Ali is a man with a slightly below average height, brown skin and curly black hair. He has brown eyes and faint stubble. He has two missing fingers on his left hand, from a previous accident at work. He is shown to have immense strength, as he lifted Gi-hun by his jacket, who was physically bigger than Ali himself, saving him from getting eliminated in Red Light, Green Light using his injured hand, and being able to carry a steel beam during the lights out.
