Ryu is an upbeat guy who always likes to look at the bright side of things, despite the constant stream of misfortune he encounters. Ryu’s initial dream was to become the world’s best fireman, but knowing his luck, he realized it was nearly impossible. He was aware that a fireman wasn’t probably the best career choice for his clumsy self, but he thinks its worth the risk to help ones in need. 

He left his previous job after accidentally tripping and knocking over someone at a crowded idol appearance. It was mistaken for an intentional assault and Ryu was forced to resign. After someone suggested him to become an idol, he eagerly accepted. He hopes to prove to his chief that he could be an amazing idol. Though he’s fully aware of his bad luck and tendency to make many mistakes, he claims to be the best at not giving up. He feels very passionate about safety and protecting others.
