At the beginning Jieun was quiet, a loner and didn't let people approach her. However, now she is funny, friendly, optimistic and sweet. She cares a lot about her friends and wants to protect them. She is more confident than she used to be, but she doesn't consider herself neither an introvert or extrovert, she is just herself. She easily gets along with people and since she is a good talker and also a good listener, she can understand people and guide/ help them well. She is hardworking and very perfectionist, putting a lot of pressure towards her grades, however, she is highly intuitive and she can think straight and quick under pressure. Although she is a good daughter and may be obident towards her parents she won't let them manipulate her life as she is the one who should choose her own future. This charismatic girl doesn't care about what other people think about her and she is quite bold and straightforwards, saying exactly what she is thinking (which sometimes may hurt some people, but she doesn't have bad intentions), so if she disagrees with someone's idea, opinion or behaviour she will tell that person right away. Jieun is very stubborn, so she won't change her mind until she realizes that she is wrong, yet since she is determined and strong-willed, she won't give up until she did everything she could to achieve her goal. She is also quite impatient, since she doesn't like to wait or make people wait for her ("time is money" - something that she learned that makes a lot of sense to her). She sometimes can have a big pride and won't back down easily if she is challenged, which makes her competitive. Yet, if someone messes with her, her friends, or even make her angry she can be fierce (and a bit scary) and since she has a huge temper, she would yell at her friends if they are making her angry, or she may even get into trouble when defending someone in need. She is fair and honest and hate when people lie or hurt others.

 

Background:

Jieun was born in the 1st of April (April's fool), in Seoul, and is the only daughter of the Kim family. She comes from a whealthy family and her father is the CEO of a company (Kim Empire). Her father inherited the company from her grandfather, as their company has been pass through several generations, being Jieun the heir (first female heir) to the company. All of her family had to study abroad in order to increase connections and gain power to strenghten the company. Her father was friends with the CEO of Jung Corporations, but somehow always saw his old friend as a rival in the business, yet he always thought that competition was good, so he didn't have any ill intentions towards the Jung family.

Unfourtunetely for Jieun, her childhood wasn't easy. First, her family was always hard on her education because they had high expectations on her. Also, since her father was busy and important in the company, he had to attend meetings and stabilish connections in different countries. Therefore, when she was still young they moved to New York (USA), for a couple of years, in order to strenghten the company and form new aliances. During her time there, Jieun learned how to speak english and good manners, also being polite and respectful to others. In addition, she learned to play piano and even perfromed in the music academy with classical music. However, not only her education was hard and pressured, but she also had to travel a lot since her family's company still needed to grow. So, with all that, Jieun was used to always being the new girl wherever she went and at the beginning it was nice to meet people, but since she couldn't actually have friends, due to the fact that she was moving, and couldn't get closer to anyone. That being said, she labelled herself as the new girl and decided not to put effort into meeting peopple anymore.

 

When she was about to start highschool, her parents, who have always be going back and forward from Seoul (where the Headquarters of the company were) to NY decided to go back to South Korea. Her father thought that it was a good idea for them to move to his hometown in Neo City where Jieun could finish her studies. Therefore they moved to NC and whenever her father was needed he would go to Seoul. Already familiar with being the new girl, Jieun started her classes and introduced herself, acting cold and as a lone wolf, so she wouldn't get hurt, she thought that if she could be invisible for the remaining years then everything would be fine. However, life doesn't always happen the way you want and that being said, life played a trick to Jieun.  She met a girl named Moon Heeyoung, with whom she quickly clicked. Heeyoung introduced her to the rest of the group and they became close and for the first itime, Jieun had real friends. Jieun enthusiastically told her parents about her friends, and her father recognize the Jungs, being thrilled that his daughter was friends with Yoonoh. He invited his friend's family to dinner to catch up. The two men were happy that their kids were friends, hoping that their friendship would last and maybe strenghten both companies. Yoonoh didn't seem to react to them speaking, and just smiled, however, Jieun was stiff and uncomfortable as the felt like a piece in a chess borad and she didn't like the feeling. Her father encouraged her to be close to the Jungs and asked her not to fail him, even though that she didn't quite understand what he meant by that.

During the two years that she stayed in highschool, Jieun could say that they were the best years of her life, because she managed to make good friends for the first time and she managed to have good grades. When it was time for her to choose her college, her father informed her that they would be returning to Seoul, much to Jieun's disappointement. However, the time she spent there, made her realize that she didn't want to keep moving around so, just like her friends she applied to NCU, instead of SNU like her parents wanted. She literally didn't had the choice about her major, if she wanted to stay and have their support, she had to take the Business Administration major, since she would be taking over the company, but Jieun understood that it was a small price to pay and therefore negociated with them. Her parents returned to their appartment in Seoul, yet they said that they would be calling or visit her sometimes to ensure that she wasn't doing nothing wrong. Jieun was offered a full scholarship to NCU due to her grades, but she declined the offer. Since her parents returned to Seoul, she decided to stay home, which wasn't too far from campus and she would invite her friends to go there and stay for a while whenever they wanted.

 

Jieun was excited, her life would be great, now that she realized that she had some control over her life, but oh boy she was so wrong. Her parents had her whole life planned and even if they let her feel that she was in control, one day they would strike and tell her exactly what she has to do. They want her to finish her major, go abroad for a graduated degree like her whole family, be successful and then return to inherit the company and have an arranged marriage to form an aliance and strenghten their Empire. Even if her whole life was planned, she didn't know of her plans, and as it seems like they didn't know how stubborn Jieun can be, they weren't aware that she would probably sabotage their ideas. 
 

College Life:

 

During the week, Jieun has classes for both her major (with Yoonoh) and minor and spents the rest of the day having fun with her friends or relaxing at home with Minseok, by playing games, watching movies together or even talking and going for a walk or groceries.

 

MONDAY: She has one class from her major and two classes from her minor.

TUESDAY: She has two classes from her major and then she has piano club

WEDNESDAY: She has three classes from her major and then she has photography club.

THURSDAY: She has two classes from her major, one class from her major and then she has piano club.

FRIDAY: She has two classes from her major and one class from her minor, then she has photography club. Friday night Jieun and her friends always do something together.
 

During the weekend Jieun hangs out with her friends, she also relaxes at home, using her time for her hobbies, facial masks and relax. She parties with her friends during the weekend or friday night, since they prefer not to go on parties during the week days due to classes next day.

 

 

Jieun wants to have a great summer this year, it's probably the last time she can be freely with her friends without any of them have any worries. She spoke to her parents and they are starting to make arrengements for her to get engaged after she finishes Senior year and to procceed her graduated studies abroad, before getting married and starting to work in the company. Being the masterplan, logical and analythical Jieun that can be, she will use this summer also to find a plan and the earn courage to sabbotage her parents plans and to do things her own way.

 

When it comes to her plans for summer, she doesn't know what to do, her idea was to be spontaneous this year, yet she knows that she doesn't want to hybernate like Minseok (little does he know that she will drag him out of bed, literally). She wanted to travel to another country and meet new cultures, but her friends don't seem to enjoy her and Yoonoh's idea, so probably they would go clubbing and follow their usual plans. 

can you see me?
