#SEOULINTRO

[hyuklmao-blog1]

hi hello annyeong !!! i’m jeanine, 19 years old !! i respond to she/her and i live in the gmt-10 timezone hehehe ok enough about me let’s go to my bABY BOI HYUKJAE

` +⬦･ﾟ——— lim hyukjae, otherwise known as LEE JOOHEON'S doppelganger, is a TWENTY-TWO year old barista/underground rapper, known around the city for being the ICARIAN. this particular NATIVE is rumoured to be AMBITIOUS & DETERMINED, cursed with IMPULSIVE & OVERCONFIDENT tendencies, so, it might be best to stay away!  however, if you do happen to bump into this particular individual, don’t forget to refer to them using he/him & know that they identify as a pansexual cismale. 

For all his life, Hyukjae has always wanted to be on stage. He loves the rush from performing and the crowd going wild and he really feeds on that energy to keep him going. The only problem was that his parents were renowned doctors, so they expected him to be a doctor as well to continue the family business.

Which is why they didn’t take Hyukjae’s passion lightly. They initially thought it would be a phase and he would grow out of it, but instead it grew even brighter. This began to worry them as he got into high school, constantly sneaking out to go to sketchy places to perform with other rappers and meeting fellow artists like him.

One day he was finally caught by his parents and they immediately wanted him to quit rapping or else. This lead to a huge fight between them, ending with hyuk running away from his family. Since then, he believed his family didn’t want him anymore.

Since then, he’s been fending for himself. He is currently staying at a friend’s place  (wanted connection? maybe?) while he is still trying to get to his feet. He now works as a barista to pay his bills and his friend, but his passion is still strong. He still dreams of being a rapper one day and be recognized for his talent and still goes underground to rap against other artists.

Personality wise, Hyuk is kind of cocky. It’s a kind of his way of coping his family issues by projecting what he wants to show himself. He wants people to only see the good side of him, which is why he’s also not close with a lot of people. But relatively, he’s a happy-go-lucky guy just want to make it big and living his best life.

FUN FACTS

His rapper name is M.O.O.N, because he was born on a full moon.

he’s a very picky eater lmao

he loves animals !!! esp dogs !!! if u have a dog he will love u

he’s actually v smart. he’s just cocky that people think he’s talking shit

he also produces his own music!!!! and has journals filled with rap lyrics

and that’s it?? i think ??? if u want to plot just hmu !! or like this and i’ll im u

[jisungjpg]

i cannot believe i only lasted a month before bringing jisung back om g. why am i like this. anyway i am luna and i also play @minhyukwtf​. for those of u that don’t know, jisung was my first muse here and i dropped him like a month ago but i missed him so much and decided to bring him back bc i am trash. so here is his introduction in case u forgot about him/have no idea who he is!! give this a like and i’ll send u a message so we can plot!!

jisung spent most of his childhood helping out at his parent’s cafe. when he was younger he used to hate being forced into helping out because he wanted to stay home and play his brothers nintendo 64 but as he grew older he began to appreciate it more. he started to enjoy the soft and calming atmosphere of the small cafe and the strong smell of coffee in the air. he enjoyed brewing fresh cups of coffee for the locals and seeing their faces light up when they took the first sip

the cafe slowly became his whole life when he was a teenager. when he was a teen he would spend almost all his free time there either working or hanging out with friends there. the cafe was everything to him and he couldn’t wait to take it over one day.

thats why he decided to attend a business school in daegu. at first he wanted to attend one here in seoul but his parents told him to go and spend time away from the cafe for once. he reluctantly agreed and found himself living in daegu for almost three years

just as he was about to start his last year, he received a call saying that his parents were in the hospital after a robbery gone wrong. apparently his mother went to go grab the money from the register and the kid panicked thinking she was calling the police and shot both of them. he dropped out that night and got on the next train back to seoul. the doctors did all they could to save his parents but the medics arrived too late and they died two hours after he got to the hospital.

the cafe was left to him and his brother. his brother wanted nothing to do with the cafe and tried to convince jisung to sell it but he refused. the cafe meant so much to him and he couldn’t bare the thought of not being able to return to it anymore. this lead to him taking over the cafe as the sole owner

personality: despite the death of his parents, he is still a very cheerful person. he loves helping his friends and doting on them whenever he can. he just wants everyone to be happy and enjoy a good cup of coffee. he can be quite clumsy so if you’re bored and looking for something entertaining, come to the cafe right before close and watch jisung attempt to do the dishes without dropping at least 3 cups.

where he’s been since leaving: after his thing with ren ended, he was a bit fucked up by it and decided he needed some time away from seoul. he spent most of the time in venice, italy relaxing and relearning how to be himself again. now that he’s back, he’s ready to get back to the cafe and work his lil butt off.

wanted connections:

work gossip is the best gossip: someone who works part time at the cafe with jisung. even though he tried his best to run the cafe on his own, its a lot of work for one person so he needed someone to help out. the hours are decent and you get free coffee out of it so why not?

the peach to my plum: pretty self explanatory. this could be someone who’s known jisung for years or someone he met after he returned to seoul. taken by taeil 

can i get your name for the cup?: at first it was an honest mistake. jisung just heard the name wrong but now its developed into a challenge to see how many different ways he can fuck up their name until they snap.

` +⬦･ﾟ——— choi kyungjoo otherwise known as kang seulgi's doppelganger, is a twenty five year old homicide detective, known around the city for being the durable. this particular outsider is rumoured to be resilient & analytical cursed with headstrong & prideful tendencies, so, it might be best to stay away! however, if you do happen to bump into this particular individual, don’t forget to refer to them using she/her pronouns & know that they identify as a homosexual cisfemale. —— sab / 16 (imma be 17 on january 2nd tho)  / est

this is my baby choi kyungjoo i love her and want the best for her always

she grew up in jeju where her dad worked as a cop and she spent most of her time in her grandparents restaurant 

so she was originally just a cop but got bumped up to detective when she was 23 and has been working in the homicide department since then

i called her the durable because she’s a tough cookie. she always gets back up on her feet, throws herself in her work and is apathetic enough for the line of work she is in. 

but it also comes with her pride and stubbornness. she doesn’t like accepting help from people and she likes things to be done in her way. 

also she’s super gay! but also super awkward, look at a dead body, got it covered. catch a murderer, yup got it down. actually talk to a woman, she can’t do it. 

so this was super short but it covers the basics pretty well. she doesn’t have some overarching storyline rn bc i just want to focus on her character. like this for plots!

heY HI HO  !  i  ---  cay ,  the favorite local fool  ---  have made another daughter ever so lovely to absolutely hate  !  because ,  let’s face it ,  what lovable muse have i made that y’all know  ?  not jangmi  (  okay she’s kinda lovable ,  people like her  )  ,  that’s certain .  & it’s not gonna be gala either  !  bUT LOOK  !  she’s a lil bit off her rocker & i think you’ll like that about her  !  okay ,  let’s go with that  farmal  formal introduction stuff  !  as mentioned about me before , i am  the local fool  cay  !  i love  b.a.p & have you heard their recent comeback because you nEED TO  !  i also love fiestar & btob .  i’m smol & breathe fire  (  & i’m not scary i prOMISE  !  )  & i love stuffed animals & making problematic  (  AT TIMES !  )  kids  !  i hope you’ll like gala as much as some of you have liked jangmi  !

GALINA  ‘ GALA ‘  SOL.

so let me tell you about my baby girl gala okay  ?

she’s from russia .  before she was in busan ,  she was in russia & leMME TELL YOU THE KINDA ROLLER -- COASTER HER TIME THERE WAS OKAY  ?

so basically her father was the only family that really wanted her with him ,  & he had to already been nationalized in russia  (  to become a citizen ,  you know  ) .  so he had to move back to russia .  her mom ? didn’t want to move to russia & didn’t want to raise a child without the father being there with her . so she let her father take her with him .

so that’s when her parents really started to grow apart ,  but they weren’t divorced  (  yet  ) .  but she didn’t really know her mother ,  so she could care less if her mother was in her life or not . though ,  it probably would have been better if her mother was in her life more than her father .

her father worked within the span of engineering & car parts ,  but she didn’t really ever know .  her father never told her ,  even if she actually exactly asked what he did for a living .  but she did know that whatever her father did  ?  he was doing borderline illegal things ,  & she didn’t really dig into that .

she attended school up until she was nine  (  taken out by her father  )  & then began working with people her dad knew in a mechanic garage  (  so she basically learned from them , plus a lil extra  ;  she ended up learning cars  /  other things that could contribute to illegal connection  )  ---  which her father  DID  know about .

when she was ten is when she began doing illegal workings of her own within the business of her father’s friends .  she was taught heavily about cars & drugs & poisons & weapons for her safety as well as for the content involved within her work  (  which her father  ---  at that point  ---  didn’t know ,  because of his own neglect of his daughter while continuing his own work  ) .  at first ,  her work didn’t start out as intense or overwhelming as it’d become .  eventually , there came the point where she’d always be on guard & would wake at the slightest things for jobs & would be called in to jobs at ungodly hours  ;  her work consisted of obviously being a mechanic & being associated with the russian underground  /  blackmarket  /  street jobs .

her father progressively ,  gradually became more shady & private & basically pushed gala out of his life to continue with the fast -- paced work that had consumed him .  he honestly probably forgot he was taking care of his only daughter .

then when she was sixteen ,  her mother caught wind of just the surface of what was going on with her & her father & brought gala back to korea with her  (  against her will  !  )  to give her a  ‘ normal ‘  life .  gala didn’t like her mother because her mother deliberately gave up on raising her & didn’t even care to regularly check up on her when she resided in russia with her father .  she hated that her mother took her from what she knew as home & hated that her mother acted as though she knew what was best for a child that may have came out of her but wasn’t hers .

so she & her mother bumped heads a lot when gala came back to korea ,  & especially when her mother found out she wasn’t properly schooled  ?  she was livid with her father for not schooling gala & with gala for not having been educated  (  which wasn’t gala’s fault but in general was a fault in her mother’s eyes  ) .

gala doesn’t quite know when her parents divorced ,  but she’s never cared to learn .  all she knows about her parents’ relationship is that her mother is extremely hostile to her dad & anything including while her dad clearly doesn’t care .  her dad calls & checks on her more than her mother ever did when she was in russia with him .

when first got to busan ,  her mother made her take classes to educate herself because she couldn’t get to the level she was supposed to be at  ---  at that age .  but she did learn things relatively fast for her background & was able to volunteer at an auto garage  (  much to her mother’s dismay  ) .  which that really brought her back to what she was doing in russia ,  because once she started doing that ,  she started dabbling into the illegal stuff again  ?  plus ,  she ended up being like someone  /  a mechanic that was recommended to illegal racers to have their rides fixed up  /  someone that became totally immersed into the illegal turn of what her life has turned into  (  which her mother didn’t know  ) .

& that’s what she’s been doing really ever moving from busan ,  honestly .  one of her connections had a auto garage she could work at & she accepted it .  her mother had a big argument with her when she left  (  which didn’t really make gala feel guilty because she hates her anyway ...  )  & they haven’t been in real contact for a while .  her mother occasionally calls in & sends her money ,  but that’s it .  her dad calls & checks up on her  (  which she’s completely honest with him  :  daddy’s little princess  ) .  they don’t really have a healthy father  /  daughter relationship because of how he uses her & guilt trips her into sending him money & everything ,  but they have a much healthier relationship than she & her mother .

much like how it was in russia ,  she doesn’t really have a set work schedule  ?  she’ll really come in at anytime for anything .  she’s really like a ... ig wildcard  ?  a little bit of everything  ?  she does repairs ,  can help cover up crimes ,  etc  (  most of etc being in the illegal range of things  ) .  like if you call her in at three in the morning to look at a car you banged up during a race & need it fixed in like five hours  ?  just bring it into the garage & call & she’s got you !

will sprout really random ,  intricate facts about poison ,  weapons ,  cars ,  engineering ,  explosives ,  etc .  a lot of people find her kinda weird & a bit intimidating with the kinda knowledge she has & what she does .

basically living above the auto garage she works at right now .  she hasn’t really had the time or really the motivation to do anything to find a proper place to stay .

she’s twenty -- two & she’s pansexual ,  but she doesn’t really experience like sexual attraction a lot  ?  she doesn’t  NEVER  experience it ,  but it’s very rare that she does .  i’m pretty sure like ,,  cars & weapons & explosions are the things that turn her on tbqh .........  she’s really weird okay love her DSAJKSDADSA

[trishuang-blog1]

HEY YALL,, ITS BEEN A MINUTE HASNT IT LAKFJLSAKDFJASLK i have been super busy the past few months with WORK, WORK AND MORE WORK literally all i ever do is work. but it has sERIOUSLY affected my activity with tristan (and taemin) and so i feel like i have just missed out on A TON either it be w events or new members and all of that!!! so i’m just going to kind of re-introduce myself AS WELL AS TRISTAN AND TAEMIN (on his own blog) AND TRY TO??? KIND OF START OFF FRESH!!!! but any connections that i had for them prior ofc can stay like i’m not erasing that or anything!!! BUT ANYWAY. HELLO TO ANY NEW MEMBERS I HAVEN’T TALKED TO YET BC IM A FLOP. I’M NIC (paige or w/e at this point)! i play tristan and taemin and one is an angel while the other is a devil. i’ll post more abt taemin soon, but for right now i’ll give you bullet points on tristan!!! you can also click here for his full back story, here for his connections and here for his stats!! 

BELOW ARE JUST QUICK FACTS ABT MY BOY!!! BUT ALSO [!!!] TW FOR DRUG USAGE AND SUICIDE. JUST FOREWARNING.

tristan is 24 years old!! recent (not so much anymore) new resident within seoul

honestly he has no idea what the hell he is doing with himself or his life, he just knows that he needed a change of scenery desperately and after coming to seoul during a study abroad semester in college, he decided to officially move there a little bit after his graduation!!!

he has been living in seoul for almost a full year now!!!

but he was born and raised in new york city though!! he is very much used to the city life and prefers it.

he has a bachelors degree in photography and managed to nab himself a job as a lead photographer of a local magazine located within seoul.

he went through some traumatic things in nyc that led him to moving to seoul. he had a rough time with his teenage years and fell into a bad crowd. got mixed up with drugs and alcohol and got in trouble quite often with the law as well. he didn’t really get his shit together until he hit college, but even then he was still dealing with a bad smoking habit and dabbling in drugs every once in awhile, as well as drinking excessively with friends.

it wasnt until tristan’s freshman year of college though, when he was 19, that he really took a bad turn. his father committed suicide and completely threw his entire world for a turn. he went into a really bad depressive state where he just did everything he was doing ten times harder until he finally burnt himself out and forced himself out of it.

he did that with the exchange student program and studying overseas in seoul for a semester!!! it got him out of new york, got him away from his home and all the darkness there, and got him away from the crowd he had gotten caught up with!! seoul kind of helped him restore himself and get his mindset back to where it needed to be

he came home and worked his ass off in college to graduate with his bachelors, spent about half a year after that trying to find a job in new york besides saying fuck it and then moving to seoul!!! and that’s where he is now!!

he’s pretty to himself for the most part! he is very nice, and can easily talk to people if needed by him bc sometimes it comes with the job, but other than that, he doesn’t really bother with speaking unless he feels comfortable w the person!! and then they’ll get to see his lil sense of humor and personality more

he is literally just an angel boy with a really good heart that has been broken a couple times by his family (his back story goes more in-depth about that) so he is both HARDENED TO THE WORLD BUT ALSO SO SOFT ABT IT HE’S HARD TO EXPLAIN ASDLKFJASDLKF

he is doing the absolute best that he can!!! he doesn’t know what the hell he is doing in regards to his future but he takes things day by day and actually genuinely likes his job and has made great friends and LOVES LIVING IN SEOUL SO IM ROOTING FOR HIM AND I HOPE OTHER PPL ARE TOO!!!!

#seoulintro #its been 84 yrs but i still love u all sm with my entire heart and i miss u all too #im probably going to end up dropping a majority of threads #save like A FEW #and starting over w tristan!! #so if you like this post ill take it as you wanting a starter or to plot if we havent yet!! #taemins post will come tomorrow!!

[tcemins-blog]

SO HERE IS TAEMINS NEW INTRO FINALLY!!! majority of what’s underneath the read more is the same from his old original post, just w some things edited or added in! BUT AGAIN. HEY. IM NIC (paige or whatever u wanna call me tbh). I ALSO PLAY TRISTAN. this is taemin. he’s an asshole who sometimes does good things depending on the alignment of the planets and if he woke up to cool things on twitter. if not then he won’t be nice. just like with tristan’s post!! if you give this a like i’ll throw a little random starter out for you from taemin!! and if you wanna plot WE CAN TOTALLY DO THAT TOO like as long as you know what you’re signing up for with him!!! his stats can be found here and his connections here!!!

taemin was boRN AND RAISED IN SEOUL so he’s been here his entire damn life. he’s comfortable here. doesn’t really have much of a want to go anywhere else. seoul is where most of his influence and power is anyway so he’s kinda like why the hell would i leave????? this is My Place.

he’s a total rich boy from a rich family who spoiled him rotten and gave him everything he wanted so he’s a little entitled sometimes even though he doesn’t actively flaunt his money around (he’s actually kind of a cheap sktate w his money)

his father owns a huge international line of luxury hotels that are literally all around the world and his mother is a pretty well known in the fashion industry as well as interior design. they are literally everywhere and have more money than they know what to do with

taemin decided to work at the radio station bc he literally had nothing else to do with his life and his father knew the owner and got him the job

so he’s been working at the radio station he’s in now since he was young, just doing part time stuff until he finally got his chance and took on a show that was at the really odd ball mornings where not many people listened in but his habit of talking about anything any everything that comes to mind and speaking his mind gOT HIM SOME ATTENTION

THEN HE GOT MOVED TO A MORE REGULAR TIME AND THEN TOOK OFF FROM THERE

his radio show is more heavily around idols and the entertainment business and just talking about it and giving gossip and shit but he became super well known for his blunt commentary and the sheer fact that he will drag anyone and everyone just to get more views and get a reaction, even if its wrong

anonymous tip lines are his fav, he’ll take that shit and eat it up and spin a story if need be

think of him as TMZ but on the radio and just w his soothing and cool voice to drop all the details and drama :’))))

he also has a habit of being very convincing and manipulative with it all, but most of the time he’s usually right about things, because he calls them like he sees them and he was just gifted w the ability to see through bullshit ig so???? in his head if someone is gonna be that bitch to Say The Truth it’ll be him he aint got no issues and he’ll sleep just fine at night

people either???? love him or hate him???? but most respect him in the entertainment field bc he’s done some damage to careers with some of the shit he’s dug up and exposed

BESIDES HIS ABILITY TO BE CRUEL AND TERRIBLE TO THE WORLD IF UR JUST A NORMAL CIVILIAN HE ACTUALLY ISN’T ALL THAT HORRIBLE???? he’s generally very easy to talk to (bc its literally his job to talk) but at the same time if he doesn’t like you he will make sure you know

he is an open book rip he will straight up say what he is feeling and won’t think twice about it which can be a little unnerving sometimes but it’s just how he is designed as a peRSON HE CAN’T HELP IT HE HAS NO FILTER WHATSOEVER. HE WILL SAY FUCKED UP THINGS. I PROMISE YOU.

he’s v work-oriented and is always on his cellphone and drinking caffeine and coffee and stressing about other peoples problems and making them his business so he’s a whole handful to those who actually wanna bother with him but I PROMISE HE’S GOT GOOD QUALITIES!!!! YOU JUST GOTTA,,,, LOOK PAST THE PETTY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM HE HAS

just love him ok

or dont because he’s a fucking asshole

#seoulintro #my trash son who never wants to let me write w him and wants to be difficult at all times #I LOVED HIM. I DO LOVE HIM DEARLY #I FUCKING HATE HIM THOUGH. I DO.

♥♥ hello....is it me you’re looking for? yeah...most likely not lmfao i’m so bad at this. ANYWAY, hello everyone, i go by the name of jay, she/her pronouns, sue me for being legal & not having a life outside of shinee. which brings me to the next point --- my ult groups being twice & shinee. momo and key biased. i’m a music hoe, love the color pink, and occasionally i do that writing thing....not really. i have a thing for female rappers, and i’m a little bit over the top sometimes uhmmmm idk what else to say about memeself. oh yeah, i love memes ;). anyways, i love plotting. since i have nothing else to say about me i’ll just talk about this piece of...i mean...lovely creation i have here, for about a year or so...whom you will probably either hate or love as a person. if you want ya world rocked click da link. 

trigger warning: this character has been through a lot & i’ve included very minor mentions of some of those things. nothing is in depth. however, my intentions are not to trigger anyone. some warnings, brief mentions of child abuse, sexual harassment, drug abuse, homophobia and depression.

jinyoung, or as i like to call him, jin of the young, was born in daegu 5 minutes before his twin brother jung (who unfortunately will not be making an appearance in this rp as they need to spend time apart). the day was march 22 making his sign none other than that of aries....feisty.

okay, now on a serious note sorry haha.

after the twins were born, their mother suffered from postpartum depression which, early on caused a lot of issues for their family since she refused to get help for a while. even later on in their life, it really showed that the woman just wasn’t ready or fit to be a mother due to her own personal issues.

for the most part things were normal and maintained, until the twins started to really develop their own distinct personalities. jinyoung was really quiet growing up, he developed his speech at a slower rate than most kids and mostly just kept to himself, but his brother was opposite being pretty rambunctious himself, and attention seeking. 

as the two grew older, their mother started to notice that jung’s personality traits were a lot more stereotypically feminine, which she didn’t approve of and as a result inflicted multiple forms of mental and sometimes physical abuse on him. jinyoung felt useless just standing by and watching, but there wasn’t really much he could do to help his brother. it still bothers him that he hardly said anything about it back then. 

eventually, their parents started having arguments about their differing opinions on jung’s behavior and preferences. jung was the main thing they argued over, so much so that they hardly paid any attention to jinyoung at all. even though it made him feel guilty, he craved the attention of his parents, and sometimes even resorted to acting out in school, opposite to his true nature. even then, the couple hardly had time to worry about jinyoung when the focus was on jung. 

when the twins were 12 years old, their parents split up. jung went with their father while jinyoung lived with his mother. despite his father’s requests not to do so, their mother chose to move far away, as in out of the country to the united states, where jinyoung spent the rest of his youth. 

due to a lack of money and a newfound addiction to drugs, jinyoung’s mother moved them into a neighborhood that wasn’t the best. in school, jinyoung didn’t fit in much. for one, his english proficiency wasn’t very up to par, and his personality traits just weren’t very appealing to those around him.

for the most part, from the age of 13 and up, jinyoung had to take care of himself. he taught himself how to read and speak english outside of his school lessons, and once he finally did get involved with a group of kids they were the wrong ones. 

no matter how much misbehavior jinyoung partook in, his mother didn’t pay him any attention. she spent her time paying attention to whatever men she was dating at the time, most of which harassed jinyoung in more ways than one, sometimes even in a sexual nature. 

over his teenage years, jinyoung dabbled in plenty of jobs in order to take care of himself, some of which were illegal, and most of them which he was coerced or forced to do. 

when he was eighteen, jinyoung came home to find that his mother had overdosed. he wasn’t sure how to feel about what had happened, and the thought still sits in the back of his mind. 

even if he didn’t show it, jinyoung didn’t really have much hope for his own life until his brother happened to move to the city and helped him get back onto his feet a bit. after being diagnosed with clinical depression, he has received treatment and therapy, although he still struggles at times.

today, jinyoung works with teenagers because he remembers how he felt and what he experienced while he was in the age group. he’d always had an interest in art, comic books, and animation so art was an obvious option for him as opposed to other things. 

despite his seemingly nonchalant and stoic nature, jinyoung is quite a different person when it comes to his students. he enjoys watching them grow, and is a beloved teacher to whatever student body he brings his work to. in other words, he has a soft spot for the youth. 

so how did jinyoung end up in seoul when he lived in new york for most of his life? currently, he happens to be taking part in a cultural curriculum program, bringing him back to his home country to teach students abroad. 

it’s been a while since jinyoung has been home, his korean has its faults after many years, however he still is able to fluently converse. 

overall, jinyoung has been through plenty. he can be very pessimistic, and blunt --- on the outside. however, he has a very silly side, and is a loyal friend and a caring person.
