*she's soft-spoken but not that she doesn't voice out her thoughts but soft-spoken as in her voice itself is soft until her mean side comes out.*

Background : 
han se ryung was born on the 14th of april in 1996. she is the younger of two children. she also has an older brother, han se jin. being the youngest as well as a daughter, se ryung was quite pampered. everything she wanted was always given to her. plus se ryung's family is quite well-off. her father invests a lot in stock markets and her mother is a traditional musician playing the seul. in fact, se ryung's mother has been named a human cultural asset by the government of korea.

se ryung started dancing at the age of 7. but unlike most kids who liked ballet or hip hop or even ballroom dancing, se ryung did traditional korean dances. her mother brought her to a traditional dance performance. she found the moves and stories fascinating and was constantly entranced so her mother decided to let her pursue it despite her young age. the more se ryung got into this genre, the more she fell in love.

eventually, se ryung decided to pursue it as a career. she has joined a few competitions and won various prizes. when it was time for her to go to university, it was no surprise when se ryung chose traditional korean dance as her major. in her department, she is one of the best dancers and often gets placed in lead roles in performances. having placed internationally in competitions as well, se ryung is said to have the talent and possiblity in being declared a cultural asset like her mother. also, this is why se ryung is very demanding. growing up and hearing all these comments would make one like this. even though her mother is a musician and she is a dancer, se ryung is often compared to her mother so she feels like she has to work harder than anyone else to reach her mother's standards.

one day, after a late night training session in preparation for a performance, se ryung was getting changed and opened her locker to find a box of white gold where the edges are lined with pale blue diamonds. in the center of the box is a gold flower charm. se ryung slowly opened the box to find a deck of pastel blue cards. the blue cards had small white flowers and vines along the sides with a treble clef in the center. above it was an old english sentence, 'if music is the food of love, play on.' it clearly did not belong to her but it was placed in her locker. se ryung needed to get home so she stuffed the box in her bag, thinking she will search for it's owner another day and made her way home since it was late.

Lifestyle : 
se ryung's life is fairly simple. it mostly revolves around her dance. she wakes up early most mornings to go for a jog and goes to whatever classes she has for the day. she also works part-time at a dance academy, helping to teach traditional dance but mostly does it on weekends. her nights are either spent in the practice room or at home, relaxing. occasionally, se ryung does go out and have fun with her friends.

Relationships : 
han se jin; 27; architect; se jin is working as an architect at a top firm in seoul. se ryung is very close to him and feels most comfortable around him. but since he is now a working adult and she is still in university, se ryung can rarely meet him. he would send her occasional text messages asking how she was.

cheon songyi; 18; multimedia arts student; songyi is se ryung's cousin. their mothers were sisters so they grew up knowing each other. both girls ended up applying to the same university so they decided to live together. se ryung has a pretty good relationship with songyi. 

oh hayoung; 21; traditional dance student; hayoung is se ryung's best friend. they have both been studying together for a long time and met at a young age. they also chose to apply to the same universityas it had the best dance program in the country. hayoung is not as demanding as se ryung so she's slightly more popular but she understands why se ryung is the way she is.
She's my guardian

Interactions : 
se ryung and flora are surprisingly similar. their personalities are similar so they get along very well. flora is super cynical and looks down on every girl except se ryung. she doesn't like people easily. in a way, flora is also quite arrogant. but she is also protective of se ryung. 
when she hears someone badmouthing se ryung which is almost always
'where's that little ?! let me at her! i'll make her regret it!!'
so yeah, she's pretty mean unlike her looks. literally, she mean to everyone but se ryung.
HE, WHO HATH THY HEART
 
Full Name : choi seungcheol
Ethnicity : korean
Birthday + Age : august 8 1995 + 22
Guardian : freddie
Back up Faceclaim : zuho sf9
Personality : 
positive; friendly, playful, eloquent
negative; stubborn, critical, disorganised

choi seungcheol is one of the most popular guys in xavier university. it's not surprising considering he's good-looking, talented and super friendly. he smiles and greets everyone he sees. everyone knows who choi seungcheol is and choi seungcheol knows almost everyone. he is also quite playful. he loves making jokes and playing pranks on people. seungcheol's boyish grin is his greatest charm and what attracts most females to him. seungcheol is also eloquent with his words. he knows how to use words to his advantage. it helps with him producing music and writing lyrics.

despite all the praise just given for choi seungcheol, he also has his flaws. one would be that seungcheol is stubborn. when he decides on something, no one and no thing can stop him and change his mind. unfortunately, with his eloquency, seungcheol can also be extremely critical of others. he has high standards and expects the same of others and his work. when he is unsatisfied with something, he will damn sure let the other person know. along with those, seungcheol is also disorganised. looking at his workspace, you can find papers everywhere and maybe even remnants of food. his room is only slightly better as in no food. but clothes, papers and instruments are all over the room.

Background : 
seungcheol is from daegu, south korea and from an upper middle class family. he's the eldest son with a younger brother who is seven years younger. seungcheol moved to seoul as he was offered a scholarship to xavier university, majoring in music. he dreams of being a music producer. since he was a child, seungcheol has learnt various instruments such as guitar, piano, drums, violin and gayageum. everyone oftern wonders where the heck he found the time to learn all those.

Lifestyle : 
like se ryung, seungcheol also leads a fairly simple life. unlike his friendly demeanor, he actually likes staying at home. people think he's a frequent clubber or has an active nightlife because of how friendly he is, him knowing a lot people and music background but that is untrue. of course, seungcheol isn't a complete hermit. he is still a young man with loads of energy so yes, he goes clubbing occasionally. just not like those frequent club-goers. he goes to the gym a few times a week as well. furthermore, some of the music he's produced is quite popular. he's sold some of his music to various entertainment companies as well as used in commercials so seungcheol is quite talented in this field.
HIM, ME, AND OUR RED DECK OF CARDS
 
Meeting: 
se ryung and seungcheol's first meeting was a few weeks before the university's 50th anniversary. because it was a big event, the university decided to have various performances to commemorate it. se ryung was chosen to do a traditional dance and their art faculty advisors decided to make the performance even more special. she was to do a traditional dance with modern music. so they were paired together. seungcheol was in charge of the music.

se ryung wasn't entirely too happy about it. to her, traditonal korean dancing isn't just art or culture, it's a way of life and she basically felt offended that she had to perform with modern music. sure, the times now are modern and people like fusion but it just isn't her style. then seungcheol got offended that she didn't want to work with him. but at this point, they haven't actually met each other officially or face to face. all the complaints were relayed through their advisors.

seungcheol decided to directly confront se ryung and ask her what her problem actually was. he walked throughout the dance building, searching for her practice room. finally, he heard a faint traditional music song and walked towards that room. slowly opening the door, he sees a girl dancing as if she was floating. at that moment, he realised how beautiful she looked. seungcheol stood there, staring at her. se ryung realised someone was at the door, stopped, turned around and stared back.

yes, he was good-looking but who the hell is this stranger in her room and disturbing her practice? she glared at him. he cleared his throat and walked into the room, introducing himself and telling her who he was. they worked the performance out albeit difficultly. they talked for thirty minutes before se ryung made him leave. se ryung asked him to never bother her practicing again so he left. after, they only communicated over email because se ryung was still annoyed at him.

on the day of her performance, se ryung stood backstage, preparing for her performance. two performances before her was a play by the drama department. it was a play by some old and famous english writer. at the very moment she put on her hanbok, se ryung heard the very sentence that haunted her mind. the sentence on the card,
'if music is the food of love, play on.'
she paused and asked hayoung what the performance was.
'don't you know it? it's a super famous play by william shakespeare, the greatest writer ever. twelfth night.'
the thought of that play swarmed her mind the entire time she prepared. and minutes before se ryung was to go on stage, she received a text message.

"love sought is good but giv'n unsought is better.
my dear viola, i wish you the best of luck for your spectacular performance.
from; your duke orsino"


it was from an unknown number and se ryung never gave her phone number to strangers but before she had more time to contemplate it, she was ushered onto the stage where she met eyes with seungcheol who was holding his guitar.

Relationship : 
well, clearly they got off to a bad start since everyone was offended by something. but somehow, more projects between the music faculty and the dance faculty popped up and somehow, the two of them were constantly paired together. so they spent a lot of time together unwillingly.

despite her mean and tough exterior, se ryung is actually a marshmellow. whenever se ryung prepared her own lunchbox, she would also reluctantly prepare one for seungcheol. slowly over time, seungcheol saw the gold beneath her demanding exterior. he began to fall for her. se ryung was the same. after being his playful self, she began to fall for his boyish charms. but she refused to admit her feelings. se ryung still had goals to accomplish and didn't want anything getting in the way. she was determined to be the top traditional dancer in korea and to spread it's art to the world.

seungcheol had a hard time pursuing her despite them both having the same feelings for each other. then, one fateful day in the far far future, se ryung lost her music for an important performance. her and hayoung and some other girls were supposed to dance on a tv show. she was so stressed and worried. secretly, seungcheol recorded a similar one for her with some help from friends. somehow, se ryung found out and she finally decided to let him into her heart. then the cards started to make sense.

'if music is the food of love, play on.'
'love sought is good but giv'n unsought is better.'


Interactions : 
weirdly, they are never themselves around each other. se ryung is normally gentle and more soft-spoken while seungcheol is friendly to everyone. but with each other, they are constantly bickering. even if they agree to whatever the other is saying, they must first put up some resistance.

eventually it became somewhat of a game. since everything they did always has some kind of resistance from the other, the first one to give in would lose and they would always try to make the other one give in. whenever seungcheol made jokes, se ryung would find it funny but secretly laughed so as to not make his ego grow.

se ryung and seungcheol are basically kids when they're with each other.

Ending : 
of course he does. from the beginning, her heart belonged to him and only him.

TRIVIAS
 
se ryung's life has basically revolved around her traditional dances ever since she was a child.

her likes include cute animals such as puppies and bunnies, autumn, music, the colour blue, sleeping, cuddling and korean food.

she doesn't particularly like sweets, people who don't take things seriously, being woken up, lizards and thunderstorms.

se ryung is also allergic to chocolate so it's sad but she has to avoid those.

she also eats a lot but has to work out a lot in order to keep her figure. if she ever gained too much weight, she would not be allowed to perform until she loses it. se ryung cooks a lot as she has to look after her diet. she would prepare her own lunchboxes to bring to class or work. if any of the other girls needed it, she would prepare for them as well.

se ryung doesn't have a lot of habits but does have a few. when she sleeps, she has a minimum of three pillows because she likes to hug things when sleeping. another is that she stares a person down when she is unhappy or wants to argue. se ryung also fidgets with her fingers when she feels awkward.

se ryung has a king charles spaniel puppy named aro.
