《 WELCOME HOME, DOHEE 》
《 SAYING THIS MAKES ME MISS YOU EVEN MORE 》
prologue : dohee is like a drop of water in a world of oil, she was never quite able to mix well with the others. viewed as unapproachable and uncaring, dohee is out for herself first and then she might think about others. Clear and calm on its good days, the same drop of water can unyieldingly make its way wherever it wants on its more stubborn days. Refusing to show any weakness, dohee is an iron mind wrapped in ideals. But perfection is but a pair of paper wings. One second it can help you soar up in the sky, riding the wind, the other it can be torn to pieces and leave you spiraling down closer and closer to the ground. Which will it be? the rise or the fall? The sky or the ground?

《 unlike the snowflakes melting on your skin 》
personality :
001 - Dohee is a practical person that values good planning and execution over intention. She believes that if things have to be done, they should be well done and like a true perfectionnist, tend to want to do it herself to make sure it's good enough. She has great confidence in her own means and intellect, which can make her quite prideful. Dohee believes she has the answer to everything, but that not everyone deserves to know it. Therefore she will willingly refrain from giving away her useful pieces of knowledge if she deems someone is unworthy. Dohee does not believe she owes anything to anyone and is always putting herself first. She values survivability and believes it is important to be strongest and the fittest in all environment. This can prove difficult for her ego when she is brought into a brand new situation that she does not know the parameters of.
002 - Dohee is a calm and grounded person and she relies on facts more than feelings to craft her opinions. She is always trying to be the most logical possible and follow scientific reasoning and hypothesis. If she does not know something, dohee will not try to invent something, but will rather admit that she does not know and will try to find a satisfying answer. However, if she knows she is right, dohee can quickly get stubborn and refuse to back down.
003 - Rarely upset, dohee believes it is very important to have a grip on her own emotions and act following logic, at it is the power of having reflections that differenciate humans from beasts. As such, Dohee enjoys making plans and lists and being overly clean and organized. A very smart person, she memorizes easily what she reads and tend to easily learn from her mistakes. When, however, she makes a mistakes, it hits her harder than it would others, because she believes herself to be failing something she deems unacceptable. This will sometimes lead her to hold unreasonably high expectations for herself that will often result in stress and anxiety.
004 - When it comes to interracting with others, dohee is quite popular for her looks, but also known for her impartialness and inexpressiveness which makes it hard to approach her. She has difficulty relating to people but also finds them curious in a scientific way. She enjoys watching people's reactions and often fades into the background to take the role of an observant. The way dohee values truth and isn't afraid of saying what is on her mind will often result in distancing herself from people who believe seeming is more mportant than being. However, once someone makes a friend of dohee, you can expect them to stay her friend forever.
005 - Dohee is a quick thinker and witty individual who always has something to retort. while most people would think dohee is uncreative, her facility to find exactly what to say at all time proves them wrong. She easily find solutions to most problems, even if these solutions aren't what everyone else would think of first. She is quite polite most of the time, especially to adults and people she holds in respect. Dohee enjoys having the last word and is often mildy rude or offensive to people she dislikes. Those include people she believes are ignorant, people who waste her time too much and people who are too emotional and do not think before they act. She does not mind rudeness if it's founded like most other traits and can get along okay with most people as she just doesn't mind other kinds of flaws. A true realist, she finds it necessary to accept most situation as they are and to deal with them accordingly, often with a well thought plan. When things goes awry, she does get anxious but will hide it and will quickly think of a way to get to the best possible outcome.
006 - Her hardened exterior does tend to mellow a bit if she enjoys someone. Dohee acceptance of most flaws and her wisdom and knowledge make her a good friend who you can count on to resolve most issues. Dohee will also tend to appreciate people that are not similar to her, like cute, innocent and very cheerful people. She does like diversity. With her friends, dohee adopts the role of mostly following and get along well with natural leaders. In a way, she prefers being the counsellor rather than the ruler.
007 - Dohee is a strong feminist and she enjoys her freedom. She dislikes being put down for her gender or misjudged because of the way she looks. She believes she has the right to be whoever she wants to be. as long as she is not stepping on other people's liberties then others better not step on hers. She enjoys appearing put together and flawless albeit sometimes a bit haughty rather than show her failings and defects. Dohee believes it is okay to care about her appearance this way since she puts just as much effort on the inside of her head.
in a nutshell, dohee is a self-centered individual who believes in truth and takes pride in a job well done. She is organized and clean and enjoys projecting a feeling of flawlessness. It is difficult for her to make friends because she tends to stay in the background to observe rather than mingle and because she has trouble understanding what goes on in other people's head. She keeps a tight rein on her emotions and never let them go before her reason which makes her someone who keeps a relatively stable mood and does not worry a lot unless she is out of her confort zone. A perfectionnist and a realist, dohee stays grounded and often ends up doing what is expected of her rather than what she would like, although she isn't quite sure of what that is herself.
background :
001 - Dohee's parents are both artists in their own way. her mother is an architect and her father is a board game designer. It is a wonder how they managed to give birth to a daughter so different from them. While dohee is not exactly uncreative, she prefers a more practical approach, while her parents prefer a more free and whimsical approach. Being their only daughter, dohee had to grow up fast and be the mature one. They did teach her to observe her surroundings and analyze to extract the essence of what surrounds her.
002 - Her household was a very happy one and growing up surrounded by love always made dohee feel confident in herself, that only being reinforced by her parents constant validation of her. She never missed of anything and given the success of a few games her father created, the family had more than enough money. The life in the song family was filled with laughter and joy and warmth.
003 - Both of her parents being passionate people, they taught dohee it was important to enjoy her work and that is why dohee chose law. With her good grades it was never an issue of if she was able to get in or not, but rather what she wanted to do. She figured with her ability to argue and her love of laws and facts, this would be a good match. She chose english litterature as a minor because dohee always liked books and english. She believes it to be a very useful language.
004 - Dohee's parents where given the possibility to go away to europe for a few months to study architecture, something both had dreamt of for a while. Dohee didn't mind it as she always knew her parents were prone to rash and eccentric decisions. To make Since they would be gone for quite a while, they arranged for their house to be rented and for dohee to find herself an appartment close to the campus, which would mean much less commuting time. Secretly, dohee's parents hoped that without them around her and by forcing her to be close to other students, maybe dohee could make more friends and finally live a little. They always deplored how their daughter was such an adult already but never really took the time to be young and wild like she should.
lifestyle : Dohee has quite a lot of budget. Her parents pay for her housing as well as her tuition meaning she does not need to work part-time and can concentrate on studying. It is a known fact that dohee does not currently have a lot of friends. She mostly has school friends, which is friends she has when at school that she will not really bother to hang out with outside this context.

She owns quite a lot of things. While she was able to leave some of her things back in her house in the attic, she had to move out with a lot of her things. She can bring a tv, a sofa, even a bed... Other than that, she owns quite a lot of clothes, a laptop, a collection of designer bags and her trustee phone she never lets go of.

— Hello professor Hwang. (bows) tea would be lovely, Thank you.
— Hello professor Hwang. (bows) tea would be lovely, Thank you.
PLEASE PARDON MY NOSINESS, but what made you want to move into this house?
— (drinks her tea quietly before putting the cup down and answering) my parents are on a vacation and i took the opportunity to move closer to the university. I lived in Ilsan-do, you see. I saw the poster on campus and thought it'd be perfect. (smiles)
i see... i hope you will FIND WHAT YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR IN THIS HOUSE, then.
(mr. hwang sips his tea quietly, eyes staring at the curtains of the living room, dancing in the spring breeze. after a minute or two, Jaeho calls out to him, startling him.)
...oh, i am sorry, my child. WHERE DID I- ah, Would you mind describing a typical day in your life?
— (carefully thinks before answering) i'm often at the university for my classes. After my classes, I would come back home to study or go to a nearby café. My life isn't very exciting, I just study a lot. (smiles and gracefully take another sip of tea)
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS HOUSE? I told you it was originally built for someone your age. now that you saw everything, do you think you'd like it here?
— It has a quaint charm that I quite enjoy. I also think this is a very nice neighborhood. (tilts her head)
— It has a quaint charm that I quite enjoy. I also think this is a very nice neighborhood. (tilts her head)
after you have seen every room in this house, which room would you like to live in?
— I do not mind, any room is fine for me. (finishes her tea and put the cup back in the saucer before pushing the saucer a bit further away.)
I see. we'll see how things will work out ONCE THE LIST OF TENANTS IS COMPLETED. before we finish this interview... do you have any questions or concerns regarding your possible future in the share house?
— (thinks for a moment) it's fine, I do not need to ask anything.
(he chuckles, emptying his cup of tea, an amused look on his face as he musters Dohee for a few seconds.)
WELL, we'll see what we can do about that. since our time together is over for now, you may go upstairs to the rooftop and tell the next person to come to the living room. thank you for the nice chat we had.

— Thank you very much for your time. (gets up and bow. dohee picks up her cup, asking mr Hwang if she should put it somewhere in particular.)
《 i'LL PUT AN END TO THIS LONG WINTER. 》
《 WELCOME HOME, Di 》
SCENE REQUESTS : Unsure... I think if Dohee was in the room with the ghost, they could become friends. :) But other than that, I have nothing. Impress me :)
comments : Yay! New color scheme to fit this new character :) Double yay, it's a girl! She looks a bit like the other app I did for you recently, but I swear I did not copy, it just kinda ended up like this because I wanted someone different from Jaeho. :)
Dohee was easier to create than Jaeho because she is a personality driven character, while Jaeho driven by his backstory.
AND SOMEONE NEEDED A HAPPY BACKGROUND! Really, though...
momentum : perfection is but a pair of paper wings
