Established in the Fall of 1994, Project Sick was initiated under the direction of Lee Sooman as a means of recruiting, training, and implementing young agents into the dark corners of South Korea's tiny world of crime and corruption with hopes of one day incorporating them into the bigger world of international affairs. Though the name of the NIS did not hold the same regard as other agencies such as America's CIA or the United Kingdom's MI6, the South Korean agency did hope that SICK would help bring some accolade to their modest organization within the world of espionage.

For years the NIS only accepted applicants from the highest of the class: those with the highest marks, best abilities of athleticism, and (sometimes) the biggest wallets. For Project Sick, this was not necessarily the case.

Recruited from all corners of South Korea, from Busan to Sokcho, the NIS collected delinquients with untapped creativity to bright minds with no sense of direction for their own futures to pretty bodies ready to be molded into anything the NIS could dream of. Where the agency was once used to working with young adults graduating from university to adults in their mid thirties and forties, and the lone exception of a couple fifty-somethings, SICK brought in faces as young as 13 (such as a promising child by the name of Kwon Boa) to do the job two or more times better than an average NIS agent could do. 

And not surprsingly, the project was intially a success.

These young and vulnerable bodies were everything the NIS could ever wish for in terms of housing the best spies: once soft in the wrong places became sharp edges that could cut through anything, rigid and stiff movements became agile and lilthe calculations that edged at perfection but only missed the mark by a little to show some humility, and what was bliss called innocence became acknowledgement of corrpution and sin found around every dark (and bright) corner sought after.

After a long and tretcherous inaugeration of the first generation— with all of the trial and error they had to endure to instigate improvement with development— and a second generation, whom proved to be only an adequate enhancement from the first generation with a more refined system with ferocious attitudes and ruthless mindsets, it was only with time that the NIS would introduce a third generation of SICK with aspirations to brand this new group to a bigger audience beyond their aware enemies that lie beneath the pubilc eye and across country borders.
