In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', his backstory is more fleshed out. He has had a great sense of rhythm since he was little and enjoyed dancing to the music. If things continued such, his mother would've sent him to music school. One day he grew tired of being on the beat all the time, as it was too easy for him. In order to find another way to enjoy music, he switched to the offbeat, and uses a metronome to practice. His mother is sad that he can't go to music school because of this, but he likes his life. He also mentions he has a girlfriend and would like to introduce the player the next time they meet, however this has yet to happen.<ref>[[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven Fever)#A Musical Term|미스터 엇박 이야기]] (Mr. Offbeat's Story), ''Rhythm World Wii''</ref> | In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever|Rhythm World Wii]]'', his backstory is more fleshed out.
