his power and then encourages him to get stronger with her. Shin-Ah is glad that Yona didn't push him away and swears to himself that as long as Yona calls for him, he will follow her until he can be proud of the name she bestowed on him. Later , he is treated by Yoon and cheered by Kija and Zeno to get back to health when they return from another village.
A few days later, he notices that the sky lit up through the tent during one night and goes outside, only to find soldiers heading to their way which alerts Yona. Akatsuki no Yona add Main. Shin-Ah's dragon eyes are also capable of disrupting the nerves of anyone he glares at until it kills them. Kobayashi, Sanae Japanese.
