“A hero...is only a hero when he's on our side. If he's our enemy, he's a demon”
― Han Gun-Ho[source]
Pyo Gun-Ho is a former Lucid Adventure player,[10] and a current player in Earth Game.[2] Pyo Gun-Ho grew up in an orphanage alongside Han Gun-Ho. They not only had the same name, but they had similar physiques and fighting skills. Both Pyo Gun-Ho and Han Gun-Ho became infamously as the "Double Guns" of the Chinese Herring Faction in Busan's underworld. An internal fight within the gang led to a purge. Thanks to Han Gun-Ho's sacrifice, Pyo Gun-Ho escaped with is life. Before Han Gun-Ho passed, he left Pyo Gun-Ho a letter and a strand of his hair as DNA evidence, telling Pyo Gun-Ho to find the Han Family and live his life as Han Gun-Ho.[10]
Following Han Gun-Ho's request, Pyo Gun-Ho assumed the identity of "Han Gun-Ho", and masqueraded as the eldest son of Han Sung-Gong, the Giga Group chairman. Han Sung-Gong was unwilling to see his son's face, but was also eager for him to act according to a fabricated past. After spending a month changing his appearance, his accent and turning himself into a different person, Han Gun-Ho was finally allowed to meet Han Sung-Gong. On his first meeting with Han Sung-Gong only cared about using Han Gun-Ho for his own means. It was on this day that Pyo Gun-Ho decided that he would destroy Giga.[10]
As Han Gun-Ho carried out the tasks given to him by Han Sung-Gong which included murder, he gathered evidence of stock price manipulation, fraud and contract killing to use against Giga, but it was all to no avail as Han Sung-Gong had too much power and high level political connections. Han Gun-Ho bided his time and waited for the right moment. In Lucid Adventure, his user Id was "Han Gun-Ho'. He thought it was just an ordinary game till he met Zero, who offered him a deal in order to fulfil his dream of taking down Giga. Zero granted Han Gun-Ho a personal trait that suited his karma. From then on, Han Gun-Ho offered karma to Zero of the dead that remained in the game and sometimes even killed people to offer their karma to Zero.[11] He slowly built up his power over years and hid behind the shadows.
In the early days of Lucid Adventure, Sad Smile refused to be under Giga and was swiftly defeated by Han Gun-Ho. To prevent his character from being deleted from the game, the dying Sad Smile made a contract with Han Gun-Ho, which resulted in him becoming Giga's underling.[12] At some point, he became the "Leader of the Giga Guild Security Team".[7] During the event that would later become known as the Zara Guild Nightmare Incident, Han Gun-Ho, aided by Sad Smile, framed Zara Guild for using Nightmare, which led to Armes being captured and banned from the game, and the Zara Guild disbanding.[13][14][15]
Years later, Han Sung-Gong became the "Leader of Giga's Special Investigation Department".[8] During Giga's attempt to capture Creator God Han-Gun-Jae in Yopy Land, Han Gun-Ho and his team tried to capture Han Gun-Jae, but they were all soundly defeated.[8] He was a spectartor duirng ti,[16]
Han Gun-Ho is a Giga Game Director. He is the first son of Giga's chairman and former Giga Emperor, Han Sung-Gong. He is the the older brother of Han Soo-Ah and Han Gun-Soo. At some point in the past, Han Gun-Ho secretly joined sides with Nightmare where he serves as Queen No Name's strategist and advisor. He is often referred to as "The Crow" when he is in his Nightmare appendage.[5][6]
Four years ago, he was Giga Guild's Security Team Leader.[17] With the aid of Sad Smile, he framed Zara Guild for using Nightmare and captured Armes, which eventually led to Zara Guild's dissolution.
Two years ago, he was the Team Leader of Giga's 13th Team. He led them on an assault against Han Gun-Jae, but they were all defeated by the Creator God.
Secretly, Han Gun-Ho was working with Nightmare and was acted as The Crow, manipulating Giga and playing both sides of the war. He revealed his true identity during his attempted coup d'état against the Giga Empire.
In the reset timeline, Pyo Gun-Ho and Han Gun-Ho are still active together as gange members. Before the gamification of Earth, both Pyo Gun-Ho and Han Gun-Ho were the top brass of Busan and had almost conquered the city. After the God's Toy collided with eartyh, Pyo Gun-Ho became his Lucid Adventure character and his memmories from the past returned. He sacrificed all his stats and skills to save Han Gun-Ho from the time paradox. After, sacrificing his stats and skills, he disbanded his organisation and formed the Heaven Guild.[18] Pyo Gun-Ho took on the name of 'Sieg',[1] and became the 'Master of Heaven Guild'.[2]

Translation Notes
- Main Article: Hardcore Leveling Warrior WEBTOON Translation Changes
Real Name
The character's name '한건호' literally translates to 'Han Gun-Ho'. For some unknown reason, LINE Webtoon has changed the character's name to 'Nathan Han'. This wiki uses the original translation which the author of the series intended.
Aliases
Hardcore Leveling Warrior called him "눈깔" which literally translates to "eyeball". LINE translates this as "Cyclops". Cyclops can be written in Korean as "애꾸눈" and "물벼룩". Cyclops have one eyes so LINE just changed the literal meaning.

Notes & Trivia
Han Gun-Ho
- The character's real name and game character were revealed in Episode 53 in a flashback arc. His first appearance in the current timeline was in Episode 103. His first real life appearance was in Season 2 Episode 19 in a flashback arc.
- Some fans theorize that Han Gun-Ho's personal attribute is Frankenstein due to the monsters that he presented during Season 2 Episode 22.
The Crow
- The Crow has never been actually named until Season 2 Episode 74 where Ge Des called him as Crow. His official name has never been revealed so far.
- Some fans have compared the Mysterious Nightmare to characters such as 'White Zetsu' due to his overall appearance and the type that plans something in secret, and to 'Itachi' due to his overall use of crows.
- Some Naver Webtoon fans believed that The Crow was Sik, the former Demon King. It was confirmed in Season 2 Episode 78 that Sik is dead so this is not him.
- Some have assumed that this is the same Nightmare that appeared by Zero's side in Season 1. The unnamed Nightmare appeared in Episode 73 chasing No Name, the one that tested Zero's Unnamed Master Blacksmith's Weapon in Episode 90 and appeared by Team Open Your Mouth, Here Comes the Healing in Episode 115 and Episode 116. This is completely unconfirmed and may be a simple Nightmare as we could see multiple Nightmares that looked the same in Episode 142. Until there is an actual confirmation in the webtoon, they will be treated as separate characters.
