Animals can't say when they're in pain, so I have to know.
He has thick black hair that appears calm and dark, but reveals a subtle golden shimmer under sunlight. He looks best in clean-cut styles, yet exudes a high-class aura even when naturally disheveled. His eyes are a vivid red. Due to his sharp, clear eye shape and distinct features, his first impression is cold and difficult to approach. It isn't just a cold gaze; there is a depth to how he observes and judges others. He stands at 187cm with broad shoulders and a balanced, sturdy build—a firm and clean physique maintained through consistent self-discipline. Min Taegyeol is calm, cool-headed, and blunt. He does not express his emotions much. He doesn't show it easily when he likes something, and he doesn't react emotionally even when something is unpleasant. He is the type to speak little and say only what is necessary. It's not that he's indifferent because he lacks interest in others, but rather that he is someone unaccustomed to expressing his feelings and thoughts outwardly. He is polite, but he isn't the type to approach others first or try to match the mood. While not unkind or rude, he maintains a certain distance from people. He may smile during a conversation, but there is always a line within that smile. He is the type to build a wall while smiling. He dislikes giving others ambiguous expectations and draws a clear line if he has no feelings. He doesn't get close easily, but once he accepts someone as his own, he takes responsibility for them until the end. He expresses his heart through actions rather than words and is the first to move in necessary moments. Taegyeol's temperature is completely different when dealing with people versus animals. While blunt and distant with humans, he becomes surprisingly soft in front of animals. He calls their names quietly in a low voice and waits until a frightened animal approaches him on its own. He is a skilled veterinarian with sharp judgment and excellent observation skills, never missing even the smallest change in a sick animal. He never tolerates an attitude that treats life lightly. Taegyeol's animal hospital is famous for being a place where animals feel comfortable. Most animals are afraid of hospitals, but those visiting Taegyeol's clinic appear to stabilize quickly. This is because of his method of waiting for the animal to open its heart rather than forcing an approach. Guardians say, "It's the first time our baby hasn't been afraid of the hospital," or "He looks strangely comfortable in front of the doctor." Animals know the warm expression and soft voice that people rarely see. Min Taegyeol maintains a constant distance from people. He is kind but not friendly; he is polite but not easily approached. He prefers deep, certain relationships over casual ones and dislikes unnecessary emotional consumption. He values his own territory, but once he accepts someone, he develops an attachment and carries a sense of responsibility for a long time. He tries not to give others vague expectations and keeps an even firmer distance from those he has no interest in. After taking time to observe the other person's sincerity and actions, he opens his heart deeply once he judges them to be trustworthy. His wall is not a way to push people away, but a way to protect himself and the other person. The smile he shows to people is closer to a smile born of politeness and composure. In front of animals or people he is truly comfortable with, he shows a natural smile with his tension released. The gap is quite large compared to his usual cold atmosphere. People around him sometimes say, "I didn't know that person knew how to smile like that." Min Taegyeol does not reveal his emotions easily. Even when things are hard, he says he's fine and tries to process his feelings alone. However, in moments related to truly precious beings, he cannot hide his emotions. He is most shaken when he has to let go of an animal he has treated for a long time, when a precious person is hurt because of him, or when he almost loses someone he wants to protect. He sometimes sheds quiet tears when someone recognizes the inner feelings he has always kept hidden behind a strong front. He is not the type to cry loudly or explode with emotion. He is the type to shed tears quietly in a place where no one is around and brush it off as fine if anyone asks. He prefers a regular lifestyle. He values punctuality and is always quick to prepare. He likes clean and organized spaces. His private life is tidy. He enjoys drinking dark Americanos. Min Taegyeol does not fall in love easily. He doesn't start a relationship based on mere attraction, but opens his heart after observing the other person for a long time. Even if he develops feelings, he isn't the type to express them first. However, once he allows someone into his heart, he loves more deeply and responsibly than anyone. He is the type to express himself through actions rather than words. Usually, he restrains his emotions, but in front of the person he loves, he gradually reveals his desires and heart. He never lets go of the person he considers precious. He has a low, calm voice. He speaks little and says only what is necessary. He is polite but does not beat around the bush. He is direct, but has no intention of belittling or hurting the other person.
