The Black Grape
Description
In Seoul, South Korea, one family is above the rest. For many generations, the Mae family has been a business superpower - heralding talented and ambitious children to carry on the family tradition of being a winery. But what happens when one child threatens to break this tradition? What happens when one child discovers the family's deepest, darkest secret? What happens when this one child is you... Mae Kyungmi?
MAE KYUNGMI 19 YEARS OLD
Kyungmi is the youngest child and only daughter of the Mae family. She's a thinker, an intellectual that doesn't like to be questioned and doubted. She isn't street-smart and often runs off to books or other forms of literature to guide her on how to do things right. While she may be born into an aristocratic family, she isn't afraid to get her hands dirty or sneak her way around trouble should she need to.
PARK CHANYEOL 20 YEARS OLD
Kyungmi's one and only best friend and confidant. She tends to run to Chanyeol when her family gets the better of her. Chanyeol is easygoing, loud and a total opitimist. He rarely sees the true scale of danger or trouble that's around him, which is both a gift and a curse. He's harbored some special feelings toward Kyungmi for some time now but hasn't found the courage to confess just yet. When he wants to, he can easily sweep any girl off her feet with his killer smile and suave moves.
KIM JONGIN 21 YEARS OLD
Jongin is Luhan's friend who later has taken a liking to Kyungmi and her intriguingly different personality from the rest of the family. Much like Luhan, he's a socializer and isn't afraid to say what he thinks. He's a smoothtalker and often gets into little verbal agruments with Kyungmi over little things just to get her attention. He could be erted but he often means well.
MAE YIFAN 25 YEARS OLD
Yifan is the strict, choleric and dictatorial eldest song of the Mae family. Kyungmi's eldest brother, having a 6 year between them is not easy to please. One thing that stands out with Yifan is that he swears a lot. Really. He's not afraid to hurt other people, be it physically, emotionally or mentally. He's got, however, a soft spot for the people he's related to and cute things.
MAE JONGDAE 23 YEARS OLD
The clear-sailing, mischievous and witty second son of the Mae family as well as Kyungmi's second eldest brother. Jongdae is always both an earful and a headful of trouble. He loves popping in at random times and throwing people off-track by giving them weird nicknames and ideas for new flavors. He's a bright personality that adds color to the household. He particularly likes making fun of Yifan.
MAE LUHAN 21 YEARS OLD
Luhan is the third son of the Mae family and Kyungmi's last older brother. He is the life of the party, not in the flashy sense but rather, the subtle and cool sense. He's got a talent for steering conversations to his liking. Luhan is sly and cunning and knows what to say at the exactly the right time. He has a lot of fangirls but doesn't seem to show any interest in them, surprisingly. He likes socializing but also likes to do things at his own pace.
SONG HWAYOUNG 18 YEARS OLD
Hwayoung is the Mae siblings' cousin. She's headstrong, confident and blunt. She's one of the few that isn't afraid of what people people think, even if that person is Yifan himself. Much like Kyungmi, she's a firm believer of morals and justice and will stubbornly fight to prove her point. She's a true beauty and has a lot of suitors, though she insists that she's not interested in any of them.
