Section 2: Personal Background

Personality:
If Marcus’ friends were to describe him in three words, it would be down-to-earth, fun, but calm. He is known to have the most common sensein his group of friends. Marcus is approachable and generally quite easy to get along with, greeting everyone with a smile. He does not try to put up a front in hoping people can accept him. He can be a good listener,willing to sit down and listen to your problems.

Marcus is modest; he does not think he is all that skilled in what he does because there are obviously other that are better. He is a dedicated swimmer (was on the school swim team), skilled piano player, a good artist, and blue belt karate. Marcus is actually quite conservative; he does not like to show that he is mad or unhappy. With his friends, he prefers to keep happy so that he does not ruin everyone else’s time. When it comes to dares and friendly competition, he is really competitive. Jealousy is one of his vices. Although it does not happen often, but when it does it tends to get really big.

Their View On Life/Death:
“We are here in these lives for a short time, so let’s make it a good time.”
“Carpe Diem.”

> Life is short, there is so much that Marcus wants to do before he dies and he wants to make the best of it. That is why he left Canada after his studies, to pursue travelling and modelling elsewhere. But in the midst of a busy life, Marcus wants to spend it with the people he love and enjoy it with them.

“Death is just another beginning.”
> Life is too short to worry about death. Well of course Marcus has thought, worried about it. But no one knows what is really past death. Religions say heaven or rebirth. Marcus sees it as an adventure – a scary one at that. Truthfully, it is one of his biggest worries though.

Their View On Love/Friendship:
“Love is __________.”
> There is no definition of love. Marcus believes that it’s subjective for what is beautiful to one might not be for others. This is also why he doesn’t have an ideal type; it just has to click between them – whoever it is in the end.

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same.”
“Friends that are keepers for life are hard to find, so treasure them.”
>There are those who you just can relate with immediately, those that take time to fall in place, and others that just don’t seem to click. No matter whom, friends are still friends. You might have to put up with them, but that’s just life. Lifelong friends are hard to find, keep them close and like Marcus would say “treat them like siblings”.

How Do They React When They Find Out Bad News:
Marcus would frown, scrunching his nose. Depending on what the news is, he might run his fingers through his hair in frustration or blankly stare slowly taking it in.
How Do They React When They Find Out Good News:
Jump up and down like an energetic child, hugging anyone that was around him. Marcus would then realize that he was acting very ‘uncalmly’ and would try to straighten himself up.
How Do They Act When They're Stressed:
Like when he hears a bad new, he would run his finger through his hair, trying to concentrate and to think. Other times, he would walk around, arms crossed.
How Do They Act When They're Sick:
He would try to ignore the fact that he was sick and carry on the day. Muffling a cough and taking pills to get through the day. He will insist that he is fine because he does not want to do badly at work.
How Do They Act When They're Tired/Hungry/Emotional:
When they are tired, Marcus will just fall sleep anywhere anytime. Seeing as Marcus loves food a lot, at times he will complain to his friends like a child. Other times, he will just keep quiet. Being a man, Marcus does not like the cry in public; he would feel emotional and hold back tears.
How Do They Respond To People Yelling At Them:
When Marcus does something wrong or if he guilty, he will stand there and take the yelling like a man. He would not look the person in the eye, fists clenched. After being yelled at, he does not talk to anyone until he is ready. When Marcus gets yelled at when it is not his fault or for no reason, he would clench his fist and glare back at the person but he does not say anything. If it gets really bad, then he will yell back and maybe throw a punch.

Because his mother was a music teacher, she had Marcus begin learning piano at a young age.
Father | Im Soo Min | 54| Alive | Marcus’ father who is a junior soccer coach and a businessman does not get along with his son due to their difference in interest and personality. Marcus’ father is an entrepreneur and believes that a man has their interest in more manly fields such as sports, cars, and business. Marcus is a total opposite; appreciating art (design) and the world around him. Even though they don’t get along, it does not mean they hate each other. He still supports Marcus in what he does, but not full-hearted because he secretly hopes that one day he will man up. He has constantly says that Marcus’ takes from his mother’s side.
Sister | Im Hae Mi | 20 | Alive | A university student who is studying International Development at University of Waterloo but like her brother, she wants to travel. Her biggest dream is to actually fashion design and have her own brand. Like her brother, she is down-to-earth and fun. Her friends label her as the most tomboy in her group.

Brother | Im Hae Sung | 16 | Alive | A high school, student who since small dreams to be a doctor. He is not a sports and prefers to stay inside to game.
