== History ==
Prior to his death, Sunjun worked with other scholars to develop and activate the father machine. His soul was kept in reserve by the machine upon its activation, for the purpose of its self-defense, though he was still turned into a [[nightmare]]. When Yumi's mind became resistant to the machine's tampering, Sunjun was one of the four scholars sent to [[Gongsha Town]] to investigate, under the leadership of [[Gyundok]].{{book ref|yumi|40}} 

When they arrived on Gongsha, Gyundok announced they had heard of the residents' troubles and explained that they had come with a machine to summon the [[hijo]]. Their prototype machine did not work upon arrival on Gonghsa. [[Sunjun]] determined that the issue was related to the power supply, which Gyundok was hesitant to believe at first. After accepting Sunjun's analysis, Gyundok ordered Sunjun and [[Honam]] to prime the machine, before the [[fourth Torish scholar]] offered.{{book ref|yumi|23}}

[[Nikaro]] was eventually able to summon a spirit, though the scholars' machine claimed it. As Painter watched the spirit be pulled away, Gyundok watched Nikaro and Yumi with concern, with their detection device in hand.

When [[Nikaro]] and Yumi approached the scholars to destroy the prototype machine, they first encountered Gyundok. He called for Sunjun to activate their severing device, and as the other scholars worked he spoke amusedly with Nikaro about the [[painter]]'s understanding of what was happening.{{book ref|yumi|34}}

After Yumi and Nikaro were separated, Gyundok worked with the remaining scholars to resolve the issues in Gongsha Town and contain Yumi.{{book ref|yumi|37}} He explained to Yumi why her destruction of the prototype machine was pointless, and when Yumi escaped, he chased her with the others to [[Torio City]], where Yumi's dominating will forced him to stand down.{{book ref|yumi|38}}{{book ref|yumi|40}}
