𝕊pring came in like the soft brush of lips in a hesitant first kiss. The warm gentle breeze was the tale-tell sign during the otherwise harsh winter days. A myriad of pink buds against the background of grey skies after a downpour was enough to draw excitement for what was to come.

𝔼xcept for her, there was only heartbreak. Another downpour happened that day just underneath the cherry blossom tree and the crack of thunder left his cheek stinging as her feet beat against the pavement away from him in time with his intact heart. Well, mostly intact.

𝕆bviously, she had listened to tunes of her own desires, swept away by the sweet nothings of the cherry blossom’s beauty and created promises on its behalf in her own reality. Though everyone knows the life of the blossoms are fleeting, they peak after fourteen days and then fall.

𝕋wo weeks ago he warned her of the broken heart she’d get if she fell for the promise the cherry blossoms told. Two weeks ago her laughter sounded like the melody of wedding bells.

ℕow his laughter was shared over soju with the three pieces of his heart watching the cherry blossoms bloom with a crowd of others that would fall for its promises too.

The roleplay will be taking place in a fictional college town just outside of Seoul called Yeo-san. The town is full of family owned shops, and a handful of multi-national corporations (sbux, McD, KFC, etc.). The characters do not need to live in or be from Yeo-San, they can commute from Seoul, Incheon or Busan (if they want that long train ride). Milae University does not offer traditional dorms, the University has communal style apartments for students to apply to.

This roleplay will not be first come first serve. Therefore you cannot reserve roles but you will be able to reserve face claims. You may apply to more than one role with seperate character sheets. On the topic of faceclaims I will not require the use of only Korean characters for each role.

The roles are gender-locked, but everything else is left up to your creativity!

Discord will be required for participation.

There will be no posting deadlines for the rp. I hope by keeping it a smaller, and more intimate group that we all will keep each other engaged and held accountable!

Kind. Patient. Vices Overly Involved. Oblivious to her tendency to over step her bounds. Highly Emotional/Dramatic. Since Eunjung was old enough to display her personality traits it was very apparent she was naturally nurturing and kind. She immediately leaned towards mothering her dolls and forcing pets to act as patients in her nursing plays. With this came an overly emotional little girl. Often becoming overly dramatic at times. Now as a somewhat adult Eunjung still displays these characteristics. She is definitely considered the mother figure of her friend groups and among her classmates. Most people that know her know that they can come to her as a confidant and used as a shoulder to cry on and find loving support. Often times people think Eunjung is older than she is, and are surprised when she shows a bit of her more immature side. Mostly in the aspect of her reacting rather poorly when she feels mistreated or her affection isn't reciprocated. This often devolving into Eunjung delving heavily into those that don't like her and seemingly try and force a friendship out of the person. 𝓗𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝔂 ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ EunJung was born the youngest child of the Choi family, and younger sister to Seojun. Like her big brother Eunjung was raised in the lap of luxury, given whatever she desired from a young age. For a long time she came off a spoiled, having fits when she wasn't able to get what she desired at times. Currently she liked to attribute those fits to the fact she was highly emotional and she didn't know how to handle it at that age. With that said as Eunjung grew up and became a young adult she gained a better handle on her emotionals and shifted into a more nurturing and loving nature. This especially sparked from seeing the hardship Seojun experienced. She saw Seojun's life fall apart. She tried being there for him, to help him through that tough time, though at times that only put more strain on their relationship. Though she still loves him and continues to try to be there and push him towards the right path when she views him as falling off track. This at times backfiring and causing more strain between them. But Eunjung does not know what else to do, she loves her older brother and wants him to succeed and be happy. And her intentions often come off as smothering.

Whether it was going to be for good or ill, they couldn't have honestly cared less. As long as they were remembered by everyone around them, that's all that mattered. Still, they wanted to be remembered for the right reasons, so the politicians' child always made sure they were on the right side of the right people, and the right people were always the people they chose. Wanted to ask someone out? Sure, no problem, just sign here and Ji-Min would be your perfect wingman. Wanted to ask out one of the most popular kids at school?

𝓗𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝔂 ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ The main Baek family comes from a now longstanding line of politicians, with other branches now recently starting to gain footholds in the entertainment industry. Raised wealthy, but not luxuriously, Ji-Min grew up wanting nothing except for love, companionship, and guidance - all things they had to find outside of their family. Some of which they found with W4 as they laughed with them, played with them, cried with them, but ultimately never really connecting with them. At least, not in a way that satisfied the empty feeling in their chest. Still, they were fun to hang around with. For a while. Then the Scandal happened. No one outside of the main family knew what exactly happened. Nothing ever publicly surfaced that could serve as concrete proof of the Baek's crimes, and Ji-Min's father was allowed to ride out his final term as a member of the National Assembly, but rumours raged about what brought the family down. All anyone knew was that it started with an accusation of Ji-Min's parents each being a part of their own separate torrid love affairs. Ji-Min knew it was true, of course, but then so did their parents. As did their brothers and sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins. Everyone knew. Yet Ji-Min knew that together, their parents craved power, indluged in it, bathed in it, and something as silly as rumours of an affair were something they could have quashed easily. Yet they didn't. The Baeks said nothing, carried out the last terms of their more public roles gracefully, and stepped away from society. And so their fortunes came crashing down, and W4 were nowhere to be found. The only people left around Ji-Min were themselves, and their family - a family still ravenous for power.

making all this reminds me i should probably go out and get some soju. maybe some calpico to go with it.

However, his calm demeanor and reluctance to respond negatively also makes him a bit of a doormat. he tends to go along with just about whatever his parents, siblings, and friends want to do, which is how he got into the arranged marriage situation he finds himself in with The Lily. The only outlet he uses for his emotions is writing.

Being the middle child of four, Jong-Su didn't get much attention from his parents up until his preteen years, when they started having him be home schooled by private tutors so they could have an easier time teaching him about the importance of hard work, diligence, and representing the Kan name. They drilled it into him from an early age how important it was for him to keep up a good public image, even if it meant doing something he didn't want to. With his oldest sister in the running to inherit the company, Jong-Su's parents weren't fully sure what he could do to help the family, until they made a deal with The Lily's family to have him marry The Lily. Jong-Su now must decide before it's too late which is best, his parent's happiness, or his own.

Jin-Yeong is a treats everyday like a new world that is ready to be conquered. She has made it known to those she cares about that she is reliable and always out to have a good time while taking them to these crazy shenanigans that spice up her life. Jinyeong has gotten to the point where being unpredictable and impulsive is a part of her since she wants to live life with a little bit of resistance. Growing up with six brothers she was fit to fend for herself but being the only girl her parents saw no need for that so she was always pampered. It is no wonder she escapes by going off in adventures, she wants to experience the world for what it is no matter how easy or difficult it is. Oh boy, in terms of relationships, there is nothing that can keep Jinyeong still; this does not mean she goes around having flings with other people it simply means it is hard to keep her satisfied when staying at one place. She is the active type after all, she wants to enjoy life and live like everyday is her last and she wants whoever she ends up with to go along with her. She knows for a fact that being in a arranged marriage is the one thing ruining her lifestyle, maybe this was what caused her rebellious adventures in the first place? 𝓗𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝔂 ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ "If only they could see." Jinyeong was the fifth child of the Kim family, although she is still the shortest. Being born with a house full of boys really shaped her into what she is today but being the only girl it still made her more apparent to her parents. Growing up with six boys had really made her quite a queen, always having some sort of immunity due to being the only girl but also being able to hold her own even against some of the stronger brothers in the family. Being spoiled so much and watched over by her parents had given Jinyeong a type of anxiety that she could not get rid off and had tried multiple ways of curing it as best she could, with that much pressure she did not know what to do other than... Run away. Of course she always came back but she needed time away from her family to clear her head and with how she lived her life it was a few times a week depending on how long her travels were. Jinyeong made four friends that she knew she was going to spend the rest of her life with, and the adventures the Peony was already taking them definitely made her adventurous tendencies to be filled. Growing up with six brothers meant she was more on the sporty side, which meant around middle school she was already playing basketball and she wanted to try out for the team as soon as she was able to. It was around high school where she actually tried out for the women's basketball team. Joining the basketball team did put her on the radar on a lot of people making a lot of boys fall head over heels since they have not seen a girl be this good at the sport. As her popularity grew she had made a name for herself she was already given a scholarship with hopes of playing for the season as soon as she is able but it was around this time where her parents had arranged her a marriage and her world suddenly seemed gloomier than ever. She was not playing well during the season which had her coach bench her for awhile, she hated it but she knew if she wanted to keep playing she needed to deal with it, and she did the best she could. She started playing well again, she was MVP in the playoffs and as much as she hated the arranged marriage she loved playing more than she hates the marriage so she kept going. Though the best part about being Jinyeong she could just go out and run away from her problems even though it may be temporary at least she experiences a sense euphoria before having to go back into reality. The time her arranged marriage got announced was her worst season, but at the end of that season she ran away for about a week and flew to Los Angeles with one set of spare clothes, she met some people that she now calls her friends but they will never be as close as the main four. When she went home a week later her head was clear and her concerns were voiced out but her parents of course did not listen and now she had something to fight against. Now it is the present and the season does not start for awhile so she has time for herself her attempts to fight against her marriage are still there and she continues to ask her friends about it. Maybe when the stars and moon align she will have the ending she wishes for.

If it were only up to him he'd spend his day excelling at school and in his spare time either watching a crime drama, reading a mystery book, or studying criminology. Yeah, that last one is a new development as he's gotten older but he enjoys it so much that his younger siblings are betting on whether he'll become a cop or a criminal. Of course his desire is to become a prosecutor but he knows that unless his parents choose his older brother as the heir of the NY Group then that desire will fall through. Despite his disciplined behavior he does enjoy some things that most his age enjoy. This is mainly thanks to his few friends and his older sister dragging him into things until he grew to enjoy it. He enjoys the occasional party as long as laws are being followed but he really enjoys high society gatherings. Getting a chance to make connections as well as watching their attitudes and mannerisms feels like a fun game to him. He enjoys sticking to the rules but for his family and friends, he'd do a lot and go outside of the lines in order to make them happy and keep them safe. Outside of those people, if you do something he doesn't agree with he will either look down on you with disgust or if it harmed someone he cared about will do what he can to tear you down. Which is where those fancy high society connections tend to come in handy. He is of the mind that one strike and you are out. He won't break any rules when letting you know his viewpoint but you will know that you don't mess with the people he cares about. 𝓗𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝔂 ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ The golden standard among Korean Chaebols, born to a family with wealth built through hard work and cultivated over generations to reach a certain level of mugung, or “inexhaustible abundance.” The Korean Rose was born to a decent-sized family as a middle child and groomed to reach perfection through diligence. This resulted in a quiet child that often took the consequences for his older siblings shenanigans. Dedicating himself to hard work and sticking to himself has created a sort of “Ice-Prince” exterior that many college girls swoon over, unfortunately for them, he has a duty to fulfill in an arranged marriage with The Lily. Yeong-Jin is the third child and second son of the Noh family. Just like the rest of his siblings, Yeong-Jin found himself with good parents who instilled in them that no matter your goals, hard work and diligence would get you to the top. Of course, as a family involved in a large Chaebol named NY Group, one of the children would have to dedicate themselves to taking over from their father eventually. One would expect the oldest to eventually take over but for various reasons, Yeong-Jin's parents didn't deem either of his older siblings fit to take over as CEO from their father. The likely hood of either of Yeong-Jin's younger siblings having a shot at this role was low as they were much younger than the older three and their father, due to various ailments, wasn't expected to live long enough for them to be as old as needed to properly take his place. But despite this, the young intellectual didn't resent his position at all. The only thing he didn't enjoy was the occasional jealous looks from his older sister and brother. His sister tended to be aloof towards the high life of being a Chaebol but she eventually got over it. She had always wanted to be an actress so this worked out for her. His brother was a different story though. He wanted the company. He had always been shrewd and very interested in business but as he grew older he showed signs of greed and self-importance. Because of this, their parents tended to favor Yeong-Jin as the heir. Due to this, the brothers don't have a very great relationship. Even though his position as the future CEO of the NY group seems to be set in stone and his brother's flaws seem dangerous for staying a good-natured business, Yeong-Jin believes that his brother is a good person and would be a better fit as CEO than himself. However, as a dutiful son, Yeong-Jin hasn't really voiced this opinion to his parents. They are much older than him and it is their decision to make. He still had his own wants and desires. Maybe it stemmed from his mother being one of the best defense attorneys in South Korea or from his general desire to look after and take care of his younger siblings, but he wants to serve and protect the people. For the longest time, he was unsure of how though. Even if he knew how he wanted to do this it'd be hard to actively do so if he was made the CEO. But the whims and desires people have don't care about logical thinking. They just happen, which is why when Yeong-Jin's sister made her debut on the small screen in a Korean crime drama. He became hooked. Usually, the world of fiction didn't tend to interest him much, but the nature of crime dramas and how close they could be to reality drew him in. He found himself trying to solve the crimes alongside the main characters. He got quite good at it. He even started reading books within the same genre. He was fascinated with solving puzzles of this variety. When it comes to relationships outside of his family and maybe one or two friends though it seems like a barren wasteland. He doesn't really care enough to get close to anyone else largely in part to how no one else seems to want to put up with his blunt and seemingly boring nature. At most he is just friendly to other people and when it comes to romantics if you asked those near him then they'd probably say that for as long as they've known him nothing has gotten that ship to sail. In truth, that is only because he knew that there was a good chance that one day his parents would arrange a marriage for him so he tended to ignore flirtation or those kinds of feelings, but the heart tends to not care what the mind says at times and Yeong-Jin's is no different. You see, the children of the leaders of Chaebols tend to meet from time to time. It was at one such event that he met her and, despite how he usually was, Yeong-Jin felt inextricably drawn to her. Maybe it was her confidence or how she wasn't inherently like most other girls he knew. Her lack of shame for being who she wanted to be seemed like a north-seeking pole to his boring do what you're told and follow the road paved before you south-seeking pole. He never dared bring this up as he knew how old fashioned his parents were on some things and that they'd likely play a heavy role in determining who he'd be married to. Imagine his surprise, when during his last year of high school, to find that the one his parents would arrange for him to marry would be the one he had felt drawn to. He was presently surprised. He wouldn't call his feelings towards her love as they really didn't know each other but she was a very interesting person to him. As it was near the end of the school year he wasn't able to go and meet with her. Little did he know, she probably had no desire to see him. This is largely why, when after high school graduations she left the country, he was confused. He didn't know what was going through her head. He reached out to one of her brothers to try and figure out what was wrong. Let's just say that despite it not being his fault he had felt a little guilty about the whole situation. His parents were a little upset by the whole situation but with the help of his older sister, he was able to calm them down. He, on the other hand, didn't really know what he should do. After a month of debating with himself the best course of action, he decided that it really wasn't his place to say or do anything. If he tried it may just make matters worse so he simply prepared a bouquet of chamomile and purple hyacinth sending it to her. He wasn't going to force anything on her but hoped this gesture would let her know he didn't blame her. He did have to admit though that not accepting what others chose for her was alluring to him. He wouldn't be able to take it as far as she had and simply took a dual major which his parents weren't too fond of but he convinced them to let him study what he enjoyed.

@alexfangtalon hmmm... 🤔 on Netflix they have Love Alarm, High Society, My First First Love.
Not on Netflix: Heirs is a really good one to get an idea, but it’s definitely long. Graceful Family is super good as well, the family actively tries to cover up things so it might give you the best idea 🤔.

A vile of "poison" around the neck. Finds himself wandering the streets, the halls and the corridors on campus, no destination in mind. Cocky and thinks that he’s the best. Because he is. Duh. Always sports a leather jacket. Plotting revenge is a favorite past time. Sweet and charming one second then cutthroat the next. Life plans laid out since birth; though if you were to ask him he'd give a shrug and flip you off. Don't ask him. He doesn't know what he wants. Just that it isn't what his family wants. Lives for the thrill of the chase. He's the wolf, no questions asked. Rough sex anyone? Domination is key. Rebel without a cause. Mediocre grades due to lack of care. Sharp tongue and clear intentions. Drinking till he’s on the floor passed out. Don’t ever get on his bad side. 𝓗𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓸𝓻𝔂 ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ The peach blossom is considered a flower that shares its beauty with the other flowers of the same tree, so they are given a meaning of generosity and true love (not possessive love). The peach blossom is the second son of a hospitality conglomerate, and not in line to inherit any of the responsibilities that come with the wealth save for the family name. Having an older brother to shoulder the brunt of the expectations has afforded him a life of luxury sans stress where his parents let him get away with most of anything turning him into quite the troublemaker. As time passed his rowdy days were traded in for nonchalance and carried into a dating lifestyle that has left him with a host of very upset ex-girlfriends. Tak Jin-Kyu, second born and all around black sheep. Well, when compared to his older brother Ho-Jun. However, Jin doesn't hold that against Ho-Jun. It isn't his fault his father and mother place these unrealistic expectations on all their kids. Being the eldest, a lot of the pressure is placed on him rather than on Jin, allowing him to do as he saw fit whenever he wanted. Rebellious Tendencies and Jin go hand in hand with one another. Originally his outlet for his rowdy and rambunctious nature was through skateboarding. When you've ground down on enough pipe and thrashed your hands and knees as much as he has in this golden city, full of the wealthy and well to - do, than you would wanna find another outlet too. That's when he found his love for art. More specifically, inking and tattooing. He's always been entranced by the way the lines look marking skin; creating a masterpiece from scratch to have on someone else's body forever? Kickass. He didn't trade in shredding half pipes for sitting behind a drafting table, at least not permanently, Jin just likes to keep busy. It gets him outta the house when he doesn't want to be near his family - not to mention it's what everyone deems an "appropriate creative outlet". He's gone through his rebellious stage and swears it's come to a head and that he is not the same person he was then. Deadass liar. There are just some things that can't be outgrown so easily. Jin is very personable and charismatic and people are drawn to him because of it. However, he is an asshole and that isn't something he hides. His rowdiness has mellowed out somewhat and switched gears into a more nonchalant phase; where he almost seems impassive or just meh about things. In reality this boy cares. Just about things that interest him. If you aren't one of those things then... yeesh. Deuces. Though he's got a less than spotless record, Jin is nothing if not generous. Just ask any of his past lovers. On strictly that, don't bother asking them if he was long term material or not. They'll say he wasn't isn't. HOWEVER, that isn't to say anything negative about how he lavishly showers his friends and lovers, hell even random strangers, with gifts. Typically buying rounds at the bar or hosting parties with the cabinets stocked and filled to the brim with anything that could be wanted. Though it is in those moments that he feels more like an outsider than one of the gang. As of late, he would rather sit on the balcony, smoking, sipping his drink and watch the lights of the city than to partake in the party shenanigans just a few meters away. His new nonchalance helps in staving away unwanted company. Jin is the bad influence. Not matter how generous he seems. The devil comes disguised as everything you could ever want, right? He enjoys things that take him out of his reality and gives him a reprieve of his mental demons. So, music, skateboarding, getting a new tattoos and some innocent tagging here and there - it's all a welcomed reprieve for him. Though he would be remiss to say that he isn't looking for someone who could make it all worth it...

I love the idea of this role-play. But I've never really filled out a character sheet before, so I'll probably just enjoy reading it.

@KatKook Just noticed that for the characters we’re working on our given names use the same syllables but swapped. Would it be to weird to keep it like that or should I come up with another name?
