Ja-Hyun Jo (조 자현)Height: 5'9" (175 cm)Birthplace: Incheon, South Korea Occupation: Student, Amateur Cyclist Affiliation: Hummingbird Crew Bicycle: NJS Samson (formerly), LOOK 496 Quote: Anyone can try hard to reach a certain goal, but not many people are persistent. If you keep trying at something, eventually you get the results that you want. Jay Jo or Jo Ja-Hyun is the main character in the webtoon series Wind Breaker. He is enrolled in Sunny High School. As the story progresses, he gains a group of friends who all have a passion for biking. As time goes on, he starts to express his opinions better and be more socialized. His debut in the League of Street preliminaries helped him gain popularity in the biking scene in Korea and at his school. Jay is perceived as a solemn person and sometimes mistaken as selfish, arrogant, and stubborn. He didn't have many friends because of his parent's wrong point of view on friendship. As a result, Jay became very introverted, stoic, and studious and often kept to himself. However, as the story progresses, it is shown that he is also quite caring, understanding, and selfless. Despite his emotionless personality, Jay expresses more of his feelings over time, as he spends time and interacts with his friends. Background: Part 1: Part 2: Part 3: Skills and Techniques: Jay is a well-rounded cyclist. Throughout the competition, Jay is acknowledged as the ace of the crew. He can play as a defensive rider, supporting his crew during their races and an offensive rider. One of his lesser-acknowledged skills is his ability to sprint. He is often overshadowed by his crewmate Dom, but Jay has shown to sprint at high speeds during races. Years of practice made Jay seem like an "extension" of his bike. He mastered his control of the mechanics and has unique skills like Stabbing Break, Rock Wall, Fish and Chips, Railing Grinds, Jumps, and the famous Inertia. Jay possesses extraordinary technique with the bike. He shows excellent control maneuvering around sharp turns. Often in races, he would accelerate, rather than slow down, during turns to execute drifts.

However, the official publisher, Naver Webtoon, does not use Hangul writing for his name. This applies to almost every character in the series. Therefore, avoid changing his name to Hangul's writing.
