Birthdate: 12251996
Current Residence: Jeju-do, South Korea
Faceclaim: oh my girl's jiho
Backup Faceclaim: oh my girl's binnie
Trivia:
— iseul mentioned that she was a pre-med major before soonyoung told her that he was majoring in dance in fear of him looking down on her taking a music major like the rest of society
— it was also to avoid him as the medicine block was the largest and most complicated area in the university so in case he was actually in her school, it would be difficult for him to spot her if he went there to find her
— apparently in real life, she had lots of friends which was one of the reasons why she enjoyed making new friends on Kakao Talk but this was just to prevent soonyoung from knowing that she was actually a loner
— she told soonyoung that she lived in jeju island as a back up plan in case he mentioned that he wanted to meet up with her during vacation. at least that way, she could say that she was in another part of korea which made it difficult for her to travel back to seoul.

Appearance: Iseul is a really petite girl with a height of 156cm. Despite this, she has a short torso which makes her legs look long and endless. The fact that she doesn't go out much other than with Zelo explains her pale porcelain skin and her skinny figure. She has natural cherry red lips and thick brown locks of hair. Iseul inherited her large hazel eyes from her father which used to always be hidden by her glasses. Unbeknown to her parents, she actually has a small tattoo on her right hip which she got during her 19th birthday with zelo who called it gay but cute.
Style: Despite being known as a nerd, Iseul actually has a great sense of fashion. But like the prim and proper person she is, she only owns really feminine clothes which give off an innocent vibe. She has a few crop tops and shorts which she only wears on special occasions. Iseul is always seen wearing sandals or sneakers, hardly ever heels because she can't walk in them. Zelo has tried persuading Iseul to try out ier clothing but her reason for not doing so is because of her parents.
+ calm, hardworking, kind, optimistic
- gullible, indecisive, secretive, stubborn
Background: Iseul was always seen as a poker-faced introvert who always kept to herself and never talked... ever. But they never saw the times when her eyes lit up when she got a message from Soonyoung or when she burst out in silent laughter at the antics of her best friend. Neither did they notice her small smiles when she finished composing her music piece. They never got to know her well enough to understand that she never talked because she couldn't. She had so many thoughts, so many bright ideas to share yet she couldn't because no one understood. Well, excluding her best friend and her loving parents. Music was her only escape. She felt as though her sorrow, her happiness and her anger could only be felt by people through the strumming of her guitar or even from the notes of the piano. Her inability to talk was the main reason she could not make friends, let alone find a boyfriend. This was why she resulted in using Kakao Talk, a platform for her to make friends, or even find someone who could be interested in her, for her.
Friends/Family:
Kang Jimin & Alexandra Winters // Loving and doting parents to their one and only daughter. Their daughter's inability to speak was in no way a disability to them. Jimin had a Ph.D in Psychology while Alex had one in Medicine. Even though they were more science-inclined, they never forced Iseul into their line of work. When Iseul showed interest in soccer, they were there to cheer her on during matches and clean up her wounds when injured. When she decided to be an artist, they encouragingly sent her to art classes and made it a thing to have a painting competition every Saturday night. Even when Iseul changed her mind to play music, they happily bought for her a personal violin and attended her every concert. They always supported her every decision and were relieved when she made friends with Zelo especially since they saw how Zelo brought out Iseul's true self. When they noticed that Iseul was sticking to her phone more than usual, they wanted to get to know more about the guy who was making Iseul feel special. With a few advice to Iseul about going clean with her actual self and that the guy might not be who he actually is, they left her to continue chatting with Soonyoung, promising to always have her back if she needed anything.
Online Love: Kwon Soonyoung
How They Met: Soonyoung found Iseul on Kakao Talk and when he saw her profile picture at that time, he realised how innocent and beautiful she looked. He recognised her from the public library when he passed her the book she couldn't reach from the shelf and her smile made him speechless. Going against his principles of not believing in online dating, he sent her a message. Iseul was surprised that a boy was talking to her because it had only been a few days since she started using Kakao Talk after being forced to by Zelo who asked her to"live a little". Her eyes widened when she realised who he was from his picture and replied instantly, thanking him once again for the book she really needed for her project. Surprisingly, despite being slighly awkward at first, soonyoung's lame jokes and easy-going personality made iseul feel at ease and their conversation continued on naturally.
Interactions: they only ever text on Kakao. they have never called each other or met up in real life since neither of them have asked before and mainly because iseul didn't want to disappoint soonyoung. at most, they would take selfies of themselves or videos of their surroundings to update each other on what they were doing at that time. she would be lying if iseul said she didn't want to just meet up with soonyoung and explain to him everything but she was too scared to do so. in the 5 months they knew each other, iseul felt as though soonyoung was everything she wanted from a guy and losing would mean losing part of herself as well. he made her laugh like no one can and feel things she could only read in books and honestly, she hoped that soonyoung felt the same way.
