style: Hyorin can often be seen wearing the traditional imperial hanbok (often in red and white), since she feels a need to always look proper whenever she's in the korean court. And to be honest, that's the only type of outfit anyone has ever seen her wear mostly because they try not to even look at her that often. Her hairstyle however, is not the typical style of being tied-back and braided or put in a bun, Hyorin prefers to just let her hair loose, besides no one reprimands her for it. 

´ ( who i am )

personality: 
      » One word to describe Hyorin? Death. There's a rumor that if you stand within 10 meters of her, you'll fall ill. 5 meters, you'll break a bone. 1 meter? You're dead. And some people who don't know her will argue that this is a cruel rumor, until they actually meet her. Every person that Hyorin has come across has either gotten hurt, killed or died by natural causes. Why? She doesn't even know. Unfortunately, these series of events has completely shaped her current day personality. One look at her and the feeling of anxiety and depression comes over you, and you immediately want to run away. And maybe this is her stay-away-from-me shield. Knowing full well how unlucky she is, Hyorin shies away from everybody in court. If she runs into people, she looks to the ground and slinks back into darkness. Talking to others? Most people assume that she's mute because they have never heard her utter a word. Although she doesn't speak much to anyone, since most of them refuse to talk to her, her mind is usually b with her opinions, however refuses to say what she thinks. Besides, no one waits long enough for her to put her two cents in.

Softspoken and gentle. That's what you would expect her to be if someone actually managed to speak to her right? Wrong. She is the person no one wants to get close to. She is the girl who apparently brings death to whomever she meets. Do you think she likes being this way? Her countless experiences with death has made her cold and cynical. People talking about things like 'hope' and 'love', what's the point of those? Everyone you love will die in the end. Hope? Hah. Please. This is exactly her opinion towards things like that. This girl is pragmatic, a realist. Besides, humans are cruel creatures. Although she may be quiet, she isn't deaf. She hears the rumors about herself - some say that she curses her enemies, others say that she practices a strange voodoo, however no one has the guts to actually talk to her themselves. She hates everyone in the court. So, if she did actually speak to others, they would probably have another reason to stay away from her.

´ ( wo ai ni, jagiya )

love interest: byun baekhyun
      personality: Baekhyun is the prince of the byun clan, and as his title would suggest he doesn't fail to act 'princely'. Although not as big a lady charmer as Chanyeol, he doesn't hesitate to flirt with the ladies of the court, however, everyone knows he's just playing around. Baekhyun is not known to be super serious, instead he is the carefree, laid back prince. He finds it easy to befriend most people due to his social butterfly personality, therefore it's not surprising that he gets along well with many people. Most of his friends even consider him to be the 'glue' of their social group. Despite his rank, he is rather oblivious about the going-ons of the court. He is rather misinformed about many things, causing him to either miss important meetings, or offend people he didn't mean to, but because of his charming personality, he manages to fix things up quickly.
     

      how you two met: "Your mother is setting you up with another lady from the first rank. Apparently she's rather wealthy." Was the statement from his advisor. Upon asking whom it was, the advisor had given him the wrong information stating that the woman he was going to meet was Jang Hyorin. Baekhyun of course had never heard about her, and was apprehensive so he decided to do some investigation of who this woman was. Although he asked many people about her whereabouts, he was unable to attain a cohesive answer since many people where too afraid to talk about her or they just didn't know. This of course piqued his interest. A woman who scared off so many people of the court? She had to be fiesty or spunky! Finally he found her, but instead of speaking to her he decided to just tail her for a bit. A few minutes passed and what was this? This girl was completely boring! She did nothing but stay by herself in the empty parts of the court, writing or playing board games with an imaginary partner. Then suddenly a quiet voice broke through his thoughts.

"...You shouldn't be this close to me..." Was uttered from the girl's lips. This, of course, freaked him out since he thought he was a pro-ninja. But it was so cryptic and the aura about her was so depressing that he took heed of her word and ran away. Later that day, it turns out that he wasn't supposed to meet a woman at all, and all his mother wanted to do was have lunch with him. Needless to say, his advisor got a prompt yelling-at.

      ending: I have no certain ending in my head. I would just like it if the two somehow just kept bumping into each other, scaring Baekhyun, but at the same time, making him more curious about who she was. Hyorin would of course shoo him away because she doesn't want to be associated with a ladies man like him, but after their countless by-chance meetings, she starts to get swayed by his charm. Somewhere along the road they manage to start a very strange friendship where the guy is afraid of the girl but cares about her too, and where the girl thinks that the guy is a complete idiot, but however is drawn to him. (cliched *slapped*) And then maybe Baekhyun will get in an accident, Hyorin will think it's her fault and stay away. Add some dilemma here, and then BAM. Happy Ending? LOOOL. Or, they don't even need to have a romantic relationship, it would be sweet to have them just end up being best friends or something, andthenhintatsomethingmore (*slappedmore*)


backup love interest: li jiaheng
      personality: Jiaheng's face usually scares everyone off. Besides the fact that he's chinese, his appearance doesn't help in making people think that he's a nice guy. But in reality, he is. Okay so he may have his blunt, rude moments, but most of the time, he's a relatively nice person. However, he does know he has a fierce face and therefore uses it to his advantage when he wants to scare people off. Besides that, Jiaheng likes to keep to himself, he's not anti-social per say, since he has an aura that draws people towards him, but he just prefers to stay by himself. He calls it being independent, and often finds it annoying when too many people bother him.
     

      how you two met: "He's that man from China. Look at him. How arrogant." Those are the words he often heard when he entered the court to work. Was it his fault he was born looking intimidating? Sometimes it really irritated him and somehow today he wasn't able to keep his cool, and he approached the man bad-mouthing him and grabbed him by his collar. Immediately he realized what he did and let go, however the man was not impressed and instead mocked him.But then suddenly the man's face went white and he quickly bolted away from him. Jiaheng thought that maybe he was having a late reaction to his action and was pretty proud of himself. Until he turned around and saw a woman in a red and white hanbok a few paces behind him. He met her eyes and immediately fell in love. HAH. Right. He met her eyes and as she quickly turned to look at the ground, Jiaheng had the most ominous feeling ever. It was as if someone grabbed his stomach and proceeded to coil it into knots - it felt completely uncomfortable and for a moment he thought he was going to throw up. When he looked back up, he realized that the woman was gone, and the first thought that came into his mind was that she was a ghost.

Later, he found out that the woman was still alive. However he decided to keep his distance since although he refused to admit it, he was scared out of his mind.

      ending: It can be similar to Baekhyun's ending. Except maybe with more lols. xD He keeps bumping into her although he's trying his best to avoid her, and everytime he sees her, he quickly scrambles away. People notice this side of him and begin to about it. So he tries to regain his pride by confronting her straight on. Enter a lovey-dovey 'she's not what she seems' scene. And...then...they become friends? I'm so bad at this. ;;;
