ELABORATION —
For every positive trait that Youngseo has, there will always be another part of her that contradicts this. She is in a sense, a walking opposition of her own self however, she is trying her best to correct the mistakes she catches herself doing or is told about. These parts observed of her ranges from excessively or moderately exhibited emotions, movement, and thoughts.
To begin, Youngseo has been described as your resident "flower child" in more than one occassion due to how closely she resembles one. Aside from the fact that she'd exude an innocent feel and mellow exterior, the female has been described to be rather loving, sympathetic, and a natural nurturer. However, just as mentioned earlier, these traits has their corresponding negative side to which a few people have voiced out. Now although Youngseo is full of love and is capable of sharing such love to the people around her, there are times where her affections have been too much. Some people who've been with or around the dark haired girl, would initially say that she's rather clingy, bothersome, and to some degree- stupid. They just couldn't understand how a person could be that open to other people, even to those she isn't exactly friends with- which brings us to the people Youngseo is actually close to. In all honesty, there is some truth to how "stupid" or gullible this girl could get, and this is coming from the those who holds her dear. The reason why they'd call her such a word is because of how unselfish or altrustic the teenager is, to the point that she may have already been taken advatage of. Though it isn't clear if whether or not Youngseo is aware of that fact, there is a huge possibility that she is- although she's too sympathetic and soft-hearted to do anything right. She is after all nurturing, and has the tendency to push herself to commit to a specific cause or person for it to grow and develop. The gesture just gives a sense of joy to Youngseo, especially if her efforts are paid off by the other's success. Of course to defend this, the female would express that she is just being open-minded, and would always be the person to give other people a chance- where her usual "innocent until proven guilty" motto and "don't judge a book by it's cover" motto would usually come to play.
Now Youngseo lives by these quotes, and would almost always not listen to other people when they "warn" her about certain people or things because she trusts in herself- or her gut instinct at least. She's very intuitive and whenever she listens to herself, she's always right. Save for when maybe she's hungry or lacks sleep, but that feeling at the pit of her stomach is almost always right. Despite this however, there are times when the girl listens to herself too much and not so much of other people who are more experienced than her, which gets her in both trouble and hurt. This is bad, considering that Youngseo is a pretty emotional girl- some could say over emotional. She gets attached to things and people easily due to her sympathetic nature, and so the slightest display of anything remotely sad would already have tugged at her heartstrings. Those random videos on facebook about family or dogs? She cries, every time. So since the teen has been introduced as someone who mostly relies on her emotions, it wouldn't be surprising to know that she's lowkey pessimistic and rather anxious, mostly in situations regarding herself at least. These traits stems from the girl's tendency of being too idealistic, of seeing and wanting things to be placed in a positive light, to the point of fault. Youngseo hopes for things to be different but then it turns ouot the opposite, which then registers in her mind the next time she hopes for the same thing to happen. Her pessimissm turns to anxiety, which then would add to her depression; which if worse comes to worse, may trigger her condition. Of course, these parts of her didn't just pop up out of nowhere. They've grown from when she was a child, from when her condition started to bother her on a daily, 'will it come back?' 'what if i don't make it next time?' 'i hope it goes away' and so on. But again, Youngseo was never the type of voice her problems but instead, would show nothing but her bright self to the people around her, just so they would've have to fuss and worry for her.
BACKGROUND + EVERYDAY LIFE —
[ General ] Nineteen years ago, on June 28th, a precious baby girl was born into the Han family. She had been the couple's first child together, but Mr. Han's 2nd. This means that yes, Mr. Han had a first family but no, Mrs. Han's side isn't at a disadvantage.This only means that little Youngseo has an older sister who lives far away with her own mother (and possible step father). 3 years after their daughter's birth, another baby boy was introduced to the famiy. Now the Han's weren't exactly well off, they're just able to make meet's ends in addition to their daughter's maintenance. Mrs. Seo owns a store that sells souvenier items, which she designs and manages; while Mr. Seo is a man who helps during medical missions, which doesn't really give him much because of it's "pro-bono" tendecy.
[ Growing Up ] Now Youngseo proved to be a healthy and lively child up until her 4th birthday, when the little girl got into an accident at home. She was unintentionally left in the bathroom alone, when she slipped and hit her head on the metal faucet that left her unconscious on the tiled floor. Nothing wrong was immediately seen in Youngseo's records but after her release, a week later, her condition got worse. It started out with her staring off into space, seemingly out of it and unaware of her surroundings most of the time. Then it went to becoming an upset stomach and dizziness. Finally, after about a month since she left the hospital, Youngseo experienced her "first" seizure. She was immediately sent to the hospital and there it was revealed that the little Han has acquired epilepsy, due to the head trauma she experienced a month before. Growing up with such a condition proved to be rather difficult for the child and family because the Hans felt like they should protect their first born while still giving her the luxury of experiencing a "normal" childhood. School was school, Youngseo was one of the well received students with good grades and a lot of friends despite her condition. Though she did (at times) receive special treatment and sympathy from the other students when she did get episodes at school, which happened about 4 times between elementary and middle school. The girl moved away from Jeju however once she reached high school and by that time, her episodes had grown less frequent than before.
[ Move ] Youngseo had decided to move in with her half sister due to her parents and sibling. The girl was about to enter highschool, that in addition with her medications are something her parents could barely afford- what more that her sibling's entering middle school as well. So with all her convincing prowess, the girl was able to persuade her parents to letting her stay with her half sister. With this, her parent's expenses would lessen because they wouldn't really need to worry about her education and medication; the couple would also be able to focus on their second child. Youngseo on the other hand will be able to experience life outside of Jeju, in addition to getting close with her half sister. Also, she'd be able to get away from the people who'd been mean to her during middle school, and she heard that the new one she'll be attending was fairly nice to their students. So Youngseo's basically got high hopes for her future in the capital. Once Youngseo moved in with her half sister, things weren't really as smooth as she'd expect. Incheon wasn't exactly close to her school so the girl had to commute everyday. In addition to this, her half sister was still starting out so the money she earned wasn't really enough to feed the both of them- so Youngseo had to take a part time job. Of course the girl found it fun, because at least she gets to do something other than school, it was of course rather stressful as well. This continued on without a hitch but again, Youngseo felt like a bother towards her half sister, especially when she was about to enter college. This prompted the girl to look for a place to say around the capital, somewhere cheap and possibly allowed pets.
[ Currently ] As of now, Youngseo is trying her best to get through her first year in college. It's currently her main priority, not so much with her condition just because it's been a while since she's got her 'episode'. She's also got to deal with her part time job, which isn't so bad. The girl works at a ceramic store around Insa-dong, Seoul, which luckily she's able to sneak in Junior whenever the 'mean' manager's away. It's not like the owner refused to have Junior in, it's the manager who keeps getting all ruffled. Also, as long as there aren't any customoers around, she could always work on her assignments in the shop. So, aside from school and her part time job, Youngseo would mostly be seen (or unseen) within the Hwang complex, going through youtube where she'd work on her mini projects. Sure she may be friendly and loves spontanious trips outside, but she's still basically an artsy homebody who loves making stuff from scratch. Besides, Junior would always act like a baby if ever he wouldn't be able to go with her outside, so she'd rather just stay home. (schedule)

PET NAME — Jr (Junior)
REASON FOR ADOPTING — Youngseo adopted Junior after she rescued him from a bunch of drunk men. Later on, he'd proven to be of great help whenever her "episodes" comes back- even without extensive training.
