Ken

One of the homeless who live in the park across the hotel. He is aware that Nakoshi is a pathological liar and believes he will leave the homeless group soon because Nakoshi is stuck between two worlds. Ken also knows that Nakoshi has a habit of driving off somewhere in his car and returning satisfied. He appears to care for Nakoshi's well being as he confronts him when he sees him "looking downward", a sign Nakoshi has given up. Ken tries to help by telling him its too early for him to do that.
