ELABORATION
"Long ago, when Jinjung was still in the womb, God spent extra time. On his face."
When people first meet Jinjung, their eye can't help but be drawn either to his face or anywhere else. His looks are God-given, and, honestly, people of all ages and genders agree. They're mesmerized by his looks, and no one can blame them. Even his preference for silence and his detached demeanor only amplify his attractiveness. It takes time to get used to seeing that much...handsome, and it's only after you're accustomed to him do you realize that, wow, Jinjung is a clueless, awkward baby.
"I asked Jinjung what his favorite food was. He nodded."
His preference for silence, as it turns out, is genuine but after a few adjustments, you realize he won't break it even if it's the most awkward and uncomfortable atmosphere ever. (Awkward laughing won't help. Good luck.) It also turns out that when he does speak, he tends towards rude honesty. (He will tell you your looks fat in those jeans without remorse.) His unapproachable aura covers his social awkwardness and overarching dislike of human interaction because he's an introvert 200%.
"After three hours of broken registers, Jinjung came and fixed them. In half an hour."
What surprises people is that Jinjung isn't just a face; he's also a brilliant brain. He's intelligent and if you want to know anything, he's the one to ask. He's surprisingly reliable and keeps a cool head in all circumstances, unafraid to take leadership if the position falls to him. He never has a problem waiting and magically never is pressuring or rushing. It's amazing just how much more attractive he can get when his face already is so alluring. But seriously. People wonder why he isn't a model or a scientist.
"So apparently Takuya's feet are cold when he gets into bed."
The two things most contradictory about Jinjung are his observational skills and his lack thereof. For instance, he will warn you if something on the menu has something you're allergic to. But when did you tell him about it? Never. Score one for Jinjung's observational skills (plus bonus awkwardness). In another instance, a girl confesses to Jinjung. He asks why she wants to "go out" if she just walked in. Score one for his lack of social skills (with an extra side of plausible deniability for the heartbroken).
"Breaking news! Takuya is eating with Jinjung right now. They're sharing chopsticks!"
Despite all of his favors and flaws, Jinjung is relatively not a bad person - if not hard to get along with and understand. He is, however, generally hard to approach. Even more so when he is with a person he whole-heartedly cares for. In those moments, it's like the world has disappeared and all that's left is Jinjung and his loved one. The best summary of being present in those moments: third-wheeling. The most notable loved one would be his cousin who may be (unconfirmed) a sadist.
Role: So, Jinjung's existence alone would be enough to send any sane non-aual person to the love doctor (at least once). Add in one also-attractive cousin who no one knows is his cousin and finds it hilarious when they're mistaken for more (detailed in relationships). Bam. Entertainment for days.

LOST CHILD IN AISLE 5
BACKGROUND
"Jinjung? He's Korean through and through...right?"
Born in Mie, Japan, Jinjung grew up healthy and relatively normally. The most notable parts of his childhood are defined by two events: his move when he was six and his cousin moving in with him when he was eight. When he was six, his house was involved in a fire but, luckily, no one was injured. His family moved to Korea afterwards for a fresh start.
"Have you heard? They're childhood friends! It's Fate!"
Jinjung was eight when his cousin - Takuya - came to live with them. His aunt and uncle (Takuya's parents) passed in a car accident. At first, Takuya was bitter about coming to Korea - hated that his parents were gone and that he couldn't do anything about it - but, Jinjung slowly melted his heart with the power of ghibli movies and hot chocolate.
"Wait. Jinjung did that? Why in the world is he here?"
Jinjung had always been a smart child so no one was surprised when he graduated top of his class and went to Seoul National University. He enjoyed coding and majored in computer science, minoring in (ironically) communications. After a month, he found a job in a start-up company as a programmer but the company is struggling so he isn't financially stable.

!['...' 3](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/1e/94/3c/1e943c2c954280551aac1d15974667b9.jpg)
LIFESTYLE
"How is Jinjung even awake?"
Jinjung goes to his coding job three days a week in person from 3PM to 9PM. The rest of the week, Jinjung spends his days (and nights and every moment of his free life) coding. He usually falls asleep around 4AM yet always wakes up at 7:30AM sharp for food and to bid his cousin goodbye. He takes 15-minute naps when he's tired and magically does not go over.
"His taste buds are probably dead."
Jinjung lives exclusively off of take-out, junk food, and water. The copious amounts of water he drinks is probably the only reason he hasn't keeled over and died yet. He never skips meals and has mastered the art of working and eating at the same time. During the night, on extremely rare days when he isn't coding his off, he likes to stargaze or read.
"You guys. I just found his picture? In a magazine?!"
His life outside of work mostly revolves round resting or hanging out with his loved ones - namely his cousin. Takuya, despite often visiting the market when Jinjung is on shift and staying at home with Jinjung when he's off, will hang out with Jinjung whenever he can, even if he has to drag Jinjung with him to work. Yes, Jinjung will model for extra pay.
RELATIONSHIPS

![He occasionally ropes Jinjung in to work with him but not often because he doesn't like sharing his cousin / brother with the world. Takuya2](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/fe/fc/d6/fefcd6a7ab1096b2194622c66d4e47ec--cross-gene-asian-guys.jpg)
![He is convinced the only one who can make Jinjung happy is a girl (or boy) who can do everything. Takuya3](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/a9/80/43/a98043e6347f18002f18a5b91ade3c23--cross-gene-kpop.jpg)
cousin + roommate // Terada Takuya (寺田拓哉) age 23 // model
confident, charismatic, observant, possessive, manipulative
⊱ Also known as Jinjung's number one cheerleader, Takuya is Jinjung's cousin and probably the one who knows him best. Takuya is always on Jinjung's side and despite his model charisma, acts as childish as he wants with Jinjung. Others, since they don't look like cousins, comment that they often look like lovers. Takuya finds it absolutely hilarious.
![Acts like a doting aunt towards him in general. Kim Sungryung1](https://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/s480x480/e35/c0.75.600.600/17333700_1453464547998525_2791356454634782720_n.jpg?ig_cache_key=MTQ3Mjg0MTg4MzMxMDAxODk3Nw%3D%3D.2.c)
![Once offered him cookies and told him he could take some products close to expiration home. Kim Sungryung2](http://frostsnow.com/uploads/biography/2015/12/13/kim-sung-ryung.jpg)
![Resulted in complaints from her kids (namely her daughter) who quickly shut up when Dabin looked at her. Kim Sungryung3](http://www.listchallenges.com/f/items/4a1a2707-cfbb-43ca-ac79-022c8c46aa59.jpg)
boss // Son Dabin (손다빈) easygoing, anxious, caring
⊱ Despite being the one to hire him, they don't interact much. She took one look at his face (and resume) and hired him pretty quickly. She seems to think he can do no wrong (much to the chagrin of her children).

![#1 strongest reaction whenever Jinjung notices something about him. Probably isn't used to being read so easily. Lee Jonghyun3](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/42/08/3b/42083b11bb5204dd527ed6e07a8f3520--lee-jong-hyun-lee-joon.jpg)
co-worker + friend // Son Jinyoung (손진영) awkward, sweet, pushover
⊱ The one Jinjung is closest to amongst all of their co-workers, Jinyoung is someone Jinjung could call a friend. They don't know of each other's life aspirations or deepest, darkest fears, but they're comfortable with each other and are willing to open up to each other more than to their other co-workers (minus Nayoung for Jinyoung, but they're siblings so).
![She always greets him in the morning (or night) really brightly to prove her lack of attraction. Yoon Bora1](https://i.pinimg.com/564x/ef/d0/3c/efd03ca522269909d8dbb91fd79c9682.jpg)
![Probably hasn't had a conversation with Jinjung's contribution that lasts longer than two minutes but continues to try anyways. Yoon Bora2](https://i.pinimg.com/564x/9d/a2/d7/9da2d7cd7a9dc9800cc156528e692a61.jpg)
![Doesn't seem to want to romantically be with him but seems to take offense that she hasn't befriended him yet. Definitely admires his work ethic though. Yoon Bora3](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/62/76/8c/62768ce0bc77a181075dfeaa12934c6d--celebs.jpg)
co-worker // Son Nayoung (손나영) hyper, impulsive, independent
⊱ Also known as the ball of energy (and danger) in Jinjung's head, Nayoung is one of the few girls who has just about no problem talking to Jinjung (seemingly anyways). He might make her blush now and then (or often) with his handsome face, but she furiously retaliates by treating him like normal because she refuses to let his attractiveness win!
![1. 'Good morning.' // 'Morning. You're the market's new recruit?' // A nod. // 'Cool. I'm Baek Junhyung. You'll probably see me around.' // Another nod. 'Moon Jinjung.' Ham Seungjin1](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/08/e1/53/08e1535541f1040da48e4e46749fb89a.jpg)
![2. 'Junhyung, what's your relation to the Son siblings?' // He pauses and looks up from his game. 'Huh? Oh, I'm their childhood friend.' // 'Ah.' Ham Seungjin2](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/59/33/3e/59333e39414ea046602874cf55ededc6--jax-k-pop.jpg)

customer(?) // Baek Junhyung (백준형) intelligent, lazy, bored
⊱ Mentally labelled the one in the corner, Jinjung and Junhyung have had exactly three (3) conversations. 1. The custom exchange of names and pleasantries. 2. Question of relation. (A childhood friend.) 3. Hi.

⊱ Somehow, she ends up starting a conversation up with him almost every visit she makes and magically doesn't seem to mind that he won't reply. She always smiles brightly during these one-sided conversations.

boss + friend + ex-classmate // Jung Jihyun (정지현) age 23
confident, motherly, blunt, ambitious, independent, down-to-earth
⊱ A girl at the top of her class, she was exceedingly popular with people of all genders back in college. Following graduation, she began her own start-up company and roped Jinjung into her company with minimal flair. She finds him attractive visually but he isn't her type otherwise. She doesn't really act like a boss, more like a leader for a group project.
BACKGROUND
"Jinjung? He's Korean through and through...right?"
Born in Mie, Japan, Jinjung grew up healthy and relatively normally. The most notable parts of his childhood are defined by two events: his move when he was six and his cousin moving in with him when he was eight. When he was six, his house was involved in a fire but, luckily, no one was injured. His family moved to Korea afterwards for a fresh start.
"Have you heard? They're childhood friends! It's Fate!"
Jinjung was eight when his cousin - Takuya - came to live with them. His aunt and uncle (Takuya's parents) passed in a car accident. At first, Takuya was bitter about coming to Korea - hated that his parents were gone and that he couldn't do anything about it - but, Jinjung slowly melted his heart with the power of ghibli movies and hot chocolate.
"Wait. Jinjung did that? Why in the world is he here?"
Jinjung had always been a smart child so no one was surprised when he graduated top of his class and went to Seoul National University. He enjoyed coding and majored in computer science, minoring in (ironically) communications. After a month, he found a job in a start-up company as a programmer but the company is struggling so he isn't financially stable.

!['...' 3](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/1e/94/3c/1e943c2c954280551aac1d15974667b9.jpg)
LIFESTYLE
"How is Jinjung even awake?"
Jinjung goes to his coding job three days a week in person from 3PM to 9PM. The rest of the week, Jinjung spends his days (and nights and every moment of his free life) coding. He usually falls asleep around 4AM yet always wakes up at 7:30AM sharp for food and to bid his cousin goodbye. He takes 15-minute naps when he's tired and magically does not go over.
"His taste buds are probably dead."
Jinjung lives exclusively off of take-out, junk food, and water. The copious amounts of water he drinks is probably the only reason he hasn't keeled over and died yet. He never skips meals and has mastered the art of working and eating at the same time. During the night, on extremely rare days when he isn't coding his off, he likes to stargaze or read.
"You guys. I just found his picture? In a magazine?!"
His life outside of work mostly revolves round resting or hanging out with his loved ones - namely his cousin. Takuya, despite often visiting the market when Jinjung is on shift and staying at home with Jinjung when he's off, will hang out with Jinjung whenever he can, even if he has to drag Jinjung with him to work. Yes, Jinjung will model for extra pay.
RELATIONSHIPS

![He occasionally ropes Jinjung in to work with him but not often because he doesn't like sharing his cousin / brother with the world. Takuya2](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/fe/fc/d6/fefcd6a7ab1096b2194622c66d4e47ec--cross-gene-asian-guys.jpg)

cousin + roommate // Terada Takuya (寺田拓哉) age 23 // model
confident, charismatic, observant, possessive, manipulative
⊱ Also known as Jinjung's number one cheerleader, Takuya is Jinjung's cousin and probably the one who knows him best. Takuya is always on Jinjung's side and despite his model charisma, acts as childish as he wants with Jinjung. Others, since they don't look like cousins, comment that they often look like lovers. Takuya finds it absolutely hilarious.
![Acts like a doting aunt towards him in general. Kim Sungryung1](https://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/s480x480/e35/c0.75.600.600/17333700_1453464547998525_2791356454634782720_n.jpg?ig_cache_key=MTQ3Mjg0MTg4MzMxMDAxODk3Nw%3D%3D.2.c)
![Once offered him cookies and told him he could take some products close to expiration home. Kim Sungryung2](http://frostsnow.com/uploads/biography/2015/12/13/kim-sung-ryung.jpg)
![Resulted in complaints from her kids (namely her daughter) who quickly shut up when Dabin looked at her. Kim Sungryung3](http://www.listchallenges.com/f/items/4a1a2707-cfbb-43ca-ac79-022c8c46aa59.jpg)
boss // Son Dabin (손다빈) easygoing, anxious, caring
⊱ Despite being the one to hire him, they don't interact much. She took one look at his face (and resume) and hired him pretty quickly. She seems to think he can do no wrong (much to the chagrin of her children).
![#1 most likely to end up as Jinjung's love interest if Jinyoung swings that way. Lee Jonghyun1](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/25/dd/c1/25ddc122cff23a81777e2e27757d9742--lee-jong-hyun-kdrama.jpg)

![#1 strongest reaction whenever Jinjung notices something about him. Probably isn't used to being read so easily. Lee Jonghyun3](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/42/08/3b/42083b11bb5204dd527ed6e07a8f3520--lee-jong-hyun-lee-joon.jpg)
co-worker + friend // Son Jinyoung (손진영) awkward, sweet, pushover
⊱ The one Jinjung is closest to amongst all of their co-workers, Jinyoung is someone Jinjung could call a friend. They don't know of each other's life aspirations or deepest, darkest fears, but they're comfortable with each other and are willing to open up to each other more than to their other co-workers (minus Nayoung for Jinyoung, but they're siblings so).
![She always greets him in the morning (or night) really brightly to prove her lack of attraction. Yoon Bora1](https://i.pinimg.com/564x/ef/d0/3c/efd03ca522269909d8dbb91fd79c9682.jpg)
![Probably hasn't had a conversation with Jinjung's contribution that lasts longer than two minutes but continues to try anyways. Yoon Bora2](https://i.pinimg.com/564x/9d/a2/d7/9da2d7cd7a9dc9800cc156528e692a61.jpg)
![Doesn't seem to want to romantically be with him but seems to take offense that she hasn't befriended him yet. Definitely admires his work ethic though. Yoon Bora3](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/62/76/8c/62768ce0bc77a181075dfeaa12934c6d--celebs.jpg)
co-worker // Son Nayoung (손나영) hyper, impulsive, independent
⊱ Also known as the ball of energy (and danger) in Jinjung's head, Nayoung is one of the few girls who has just about no problem talking to Jinjung (seemingly anyways). He might make her blush now and then (or often) with his handsome face, but she furiously retaliates by treating him like normal because she refuses to let his attractiveness win!
![1. 'Good morning.' // 'Morning. You're the market's new recruit?' // A nod. // 'Cool. I'm Baek Junhyung. You'll probably see me around.' // Another nod. 'Moon Jinjung.' Ham Seungjin1](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/08/e1/53/08e1535541f1040da48e4e46749fb89a.jpg)
![2. 'Junhyung, what's your relation to the Son siblings?' // He pauses and looks up from his game. 'Huh? Oh, I'm their childhood friend.' // 'Ah.' Ham Seungjin2](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/59/33/3e/59333e39414ea046602874cf55ededc6--jax-k-pop.jpg)
![3. 'Good evening.' // 'Yo.' Ham Seungjin3](https://i.pinimg.com/236x/fc/83/d5/fc83d5b0d75648f80c7685a40dded597.jpg)
customer(?) // Baek Junhyung (백준형) intelligent, lazy, bored
⊱ Mentally labelled the one in the corner, Jinjung and Junhyung have had exactly three (3) conversations. 1. The custom exchange of names and pleasantries. 2. Question of relation. (A childhood friend.) 3. Hi.

DID SOMEBODY SAY SALE
JOB POSITION cashier
Wish a face like his, there's no job for him other than cashier. He literally brings in customers just by standing there and looking pretty. He isn't the most social but when all else fails, he's been taught (by Takuya and Dabin mostly) to just smile and say, "Have a wonderful day / night." Amazingly, it works every single time.
BACK UP shelfstocker
With a brain like his, there's no job for him like being a shelfstocker. He isn't the strongest but he's bulking up slowly but steadily. It's amazing how he just never makes a mistake and does his math so quickly. He can be counted on to point out what products are about to pass expiration or to know what to order.
OUTSIDE OCCUPATION programmer, occasionally a model
Most of his free time is spent coding, reporting at the company, and / or hanging out with Takuya (who is the one who ropes him into modeling aka standing there prettily for money). He told his boss to give him a low pay on purpose because the company is still in the red and he can afford the hit (because Takuya's pay).
SHORT BIO
With looks that most people agree are "God-given," it's a miracle whenever one Moon Jinjung walks down the streets. With the magical ability to cause everyone to blush with a well-timed smile or smirk, he could probably be making a living off of his looks if not for his big brain and for one possessive cousin who doesn't want Jinjung to deal with the craziness of stalkers and fans. Although he's just a desirable face and overlooked brain when alone, he is something out of a BL storybook whenever he's with his cousin who no one seems to know is his cousin. They're absolutely adorable together and since his cousin finds the situation both hilarious and useful in scaring away potential stalkers, it's something that provides entertainment all day long.
"Why do you want to 'go out' if you just walked in? And with me?"
LOVE INTEREST author's choice
Ideal Type: Someone who is caring and isn't afraid to stand up to him but still finds Jinjung attractive and can deal with his personality. Bonus if (s)he also earns the approval of Takuya.
BACK UP none
INTERACTIONS
⊱ initially As a demiual, Jinjung only falls in love with people he already has an emotional (often initially platonic) relationship with. Also, he is the kind of person who would immediately and directly confess upon realizing his own feelings. He isn't likely to think about TPO so he'd likely blurt it out whenever wherever.
⊱ eventually If his feelings aren't accepted or while he hasn't quite understood them yet, he will them his full and undivided attention, going out of his way to spend time with them. He also talks about said person more to his cousin and friends. Basically, imagine him with Takuya but about 200 times more intense.
⊱ following When dating, Jinjung is never shy about his affection or expressing it but will always respect what his significant other is comfortable with. He isn't one to tease (on purpose) so there isn't much reason for his loved one to blush (Ha! His face.) or to be embarrassed about concerning their growing relationship.

I SWEAR, 15 ITEMS ONLY
Conducted by the amazing Son siblings in place of their mom. Everything will be recorded for the record. Ready? Begin– (click)
HEYSLAVE! PLEASE TAKE THIS TIME TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF.
Be as informal as you want, honestly. Dabin isn't here to criticize. Nayoung personally doesn't care. And, even if Jinyoung did care, he wouldn't show it.
"Good afternoon. I'm Moon Jinjung." He doesn't even blink at the energy of the Son siblings, flashing a quick (swoon-worthy) smile at the camera as Takuya suggested he should do to be hired.
WHY DO YOU WANT TO WORK AT HIGH STREET MARKET?
Hope you won't mind the minimum wage, whoops–
"To earn extra money with flexible night shift hours." He unconsciously smiles once more at the slipped comment.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE SUITED FOR THE LATE SHIFTS?
Jinyoung's gone over every product in the store. He would know if you're lying (and secretly judge you).
"I can run on three hours of sleep a day," he states shortly.
DO YOU HAVE ANY UNIQUE QUALITIES THAT YOU'LL BRING TO THE STORE?
He pauses, then shakes his head in a swift "No." He doesn't even realize his face might be considered an asset in on of itself. (He also has no idea about the entertainment value the presence of his cousin / supposed lover will bring either. What a pity.)
DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR THE STAFF MEMBERS?
Is there any product you'd like the store to carry or an event you'd like us to hostlike game night Scene suggestions and requests go here as well!
Jinjung thinks. "A Halloween Candy Rush event?" He shrugs.
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR US?
Comments and questions go here!
He shakes his head once more.
ALRIGHT, THAT'S A WRAP! BEFORE WE GO THOUGH, SAY SOMETHING FUNNY.
He merely blinks in confusion.
