PERSONALITY。
— persistent optimist; Seo Woo is always smiling. She like to be happy and to make people happy, even if that meant she had to suffer for it. Seo Woo never gives up when she's started something and believes in hard work. She believes that if she works hard enough at a problem, it will get sorted out no matter how big of a problem it is. She's always looking at the bright side and believes everything has a silver lining, that everything will get better. She's very playful and especially likes playing with children.
— too nice for her own good; She's the type to get bullied and, when confronted by her friends, believes that she's helping them in her own way and that they really do need help. She's the type to believe in the good in every one and as such, a lot of people take advantage of her or think she's gullibe. One person who especially takes advantage of her is her brother, who is mostly the reason why she took on so many jobs. No matter what happens though, she's always putting on a smile and a bright persona. She barely tells anyone about her problems and prefers to solve them herself rather than bothering someone else with it.

She barely tells anyone about her problems and prefers to solve them herself rather than bothering someone else with it.
— but not dumb; Seo Woo knows what's going on though. She's aware that some people are taking advantage of her, but she prefers to keep it that way rather than fighting back. It might be because she's too much of a pacifist or she just can't say no to people, especially her little brother. It may also be because she was raised too well as an older sister to turn away people who she thinks need help.
— the scary part; She's a human being though, and as such she has feelings, as such she also gets frustrated and angry. People like this get angry at a different way. When Seo Woo's had enough or gets angry, she stays quiet and locks herself in her room. Her friends know that when this happens, it's better to leave her alone cause anymore provocation could lead to her actually shouting. During these times, she'd often to herself, often regretting getting angry or when she yells, she quickly apologizes and feels that she was in the wrong of getting angry (even if that wasn't the case),
LIFESTYLE。
— When she's not running around trying to not be late for her jobs, she's trying to get some more rest so she won't get later for her jobs later. Seo Woo is independent from her parents, she thinks if she stayed at their house any longer, she would be too much of a burden for them, especially since she thought she was too old to depend on them anymore. She can't really enjoy a lot of luxuries (because she mostly can't afford it), but she enjoys simple stuff like baking and taking pictures during vacation days. She's currently paying for her brother's art college fees and other needs because he had a quarrel with their parents.
— So during mondays and wednesdays, she gets up at 6AM and spends her days at the nearest bakery (which is actually pretty far), tending to customers and helping the baker with making cakes and breads. When the bakery is about to close at around 8PM, she rushes to the convenience store, puts on her uniform, and works there until around 12AM, sometimes even later. During tuesdays and thursdays, she gets up at 7AM and walks to her cafe job where she waits tables and makes coffee for customers. She sometimes makes the cakes when the chef is late. Again, afterwards, she rushes to the convenience store to proceed with her job. During weekends, she works the morning to mid shift at a family restaurant a few blocks away from the apartment. When there's a shortage in manpower, she stays until closing (which a bit too often).

ULZZANG/MODEL/ACTOR!
BACKUP!
— Min Hyorin [tumblr]
— True to her nickname, Seo Woo dresses as a sort of ahjumma. She wears onepiece dresses that reach up to her ankles and a shirt underneath. Sometimes she wears jumpers instead. Seo Woo usually dresses in clothing that are easy to move around in and are easy to wear, hence the onepiece dresses that she can just throw on. When she goes out, she usually just throws on a sweater. When it gets too cold, she has her trusty five-year-old sweater she got for her birthday.
BACKGROUND。
— Seo Woo comes from a middle class family, her siblings felt like they were high class though. She's the eldest of four; she has a currently 19-year-old brother and 10-year-old twin brothers whom her parents spoil very much. Seo Woo's upbringing was different though. When she was born, her mom didn't have a stable job and her dad had a lower position in his company. She grew up with her parents having just enough money to feed the family and to send Seo Woo to a private school.
At school, Seo Woo wasn't the most popular kid. She got a bit teased for barely being able to buy the supplies needed for school which she just shrugged off. The bullying got worse when she entered high school, for some reason her class's worst students decided to make her their errand girl. She didn't fight back and didn't tell anyone, until a certain Kim Sunggyu picked a fight with the students. He got beaten up badly, but the teachers inteverened and the bullying stopped. She thanked him, and ever since he's been trying to protect her.
By the time her younger brother was born, her mom had gotten job in the government as an accountant and her dad had moved up in the company, he was now a manager of sorts. They were now able to afford different luxuries and her younger brother was sent to a bit of a prestigous school and so was Seo Woo. Later on, her twin brothers were born and they were spoiled like crazy. Her younger brother felt competitive of the younger twins so while her brothers fought over who their parents loved the most (or who they loved giving the gifts most) Seo Woo worked hard at her studies, wanting to get into a good university.
When Seo Woo was about to graduate, her mom quit her job, saying she wanted to be a fashion designer and said she was about to reach the age when you were too old to change careers and be good at it. She compared herself to the drama Baby Faced Beauty and declared she was going after her dream job and enrolled herself in an art school. Seo Woo, being who she is, didn't try talking her mom out of it and understood this meant she wouldnt be able to enroll in college with her parent's support so she moved out and planned on getting to college with her own power.

PLOTLINE。
PLOTLINE NAME!
— Saving Yourself
EXPLAIN YOUR PLOTLINE!
— Seo Woo has always been being saved by her bestfriend. Maybe now, with the help of her new found confidence and her new friends, she'll be able to help herself.
THE PARAMOUR。
NAME!
— Kim Sunggyu
GO ON, SPILL!
— They were classmates during high school and have been best friends ever since.
HOW DO THEY TREAT YOU?— Kim Sunggyu's the one to nag when Seo Woo gets used by her brother again and again. He would probably do anything for her, although he won't say it directly. He's very protective of her, especially when she's not looking and used to pick fights on the people who would bully Seo Woo (although he would usually lose or get beaten up badly).
HOW DO YOU TREAT THEM?
— If Seo woo was forced to pick one person -- just one person to stay by her side, it would be Sunggyu, She's extremely thankful for him and compared to other people, she doesn't feel like she needs to pretend to be happy around him. She just is.
QUESTIONNAIRE。
WHY DID YOU MOVE INTO THE SHARE HOUSE?
— Well, I believed it was time for change. I'm past twenty already so maybe it was about time? *chuckles*
ARE YOU AN ORIGINAL OR NEW TENANT?
— I'm an original tennant. I've been here, maybe a year? *laughs* I'm older than the new tennants so I guess it would be like a hoobae-sunbae?
WILL YOU GET EASILY ANNOYED OR BOTHERED WITH OTHER TENANTS?
— I don't really mind other people -- I mean I don't mind if they get noisy or what. They must be busy with their lives so, I can live with it.
WILL YOU BE WILLING TO BREAK THE RULES?
— What? *laughs* I, um. Why? Are we going to rob a bank? *laugh* Um, maybe?
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT ROOMMATES?
— It means I get less lonely so why not?*laughs* It's always nice to meet new people, plus maybe I get to make a new friend, right?
