YOU CAN ALSO CALL ME, Hwajeon
OTHER NICKNAMES?
>
화전 - hwajeon - right from the moment Pauline got her first bite of the small, sweet pancakes her host mother made to welcome spring, she fell in love. She continued to pester her host mother to teach her the recipe so that she could bake them for herself. Her obsession with the pancakes lead to her host family giving her the nickname Hwajeon, after the pancakes, the name kind of got stuck since it's easier for non-westerners to pronounce.

OKAY, NOW LOOK OVER HERE!
ulzZANG: park Hyemin - Pony

BACK-UP ULZZANG: Eun Gyeong

HEIGHT & WEIGHT: 154 cm & 40 kg
APPEARANCE:  Pauline prefers to keep her hair on the shorter side to keep it out of her face when she's baking and because of it's length it tends to form soft curls on its own. A few weeks after Pauline first came to korea she dyed her hair a straweberry blonde colour as a kind of rebellion against the usual black east asians tend to bear, and she has kept it that colour ever since. Because of Pauline's very indoorsy hobby her skin is more on the paler side of the spectrum, something that was never appreciated before she came to korea. overall pauline doesn't have very striking features; she's a very pretty girl, what with her button nose, soft eyes and overall petite stature, but she can easily blend in in a crowd.
STYLE: pauline's way of dressing is light, frilly and with as much pastel as possible. She loathes pants, instead preferring to wear skirts or dresses and maybe the occasional pair of shorts. She loves dressing up and makes sure to always be dressed in a way that would not have her embarrassed was she forced to walk down the runway like some of the resident models. She also tries to wear heels as often as possible since she feels she disappears because of her short stature, but she also favors cute ballet flats.

DAMN, YOU'RE GOOD. WELL THEN...
 
"A great many things can be resolved with kindness, even more with laughter, but there are some things that just require cake."
 
personality:  Hwajeon lives with the firm belief that the quickest way to anyone's heart is through their sweet tooth. Therefore she strives not only to make as many sweet things, but to also be as sweet as possible.
 
 Pauline is a soft-spoken soul and rarely makes a big spectacle out of herself; she only says exactly what she has to and prefers to show her emotions or affections through gestures. She has a tendency to sit quietly and may appear to be shy, but she is actually an extremely cooperative and patient person, it's just that most of the time she prefers being by herself. She's an introverted person and being around people for too long exhausts her. This is perhaps why she started baking in the first place. From a very young age she would stay inside and bake instead of playing with other children. It worried her parents; perhaps their daughter being adopted had lead to her feeling estranged from other children, but Pauline assured them that she was fine, that baking made her feel creative and happy, and that nothing brought her more joy than seeing people's faces as they tasted her treats. Pauline has a positive spirit and a lot of enthusiasm, often staying focused on a recipe or decoration for hours on end while forgetting about everything else around her.
 
Hwajeon is a very sweet girl; she wishes for nothing but good for everyone around her and is dead set on making the world a better place through her just accords. And if you ever need comfort this girl will offer it in the form of warm hugs and baked goodies. But don't get the wrong idea! She is not all soft and delicate, and is definitely not an easy target. To those who truly know her it is nothing new that she can at times display a cruel two-faced quality, and even though she's seldom intentionally malicious, she has a nasty habit of letting out quick-witted and hurtful comments if she is provoked. She is especially prone to this sort of behavior when she feels she has been wronged or hurt by others. She's not one to let other's get away with cruelty, whether it is directed at her or somebody else. She's known for planning elaborate and clever schemes of revenge on people she feels deserves it, and the almost crazed look she gets when she's planning something is very effective in getting others to assist her in her pursuit off justice; lest they be on the receiving end of her punishments. (She might be a fragile little flower, but she'll kick your ing .)
 
Pauline is very strongly driven by her emotions and makes most of her decisions with her heart. She also possesses  a slightly skewed view of reality: She's convinced that everything she does is, in one way or another, completely justified, and once her mind is set, there is no changing it. This explains her reputation for stubbornness
 
Hwajeon finds it more or less impossible to be punctual when it comes to meeting commitments that hold little value to her, instead she puts them off until it is practically too late, and then scrambles to try to meet her deadline. Most of the time she succeeds, but when she doesn't she'll wobble her lower lip and offer a cupcake with the promise of a better result next time in order to not get into trouble; the results can vary, but in the end the cupcake usually wins people over.

Pauline Narcisse

now let's talk work
... among other things. /winks

tumblr_mn633yzMvp1rxgaoqo2_250.giftumblr_mrubhu8Nds1rdn0rdo4_250.giftumblr_mmtzos2qKw1rxgaoqo5_250.gif   "There was a mood of magic and frenzy to the room. Crystalline swirls of sugar and flour still lingered in the air like kite tails. And then there was the smell - the smell of hope, the kind of smell that brought people home."

Applying to be our baker
 With baking being more or less the only thing she's good at, it's only natural that she ought to make it her profession. Her parents have suggested her attending L'Art de la Pâtisserie, or perhaps that she opens up a pastry shop, but right now all Pauline wants to do is make people's days a little sweeter without the extra work of assignments or the responsibility of running a business, besides, she truly does enjoy being around the employees at Fashion x & co.

wait a minute, you two know each other?
friends:
> Kim minseok - Kind, lighthearted, bashful - Minseok and Pauline have become very good friends Over the years Pauline has lived with the Kims; but the age difference and the time spent living in each otehr's space has served to make them a bit more like siblings than normal friends. Not that either of them sees this as a problem; Pauline has so much fun teasing her dear minseok and Minseok puts up with it both because he's aware it's just for fun and knows all of her super ticklish spots and can therefore take revenge whenever he feels like it. But in truth they get along extremely well and often spend time talking over coffee made by Minseok and a sweet treat courtesy of Pauline. it was Minseok who insisted she applied for the job at fashion X & co. 
> Kim jongin - Dorky, sweet, charming - pauline thinks jongin is one of the most physically attractive men she has ever met, but for some reason she has never developed any feelings for him other than something akin to motherly adoration. This essentially means that she enjoys spoiling the poor boy with sugary treats that jongin is a bit too intimidated to deny, but appreciates all the same. But while jongin feels Hwajeon's slightly forceful care for him is a bit bothersome; he still finds great joy in her company and can't deny that a visit to her kitchen and a quick chat usually gives him the solution to any problem he might be facing.

rival: Luhan - pauline's just jealous because he's such good friends with Minseok, so it's not that serious, instead they kind of compete for minseok's attention(or, pauline competes for it).
enemies:
> Byun Baekhyun - Byun baekhyun, the little who thought he could run around pulling pranks on people (one of which completely destroyed the birthday cake she had worked on for four hours in order to properly celebrate Minseok's birthday) without suffering consequences. unfortunately for him he was wrong, and now he has the silent wrath of Hwajeon directed at him. pauline will get her revenge, and byun beakhyun won't see it coming.

   "Love is like a good cake; you never know when it's coming, but you better eat it when it does!"

i've noticed you've been eyeing someone...
love interest: oh sehun
relationship: Hwajeon and Sehun's relationship is a bit complicated. Or, honestly it isn't complicated as much as it is one sided. because while pauline finds sehun to be a very sweet boy (if a bit bratty, from what she has observed by his interactions with other employees), she has never managed to hold a conversation with him that lasts longer than about four words before he stutters out a goodbye and then high tails out of the room. And even if Pauline finds Sehun's behaviour amusing, she's also quite bothered by his evident discomfort; she'd like to imagine that she's not a very unapproachable person. This situation has lead her to create "operation: Get sehun to stop being scared of me so we can be bffl's instead (cause he's actually kinda cute and we'd look great next to each other ok)", which consists of a lot of pastries in decorated boxes and maybe one too many offers of free lunches.
 Sehun himself isn't really sure why someone as visually delicate as Hwajeon has him becoming such a nervous wreck, but no matter how hard he tries he can't seem to look directly at her without feeling horribly inadequate. And while he has tried to get to know her properly he has now come to the conclusion that he'd rather spare himself further embarrassment and instead just tries to avoid her.
FIRST MOVE: There's no doubt that Sehun was the one to fall first. For pauline the feelings came a bit later on, when she had finally managed to get to know him a bit and realized that he was a very charming boy.
back-up LOVE INTEREST: Kim Jongin
RELATIONSHIP: Jongin and pauline are very comfortable around each other, and often go to each other for advice. The quirk about their relationship is how Pauline insists on spoiling Jongin with treats and lunches and gifts, and even if Jongin himself would prefer it if he got to take care of Hwajeon once in a while, he allows it most of the time with the excuse  that She is older(But really he just wants free food and likes feeling like he's special to pauline)
FIRST MOVE: It was pretty mutual, they got closer and closer until they kind of fell into a relationship, they just didn't realize it. It was awfully undramatic.

one last thing... maybe?
ANY TRIVIA ABOUT YOUR LOVE INTEREST(S):
> When he's not a nervous wreck, Sehun can actually be quite funny(even if his humour is considered a bit too dumb to hold any actual comedic value, people usually just laugh at him and his existance)
> Attends University and majors in computer engineering (This fashion x-thing is mostly a fun past time and an excuse to bother jongin)
> Is secretly a huge fan of Pretty little liars (Waiting for korean subs is the bane of his existance)

DO YOU HAVE ANY CRUSHES? DON'T LIE: She may or she may not find JOngin to be so beyond humanly good looking that she contemplates his face so she could gain the eternal youth that such a face must be able to grant.
IF YOU COULD SWITCH POSITIONS FOR A DAY, WHAT WOULD IT BE? WHY?: She'd be the new head in charge. CEO Narcisse coming through; making everyone eat pastries and read books all day. because there is no such thing as too many sugar breaks.
ANYTHING ELSE?: When she was ten months old she was adopted from Busan to Cannes by a very successful author and his wife. She grew up with them in a life of luxury and expected flair. When she was 14 her parents brought up the idea of her spending a year in Korea to become more familiar with her country of birth. Pauline liked the idea and a few months later she arrived in Seoul. During her year there she lived with Minseok's family and they became very close. After the year was over she returned home, but only stayed for a year, she spent her last two years of high school in korea; again living with the Kims. When she graduated she moved out of the kim household and into a nice apartment her parents agreed to pay for. She still holds close contact with her parents, and they visit as often as they can.

oh wait, wu yifan has one more thing-- it's kris!
