FACE CLAIM bts, v
BACK UP seventeen, jeonghan
APPEARANCE sebin is asked a lot if he is adopted because of the difference of his appearance from his parents and siblings. growing up, he almost hated how distinct he was from his family but later on became confident and learned how good-looking he is. right now, his hair is colored ash blonde (or like in the gif beside) and even tanner than he is because of how often he visits the beach.
HEIGHT 179 cm
STYLE/FASHION fashion for him is a form of art and self-expression, which he always say during his time as an atelier owner. sebin loves flowy and baggy clothes, and a lot of expensive fashion piece. but on the eyes of others, he dresses like a stylish old grandpa. but if it's to be described in words, his style speaks comfort, class, and elegant.
ENFP PISCES GRYFFINDOR
curious, perceptive, good-natured, festive
disorganized, restless, people-pleaser
❁ sebin is a care-free guy who loves to take on new things and experiences. people around him describes him as sunshine because of how light and bright his personality is. he gets along pretty well with everyone he meets and has a wide set of acquaintances.
❁ has a good sense of leadership and people are always drawn to him. probably because of his charisma and how he radiates everywhere he go, people around him tend to follow his words.
❁ rather than planning, sebin is quite spontaneous and does a lot of things from random bursts of energy and ideas— in other words, he goes with the flow. he struggles with routines and gets easily bored with repetitions, which is why he's in his best potential working with several new things than work in one.
❁ soft-spoken and good-natured, sebin is told a lot of times that he's a copy of his mother. a gentle individual and excellent communicator that strives in deep and meaningful conversations. he also makes a good listener.
❁ makes decisions based on his emotions, an empath through and through. sebin prioritizes other's feelings and let people walk through him, kind of like youngae. he can also pick up the smallest shift in one's emotion or mood because of his sensitivity to one's feelings or needs.
❁ as a people-person, sebin hates conflicts and tends to avoid it as much as possible. he also doesn't like when someone gets mad at him or has a problem with him and would do everything just to keep the peace. an example would be changing his "personality" the way the other party likes.
❁ the downside to sebin's enthusiastic personality is how disorganized he can be. god knows how he hates planning and kind of runs without looking, he gets scattered, overwhelmed, and tend to over-fix details in his environment.
❁ sebin can come off as over-enthusiastic, which is tiring for some people. he has oversensitivity issues and let his imagination run wild for things that did not even happen. he also gets easily insecure if not treated the way he usually gets.
BACKGROUND hwan sebin is the oldest son to hwan jaejoon and kim youngae, born in the 07th of march 1995. eversince he was a kid, they knew that sebin would take the creative career path as he picked a paintbrush during his first birthday. other than that, he showed his early talent by drawing the walls of their house everytime he was given a chance.
sebin grew up in a normal household and thankfully, jaejoon and youngae aren't traditional and let their eldest son to spread his wings. they sent him to numerous private art classes until it was time for university. sebin was always grateful for allowing him to follow what his heart wants, even though the family has received a lot of criticism for letting their oldest son to take on a hopeless road.
hwan sebin is a natural talent and has won numerous awards for his creativity. his name was already heard of even before graduating from university and has sold paintings for local and international individuals. sebin's career took off early and held an exhibit right after he graduated, he even opened his own atelier that even foreigners fly to south korea just to enroll in his workshop. his talent was so sought off, which resulted to fame.
fame to sebin was a double-edged sword. he enjoyed the privilege, the parties and gatherings where he was the center and the protagonist. he too, dug too deep in the spotlight he had. sebin first experienced substance during a high-end party that he was invited to. there were a lot of familiar faces, there are also new ones. he was offered a little by the rich tycoon who bought his painting just a few weeks ago. he knew he shouldn't do it but as a people-pleaser, he tasted it. it did wonders to him, he had a new world of euphoria— and got into substance abuse.
the addiction got the worse of him. it got to the point where he has to close his atelier, his artstyle changed drastically, and worst, he cannot paint anymore. thankfully, his best friend, yeonwoo, noticed it early on and talked him into rehabilitation in spain. it was a close call and sebin was thankful for his friend and promised to start anew, and collect himself to regain his left off journey as an artist. he now resides temporarily in barcelona as a part-time waiter, and just enjoying the slow life he is living now.
OCCUPATION painter, part-time waiter at a pub
ROUTINE sebin's day begins at 12:00 in the afternoon since his job is night shift. most of the time, he goes out to take his brunch but there also times where he cooks in his own. after brunch and talking to the locals he befriended, there are three things he does— he'd either take a swim at the beach, spend his afternoon painting, or bring his materials and paint at the beach. life at spain is slow and care-free and perfectly describes sebin, which is why he's considering living permanently in the country.
sebin works 4 times a week at a pub near his place and his shift starts at 9 pm until 3 am. it was owned by a friend he made after a few months from his release. although he doesn't need to work because of how wealthy he became from selling his paintings, he wanted to do something productive and what a normal citizen would do. at nights where doesn't work, he explores the city and documents his stay by sketching the places he goes to.
