The Character's Background

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

''Seo is a quiet person when he's around those he doesn't know. He likes to observe and watch and take in his surroundings and the conversations of those around him. He tries not to give his input until he's learned enough about a person or a group of people, and sometimes he'll say one or two things to test the waters and get his bearings before trying to make friends or have a connection with someone.

Despite Seo being quiet at first, when someone gets to know him they'll see that he's actually a loud and funny individual to be around. He loves to talk, dance, sing, entertain, everything. He loves the spotlight and could talk someone's ear off all day. Seo isn't exactly a stuck-up or complete extrovert, he just feels comfortable acting like that around people he knows.

Seo has a hard time with commitment, relationship and friend-wise, because he doesn't want to put his heart out there only for it to be crushed. He usually has surface friendships and hook ups because it's not much maintenance or commitment and he can just get what he needs and not feel guilty or worry.''

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.

''Seo was the only child born to Song Gyeong and Min-Ho Park. Song and Min-Ho had a big age gap, she was 18 and he was 30 and it was a fling at her parents work party. Min-Ho wanted nothing to do with Song and the baby, but because of the expectations of those around him and his reputation he had to marry her to cover up his mistakes.

When Seo was born he was a happy, quiet baby who looked exactly like his mother. Min-Ho didn't have any care towards the child, wanting to work on his career and so he left Song alone while he went off to work late nights and early mornings. Song, being the young 19 y/o mother she was, struggled raising Seo all by herself. Eventually she had her mother move in to help, which made Min-Ho angrier.

Seo's mother was sweet and caring while his dad had a horrible temper and anger issues that he took out on Song and sometimes Seo if he was in close proximity. Min-Ho mostly screamed and argued with Song, only slapping her across the cheek and never actually beating her. This behavior lasted for 5 years while the two were together, and Seo never really knew his father except for the screaming and slapping of his mom.

Min-Ho left Song and Seo to move the company to America, divorcing her under the table and in secret as to not cause any up-roar or damage his reputation. Seo wasn't hurt by this but was angry that he was leaving her alone with Seo, and watching his father leave damaged the little boy's trust issues with anyone besides his mother.

Song moved from Korea to England to start a new life and raise Seo away from Korea and anything to do with Min-Ho, changing her legal name back to her maiden one and making Seo take on hers as well. Seo was 8 when his magic first appeared, he was so upset with his mom because he wanted to know where his father was but she wouldn't tell him, causing all the windows to shatter in their apartment.

Seo was sent to primary school up until he turned 11 and got his Hogwarts letter, which his mother was thankful for because he would make friends and be able to grow into himself.

While Seo was at Hogwarts he did open up a little more and wasn't so scared of the world, but it was still difficult for him to trust anyone completely. He was 13 when he started to trust people a little more, but then his mother met someone and got remarried while he was at Hogwarts and that destroyed him completely.

Seo doesn't hate his step-dad, Jung-Chul, as he makes his mother very happy. But Seo will never see him as a father figure, just a person in his life. Seo's relationship with his mother became strained as well, and he pulled back from her and stuck to himself. All through Hogwarts it was difficult because while he heard of the things his mother and Jung-Chul did, it made him feel more and more alone.

After graduation, Seo moved out of his mother's house into his own small apartment with the money he received from graduation. He's comfortable in his solitude now and despite the pains of his past, he's pushed his emotions down enough that he himself isn't sure if he can truly feel anything anymore.''
