Appearance:

Minwoo has a wide yet small face, with small dark brown eyes that doesn’t have double eyelids, narrow eyebrows, long eye lashes, a round nose, and plump round pink lips. His jawline is quite sculped and sharp as well. He is most confident about his dimples which always come out when he laughs. He has no piercings, although he is considering to get some.

He stands at a height of 172cm, he weighs about 56kg. While doesn’t particularly short, students in Syndicate considered him short because most of the male student are giants and standing next to them will surely makes him looks shorter than he really is.

Due to the amount of time he spent with Namshin who is a diehard fan of hair, Minwoo somehow infected by it and sometimes have his hair dyed into brown. But lately, he dyed his hair into red.

Personality traits:

(+) Strong-willed, intelligent, creative, caring.
(=) Bold, overconfident, mischievous.
(–) Boastful, childish, stubborn, unforgiving.

Elaboration:

[Strong-willed] >> Once you get him going, there's nothing can stop him. He can go on and on about his goals and passions because he invests everything he has into them. You'll see his eyes light up as if you flipped a switch. He also isn’t afraid to stand up to the things he believe in, and not easily influenced by others or by current trends in thinking.

[Intelligent] >> Secretly used his ability quite often to rewind some classes, he can be considered as educated intelligent. He's your typical know-it-all and does-his-homework-perfectly-all-the-time. Most of his intelligence is shown through his quick-wit and ability to come up with a complicated strategy in mere seconds. While he's not necessarily more talented than the majority, he always finds a way to maximize his potential. He gets more out of himself. He uses what he has more effectively.

[Creative] >> Minwoo tends to use his overwhelming creativity to get an advantage in a fight/practice rather than relying on pure brute strength. To be honest, he is not as strong as the other students with flashy powers and his abilities are generally not deadly, but thanks to his ability to affect the flow of time, he can easily kick his opponents’ when they’re just standing still on their spot or moving way too slow, not knowing what’s actually happened.

[Caring] – He’s looking after the needs and other things of his loved ones, but it also means to 'back off' or say 'no' if it is in the best interest of the concerned person. But not in the way to let them be so depend on him that they’re unable to cope up. He will always care and support but the steps of life have to be taken by the concerned person itself. And once he cares about someone, he will still care, even when the conditions between them changed and cut them out of his life completely.

[Bold] >> He’s not afraid to stand up for something or taking a step or making an action while fully aware of it's likely consequences or the danger involved. The reason behind his boldness is, even when he fail and have to deal with bad consequences, he would simply rewind the time until he gets what he wants.

[Overconfident] >> Minwoo’s self-confidence borders on overconfidence. You could find him interrupt someone quite often and say “I know I know”, or speak too much about almost everything and pretend he know all. He thinks he is intelligent enough, and will never give others an opportunity to suggest or advise him. He'll never be proactive, and won’t accept mistake. And, when he makes wrong choices, he tries to reason it with baseless arguments.

[Mischievous] >> Minwoo likes to have fun by playing tricks on people or doing things he’s not supposed to do. He’s an overly-playful person who always plays mean, even when you don't want to play like that, and pretends to be playing when playing mean. Do the same in return and he may grow annoyed or flustered with what you throw at him, especially if you give him an overly cute or embarrassing nickname.

[Boastful] >> He tends to boast about how great he is during a fight or study, but not to the point where it gets annoying for others. He feels great joy talking about it. He’s not doing it to make himself look good though. He just can’t help it.

[Childish] >> Whether or not he want to admit it, he can be a little immature from time to time. His immaturity takes many forms like always deflecting blame, picking fights, not admitting he's wrong, and enjoys aggravating others. When he's wrong, he'll stuck to his guns even when all the evidence is against him.

[Stubborn] >> It is difficult to change his viewpoint once he's got his mind set on something. He strongly resists any changes for which he isn't ready, and he is difficult to deal with. Because, deep down he have enough belief in himself. He is also the type who can let others ordering around him and follows their plans. He isn't one to back down from any type of confrontation, even if going against one of his teachers.

[Unforgiving] >> Minwoo can be hurt just like everyone else. If someone is close to him and hurts him intentionally or is not sorry, forgiveness is much harder, especially if that person tries to turn the blame back onto him. And for his own comfort and peace, anyone can be cut off. That may sound hurtful, but as long as you don’t cross him, or try to manipulate him, it may never be demonstrated. And also, if he doesn't like someone, there's a big chance they don't like him back as Minwoo wouldn't really put a filter on what he says to the person he dislikes.

 

Background:

When Kang Minkyung (Minwoo’s mother) was pregnant, her boyfriend ended up leaving her when she was still in her second year of high school, at a very young age. Minkyung was even considering aborting the baby in her belly because of the stress of raising a child at a young age, but she eventually pulled through and wanted the baby, and eventually Miwoo was born.

Minkyung's family never agreed to Minkyung's relationship with her boyfriend, and Minwoo's birth was never wanted by them, especially when he was born without a father. Minkyung was only given two choices, dumped her baby somewhere and moved abroad to continue her studies or raise her baby and leave her parents' house. At that time Minkyung thought that she will not be able to live if she was kicked out of her rich family's house, especially having to raise a baby alone at a young age, so she ended up followed by her parents' request to move abroad and was forced to leave her baby in an orphanage.

So that night, in the heavy rain, Minkyung sneaked out with her baby and left him at the front door of Daejeon Orphanage, along with a letter and a pocket watch pendant. Through the letter, she begged the orphanage staffs to take good care of her son and ask him to always carry the pendant she left behind, so that she could stay close to her son through the pendant. She also wrote that the baby's name was Kang Minwoo, and was begged not to give him a new name.

 

Raised in an orphanage, Minwoo never knew how his parents looked like. He never knew how it was like to be loved by parents. The staffs told him that they found him in front of the Orphanage front door when he was an infant, along with a letter and a pocket watch pendant he always wore. He never knew why his parents left him at the orphanage. At first he hoped that one day his parents would come to pick him up and told him the reason they left him there, but after being wise enough to think, he no longer expected that. He doesn't want to be more disappointed after knowing the reason they abandoned him, which of course was because they doesn't want to have a son like him.

Luckily, he had never felt lonely all that time. Almost all the children in the orphanage were good friends with him. The staffs also took good care of them. Everything was fine, until the day his power manifested.

It was the adoption day and as always, Na Seohee, the owner of the orphanage tried to find him loving parents but in the end he was always the ones who still stood in the same spot until the event over. Disappointing indeed, but Minwoo had gotten used to it after experiencing it every month for nine years he stayed there.

Minwoo sat on a bench looking at Jooyoung, one of the lucky kids who got adopted that day. Jooyoung looked very happy to meet his new family, too happy to realize that a truck was speeding towards him. Couldn't bare to see the accident, Minwoo closed his eyes when the truck was less than one meter in front of Jooyoung, praying for a miracle to happen. But strangely, the atmosphere became so quiet. Minwoo opened his eyes only to found everything around him stopped moving, literally. Everything but him. Minwoo took the opportunity to grab Jooyoung and drag him to the safe place before everything back to normal.

Minwoo have just saved his neck, he should be thanking him on bended knee, but he just stared at Minwoo in horror as if he was a terrible wild animal who was ready to tear him apart. Instead of thanking him, he spread untrue stories that Minwoo had strange powers and tried to harm him because of his jealousy, because no one wanted to adopt him. And as the news spread, people started to avoid him and act differently toward him. Because of Jooyuong’s fake stories and the unnatural power he has, people started to treat him like a bunch of trash. They were laughing at him, gave him looks, and misthreated him. At the end he was kicked out of his room.

Changbin and Sojin were the only ones who aproached him when the other kids left him all alone in the shadow. Changbin gladly asked him to move into his room. To his surprise, Changbin and Sojin also have powers, and it was also the reason why the other kids avoid them. With their support, Minwoo has better days than he had expected. Changbin helped him to calm his internal rage with his power. The three of them grew up being close to one another. As the oldest of the three of them, Minwoo always tried to protect both Changbin and Sojin as if they were his real siblings.

 

The other orphans had found their new families and left, leaving only the three of them. After all, who wanted to adopt teenagers like them? The parents were only interested in adopting a cute, small, and especially, normal child. No one wanted teenagers with strange powers like them to be appointed as their children. That was the biggest reason why only the three of them were left. There should be no problem because they were used to it, but everything had changed. Most of the staffs stopped working. The orphanage also stopped accepting new children since last year.

One sunny day, Minwoo and Changbin were playing football, with Sojin sitting on the side of the court, sulking because she was not allowed to play with them. There was no way they could win if Sojin join the game, not with her ability that allow her to run in super speed, and not allowing her to play with them was a wise decision. Sojin was so done with this, and when the ball was rolling towards her, she kicked the ball away.

Changbin went to get the ball which flew away and landed near the window of Seohee's office, and at that time he accidentally overheard Seohee talking on the phone. The reason they stopped accepting new children since last year was because the organization that funded the orphanage couldn't fund them any longer. The orphanage was about to shut down and they all started getting worried, didn’t know where to go after the orphanage was closed.

As expected, Seohee told them about it at lunch. Luckily, the caretakers decided to take one with them. Even though they will live separatedly, at least they could still meet at school, and gather at the end of the weeks.

So that afternoon, they were asked to pick up some groceries. It was for a dinner which would serve as a proper goodbye to each other. They grab everything they need while talking about their plans for the end of next week. Little did they know that it was the last moment when they could smile together.

As they were leaving the store, a gang war emerges and they were caught in the crossfire. Minwoo was too shocked to realize that he needed to do something. As well as Minwoo, Sojin was just froze in her spot, not realizing that one of the gun was being pointed towards her head as a threat. Changbin was the only one who could quickly understand the situation, and immediately pushed Sojin so that the bullet did not hit her. Unfortunately, Changbin was shot in the process, and the two were stunned until the sounds of gunshots ceased and saw him laying motionless right in front of their eyes.

After realizing what happened, Minwoo tried to rewind the time for several time, but none of his attempt managed to bring them back to the time before Changbin was shot because he doesn’t have a lot of control with his lack of concentration. And before he wasted more time, Sojin grabbed their hand and took them to the nearest hospital as fast as she could. But it was too late. Changbin had died before they arrived at the hospital – NO, Changbin had died before they took him to the hospital.

Minwoo started to put all the blame on Sojin. She could have easily grabbed all of them and ran in full speed before anyone even noticed their presence. She could have easily avoided the bullet in full speed. But instead, she was just stood there like a statue. If only Sojin took them away from that place faster, that would not happen to Changbin. If only.

Sojin on the other hand blamed him for not being able to do something with his power, for not being able to bring them back to the time before Changbin get shot. Sojin might not know this, but Minwoo blamed himself the most on Changbin’s death. He’s the older after all, he should be the one who protect them as he had promised. But when Changbin was depending on him and Sojin to do something since his powers couldn't help, he was just froze in his spot like a stupid, ordinary powerless human being.

 

Minkyung came back to South Korea after 18 years, and the first place she visited was the Orphanage where she left her baby 18 years ago. When she arrived there, a funeral was underway. There weren't many people there. There were only a few adults and two teenagers who were sobbing. When Minkyung approached them, one of the sobbing teenagers turned to look at her, and Minkyung immediatlely knew that he was Minwoo, her son, thanks to the pendant he wore. And to strengthen her presumptive, a middle-aged woman talk to the teenager and Minkyung heard it very clearly when the woman called him Minwoo. So that's really Minwoo, her son.

After the funeral was over, Minkyung went to meet Seohee, told her that she was Minwoo's mother and intended to bring Minwoo with him. At first Minwoo refused because he didn't want to go with a mother who had abandoned him for 18 years, but then he thought that living with his mother would make him stay apart from Sojin, so he finally came home with his mother. Finally.

Actually that day there was a family meeting to discuss Minkyung's wedding plan with his fiance, and Minwoo's presence absolutely messed things up. Minkyung's fiance and his family canceled the engagement after knowing that Minkyung already has a child. Minkyung's family was furious, not only because the engagement was canceled, but also because Minkyung brought back her son who should never be there in the first place.

Minkyung doesn't want to be separated from her son anymore, and gladly left her wealthy family to live together with her son. She bought a small house and run a café with the rest of her savings. She was so happy to be able to reunite with his son, but her son did not look happy at all. He only spoke a little to her and never looked into her eyes. Minkyung know that her son will not be able to quickly forgive her, not after abandoned him for 18 years, but she tried her best to make him accept her, and she believed in that one day they will be able to start again everything and to be normal family.

But Minwoo's condition wasn't as simple as what Minkyung guessed. It wasn’t just a matter of Minwoo hating her. He surely had another problem that killing him inside. He mostly locked himself in his room and refused to go to school. He barely ate. He began to lose weight, and always looked pale with terrible dark circles under his eyes. Minwoo even experienced nosebleed and ear-bleed quite often, and even fainted and was unconscious for several hours. These made Minkyung scared. She had called several doctors but Minwoo refused to meet them. There was one who managed to meet him, but he only said that Minwoo was just exhausted, due to lack of sleep and barely ate. Minkyung believed that there must be something else wrong but had no idea about it.

It has been weeks, and Minkyung still hasn't found out what problem her son was facing. Her savings are running low, and she couldn't open her café every day because she has to look after Minwoo. She had contacted his family but none of them wanted to help. Until one day, someone pressed the doorbell early in the morning. Minkyung was sure the doctor she called last night will be there at 11 and had no idea who came to their house early that early.

She opened the door hesitantly only to find her sister standing there along with a man she didn't know. Minkyung rushed to hug her and cried, before finally letting them in so they could explain the purpose of their visit. Apparently, after getting news from Minkyung, Chaekyung (Minkyung's sister) tried to contact her acquaintance who was a staff member at a School called Syndicate. Minkyung may not be aware of this, but Chaekyung knew very well that her sister has special abilities that might passed-down to his son. When they were little, she had seen Minkyung used her abilities so many times to freeze the time when they were being scolded by their father, and their father would be so shocked to found that his daughters were already disappeared before him, even before his eyes had blinked.

After listening to Chaekyung's story and seeing Minwoo's condition directly, the man who came with her concluded that Minwoo somehow had trapped himself somewhere in time for quite a long time, and they had to come into his time and take him back to the present time immediately, or it would kill him.

 

It has been weeks, 27 days to be exact, since Minwoo made this time loop and trapped himself with Changbin in the day before the incident. He knew that it was dangerous and potentially kills his future self, but it was very difficult for him to accept the fact that his best friend whom he considered as his own brother had left him forever. Minwo also, actually, hated himself for deflecting the blame on Sojin, while Sojin herself must also felt deeply lost on Changbin's death.

Even though Changbin who was trapped in that time did not know what was his reason to held him on that day for 27 days, he had reminded him so many times about the consequences that will be faced by his future self.

It was the 27th day in time, when the events in that time changed. Minwoo and Sojin were playing video game and Changbin was cheering for Sojin like an idiot. They should be playing without anyone disturbing them until the next hour, but suddenly the door was pushed open and they saw two people walking towards them. Minwoo recognized one of them as his mother.

Minwoo's anger exploded. He didn't approve anyone to enter his time. He yelled at his mother, saying she did not need to take part in his business because she had lost her right to interfere his life as any mother should after abandoning him for 18 years.

On the sidelines of the commotion, Changbin took the opportunity to tell Sojin who was confused to go back to her room and promised to explain everything later.

After Minwoo's emotions subsided a little, the man who came with Minkyung took on his role to persuade Minwoo to go back to the present time as soon as possible, because he was nearly killing his future self. It took hours to persuade Minwoo to go back to where he was supposed to be, until Changbin had to use his ability to calm him. Changbin told him to stop blamed himself or anyone and began to care for himself.

 

When Minwoo woke up, he found himself in a room that looked like a school clinic but was more sophisticated. His mother knelt beside him, crying as waiting for him to wake up. The man who had entered his time stood right behind his mother, and beside him was a woman he recognized as his aunt. To his left stood an old but classy woman and a man with glasses and wearing a long white coat. They said something to him but he couldn’t hear it clearly. He felt something wrong with his left ear. At that time he thought that his sense of hearing was still adjusting. But it didn't adjust for the next few minutes. Instead, it was hurting like hell. The man with long white coat examined him and the next second he found that he had messed up his left ear by overusing his power the last few weeks. Great, he’s going to be partially deaf for the rest of his life.

Later the old classy woman explained that he was in the Syndicate, a boarding school for people with special abilities like him, in hopes of helping them control the power they possess. He will be transferred to school and live there so they can watch him so he doesn't use his power to hurt himself or others. Although he hated the fact that there would be so many rules that he had to obey, he immediately agreed to stay there, because in this way he did not need to stay with his mother who tried to make up with him after he abandoned him for 18 years. This decision brought him to meet Sojin who was enrolled there a few weeks later.

relationship

  

Mother|Kang Minkyung|38 y.|Cheerful, kind, caring, reckless, stubborn|4/10|Fc: Jeon Somin

Minkyung put all efforts to make up with Minwoo, but Minwoo still can't accept her. He barely talk to her and never look at her eyes. Deep down inside he wants everything between him and her mother to be normal after knowing how hard he mother had been through, but he needs time. If only his mother came earlier, before the incident that took Changbin's life, maybe things would be different between them and he may already made up with her. If only.

  

Former Caretaker|Na Seohee|64 y.|Reliable, caring, dedicated, sensitive, emotional|8/10|Fc: Moon Sook

Back to her days at Daejeon orphanage, Minwoo never know how it feel like to be loved by parents. Seohee was the one who took a great care of him. Seohee came to every parents meeting held by his school, served him proper foods and clothes, and fight for him when the mother of his friends scolded him for playing with their child. That's all you need from your parents, right?

Although they now live separately, Seohee still visits him (and Sojin) at Syndicate when she has free time and of course, after getting permission from the school staffs.

  

Enemy/Childhood Friend|Park Sojin|19 y.|See App|2/10|Fc: Hyunjin (LOONA)

Minwoo and Sojin used to be so close due to the amount of time they spent together during their days in Daejeon Orphanage. He used to care a great deal for her as if she’s his own sister. But after the incident that took Changbin’s life, they drift apart and blame each other for not being able to save Changbin. Minwoo would shoot her with death glares whenever he sees her, and Sojin will do the same in return. However, deep down inside, he blame himself the most for Changbin’s death and hating himself for deflecting the blame on Sojin, because to be honest, he still care for her as much as he did before the incident. He secretly asks Namshin about her quite often, since that brat seems to falls for her.

  

Childhood Friend|Yoo Changbin|died at 18 y.|Empathetic, energetic, friendly, brave, reckless|10/10| Fc: Jooheon (Monsta X)|Power: Empathy

His roommate back then when he lived at Daejeon Orphanage, and the best of the best friend he ever made. He was one of the orphans who left after the other orphans all found their new family and left. His power was Empathy and he helped Minwoo a lot to calm his internal rage when the other orphans tried to mistreat one of them.

Minwoo gets stressed a lot and blames himself on Changbin's death. None of his ability can bring him back to life. He even lose his sense of hearing at his left ear by overusing his power on repeating the second to last day they were together, before the incident that took his best friend's life.

  

Close Friend|Lee Namshin|21 y.|See App|9/10|Fc: Minhyuk (Monsta X)

He’s the very first student who talk to him. Despite the first impression of Minwoo was rather bad, Namshin doesn't mind it at all and greeted him so cheerfully when they passed each other for the second time. To be honest, it’s hard to avoid him. You can see him literally everywhere and talking to literally everyone. Their friendship started off due to common habits and interest. Together, they are evil pranksters of Syndicate. They love to set pranks for other students (and even some staffs, but mostly they tease each other) with their powers, and with Namshin's lack of control, they often causes "disaster", like when they were planning to make the floor slippery so the teacher would slip and fell to the floor, somehow sprained his/her ankle and dismiss the class. But what happened was Namshin flooded the classroom with water and Minwoo unfreeze the time in wrong time, so there's nothing happened to the teacher, the class still continues outdoor, and they bot got punished.

  

Crush|Lee Yeoshin|21 y.|See App|7/10|Fc: Hana (Gugudan)

At first, he hated the girl for her arrogant and cold side. He once thought that she was Namshin’s girlfriend since they always stick to each other. Namshin even carries her hair-tie every single day, which somehow he felt strange because he hated seeing it. And when he knew that she’s actually Namshin’s twin sister, he also felt strange because he loved the fact that they weren’t lovers.

Since Minwoo is close friends with Namshin, it is impossible to avoid his sister since they are always together. The two ends up bickering for stupid reason whenever they meet. And during the amount of time they spent together, Minwoo somehow find himself crushing on her, but he have no idea how to hande his feeling toward her.

  

Friend|Yang Yeejin|19 y.|See App|7/10|Fc: Wang Yireon

Namshin was the one who introduced him to her. While Minwoo isn't the closest of friends with Yeejin, he does know a lot about her. Yeejin actually thought that he was just forced into being friends with her, when in fact Minwoo truly wants to be friends with her and prefers hanging around with her a lot more.

power  : Space-time manipulation 🕒
Back-up: Necromancy

Elaboration:

Capabilities

Minwoo has the ability to affect the flow of time in general area or a specific target by slowing, accelerating, stopping, or even rewinding and looping it. All of Minwoo's space-time manipulation abilities require intense concentration, as shown by the way he typically closes his eyes and furrows his brow when attempting to invoke his power. His control has substantially improved over time, however, and he has far greater command of his abilities now than when he first discovered them.

Since "time" exists and flows within "space", the two are interrelated, and by manipulating time, he is basically distorting space proportionally. The effects of this relative distortion can vary, such as controlling time of a mere object or person may not affect the space they reside in, but to twist the time-stream of a region of space can cause the area itself to warp. Due to time existing in one space, manipulating it cannot affect another dimension.

Applications

★ Time Freeze

Everything around him appears to freeze while he is able to move normally. This may be more a case of Minwoo accelerating himself to the point that everything else seems frozen in comparison. Minwoo can interact normally with objects and people without them being "unfrozen" or aware of his activities. If Minwoo is touching another person when he freezes time, however, they remain "unfrozen" with him.

★ Time Deceleration

Other people and objects continue moving, but at a much slower pace. In this state he can be attacking his opponents at an extremely quick speed, or to stop things from hitting him.

★ Time Acceleration

Minwoo can accelerate/speed up time for himmself or others up to practically light speed while still moving normally.

★ Time Rewind

Minwoo can rewind time to a few seconds, minutes, hours, days and years into the past and alter it. The further he go, the more energy he need.

★ Time Loop

Minwoo can trap anyone or anything into a reiterating time stream where everything inside the loop is restarted precisely every so often, possibly even backwards. He’s able to force someone to relive the same minute, hour, day, year, etc. for as long as the he keeps them there. However, it has been said that it is require intense concentration and lot of energy, and gave a strong, negative impact to his health. Using this ability might result in a loss of his sense of hearing.

Limitations

★ Require intense concentration.
★ Overusing his powers can cause negative effects to his health.
★ Can only do one of the following abilities at a time.
★ Sometimes, time itself doesn't want to be changed, so it doesn't work.

Minwoo has experienced negative health effects from using his ability, including headaches, nose bleeds, ear bleeds, fainting and even lose his sense of hearing partially in his left ear. And also, the main problem for his ability is reaction time. If he's not using his powers and let’s say he get shot in the back of the head, he won't be able to fix the problem, because he's dead.

First Meeting:

It was his first day in Syndicate. He was sitting on the bench under a tree, staring at the small brochure which was given to him a while ago. He was supposed to take a look around the school so he wouldn’t get lost on his way to his classes tomorrow, but the pain from the last time he use his power still stung. His head felt like it would blow up.

“Are you okay? Need me to get you to the clinic?” Minwoo flinched at the sudden touch on his forehead and spontaneously slapped that hand.

“I’m fine. Just leave me alone!” He said it so fierily, but it wasn’t look like the intruder will obey his words. Instead, he kept talking about something that Minwoo couldn’t hear clearly (because he has on his left side), as if he really cared about him after knowing him for years.

“I said just leave me alone!” Minwoo said harshly as he shoved him weakly, and it was when he heard someone yelled at him,

“Aren’t you being too harsh? He’s just trying to help you, and you shoved him with your dirty hands? Never heard the word thank you, huh?”

“Noona, it’s okay. Don’t worry about me. His nose is bleeding. We need to get him to the clinic.”

“Why would we? He said he’s okay. He wants to be left alone. Let him be.” She said coldly.

“But still, he needs to be trea-.” The boy didn’t even finish his words when the girl grabbed his hand and dragged him along with her.

“We’re already late for the class.”

Development:

Minwoo somehow ended up befriending Namshin, and have no option but to meet Yeoshin often since she was always by Namshin's side. Always. At first he thought she was Namshin's girlfriend by judging the way they cared of each other. The two ended up bickering for stupid reason whenever they meet. Minwoo was well aware of his rather bad first impression, but he doesn't understand to why Yeoshin hate him so much.

One day, Minwoo and the twins went to the amusement park to get some fresh air as Namshin said. Namshin went to buy some ice cream for them and it was when a group of people dressed in all black passed by. It was probably a group of rookie idol and as a normal girl Yeoshin should have screaming or something upon seeing them, but she was shaking in fear instead. She tried to hide her face ith Minwoo's coat and clung to him like a koala. Seeing the fear in her eyes, Minwoo couldn't help but feel the urge to protect her.

Namshin back a few minutes later and shocked to see his sister in such state. Minwoo told him about the rookie idol thing, and later Namshin told him about their past regarding men in black. She was probably traumatized by it, and Minwoo couldn't help but feel some sympathy.

Thought they've made up? Ha, NOT. Not long after that, the two back to their normal selves. They were fighting again, to the point where Namshin lost it with both of them.

"Oh, shut up, the pair of you!" Said Namshin heavily, as Minwoo opened his mouth to argue back. Minwoo and Yeoshin both froze, looking angry and offended.

"Can't you guys give it a rest? You are always having a go at each other, it's driving me mad." Namshin said before leaving them.

There was also a day when someone called Edward or something came to visit the twins. Yeoshin was so happy to see him and burst to hug him. Minwoo doesn't know why, but he hated to see that Edward guy. It pissed him for the rest of the day until the fact hit him. Hard. So it's true. He deveoped crush on her, but doesn't realize it until now. Perhaps it started after the rookie idol incident, or long time before, when he feel iritated when he thought that she was Namshin's girlfriend. He wasn't sure when exactly it started, but he admit that he developed crush on her and it was the matter.

Interactions: I think I wrote enough for the relationship sections and I trust you to write them well.

Status: Sworn enemies turned friend who developed crushes on one another.

Trivia:
★ Bicker, bicker, bicker. They niggle and nag at each other all the time.
★ Minwoo once wondered whether the Anime character Shana (from Shakugan no Shana) was inspired by Yeoshin (or Yeoshin was inspired from Shana and behave like that? Whatever). Because seriously though, from Minwoo's perspective, she's the real life version of Shana when she's angry. Her tendencies of saying "Shut up!" prove it.
★ He hates it when people calls him nicknames but doesn't mind when Yeoshin calls him Kang Mina.
★ Yeoshin's words somehow soothe Minwoo's eternal rage and frustration when it comes to Sojin.
★ Minwoo gets upset every time Yeoshin mentions Edward's name.
★ "Oh wait, did she come? I have to put some insole in my shoes or she will discuss the problem of differences in our height which is only 5 centimeters." - Minwoo.

Ideal Ending: I'll leave it to you
