Background

Min was once a little boy living in the apartment building. During a game of hide and seek with his mom, he showed the first sign of monsterization, a nosebleed. He transformed after seeing his mother get brutally killed by the Blind Monster. Rightfully traumatized by this event, his desire to not be found by any monster turned him into the Slime Monster

Plot

Hyun went to save the children, but he saw the monster dripping through the ceiling in their apartment. Later, when Hyun arrived, the monster has fully materialized. It got shocked that Hyun could see it and attempted to drown him. However, it noticed a crack in the ceiling and used it to flee instead.

After the criminals took over the apartment and executed someone, the Slime Monster used her corpse as a disguise. However, as everyone else knew she died and was killed before totally monsterfying, the disguise failed. It exited the body and clings to the ceiling. Hyun managed to reason with it, but Joon Shin ordered his men to incinerate it like every other monster they'd encountered.

Appearance

Min was a young boy with short hair.

The Slime Monster takes the appearance of a translucent, anthropomorphic liquid with two human eyeballs floating where the head is.

Abilities

As the monster is mostly liquid in nature, it can slip through wherever liquids can reach. Unlike monsters, the Slime Monster is cowardly and prefers to runaway if it is spotted. If it is forced to fight, it will try to drown its target. It also can enter a corpse and use it like a puppet or costume.

Additionally, it appears capable of reason. Hyun Cha was able to make it realize some of its actions backfired on its desire not to be seen.
