PERSONALITY ♡
— ( + ) analytical, adaptable, eloquent, dependable, blithe / ( - ) overcritical, discourteous, argumentative, disorganized, delicate
at first glance, i'm a hundred percent sure you would think soreun's a self-critical or pessimistic kind of person at first glance. her facial expressions are unpredictable, gloomy, and doesn't show much or even a little of her color — like it seems that she's a melancholic android. she is labeled as daehwan academy's 'cold city hostess', and everyone in the student body thinks likewise. although, you've got it all wrong. once you get to know her further enough, you'd know that she is an extremely logical person, and will avoid anything that has to involve with mythical or imaginative reasonings, ["the answer is always in the book... somewhere."]. she will try to find a logical explanation and debate with herself when it comes to fantasy-genred movies that she unlikely watches alone, ["but, but, but, how?]. it's assuredly rare to see her suddenly freak out, because she can adjust to a variety of different and new conditions. whether it's a professor giving her a low test score, or either her friend being hospitalized; she will keep her calm and not overreact over simple or complex situations, [/silently plays with her phone/ uh, yeah, that's great.] other than that, she's pretty well-known for her persuasive and effective way of talking or writing. i mean, she expresses a lot more once she has a right to speak up or through writing even though her facial expressions are rather inaccurate. she's consistently doing a top notch job when doing presentations in front of the class; that's why her father often invites her to the company with the purpose of doing 'test' presentations for her upcoming duty, and she nails it every time that it's sob-worthy to the lesser mortals. with that being said, she is the type of person you can put your trust into when asked to do a certain thing. whenever there are people who asks her to do this and that, she'll definitely curl her hands into a fist with a 'hmph' of determination plastered on her face, ["ooooh! i'll get it done right away."]. this is also the oblivious reason why people takes advantage of her. despite her cringingly reactionless expressions, she is considered as a joyous person who shows the slightest of concern on a particular problem. she does a few things freely or rather carelessly when not given any choices, ["just paint it a pretty baby blue color."]. oh, but wait a moment! she's apart of the 'rich, spoiled, immensely stunning' gang of the gangs, and by gangs, i meant the host club. daaaarling, your so-called princes and princesses are not always charmers that fell from the melodic heavens. soreun is fond of analyzing anything that exists in this goddamn earth whether it's alive or dead, and she won't keep it short whatsoever — by that, she's a person to criticize everything from a to z, ["this blueberry jam is quite bitter, don't you think so?"] even if it's a person, a brand, food, et cetera; she will find the precise words to describe her feelings towards it. she learns it from her mother who until now, still comments on the littlest of things by arguing with her also, critical daughter. of course, her being raised upon an extremely wealthy family has its effects. she shows a lack of consideration for other people, so that means she doesn't really give the slightest , complemented with her adaptable and blithe side that basically turned her into a person who does not care at all. and with her considered as a senior, she completely has no boundaries when it comes to respecting her little dongsaengs; she goes freely with them, and probably lets them talk informally. she also has the tendency to show a unnecessarily impolite and rude outcome, [i don't want to go to your wedding party, so have fun, i guess?]. with the monotone expression she carries on until the end of the world and its reconstruction, you wouldn't think that she is practically a person to express divergent conculsions when people find her in the wrong, she will try her absolute best to fight for her own dignity, ["seriously, though, the answer is 332y. here, let me show you how to count."]. in each day, i'm utterly sure she'd open with an argument whenever there's a certain problem within the society around her. although when defeated, she will remain silent and seated with an bitter-looking expression. you may think that she's soon-to-be-businesswoman type of person who basically knocks down all that's in her way and manages to finish her tasks precisely on time, but she's not like that. the girl is defiantly unable to plan something efficiently, [uh — i don't have any panels, so i'm going to clarify what i've researched so far."]. of course, her presentations are invariably spot on, but that's because she doesn't really prepare anything in the beginning and just goes for it without hesitating. uhm... you're planning to hurt her in both words and physics? please step out of the police line! no, you really should not because the female is extremely easy to damage; she's fragile and has emotional breakdowns every now and then. she will cry once you break her fragile heart, and believe me, she cried three days in a row after taekwoon broke up with her even if she doesn't have a thing for him. if you're her close friend, beware. she's the type of person to pour out all of her uneasy feelings and won't shut up about it for at least an hour. anything that basically makes her heart tingle in an unpleasant way — boys (and technically, girls), family issues, school or academics, et cetera. she'll also cry out her feelings whilst telling the backstory to it. |

THERE'S MORE TO YOU THAN MEETS THE EYE...
PAST ♡
once upon a time, there lived an semi-adorable and semi-horrific couple who lived in daejeon, south korea. im ahyeon was the daughter of a man who worked in one of korea's top notch companies, which was the largest telecommunication networks and services provided for those who use SEOSAT. once ahyeon was promoted into a further level than her father's, and eventually, she was promoted to an even higher level to become the CEO of the company to replace the previous one. at that time, she was already married to a strict and political man named im hajoon. he was an accountant for the same company with the CPA score of ninety four. impressive, eh? a few years after their marriage, a hiccuping baby was soon to be born on the thirteenth of september, nineteen ninety six, specifically at the towering and bustling hospital in jung district, daejeon, south korea. ahyeon and hajoon had planned the arrival of this baby for at least two years. they had always wondered if it was a male or a female and literally listed out five names per gender. in between of the short list was 'soreun' and the both of them decided on this ridiculous yet distinctive name. as a baby, the first words she spurted out was, ["milk, mami, milk."], when ahyeon was undeniably a busy wreck and hajoon was clearly dumbfounded by the whole parental thing that he had to do all by himself. at that time, ahyeon had confirmed details to open a company in the capital of china, beijing. oh, she felt the undying pressure, alright. another few years passed by, and soreun had a two-year-old brother named sanghyuk, ["hyukkie is so, so, so cute, mommy! i want to pinch his nose all day.], which was the continuous sentence she said every span of five minutes. the family was also going to move in beijing for quite awhile because of obviously, ahyeon's project. soreun was taken to a local elementary school to become indulged in education, well, that was what her father said. to be honest, she didn't understand a word at her first day of school.. everything was just so foreign. approximately four years later, she started to get a hang of it, the language, the culture, and everything else. but wait! she was scheduled to move back into korea as SEOSAT CHINA was officially opened for business. so much for the excessive research and pointless social activities.
let us cut all of the unnecessary scenes from her obnoxious nine year-old self to the highlight of her, probably, entire life; which was her preteen days being thirteen years old and surprisingly not bratty as she was going through puberty. it was her second year attending seoho middle school and she was placed in a randomized class. after eleven months of adapting in the class, she finally took notice of that quiet kid sitting behind her. ["oh, hi."], she struck a convo. ["...hello to you to?"], he stated in a medium volume. ["good day, isn't it?"], she inquired and the other only shook his head. ["uhm — i like the scent of your hair. what shampoo do you use?"], and they immediately clicked.
a year later, soreun graduated from seoho middle school with an overall satisfying report card as her parents got her into daehwan private academy without any difficulties and of course, without listening to her voice of thought. yes, she was glad to be accepted in daehwan, although taekwoon wasn't going to attend daehwan alongside her, and the news surely devastated her. once she finally took her time to settle in the eminent academy that is way too goddamn familiar by walking across the hallways to observe arrogant, good-looking, and filthy rich inhabitants of the school. unfortunately, she was one of those inhabitants as well. many, many months later, with soreun and taekwoon's friendship gradually growing tighter by every minute, taekwoon decided that they should expand their relationship a bit — an experimental experience, nothing more. okay, so it may or may not be just an experiment. they lost both of their ities in their second month of 'experimentally' dating. who could've blamed them, though? they were pretty and sick; young and bored.
although the relationship they had was extremely awkward and uncomfortable as taekwoon lived a few blocks away and wasn't even in daehwan. not only that, but it seemed awkward overall: how they made out, how they clinged obsessively onto each other, how they type 'babe' at the end of every text message. it was sort of unnatural, and their relationship was just an experiment so taekwoon decided to break it off. after a not-so-tragic breakup of the two, she was suddenly offered to join the school's host club by Clair, the manager of that particular club. soreun was the full package; she was undeniably gorgeous, she was powerful in wealth, and she knew how to woo a regular with her expressive talking. at first, she had the intention to become one of the school's many hosts, and disjoin at the end. however, it seemed that she cannot escape.
PRESENT ♡
soreun is currently living in the largest victorian-styled mansion in her neighborhood. she moved from daejeon and is residing in yongsan district, seoul, because her parents felt like they should move for the reason both of their children were receiving education in seoul. everyday expect saturdays and sundays, she is drives to school with her brand new black BMW, and her habit is to ask if sanghyuk wants a lift, but he always prefers taking a normal bus ride for some idiotic reason. it seems that she's constantly seen arriving fashionably tardy, although she doesn't give a lot of mind to it, unlike the dilligent scholarship students who goes crazy when late for class. as a student, her grades are significantly good and she's basically a prodigy in presentations plus exams. however, she's defiantly not a prodigy in homeworks as the girl is lacking in preparation. she isn't the type of person to fuzz around about education, but she does pay attention to the teacher and what he or she's saying.
after the excruciating hours of classes and chatters, soreun likes to secretly hang out at the greenhouse and water the cactuses plus the magenta snapdragons. she is always fond of greenhouses and its atmosphere — it just soothes her heart whether it's swollen or not. once finished watering, she dutifully heads over to the host club to well, do her host club shenanigans. whenever the host club's activities are completed, she would stick around a bit longer and have small talk with the other fellow hosts. when she's at home, her daily routine involves reading an outdated novel and overfeeding her pet rat. other than that, she doesn't really do anything else besides studying, although she doesn't study all the time.
soreun is cursing to herself everyday because wow, she's in an extremely severe trainwreck. probably, maybe, she doesn't fully comprehend the situation. recently, she's been taking interest in a particular person. a female, a really pretty one, to be precise; her name is sojin, and that's basically the only thing soreun knows about her. the female isn't a regular (or shows any interest in the host club) and is a year younger than soreun. when it comes to the redhead, soreun's a little bit insane even though she doesn't want to acknowledge her obvious crush for the younger. the only conversation they had was when sojin was looking for her friend in the host club and soreun answered her with a 'nope'. she thinks it's a one-time thing that'd never happen again, but really now?

YOU'RE NEVER ALONE...
FAMILY ♡
— father / im hajoon / 54 / SEOSAT's lead accountant / stiff, intellectual, optimistic, impatient, self-indulgent
due to her mother's duty as a CEO, soreun was left to be taken care by her father in his klutzy yet lovable ways of parenting almost all the time. he thinks that soreun is his perfect little child, although she despises being called a child. their relationship is quite laid-back and nonchalant because of course, hajoon has 'businessman' written all over his face, even at home when he's wearing his ridiculous grey bunny slippers. they often share conversations about school and what kind of gossips are happening between the host club — he always laughs for some reason, ["why the hell did that kid suddenly confesses to him. really, now."]. she also likes to visit the old man's office and drop off a pre-heated packaged ramyeon, and he wrinkles his nose everytime this daily routine occurs. — mother / im ahyeon / 50 / SEOSAT's powerful CEO / purposeful, judgemental, empathetic, narcissistic, adventurous
even though she didn't fully grow up with a mother by her side to properly feed her milk, soreun and ahyeon are very, very compatible. she doesn't really get to see ahyeon that much because of work, although when ahyeon finally gets a day off or at least come home a little bit earlier, her daughter would always prepare some sort of simple meal. their relationship is vaguely more like close friends rather than the typical mother and daughter relationship. ahyeon slightly doesn't approve of soreun joining the host club, but she throughly remains silent and doesn't react much to her daughter's doings. — brother / im sanghyuk / 14 / third year in middle school / callous, indolent, noisy, creative, possessive soreun and sanghyuk's relationship is somewhat very, very otherwordly and odd and all things insane, probably. ever since they were children, soreun has the habit to act all clingy and be an annoying and pestering older sister when she most certainly does not do this to anyone else except sanghyuk. as for sanghyuk, he's a hundred percent fed up with her. everyday, their interactions would mostly involve soreun knocking on sanghyuk's door while he answers, ["i'm jackin' off right now. go away."], when he's actually initiating a marathon of sherlock bbc with a side of popcorn and grape soda. for some reason, sanghyuk isn't really fond of his older reason. to be honest, he doesn't have a reason at all. unbeknownst to soreun, her little brother does have some sort of attentive eye for her, just the slightest, though. FRIENDS ♡ — best friend & ex-boyfriend / jung taekwoon / 19 / individualistic, dynamic, witty, dishonest, kind of pretentious
soreun and taekwoon have been friends for over a thousand decades or they think it's been so long that it's practically uncountable? hah, just messin' around. well, i guess that's seriously the accurate definition of their relationship; they like messing around with each other by being complete idiots. they don't share a whole lot of interests, but they seem to have clicked so well, and that's quite unbelievable. their interactions and conversations mostly involve dreams: soreun's dreams, taekwoon's dreams, that person's dreams, everyone's dreams. they also like to have a silent evening whilst taekwoon is drawing a replica of the sunset. — friend / baek yerin / 17 / whimsical, eccentric, aloof, disruptive
they have been friends for not a long ago, eh, probably met at the first semester of soreun's second year in daehwan. at first, soreun didn't find the slightest interest to befriend the yerin or did she ever recognize yerin even if her barbarism stood out through the entire school grounds. but then, yerin was the one to approach the older, stabbing her ears with headphones. that's how they became friends. and i guess, their undying love for punk rock music will eternally go on. — long distant buddies / lu han / 18 / humorous, clear-headed, frivolous
luhan was the only person to approach her when she lived in china. surprisingly, they became friends without any difficulties (unless it's about soreun's fluency on the particular foreign language). as she was heading back to south korea, they decided to exchange phone numbers and well, they now exchange skype accounts. soreun always finds time to skype call luhan or vice versa, basically. they talk about life and what goes on beyond it. she mostly likes to tell luhan about the problems she faces and trusts him because he's a goddamn saint. — taekwoon's bastard of an older brother / jung taekhyun / 23 / egocentric, truculent (?)
soreun honestly doesn't know much about him and she will not learn anything about him because taekwoon clearly warned her about his semi-delinquent nature. taekwoon doesn't even want to talk about him or to him so meeting him screams 'death is near! run away!'. however, she's a little intimidated by taekhyun's lifestyle and what how he interacts with taekwoon when she's not around. |
 park sojin。
FACE CLAIM ♡ park sojin (girl's day)
— gallery
NICKNAMES ♡ — ineo / this name specifically means 'mermaid' in korean. people around the academy likes to call her this because everything about her reminds them of ariel; her hair color, her overall body structure, and of course, her melodic slash raspy singing voice.
— p.s / this is an abbreviation of her real name plus surname. at first, her close friends call her this as a joke, but somehow, they carried on with the ridiculous acronym or name.
♥ her grades are pretty much average and not expected from a daughter of a pair of biologists. ♡ " i hope you can chase your own happiness. " ♡

soul(mate) searching。
SURELY YOU HAVE THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE...
FIRST MEETING ♡
(this will happen in the future a.k.a the story. they haven't met yet if you exclude soreun's stalker-ish eyes lololol.) soreun and sojin secondly encountered each other at the greenhouse (first being when sojin was looking for her friend at the host club, but they merely talked so that wasn't considered as a proper meeting), the place soreun usually went to before heading over to do her host club duties. she saw sojin sitting by the row of venus flytraps, admiring them with such graceful eyes. soreun only stood there (hyperventilating inside, basically) as the other said her greetings informally, which was cute. they talked about the different variety of plants. soreun was just fond of cactuses and snapdragons whilst sojin had the knowledge of greeneries. [why haven't i noticed this place before? it's absolutely wondrous.]. the redhead said with a grin plastered on her face. she seemed to really like the greenhouse. RELATIONSHIP ♡ their relationship rapidly grows into a blooming friendship after a few other encounters. they become more comfortable with each other, and they begin to exchange a lot of variable interest as well. in all honesty, soreun doesn't quite apprehend her feelings for the girl — it just happened so fast, you know, her friendship with sojin. the two mostly hang out at the greenhouse while taking care of the plants at the same time. as expected, sojin doesn't really open all the time, and soreun's always the one to start conversations even though she''s really, really bad at small talk.
other people besides the host club doesn't know her particular closeness with sojin. and sometimes, sojin likes to visit the host club as she accepted the club bit by bit without constantly clicking her tongue everytime she goes there. oh! and half of the time, they would pretty much act all giggly, adorable, and almost couple-like with each other. the hosts are practically shipping them every now and then.
CONCLUSION ♡ when all of the fluff have successfully gone through, soreun eventually confesses to sojin by deliberately staying up all night with her stupid and unplanned decision. now, this is where i'll put the slightest of angst (and mischievously wanting soreun's delicate side to show up anytime soon /slaps self). sojin will hear out her confession, but she'll reject soreun in the politest way possible. she'll say that she doesn't see soreun as anything else but a friend, which is a hundred percent true. either way, they will still continue as close friends.
