APPEARANCE Sora is a very beautiful girl but doesn't enhance her beauty in any way, she would still get stares from guys on the street from time to time but she's not outwardly trying to dress to impress. She's a cleanly person but has never been the kind of person to put makeup on or try new hairstyles, hence her long unstyled black hair. Her hair is almost always down unless she didn't have time to wash it and its greasy, or it's too hot, so she puts it up in a messy bun.
HEIGHT 164cm
STYLE / FASHION Sora's style is really simple, she doesn't have much clothes and doesn't care much for fashion either. Cheap comfy items from the thrift shop is her overall aesthetic. She dresses like that broke college student we've all heard of. She has one pair black and white worn out converse that goes with everything and a few off brand shoes. She has one black dress, one long black skirt, and a pair of black flats incase she has to dress up for whatever reason. Other than that you'll never see her in a skirt or dress. She's just too busy and getting around in a pair of pants is a lot easier than a skirt.

EXPANDED Sora is the girl that no one knows around campus, they see her going from place to place but no one actually knows who she is. In class she's quiet, if she's called on she always says the right thing, and she never looks nervous for exams. People don't try to get to know her because she's impossible to catch, always on the move like she's some sort of superhero. Also her resting face doesn't help much either. Those that had her in a group project would say that she comes off as cold, she does her part and thats it without much discussion with the group. If anyone's slacking she'll just do their part too because their terrible job will effect her grade too.
Sora is mature for her age, a goal oriented girl that isn't one for doing the usual dumb things that young people are known for. She spends most of her time studying or working so she can have a good future. She believes that all her hard work will pay off when she graduates from denistry school and can finally live in a nice home with her mother.
Sora is a huge dreamer, she daydreams more than the average person. So much that it might as well be a fulltime job. Her mom always told her that her hopes and wishes of a better life are useless because the world is cruel to people like them. It's better to just accept your fate than try to change it. But Sora can't help herself, she's been working so hard from a young age and sacrificed the whole socializing aspect of her life for studying and working just so she could do better for them. It must pay off somehow. She rarely enjoys the moment, often thinking about what she can do to for a better future instead. Since her mom was never a fan of hearing those thoughts though she's learned overtime to keep them to herself. Only her and her journal truly know what her true feelings are.
It takes a lot for Sora to open up to others, as someone that got bullied as a kid she didn't have many friends growing up. Naturally she became accustomed to being alone. Even after spending months with someone they still wouldn't know her as much as she knows them because she's more of a listener than a talker. It takes her a long time to be comfortable enough to spill her inner thoughts because even before when she had friends they weren't the best. She goes out of her way for her friends because she's a naturally caring person, she doesn't expect anything back from them either. To her its common curtesy to help someone that needs it, but she sees that many people are missing that part of common sense these days. You'll know you're her friend when she takes the motherly role, scolding you if you don't eat enough or take care of your body. But she doesn't say it in the aggressive semi-screaming way a mom would, her voice is soft and worrisome.
She can be a judgmental person, judging those who go against her morals and values. But she won't stop being friends with someone because of it, they'll get long paragraphs and rants on why they shouldn't do certain things though. It takes her a lot to change her opinion, she usually thinks she's right and does what she wants, because somehow she usually is right. Googling things is her side hustle so she knows a little about everything. She likes to explore but often on her own terms, she doesn't mind turning down friends if she doesn't feel like going somewhere but if they're persistent enough she'll eventually give in if she's actually free. She isn't spontaneous, she likes planning things out and checking off her to-do list. The unknown tends to make her uncomfortable though she wouldn't let it paralyze her either and not take risks when she has to.
Her heart is actually very soft, although she doesn't show it much because she's so busy or have time to let feelings deter her from achieving her goal. Those that truly know her would know she's a sweetheart. She wears her heart on her sleeve and loves doing good deeds to make others smile. That's why she scolds those she cares about. People think that feeling types cry over everything but Sora isn't like that. She's good at containing her emotions, she doesn't cry in front of others. Actually she's really strong, even though she got bullied she never showed a sign of weakness. She took everything they did and walked away when they were done, she didn't stand up for herself though. That's mostly how she developed such a stoic face, it's almost impossible to read her emotions. But when she gets alone, then she'll cry about whatever happened. She lets it out through journaling instead.
She makes decisions based on her values and how it makes her feel. She's big on following her intuition. She already judges people before she gets to know them and the way she acts depends on her judgment, even if they're not actually like that. Since she's stubborn it takes a lot for her to change her opinion, the other person really has to prove that they're nothing like she thinks.
BACKGROUND Sora was born in Kushiro, Hokkaido, Japan to a young single mother of 19. She came from a poor neighborhood, most people born there stay there and don’t have much opportunity. The education was the worst in her county but that didn’t stop her from learning. Sora was top of her class for many years but she also got bullied for many years. Her mom worked many odd jobs, one of the main causes of the bullying in the first place. She was ostracized by the other kids in her town because of it. The girl that bullied her claimed that she saw her mom flirting with random guys at night, insinuating that she had that kind of job. Was any of that true? Who knows, Sora never questioned her mom about what she did because she really didn’t want to know. It was only those two and she looked up to her mom for how much of a hard worker she was. Though sometimes the light turned off and the landlord came knocking on their door for late rent, her mom somehow made it through everytime. Even if the rumors was true, it wouldn’t change her mind about what she felt about her mom.
Her mom worked odd hours, it was never consistent and she changed jobs often. Since she didn’t finish high school there weren’t many good jobs available for her. Sora started working herself at 13, she started her own business running errands for people in the building. Whether it was doing their laundry, taking out their trash, cleaning their apartment, walking a pet, babysitting, buying groceries, getting food, tutoring, she did almost anything they asked her and it was a lot cheaper than any official services. She made a good amount of money for a 13 year old and gave every penny to her mom for expenses. That was only the beginning to her working journey, throughout high school she continued running errands but found a part time job at a bubble tea shop too. Her ambition was just like her mothers, she was able to balance so many jobs and still find time to study and do well in school.
Her mom never told her to dream big because for people like them, there was no way out of that hell hole. So Sora didn’t, she wanted to become a dentist but she was just thinking locally. She never thought that she’d be able to see the world or even go to another country. But her mom wound up getting a job as a maid for a rich guy in Korea. During that time Sora lived alone, even though she was in her last year of highschool she was already independent so she didn't mind and her life didn't change at all. If she needed anything she'd just ask a trusted neighbor who had her back. Her mom sent money to pay the rent for months, but instead of using it Sora still worked to pay expenses and saved what her mom sent because she wanted a savings.
For college she got accepted into Hokkaido University on a partial scholarship but instead her mom got her employer to help Sora get into Seoul National University. For the first semester thats where Sora has been, dorming at SNU studying biology. But she's suspicious of her moms relationship with her employer.
OCCUPATION Student, biology major
ROUTINE Sora going to SNU was a last minute decision so her class choices were limited. Her schedule is all over the place yet she works around it either way. She would prefer all morning class however those get taken the fastest, there's not much time for socialize but she doesn't do that anyways.

– sunday is her mom's only day off so Sora spends her week planning things to do on that day. usually it's start with them getting lunch and talking for an hour then an activity that Sora finds fun like going to a new museum exhibit or shopping. then they go on short few hour tours that she finds, from food tours to sightseeing. it's something different every week. Sora always uses her own money for that too, that's why she doesn't spend much during the week to save up for sunday's with her mom. they might even just take a day trip to another part of korea, it really depends on what she feels like doing. but with her mom being unpredictable sometimes they don't follow the plan or her mom cancels on her last minute which annoys Sora because she puts a lot of effort into finding things. Either way she'd most likely go by herself.
CURRENT LIVING SITUATION With the help of Jaebeom she moved into a single dorm room at SNU. She doesn't have any roommates or pets. Her room is really simple and not decorated much. The only real decoration she has is a picture of her and her mom on her desk. But her room is very neat just the way she likes it.
SECRET It's more like a secret her mom is keeping from her, that Jaebeom is her father. And even worse, her mom recently found out that she's pregnant.

MOTHER Hoshimiya Airi | 38 | 90% | Haruka Ayase
≛ Sora is very close to her mom, she’s her best friend. She loves spending time with her mom and becomes defensive at anyone who even hints at disrespecting her. Airi is a hardworking person yet stubborn and often does what she wants, a quality that Sora got from her. She’s all for taking risks and believes that even though life is hard you can still have fun on the way. She’s still able to remain light hearted and find the fun in her life no matter the situation, even when she knows its serious being like that gives her comfort. Her hope still doesn’t remain high though because through it all her view on life is still pessimistic, people at the bottom will always stay at the bottom. But it doesn’t mean the bottom can’t be fun. Despite being tired she’ll find time to go drink at a bar and flirt with random guys or make spontaneous trips on her days off. Sometimes Jaebeom takes her along on his trips too, they go on secret love rendezvous. A lot of the time its Sora that acts like the mother between them two. She’s more future oriented than her live in the moment mom and worries that her actions would cost her her job. She knows everyone that has come to Jaebeom's house before and they all like her. She wants her mom to be stable for once which is why she chose to go into dentistry because it’s guaranteed money. Her mom wants her to live her life and have more fun, working hard is good but at the end she’ll still be looked at as the poor girl from Hokkaido. Or as she would say, “there’s no point of dreaming big, just enjoy the life you have now. we can’t change the cards we were dealt in life.”
FATHER hwan jaebeom | 50 | 0% | lee byunghun
≛ Sora never knew who Jaebeom was. She only met him once when she moved to Korea and thought the vibe he had with her mom was weird. It's also weird that he wants to pay for her whole college without even knowing her. She definitely thinks theres something going on with them and she doesn't trust him one bit. But little does she know is that's her father and her mom reached out to him for a job as a maid to work at his house since she was really struggling. He didn't even know Sora existed until Airi told him once she started working. That's why he sent her money and that's why he paid for her schooling, thats also why he wants to let Sora use his money to have fun but she refuses. He does want to get close to her though, he invites her over all the time even though she always declines. As for his relationship with Airi, they aren't officially together. The easiest way to classify it is an open relationship of some sorts.
— Her love for bubble tea came from when she was a worker at a bubble tea shop in Hokkaido. She would bring a cup home for her and her mom after every shift so it just became her comfort drink
— She wears glasses to see up close
— She's the worst with directions and gets lost easily
— She is a pro at table tennis. She got her table tennis skills from playing with the old man in her building. He had no one to play with so he would pay her to play with him when she was doing her errand running business, after a while she did it for free because it was fun
— She likes giving nicely decorated letters to her friends during important events instead of texting them. Like for holidays she'd give them a letter or their birthday or if she knows they're going through a hard time
— She has messy handwriting
— She likes shopping and looking at what she wishes she could afford but her mom usually snaps her back to reality
— She wears backpacks instead of purses
— She's love to spend time in some scenery when she has spare time or reading her textbook
— She doesn't check her phone often, many times she forgets its there. She has a specific ringtone for important calls, and by important calls I mean only her mom
— She's never seen snow before
— She sends postcards to some of the neighbors she had back in Japan
— She's not a picky eater
— Doesn't like being touched because she's very ticklish
— Her favorite movie is Koizora. She cries everytime
— If she ever feels like crying its almost always when she showers
— She starts all her journal entries with a quote from a book or a poem that describes her day
— She rides her bike everywhere
— Her favorite singers are lisa, iu, kenshi yonezu, fujii kaze, taeyeon and taylor swift
CHUSEOK She never celebrate it and has no idea what it is, its just an ordinary day for her.
HALLOWEEN She helps decorate her job and thats about it. She doesn't go out or anything.
CHRISTMAS Every year she at least writes her mom a letter but recently she's been getting her little gifts.
NEW YEAR'S It's just another day for her honestly. She probably has work that day.
HOW DID YOU FEEL COMING BACK TO HWAN VILLAGE (OR HAVING EVERYONE COME BACK TO HWAN VILLAGE)?
I don't know I've never been here...
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE AUNT OR UNCLE?
I don't know them so... yeah...
WE'RE DOING SECRET SANTA THIS YEAR. WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO GET?
I don't know, I don't think I'm even participating.
SHOULD WE DO THIS AGAIN NEXT YEAR?
If you want. It's good to spend time with your family, especially since you have such a big one.
THE PARENTS ARE GIVING US A SURPRISE ON NEW YEAR'S DAY. WHAT DO YOU HOPE IT IS?
Once again I highly doubt I'm getting anything.

COMMENTS
This is really rushed so I hope it makes sense. Anything that she's missing feel free to fill the gap yourself. Basically she never knew who her dad was and thinks her mom is just sleeping with her employer bc he's spoiling her a little too much but thats actually her dad and she's pregnant which jaebeom doesn't even know yet.
SCENE SUGGESTIONS
idk pls
