•4. Personality and History:

History:

Jake was always a lonely child, he doesn't have any brothers and while living in the states he didn't really have friends, he was usually discriminated for being half Korean. While being a loner he met his favourite thing in the world: music, and after that, he forced his parents to gift him a guitar. Two years after the first encounter with music and after learning to play guitar, he bought a bass, and a year after that he forced his dad to bought him drums.

Then he went to Canada with both of his parents and there he met his bestest friends of all the universe: Zac, Ian and Evan (they have the other three tattoos.) and they were just like him: they had the passion for music he did, so they created a band while they were in high school, playing the songs Jake usually created. They didn't obtained fame so when they discovered Jake could be a famous idol in Korea they forced him to go there and follow his dream.

That's when he had the first fight with his father: when he told him he wanted to follow his dreams, his dad said he shouldn't it was just a stupid dream. A few months later he had his second fight when his dad discovered Jake was about to travel to Korea and the third one ended with the divorce of his parents and he never knowing anything else about his dad.

When he came to Korea he didn't really have a place to stay, the money his mother gave him wasn't enough to rent a place so while finding an entertainment company that would pay him enough and would accept him he would usually sneak into saunas or public baths and sleep there for the night. Then he would go the other day to try find a job in an entertainment industry or at least a part-time job at a fast-food restaurant. He would play guitar in the streets to buy some lunch and one day while doing that a representative of SMTOWN found him, he trained there a few months before transfering to "One Wing".

Personality: 

On-screen: since at first time he gives a charismatic vibe the company thinks he should act like that, so he's usually a talkative person in the variety shows. Being the leader he usually acts like an 'appa' of his other members, being a little bit naggy and annoying when he needs to. He's usually smiling and being like, the sweetest person in the world. He usually likes showing off all of his skills while on stage, he likes rapping his soul off, and when he can perform an instrument: he shows his sould by playing it. 

Off-screen: he's a sweet, shy guy actually. He's childish since he couldn't act like that when he was young. He likes playing stupid pranks and telling lame jokes so he can light up the mood. He's really gullible and believes a lot in the lies other says, unless he has been taking care and analizing every mobement of that person. When a member doesn't want to practize he always says before accepting it "don't lie to me about this, if you ever fail on stage, it'll be because you're not practicing now, and the one being criticzided is you, not me." and then he walks away, so no one really likes sneaking the practice. He's usually quiet in the dorm. He's either in his room with his guitar or monitoring s activities so they cannot get hurt. He's always taking care of them, and he can see in their eyes if there's somehting wrong (the reason he was called the leader is this) so nobody can hide if they are sad to him.
