Dr. Yi Suchong is a major antagonist in the video game series BioShock. Self-absorbed to the point of usually referring to himself in the third person, Suchong was a cold, cruel and arrogant scientist who used every single tragic event around him for his own ends, most notably creating the Big Daddies and experimenting on the Little Sisters. He also played an integral part in manufacturing plasmids for Fontaine Futuristics and Ryan Industries, and helped Frank Fontaine in his plot to take over Rapture by mentally conditioning Jack, Fontaine's "Ace in the Hole" and Andrew Ryan's son.
He was voiced by James Yaegashi, who also voiced Wu Zi Mu in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Biography[]
Background[]
Suchong was born sometime in Korea, on December 16, with the year being unknown. When World War II occurred, Suchong used the war to his own benefit to stop being a house servant by selling opium and using the money he earned to fund his experiments. When this was found out, Suchong fled to Rapture to escape punishment, down there he would continue his experiments.
Rapture[]
Reaching Rapture, Suchong set up his own laboratory firm with Andrew Ryan and Augustus Sinclair funding it, but soon became dissatisfied with Ryan's inconsistency with the money and started to work for Frank Fontaine's Futuristics. At the company, Suchong worked on creating and improving his technology, and partnered with Dr. Brigid Tenenbaum on the Little Sisters. While Tenebaum worked on having the children process ADAM, Suchong worked on their mental conditioning to have them desire to obtain ADAM from corpses. Despite hating the Little Sisters, they would refer to him as "Papa" Suchong, as they came to see him as a father figure of sorts.
Seeing the potential of the Little Sisters, Suchong was later tasked to create the Big Daddies to act as guardians against those who attempted to kill the girls. Around this time, Suchong worked with Tenebaum on Fontaine's "Ace in the Hole" project, which was Ryan's son from Jasmine Jolene used to act as his weapon against Rapture's ruler. The child was named Jack, and the doctor placed mental triggers to act as a command phrase, with "Wound You Kindly" giving the user control over him, and "Code Yellow" in case Jack broke from his programming. However, Fontaine asked Suchong to make an antidote in case Jack would be controlled by somebody else.
Following Fontaine faking his death in 1958, Suchong was forced to return to Ryan when he was threatened by the businessman, and continued to work on plasmids, the Little Sisters and Big Daddies. Around the same time, Suchong encountered tears opening in the city, and ordered others to take pictures of what was within them. He soon discovered Jeremiah Fink stealing his ideas, but agreed to act as his collaborator on their technologies. Seeing that Fink created Vigors that were drinkable, Suchong stole the idea and made Plasmids drinkable as well. However, Fink later broke his partnership with the doctor, and refused to give Suchong the locks of Elizabeth hair to make the Big Daddies imprint.
While continuing his search to make Big Daddies imprint, he was killed by one himself after he struck a Little Sister, being impaled by a bouncer's drill. Despite his death, Suchong's legacy would live on as he was the creator of the Big Daddies, and was the one who made Jack obedient with "Would You Kindly". Fontaine would later smuggle Jack of the city to land to await him to grow into adulthood, and have him return so he could kill Ryan.
BioShock[]
Though dead by the events of BioShock, Suchong's creations are littered across Rapture, and Jack comes across the doctor's corpse at his clinic when looking for the antidote.
Burial at Sea[]
In episode one of Burial at Sea, Suchong doesn't physically appear, but there audio diaries around Rapture during Booker and Elizabeth's quest to find Sally.
Dr. Suchong makes his appearance in the second episode, being alerted to Elizabeth's presence when she attempts to leave his make-shift lab in the Silver Fin restaurant. Believing that she has vandalized the Leutece device, Suchong intends to eliminate Elizabeth until she reveals her intention to repair it. The doctor agrees to let her go so she can find the parts needed, but later forces her to find the locks of hair from Fink's lab in exchange she can return through the tear. However, Ryan soon intervenes following the exchange, and implies that Suchong never informed him of his deal with Elizabeth.
Two weeks later after Atlas and his men returned to Rapture, Dr. Suchong continues to his attempts to make the Big Daddies imprint on the Little Sisters. While in his clinic giving another speech on his audio diary, he is annoyed by two Little Sisters trying to get his attention. Unbeknownst to him, Elizabeth arrived to his clinic to retrieve the "Ace in the Hole's" encoded message, and helped the Little Sisters bond with an injured Big Daddy. After slapping one of the Little Sisters away in frustration, Suchong is immediately attacked by the Big Daddy, whom impale the doctor with a drill before comforting the girls.
