STUDENT profile.
ABIDANCE OF CONDUCT.
INTRODUCTION —
as she believes she is the only person at aurora who understands what the word "aesthetic" actually means hwang woorim stomps down the hall with an etched face— occasionally dotted with acryllic paints and a scent of toner from printing photos emitting from her delicate hands— as the resident piss-baby visual arts major who admits she is really "too cool for this school". people want to say she's harmless and only acts this way to seperate the fake es from wannabe fake es, but its sadly true, she really acts this way and isn't really proud of it. once disillusioned by the charm that is A3, she's now over it seeing the drama that is vocal majors that won't shut up, drama majors that also won't shut up, instrumental majors that don't understand what 'personal space' is with their instruments taking up 50% of breathing space, with the other 45% being dance majors and their flying limbs, and wanting justice for visual arts majors and the weird bunch of general majors. some people often mistake her for being a drama major for how "over-the-top" she can be with her reactions towards everyone (and life) but when you catch a glimpse of her abstract paintings of anime characters, 90's-esque photo and videography, or live installations that sometimes involve hand made feather dresses and figurines galloping on beaten up couches, people then understand why she was accepted in the visual arts department instead.

funfacts
• GENERAL LIST OF LIKES / water color paintings, k-hip hop (beenzino may or may not be her #mcm every monday), american alternative rock, shojo manga, astrology, the color pearlescent pink, plaid flannels, matcha flavored anything, vanilla lattes, yoko ono, fall mornings, sunsets, cats (she thinks dogs are obnoxious), professor verbal jint (he's also another #mcm on her instagram feed), drawing circles, mosaics, genuine smiles.
• GENERAL LIST OF DISLIKES / oil based paintings, having to paint with oil based paint, vocal AND drama major students, having to smile, the feeling when you wake up (in general), deadlines, the color blood orange, politics, math, almost any subject that doesn't incorporate art or its history, loud noises (ie. fireworks, things falling dramatically on the ground, people singing at loud volumes), surprises.
• WHATS IN HER BAG / coming soon.
• A GLIMPSE OF THE ARTIST PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS WOOWOO / because this was never explicitly explained in any other section, woorim's specialty in the fine arts is actually photography which also extends to cinematography. something about traditional and digital photography has always intrigued her and development of such pictures was second nature to her. she's known for taking photos that are considered by everyone that isn't a visual arts major "tumblr-esque" and something they would repost on their instagram feeds because her usage of filters and angles just give others the impression of her work being almost like what a female teenage version of wes anderson would do. because her admission portfolio couldn't be comprised of soley pictures and wannabe indie filmmaker footage she also is skilled in emotive and gesture painting with the primary usage of acryllic paint (hence why she's covered in it 80% of the time), basic line art skills, cermaic work (she really likes making her stuff in porcelain but that's a pain in the to do most of the time), and has dabbled in performance art featuring clothes she's personally designed and sewn together but we don't talk about that.
• VOTED MOST LIKELY TO SET A FLAME ON A3 / as hilarious as that sounds, they actually did create such a superlative for her in her sophomore year's yearbook. but with every ridiculous sounding fact comes a less boring story behind it: basically for the annual VA department showcase (which, she admits, was her favorite showcase in her time at A3 so far) one of her pieces in her personal exhibition was a delicate porcelain teapot, decorated with tiny cherry blossoms that was crafted with the uttermost care and dedicaiton of time (it took her almost a whole year, okay), and was heavily surrounded with signs and velvet rope to keep observers' hands away from the piece. Sadly such barriers didn't stop anyone from touching the piece and it was Kim Namjoon (of all people) who ended up clumsily knocking the little teapot, all short and stout, off of it's pedestal and onto the ground so loud that it was heard over the inspirational sounds of Drake. In short Woorim almost set the building literally aflame in a moment of rage and depression thanks to a neighboring exhibition holding a glass blowing demonstration having a conveniently placed blow torch in the reach of the artist.
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES.
background —
• THE BEGINNING OF A KNOCK OFF MONA LISA / Born on an autumn morning with leaves falling graciously from their trees and pumpkin spice being pumped in the veins of basic es, Hwang Woorim was brought into the world by a pair of parents that are no less stellar than any other normal set of parents in Boreas City. She is the youngest of three children, one being a scholar interested in numbers and the other being a basketcase that (she believes) eloped with some rockstar and hasn't been heard since Thanksgiving back when she was 15. The beginnings of Woorim's childhood primarily comprise of a routine of waking up, going to primary school, going home, eating a snack before doodling on her homework until dinnertime and finally passing out in bed after watching one too many sports animes. In a rap she once heard on the radio when she was barely 10 years old she actually "didn't have any big dreams" and as much as her "stale as white bread" parents bothered her about it she knew that she didn't want "a big house, big cars and big rings", but the thought of not having a dream to look forward to did bother her. So while it took a bit of dabbling in random activities, starting with trying out for a volleyball team to pursuing the culinary arts, checking out what the army had for her, studying really hard math equations and brain puzzles and then almost taking lessons on how to play the bass guitar, she found herself mindlessly playing with a camera that was long forgotten but open to the possibilities. And it was then she could see a clearer picture of where she was supposed to be. A couple of rolls of film later and a stained pair of blue jeans, she found herself falling for the beauty that was the fine arts.
• SHE FELL DOWN A RABBIT HOLE AND ENDED UP IN HELL / But as easy as it was to fall in love with the arts, it was not the same to seduce others in believing in her talents. Having already one child that went AWOL (refers back to the daughter that ran away with the rockstar), the Hwang parents weren't exactly thrilled to see that their youngest wanted to do something as impractical as taking photos and paint silly pictures for a living. Their family background was pretty modest in the first place, both parents having respectable occupations as an accountant and a salesman, but their concern lays in the
relationships —
• THE GUY SHE LOVES TO HATE kim jongyul | "really 13 years old" | instrumental major
| while most make room for jongyul to walk the halls with his smoldering looks and seemingly interimidating aura, woorim could care less and is one of the few (re: only person) that will push him into lockers if he was ever in her way. point blank: woorim isn't one to fall for his or his twin brother's famous charisma and isn't going to start now. woorim just chooses to not to explain because "its a waste of my time even thinking about it, so mind your own business why don't you?" but if you ask jongyul about it he'll just laugh and say it was because he's the only one that can make her embarrassed with anything like calling her "his woowoo" or reminding her about that time she almost pursued instrumental arts with her fascination of the bass guitar and her complaint of "why aren't there any girls that successfully do rock music justice?" before she realized that playing the bass wasn't really her thing. honestly, the two actually like one another ("but no not that kind of like, oh my god don't get it twisted") but they're anime ers and the tsundere-ness is sometimes too high for anyone to comprehend.
• THE GUY SHE HATES TO LOVE kim namjoon | "prob like 50-ish" | gen major department
| she literally doesn't understand why general major students exist at A3 but she supposes they're good for something like finishing her math homework or explaining why e=mc^2 is sorta important in life. for kim namjoon, he's relevant in woorim's life for two reasons: one, ahn heeyeon (explained later), and two, their love for hating the school they're stuck in. often dubbed her "personal math geek" because she can't be bothered to finish her calculus homework when she has millions of projects to complete, the two stick together in their own pity party because no one else can hate the school better than her alone. she doesn't like to admit it but she is really fond of the general major because he's actually really smart, almost enough to be comfortable trying to decipher the deeper meaning of the tension between vocal and instrumental majors, and he sometimes looks really good in his thick framed glasses and plaid flannels when he bothers to find it in the mess of his locker.
• THE ONE WHO ALWAYS COMES THROUGH kim jintae | "idk 84 years old?" | prof. at aurora
| as one of the best professors at A3, because he does look like he couldn't give a about anyhting but actually does give a or three when it comes to graded assignments, verbal jint (or more formally mr. jint, but no one calls him that) is one of the few people hwang woorim actually swoons for. like literally swoons. he tells her the things she wants to hear (good or bad) as he can tell she's as done as he is with the academy but genuinely values his opinion. he sees her potential to be a great artist outside of academia but sometimes he wishes she wouldn't look like she was about to die every time she walks into his classroom (or just in general. like even he smiles more than her and the other professors often joke that he's the personificaiton of what the black plague was to the middle ages).
• BEST EVER ahn "hani" heeyeon | last time i checked 17? | visual arts department
| best friends from the day they crossed paths in the storage closet, both trying to get the paint out of their uniforms when they were wee freshmen, hani is the vibrance and depth in real life that woorim lacks in herself. bright and cheery and definitely scary when she opens to lay a track or two about the human anatomy, hani is a force everyone is naturally drawn into and wants to be her friend. sadly for most, the girl is selective as she is with the paints she uses on her portraits of her dog in terms of friendships, and prioritizes woorim over almost everyone else (she has a soft spot for the boy genius that is namjoon, just don't tell him that, but then again he probably won't hear it in the first place so go ahead). fun fact: there's never a dull day without hani running through the halls early in the morning with her hair curler stuck in her bangs.
CLUBS —
• EXCLUSIVE ART CLUB / also known as the art appreciation league, this club is exclusive to junior and senior visual arts students at A3. where they usually should be found being the ones planning trips to highly anticipated art exhibitions and headlining the annual visual arts department showcase, they are actually the ones that are stuck with the responsibility for making up 95% of the posters made for advertising anything for A3 (whether it be for other clubs' or the actual school's purpose to advertise to prospective students) and 9/10 they hold bake sales fundraising to buy more art supplies for visual art department students (because the sad reality is that the materials they're given are no better than crayola brand art supplies since school funding is considerably less in this specific department next to the general major department compared to the other art departments we're looking at you vocal and drama departments).
• ANIME CLUB / the only place where she'll openly associate with the kim twins and hold civil conversations specifically with jongyul, woorim was brought into the club because a) she does appreciate anime and manga, still dedicating copious amounts of time reading and watching when she should be doing her homework and b) oh sehun is president and he needed people to join anyway and he thought why not add the visual arts major who does renditions of the scream but uses sailor moon characters instead. woorim usually spends 90% of her time catching up on the 10 different shojo mangas that were adapted into animes but the other 10% is used by her trying to defend the canon that is naruto and hina (and laughing in the face of jongin because it was finally made canon. yeah)

comments/suggestions —
deleted the love interest section because I know you wouldn't be interested in a girl who is more in love with the aesthetic of love than loving a human being. also i changed the color to orange because why the not. i hate backgrounds and i really apologize for that section being so boring and so bad.
scene request —
it would be nice if you guys had something here, though it's not mandatory.
