Background
Korn is Chianti's partner, and also a skilled assassin. He wears thick glasses and a hat.
Personality
Even if he is less impatient than Chianti, Korn enjoys killing, and is disappointed when he does not get the opportunity to.[1] Like most members of the organization, he has a cold personality. However, unlike the other members, he appears to be asocial, rarely interacting with other members unless spoken to. He is always seen frowning, and has no sense of humor. His speech is short and full of pauses, leading some fans to speculate that he may have some sort of speech impediment or is a foreigner with weak Japanese.
Plot overview
Black Impact
Korn appears for the first time at a shooting stand belonging to the Black Organization, training for the planned murder of Yasutero Domon. Later, he is present when Gin discusses the time and place of this murder with Kir. Even if he is supposed to participate in the two attempted assassinations (against Yasutero Domon and Kogoro Mouri), and is, each time, seen waiting for Gin's order to shoot, he never gets the opportunity to fire.
The Shadow of the Black Organization
Korn is seen in Chianti's car. He tells her he thinks Kir is dead.

Relationships analysis
Black Organization
Chianti
Chianti is Korn's partner. They seem to get along well enough; Chianti confides to Korn that she would like to kill Vermouth because she led Calvados to his death. They are not dating.[2] However, the animation team added an extra scene in Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small where Korn blushes when Chianti asks him if he wants to ride the ferris wheel, which in Japan is considered a romantic activity for couples.
Vermouth
Korn, like Chianti, resents Vermouth, believing she caused the death of Calvados. He wishes to kill Vermouth.
