Sang-sook Kim (birth name)
Byung-woo "Levi" Kim (preferred name)
| Date of Birth |14 February 1998
| Gender |Transgendered Male
| Sexuality |Pansexual
| Occupation |Works at a fast food restaurant
| In-Depth Appearance |Levi is identical to Lucy – he possesses the same cheekbones and soft, pink lips. His eyes are wider than his sister and he wears glasses because of reading too much in the dark. His hair is thick and naturally curly, though he straightens it sometimes. He has the same red tint in his hair that his sister does, but denies dying it at all. Before he identified as a boy, Levi had short hair that curled around his chin and framed his face. However, after spontaneously cutting it himself, Levi had to get his hair fixed by a hair dresser to frame his face with bangs and slightly curl around his neck. He hates having long hair and is very sensitive to the heat of it on his forehead – though his mother forbids him from getting rid of his bangs or cutting it shorter, so he keeps it that length. Often, to let his forehead cool, he’ll pull his bangs into a small ponytail. Though he is the same height of his sister, being 5’6”, Levi is skinnier than her and weaker. However, he goes to the gym more now to prove a point to Lucy. Levi takes very good care of his skin and washes it before bed and after waking up; he also sleeps in a mask sometimes. He doesn’t wear makeup, except for a little bit of eyeliner in order to make his eyelashes look shorter and his eyes seem deeper. While his sister prefers comfortable clothing, Levi likes to wear edgy clothing. As such, skinny jeans, leather jackets, and t-shirts are the norm. Because he has to appease his mother every once and a while, Levi dresses as a girl for her, but it’s obvious how uncomfortable he feels when dressed as such versus the confidence he exudes when dressed in his normal clothing. Levi has 0-sized gauges in his ears, much to the ire of his mother. Unbeknownst to his mother, Levi has two tattoos: a tattoo on the side of his middle finger of his right hand that says "Speak Up." and a larger tattoo over his heart that looks like a heart monitor reading before curving to say the words "Just Live."
| Scent |Levi smells like coffee, leather, and bananas sometimes (depending if Lucy made him soap or not).
| Personality |♦ Clueless ♦ Clumsy ♦ Childish ♦ Cheerful ♦
Despite having a rebellious image and having no qualms against doing illegal things, Levi is, in all actuality, a cinnamon bun. Growing up, he was known by his sister as being a crybaby and got hurt rather easily by other people’s words. He always had to rely on Lucy to take care of him when he was sad or hurt. But because of his fragile ego, Levi found it really easy to empathize with others and, as such, always made it his personal responsibility to cheer up everyone around him.
However, even though he’s really in tune with other people’s sadness and happiness, Levi is horrible at knowing other emotions and cannot read between the lines often. In this retrospect, Levi is clueless when it comes to relationships beyond friendship. Sarcasm goes over his head sometimes and he hates satire, completely opposite of his sister. Instead, he enjoys simple gag humor and loves watching Korean variety shows because of it. Furthermore, like every Anime protagonist ever, Levi is extremely clumsy. He’s the little fuck that breaks the expensive vase and has to become a male courtesan at a high school in order to pay it off. Because of his clumsiness, Levi is known as a bad luck charm amongst his friends since he breaks everything he touches.
The best part of Levi’s personality is his cheerfulness and, conversely, the most annoying part of his personality is his childishness. Levi is the type of person who could brighten up your entire day, but piss you off at the same time because he’s making some face or another. He hates responsibility and would rather push it off onto someone else – usually Lucy – and is an extreme procrastinator. If he’s annoyed or being mocked, Levi is not above making a face behind someone’s back or to stick a tongue out. And, to add to that, he’s the type of person who will continue to do something simply because he knows it annoys them. But, it’s not all bad: Levi loves to joke around and makes it his priority to make everyone laugh with his horrible jokes and spot-on improv acting.
Because of his experiences with Beom-soo, Levi is not afraid of doing bad things and staying out late. He finds a guilty pleasure in spray painting buildings and stealing candy bars and underwear from stores. In Korea, he lived at parties, and was the “fun drunk” of the group. When it comes to morals, Levi is fine with lying and stealing, but draws a line when it gets too American Horror Story.

There are two stories of how Levi’s father died: a bungee jumping incident (mother’s story) and a robbery (Grandma’s story). Levi never really cared to know the truth, and told both his mother and Grandma that he believed their stories – in truth, he thinks it was something completely different, like a car crash or something.
Levi’s childhood was spent as a girl. When he moved to Seoul with his family, unlike his sister, he kept his Satoori accent which, paired with his short hair and more masculine clothes, he received a reputation for being a badass on the playground. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. He was far from a badass and, once the kids figured that out, bullied him relentlessly. Lucy tried to protect him every now and then, but she wasn’t around most of the time when it happened. When he was ten is when he met Beom-soo; he had gotten a particularly nasty push when Beom-soo came barreling forward, knocking the kids off their feet. And, before Levi could show his thanks, Beom-soo declared loudly that Levi owed him a kiss for defending “her” honor. Levi didn’t react fast enough and Beom-soo planted a peck on his cheek. Of course, that was the moment that Lucy arrived and Beom-soo suffered a swift kick to the balls and the twins left. Levi did not expect Beom-soo to talk to him the next day though, either. And a friendship bloomed.
Eventually, the Kim family saw Beom-soo as another member. He was always around and sometimes would inexplicably stay at their house for a week before going home (he didn’t have the best family life). Usually the twins’ mother wouldn’t like such a rebellious man hanging around her “daughters,” but Beom-soo usually was able to beat the boys away from Levi since he became increasingly popular amongst them (something about him being like “one of the guys” and being pretty? Levi never really understood it, but he was popular amongst them). However, that also meant that Levi got caught up with Beom-soo’s crowd and often spent his nights out late and getting into trouble.
Growing up, Levi never felt comfortable in his skin and always felt…wrong somehow. He could never pinpoint why and often talked to Beom-soo about it. Beom-soo never really understood, but he supported him in everything he did. Eventually, Levi felt himself liking Beom-soo more and more and only after an intense interrogation from Lucy did Levi admit that he had a crush on Beom-soo. However, Levi felt he would never be good for Beom-soo because Beom-soo liked feminine girls.
There came a night, a little bit after Levi’s thirteenth birthday, when he was hanging out with Beom-soo and his friends when Beom-soo’s then-girlfriend made a flippant comment about Levi’s femininity. Something snapped in Levi, not exactly an enraged snap, but a revelation almost and Levi rushed home and chopped off all his hair while everyone was sleeping. He stayed up all night researching names and, when morning came, he stumbled down the stairs and declared himself Byung-woo Kim. His mother didn’t react well and grounded him, but his sister came to the rescue and eventually convinced his mother to let him back out. Unfortunately, his mother shrugged it off as a phase and tries to push skirts and dresses on him sometimes. When Levi told Beom-soo, he didn’t seem to react to the news, but instead shrugged and asked Levi if he wanted something to eat.
Shortly afterwards, their mother met a tourist named Richard while getting drunk off of wine at a hotel. After a week of knowing each other, they legally got married.The Kim family didn’t leave Korea right away. Lucy and Levi at first did not like Richard, but they have since learned to reluctantly accept him – Lucy gets along with him better than Levi does.
| Family |The Kim family moved to Red Lake a year ago following Lucy and Levi's mother's marriage to a tourist. The family is rather private and so not much is known about them. However, their new step-father is known throughout the town as a lawyer and a native as his family has lived there forever. They live in a relatively nice suburban house with plenty of room for them.
Jeong-ja Kim - The previously single mother of Lucy and Levi. Jeong-ja loves red wine and wearing faux fur; she can come off as materialistic and naive. She doesn't particularly care about grades, but prefers to bond with her daughter and son over appearances. Though Jeong-ja seems supportive of Levi's transgendered identity, she is convinced that it is just a phase that will go over soon.
Richard "Dick" Lewinsky - A douchebag lawyer who married Jeong-ja after meeting her in Korea while sight-seeing. Though he is, in fact, a total dickbag that never grew out of his high school varsity football personality, he can be caring when he wants to be and genuinely cares bout the Kim Family. He plans to take their last name because he doesn't want it to be hard on the children. He is also very accepting of Levi's gender identity, though he sometimes makes jokes which Levi has a hard time dealing with.
Sang-mi "Lucy" Kim - Levi's twin sister. Lucy is extremely studious and always puts her studies first - even to the point of punching a guy in the face for distracting her from her homework. She puts intellect before anything else and is protective of Levi.
Chun-ja "Grandma" Kim - Lucy and Levi's grandmother who is currently living with them. Chun-ja prefers for everyone to call her "Grandma," finding the American term endearing and often encourages amongst Lucy and Levi's friends. Grandma is obsessed with the American dream and often creates get rich quick schemes that she often pulls a reluctant Lucy into. Grandma often will admonish and lecture people in public and cannot speak English, much to the Verona population's ire.
A-ya - The Kim family's cat that seems to have it out for them. She often sneaks around the house and lurks behind them and is prone to scaring the shit out of Levi (he's convinced she does it on purpose). At night, A-ya tends to pull the blankets off of people's feet and scratch the crap out of them - as a preventative, the Kim family now wears fuzzy socks (but A-ya has been practicing on taking them off). She was originally named Bora, but now only responds to A-ya because whenever she was around, the family would shout "A-ya!" (onomatopoeia word for ouch). Despite being evil, she is really good at learning tricks (from a distance) and will be nice if you have food.
Beom-soo Kwon - An aspiring musician who isn't exactly related to the Kim family, but practically was. He is the best friend of Levi (who may or may not have a crush on him) and is known for appearing very severe and serious but having a wild, jokester personality. He currently lives in Korea, but claims he wants to come eventually live with Levi and Lucy in America. He is very religious about his bucket list which he carries everywhere with him and has a daredevil attitude about it (his next objective is to smoke pot in America).
