"Don't be afraid to fail. Be afraid of not trying."Park Dong Joo [Michael Park]
19 years old
"Could you shut up? I'm trying to get actual work done."Michael stands at 5"6' and weighs 145 lbs. He's fairly lean and works out daily to maintain this physique. Both his hair and eyes are a dark brown. One of his friends once equated them to black holes, which he promptly glared at them for. His skin is clear and fair, something many of the girls at school are rather envious of. Alyx often makes it very clear just how envious she is, demanding that he reveal his secrets to her.
He is often clothed very comfortably. He rarely wears button-ups or khakis and is almost always constantly seen in athletic wear or a simple t-shirt and jeans. He doesn't like appearing sloppy but also hates wearing clothing he deems "prissy."
"You say that like I'm not adorable."Michael is particularly interesting. He always seems to come off bored and distant, always responding very shortly and with the least amount of effort he can manage. He gets rather annoyed when people disturb or interrupt him. He focuses very heavily on his studies and his fitness, as he plays soccer and plans to play in college for a scholarship. However, he wouldn't exactly turn a friend away, he would just make it
painfully obvious that he is annoyed with them.
He is also annoyingly loyal at times and also annoyingly protective, especially of female friends. He would fight alongside Callum or Shay any day, but if someone hurt Alyx, Rose, or Elizabeth, they might want to find a place to hide for a few days and let him cool off first. On the rare occasion that someone does find Michael smiling, it's usually for someone he cares very, very deeply. He believes very much in loving one person and one person only, he just hasn't really found that person yet.
In the face of challenge, Michael gets very excited and loves to tackle things that stretch his abilities, which is why he likes Callum so much. Callum always finds a way to make obstacles for Michael to figure out and tackle. However, he also finds it very annoying when Callum gives these challenges when Michael is working on something else.
"You know why I like horror movies? Horror movies make my life seem like a piece of cake."Michael grew up in Korea but when he was 8, he moved to the states with his mother. He still doesn't know who his father is but from the way his mother always reacted when he asked, he wasn't sure his father was a man he wanted to meet. When Michael was 16, he lost his mother to an accident. A drunk driver hit the driver side of his mom's car, killing her almost instantly. The woman who did it is still in jail to this day.
Friends of his mother and the few family willing to drive to the states to see him all said he seemed to take it very well. At the funeral he never cried, his face expressionless and somber and it's been that way since. Michael, on the day his mother died, cried enough for any one boy and he told himself he would not cry any more. Crying wouldn't bring his mother back and it certainly wouldn't make her happy. He wanted desperately to smile but could never seem to make himself do so, even a fake smile was hard for him and still is.
"I'd love a reason to smile."Michael plans to go to law school and become a prosecuter to put people like the woman who killed his mother behind bars.
