The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

Taejong is a spunky person who usually has a smile on his face and likes to have fun and be energetic. The only issue with this is it doesn't usually fit with the image he is supposed to portray, so he usually only acts like that at home where he knows that he can be himself.

Because of his upbringing he can be harsh when he needs to be, and has been told that his personality can be like a switch and sometimes it's a little scary. He doesn't mean to be harsh or raise his voice when the situation doesn't call for it, but he can't help it when he needs to get a point across or needs to make sure he is being heard.

When he is with his family he tries to be a good father, but because of his unsually long business trips he does feel a little left out of the loop but tries to make up for it whenever he can. Despite his upbringing he isn't like his father and makes sure not to act like it, wanting to be an example to his children and not something for them to fear or deter from.

Despite his children being a little more difficult than others, he does put his foot down when needed and makes sure to do what needs to be done when it needs to be done. He usually lets Anastasia do most of the discpline since she's really good at handling the kids, but he steps in when he needs to or when she needs him.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each. The Kang Clan is a family of very wealthy South Koreans that acquired their money though questionable means. No one knows how they came to their wealth, but no one bothers to question the powerful tycoons. It's still a mystery, but most believe the family makes up its own mob. Being the youngest sibling of an older brother and sister, Taejong didn't have as many responsibilities as his older siblings yet he still had a level of expectations put onto him from his parents.

Taejong was softer and more laidback than his siblings, especially his oldest brother Min-Joon who was a perfect model of their father. He was raised to take over the family business and his older sister Ae-Cha was raised to be a model CEO and woman like their mother, while Taejong was mostly left to himself save for the usual parenting styles of his parents molding him to represent the family.

Taejong's first sign of magic was when he was at dinner with his family, and he didn't want to sit prim and proper while eating spaghetti, and he got so angry that the table split in two. Of course, his parents were glad he wasn't a squib, but he was reprimanded of course. His parents made sure to keep Taejong in line, but he was so obstinate that after awhile they mostly gave up when he went off to college.

During college he got the idea to use the money he would inherit and have access too to make clubs instead of using it for... Other methods like his family usually used it for, not wanting to be a total criminal but also wanting to have a little fun with his money so he took a different route with his money and set up a successful clubbing chain, Seesaw Clubs.

His family was a little upset with this since his father wanted Taejong to join their little... Gang, of sorts but Taejong refused but would help his family if they needed it. He learned to keep his family out of his dealings, and made sure not to let anyone know that the clubs sometimes were used for under-the-table dealings, but hey? A man had to get some money somehow.

It was at one of these clubs that he met Anastasia. She was not wealthy like his family, but her personality more than made up for it. The spunky girl from America stole his heart and soon became part of the Kang Clan herself. Taejong loved Anastasia and couldn't have been happier to marry her, and his family was pretty accepting of the American,

A few years down the road, Anastasia became pregnant with triplet boys. Wanting to commemorate all the cities where she and Taejong had their first milestones (first date, first kiss, and engagement), she named the three boys Daegu, Seoul, and Daejeon. After the triplets, she had a baby girl Heeyeon. Suddenly having fun wasn't as important as those four crazy kids, but Taejong loved them and each one filled his heart more with joy.

Taejong has taken a higher position in his family's business and flies to Korea when needed, usually being gone for months at a time to have to close business deals and deal with shady people and the like, but he's always happy to return home to Italy to his family.
