[color=fff79a]Sexually active:[/color]
[sub][i]No; He poured the last six years of his life into building his reputation within the advertising company, so he never had time for a relationship. Recently, he’s been having second thoughts though[/i][/sub]

[sub][i]509[/i][/sub]

[color=fff79a]In-depth Appearance:[/color]
[sub][i]Standing at 5’11 and weighing 170lbs, Leo has a somewhat lanky build. He exercises regularly though, so while he’s on the thin side, he isn’t just skin and bones. His hair is dark and a bit on the long side by male standards, but it is almost always well-kept. He has dark brown eyes as well that appear black in most lighting. As for his wardrobe, it is divided quite evenly between business and casual. When at work, he wears suits and collared shirts, but when out with friends or relaxing at home, he wears t-shirts and jeans. He has no piercings or tattoos, as he prefers to keep his skin clear of any permanent marks. It looks more professional that way, after all.[/i][/sub]

[color=fff79a]Personality:[/color]
[sub][i][b]Compartmentalized:[/b] Leo prefers to keep his work at work and his free time free, so while he has a strong work ethic, he doesn’t let his responsibilities consume his life. Because he puts all of his thoughts in separate boxes, he is also able to prevent discouraging events from ruining his day. He just doesn’t think about them when he doesn’t feel the need to. In a way, this also has a negative effect though. He doesn’t know how to cope with his negative emotions because he ignores them.[/i][/sub]

[sub][i][b]Extroverted:[/b] Leo loves meeting new and interesting people. It’s the only reason why he goes to bars, since he isn’t much of a drinker. He is a socialite in the truest sense of the word, building relationships with as many people as he can, and maintaining deep, lasting relationships with those he cares most about. He isn’t loud, but he is proud and has quite the sense of humor, which makes him an easy person for others to feel comfortable around.[/i][/sub]

[sub][i][b]Optimistic:[/b] Leo doesn’t like to let life’s tragedies get him down. He has an infectiously positive attitude that affects almost every aspect of how he lives his life. “Every day has its ups and downs, but the ups are what matter most; Even if today went badly, tomorrow can only be better, right?” Thoughts like these are what drive him to try hard in all of his responsibilities, relationships, and hobbies.[/i][/sub]

[sub][i][b]Loyal:[/b] While Leo enjoys meeting new people and having casual banter with strangers, he is fiercely loyal of the people who matter most in his life. He gives his all to them, and he’s willing to drop everything (at least, everything he is able to) if they need him. This is a great attribute, especially for his friends, but it causes him problems when conflicts arise between the needs of his friends and the needs of his work.[/i][/sub]

[color=fff79a]Place of Origin:[/color]
[sub][i]Busan, South Korea[/i][/sub]

[color=fff79a]History:[/color]
[sub][i]Min-kyu was born in South Korea just two years before his parents became naturalized citizens of the United States. They moved to Pennsylvania with him shortly after, and this is where he grew for most of his childhood. In all, he had a fairly uneventful childhood in Pennsylvania. He went to school, made some friends, had the usual teenager angst… Through all of it, though, he developed a strong moral compass and a desire to work hard at whatever he put his mind to. So, when his family moved to New York City (he was seventeen at the time), he was more than ready to take on the competition and make a name for himself.

Min-kyu (now going by his recently acquired nickname, Leo), finished his high school education in the Big Apple and spent the following year shopping his resume around at various advertisement companies. As low/middle-class immigrants, his family didn’t have the money to send him to college, so it was difficult for Leo to find a place that would hire him, but eventually he scored a job at Crossroads Film Inc. The starting pay was low, and he was only given the measly task of holding the boom mic, but it was the stepping stone he needed to get started in the world of advertisement.

Over the next six years, Leo’s combination of hard work and creative ideas won him higher and higher positions in the company. Currently, he is working as part of the Crossroads Film Inc. advertisement think-tank, although he aspires to someday become a director within the company.[/i][/sub]

[color=fff79a]Misc:[/color]
[sub][i]While the majority of his life was spent in America, Leo can still speak some Korean, and he can read/write Hangul.[/i][/sub]

"[i]She's really creative and good at what she does. Plus, work is never boring when she's in the room.[/i]"
Leo likes having Ida around to exchange ideas with at Crossroads Film. He also thinks she's a pretty cool person and loves to listen to her tell stories, so their friendship extends beyond just the workplace.

"[i]He's a snarky little smart ass, but you gotta love him.[/i]"
Whenever Leo is in the mood for some good, sarcastic banter, Ryan is the first person he turns to. Having similar personalities, they often hang out and listen to music or watch movies. He is one of Leo's two best friends in the building.[/hider]

"[i]She's alright, I guess... Not really the kind of person I like to hang around, but Ryder thinks she's cool.[/i]"
Leo only sees Myriam around because of their mutual friendship with Ryder. He doesn't dislike her, but their personalities clash so he doesn't go out of his way to chat with her either.

| [color=LightCoral]K R Y S T A L . F O X[/color] | {[color=white]☯[/color]}
"[i]She keeps to herself a lot, so I don't really know anything about her.[/i]"
Leo has only seen Krystal around the building two or three times, and he hasn't spoken to her before. Everything about the girl (apart from her room number) is a mystery to him.[/hider]

"[i]I've seen her around. She seems pretty shy though, so I've never talked to her.[/i]"
There isn't much to say about Leo's relationship with Theresa. To him, she's just the quiet girl down the hall. He's never run into her outside of the building either, so he hasn't had an opportunity to try and talk with her before.

"[i]He seems like a cool guy. I should stop to talk to him sometime.[/i]"
Leo has seen Cameron around the building, but he's never really [i]met[/i] him before. As such, he doesn't have an opinion about him one way or the other.

"[i]She's sweet and funny and drop dead gorgeous... Totally out of my league, but I can't help but like her.[/i]"
Leo has had a crush on Atsuko for as long as he's known her. He has a hard time working up the nerve to talk to her though, because he thinks she would never be interested in a socialite like himself. It makes their encounters somewhat awkward since she's rooming with his "sister," Ryder.

| [color=bc8dbf]R Y D E R . T A L E V O S E[/color] | {[color=215435]☮[/color]}
"[i]She's like a little sister to me. Don't tell her I said that though, because she might beat me up.[/i]"
Leo thinks of Ryder as the sister he never had. He loves competing against her when working out, and he tries to keep her out of trouble when they go to parties. Overall, she's his closest female friend.[/hider]

[hider=Room 509]
| [color=deepskyblue]R E E D . R I L E Y[/color] | {[color=0050cc]♫[/color]}
"[i]He's an awesome roommate and a pretty rocking' friend![/i]"
Leo gets along well with Reed and enjoys having him as a roommate. He often finds himself covering for the wild young man when he gets himself into trouble, but he never holds it against him. After all, the crazy escapades Reed leads him into are usually worth it in the end!

| [color=fff200]M I N - K Y U . L E E[/color] | {[color=white]☯[/color]}
"[i]I'm alright, but I can always strive to be a better me![/i]"
Leo is fairly proud of who he is. Generally speaking, he doesn't struggle with either self-consciousness or overconfidence. He also doesn't like to settle and is always looking out for ways to better himself as a person.[/hider]
