Yan Hyun was a 22nd century Human man who served as a communications officer aboard the United Earth Starfleet starship Slayton (NX-05) in the 2150s.

Biography[]

In 2159, Slayton became snared in a temporal anomaly in the Wagner-219 system. On the 47th day of their immobilization, Hyun adjusted communications equipment on the ship's bridge prior to CO Bran Hendricks transmitting another distress call. A minute later, chief engineer Jack Somers stormed the bridge to attempt an armed mutiny. Hyun issued a mayday: "This is the USS Slayton. We have a mutiny on board. Help us, we request immediate —" before Somers fired at the console. (SA - IDW Starfleet Academy comics: "Issue 3", "Issue 4")

Kelvin timeline[]

Portions of Hyun's distress call escaped into normal space to be heard as phonic echoes over the ensuing decades, including by Nyota Uhura in 2258 . Despite many searches, Starfleet was unable to locate Slayton, but Hendricks' SOS prompted Somers' father to help found Starfleet Academy in 2161, and Hyun's message motivated Earth Starfleet and later Alexander Marcus of the Federation Starfleet to maintain a coverup surrounding the mutiny. (SA - IDW Starfleet Academy comics: "Issue 1", "Issue 3")

In 2261 , when a group of Starfleet Academy cadets discovered Slayton in Wagner-219, Hyun attended a crew briefing. After the ship maneuvered out of the anomaly, Hyun picked up a hail from the USS Wilson, confirming their return to normal space in the year 2261.

On week later, Hyun stood beside his fellow crewmates during a ceremony to honor Slayton's recovery. (SA - IDW Starfleet Academy comic: "Issue 5")
