About You ——
BACKGROUND
THE PAST Hanul grew up in the beautiful city of Jeju; the island there was big, and fascinating and always a pleasure to be living in Hanul's eyes. In her small house of family lived Hanul, her mother, her father, older sister, younger brother, and as well as her two elderly grandparents. With a house so small was a family so big. While living in Jeju, Hanul often stayed at home with her grandparents and siblings while her parents spent their morning and afternoon hours working hard to pay for food to feed the Song family, and money to pay for their children's schooling. So, from Monday to Friday, Hanul and her siblings would follow their daily routine. Get up, eat breakfast, go to school and walk home. It was convenient that the three siblings were somewhat closer to each other's ages, thus going to the same elementary school. It was easier and better for both grandparents, too. The siblings could always find one another, while their grandparents had no troubles of having to pick the individuals up at different locations. At school Hanul was always the super, goody-goody student that made all the teachers smile. Honestly, she was kind of a teacher's pet. She liked her teacher's compliments, because good compliments meant good grades, and good grades meant good surprises, and good surprises meant happy parents. So, even at such a young age, Hanul always worked hard; Hanul often helped out her grandparents with their jobs, too. They had owned a small flower shop, that wasn't all too "new". It was old and out of shape, but it brought in customers here and there. Especially when the kids were their to help. Hanul loved where she was. She loved the island, she loved her home, her family and many school friends. She liked the parks and the beaches, and the weathers that changed. She loved them all so much. Between Hanul and her siblings, she was the middle child. Hanul held a very close relationship with her siblings - even if they did have occasional arguments. Her older sister was always watching over the two, while the baby younger brother had to always be taken care of. Nulli, was squat in the middle. She'd either be the crybaby that her sister would come to, or she'd either be the super coolio older sister that fought her brother's battles (since she was previously enrolled into taekwondo). She liked having to be both, because this way she didn't need to be fighting for anything. Originally, as a kid, Hanul wanted to be a princess who lived in a beautiful sugar castle, full of princes and gold and dresses and cupcakes! But, of course, a little girl's dream was most definitely crushed when she learned that becoming a Princess in Korea was pretty much impossible.
THE PRESENT A year after Hanul's grandparents had passed on, she and her family had moved from their old home in Jeju and moved away to Seoul. Hanul, at first, didn't like Seoul all too much being all biased over her beautiful Jeju island, but eventually she managed to get into things. Seoul was a little more alive than Jeju was, not that Jeju wasn't "alive", but Seoul just seemed to be more lively. Things were moving, and there was so much noise. So many sounds and sights and food. It wasn't as simple as Jeju, but it was just as nice. There were a lot things that took getting used to, like the traffic and the different streets around the city. How the areas were more crowded and full of different people; Hanul actually kind of liked it like that. She was too used to the quiet ways of Jeju, and the motion of Seoul was seriously upbeat! Hanul easily got into Seoul's ways. She liked the way things went here, but even if Seoul was really super cool, she still loved Jeju a whole lot. Their new home was bigger than the previous one. Hanul was a little happier with it, since the family was so big before that she had to share a room with her sister - but, now she had her own room! While living in Seoul, and having tranferring to new schools, Hanul was soon influenced into the life of korean dramas. YEUP, THAT'S RIGHT. Her new friends seemed to be quite fascinated in those fanatic, drama shows..- and soon, Hanul started getting into them too. Like, really.. really into them. Right now, she's super obsessed with To the Beautiful you. And she just so happened to fall head-over-heels over Lee Hyun Woo, that adorable actor of a boy. She's so in love with him in fact, that her bedroom is now full of him! From posters, to bedsheets and socks- But, having spent almost all her allowance.. one could say, Hanul's grown to be a little broke. Her parents were a little disappointed at their daughter's actions in budget. So, what did they make her do? They told her to get a job. Any job would do, as long as it wasn't ion, drug dealing or some others along that line; from week to weekend, Hanul took her time to find some easier job that didn't take up her afternoon or afterschool (even if school wasn't in session). She wanted something easy, something she'd enjoy working at. Nothing that involved too much labor, and nothing that had taken too much time. Something that might be considered enjoyable in a sense that she'd be more than glad to be waking to. One day, while she went for a little grocery run to the convenience store down the street - the so-called 7/11, Hanul noticed that the store was in need of some employers. Completely forgetting about her errands, she rushed right up to that counter and applied. For three reasons mainly: One, because the store just happened to be close to her house and it was a job she could do easily. Two, there was food all around, so she could sneak one or two snacks later on during the day (that is, if she wasn't caught on camera). And Three, because the dudes working that just looked so smokingly fine.. why wouldn't a girl want to be working with these hotties?! It was a win, win, win! She could get the money she needed for her baby, Hyun Woo~ Snacks and various eats for herself and.. she could make some very, very close "friends". Hehe.. he.
THE FUTURE Unwilling to stay afterschool, and too lazy to waste her afternoons, Hanul chose the most easiest possible position should could think of: The morning shift. Sure, she'd have to spend her time waking up early to go and work when she needed, but hey, on a school day, you'd have to wake up early anyways! So, the choice of having to wake up early, she'd work everyday as a cashier. She was good in math, and she thought that it'd help her in practicing with money.. also, to speed things up by beating the cash register. Hanul also preferred working in the morning anyways, since she was usually an early bird; plus, she had to keep committing herself to things. Since her move to Seoul, she started becoming pretty lazy nowadays, and based on her status on both money and actions, she'd try her hardest as the most awesomest-awesome, cashier, lady, person, money, whatever, thing. (LOL. What.)
Her work habits are pretty good - always keeping to her counter and assisting customers when needed.. but, there are times when she just doesn't pay much attention and gets herself into a lot of trouble with her manager; for getting caught eating during her shift (because she'd skip breakfast), or getting caught for falling asleep in staff room (due to, maybe an all-nighter for school, or lack of sleep in general), or just being too chirpy in the morning (since she's just a really happy person, sometimes.) Somehow, she manages to get things done when she's told, and works diligently when needed.
PERSONALITY TRAITS Obedient, dorky, gullible, optimistic
IN DEPTH PERSONALITY
Obedient : Hanul grew up to always doing what she was told, since she pretty much lived with four adults at the time (parents, grandparents). She was taught to always respect her elders, and to follow orders like she's told. If you told her to fetch you some water, she'd go on ahead and bring you a glass, adding additional ice cubes or something, just to keep you satisfied. Her way of listening to and following others instructions is also a habit she gained from always being that child, teacher's pet. If her actions make you happy, then she will be happy. She just loves it when she's recognized for the good deeds she does. She's that type of student- er, person.. as long as you're happy, and you're thanking her, then she'll do anything you ask. As obedient as she is, she can sometimes break the rules, depending on how big the concequences are. For example, her texting is usually limited when working her shift, but even so, she'll still try to sneak in a message or two to her besties over the recent news on Hyun Woo, or something. But, most of the time, she does as others tell her to, and stays loyal when needing to, as long as you treat her fairly. Otherwise, she'll just kind of sit there. (N'aw. She'll do whatever eventually. Just like when a kid tells you they'll hold their breath until they die- go ahead. Let them. Because they won't. Believe me~)
Dorky : When it comes to being a dork, you could say Hanul is like, the biggest dork ever; from cracking really bad puns, to squealing with glee at some cute and adorable plushie. Her jokes are the worst- they never make sense. Ever, like.. ever. They're so bad in fact, that it's alomst impossible to not laugh at them for their stupidity, which makes up for her lame creativity. Hanul loves making other's laugh, which is kind of a tough job when having to work for Mr. Bossman, Monster Baekhyun. What makes her most dorky is her laugh; the snorts just make it noticable, when she giggles or laughs really loud.. all of a sudden "OINK". (pfft-) It's not that much of an OINK, actually, but a snort is a snort. /shrug. How else do I explain it?.. uh- she's the type to laugh to herself randomly when she thinks of something funny that happened in the past, and the type to be super random and weird. In the morning, she'd walk into the store and probably sing to one direction, or something. LOL. A dork is a dork. There's not much of a way for me to elaborate on how dorky she is~ She's just pretty much a girl who does silly things - acting childish and immature, but still manages to work her hardest.
Gullible : As if her childish ways weren't enough, Hanul is often quite.. gullible. She's the type to take things seriously, more easily than others would. Since having a weird set of mind, being somewhat of a brainiac, but a big child at heart (one who often frolicks around with her fangirlisms), she makes others question her a lot. How can someone "smart" be so, "dumb" at the same time?; if one day, you happened to tell her that Zac Efron was outside, claiming that he wanted to see Hanul, she'd seriously get all excited and run right outside to see him. Even after making so many mistakes to take people's words, Hanul still hasn't learn anything at all. Up until now, she still believes whatever you say! If you said that you were in the guiness world record for something so utterly ridiculous, she's think you were famous. Like, seriously, she would. Hanul honestly and TRULY, believes almost every single word.. sometimes, when you're telling the truth, she'll think back to the memories of being tricked, and deny it. So, let's put it this way: a lie will sound truthful, while a lie will sound.. not. (/dies)
Optimistic : One can never be too positive! - unless of course, you're Silly-willy-Hanul, who can only think the best of things and can never, not never see the horrible and dark concequences of anything. She's the type to only see the good in things, because well, the world can be full of rainbows and sunshine and like, everything can be perfect and beautiful if you just choose to see it that way. Hanul likes to spread her optimism with everyone, because she thinks everyone should have a little faith in themselves (like she does when she tells people that one day she'll meet Lee Hyun Woo, and they'll get married and live in a beautiful hotel, frolicking around in a feild of pretty flowers.) See what I mean? Too.. like. Sure of herself. As if, nothing could ever go wrong! That's kind of the reason why, nowadays, she gets herself into trouble. But, it also goes for how hard she works to get what she wants, because she'll always push herself, because "nothing can ever go wrong". As much as she wants to believe things can go horrible, and that the world will end in flames, she just can't. She can't. She prefers to stay positive and think positive, and holy freakin' act positive.
