==Biography==
In 1725, Yun travelled to the {{Wiki|Manchu}} [[Qing dynasty|Qing Empire]] as an aide to the Joseon envoy. At one point however, he was held captive alongside a number of [[Slavery|slaves]] aboard a [[Piracy|pirate]] [[ship]] in the {{Wiki|South China Sea}} near [[Philippines]]. He and the slaves were rescued when the ship was boarded by the [[British Brotherhood of Assassins|British Assassin]] [[Edward Kenway]]. After the rest of slaves were rescued, Yun  and Edward were the last to jump overboard when the ship exploded due to the gunpowder catching fire.<ref name=EP 26">''[[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple]]'' – Episode 26</ref>

Later on, Yun offered his services to repair the wheel of the [[Dutch East India Company]] ship that Edward had rescued from the pirates earlier. After Edward's ship escorted the Dutch ship back to [[Macau]], Edward offered Yun to work for his [[Zhang Wei Union|new organization]] as an engineer due to his knowledge and abilities, while helping him to find a way back to Joseon. Yun accepted the offer and went off to drink with Edward and his mate [[John Young]] later on.<ref name=EP 26" />
