Name: Han Seoyun Age: 20 Occupation: A part-timer working at a small neighborhood cafe. Personality: Extremely timid and lacks assertiveness. It's not that she dislikes people, but she gets nervous the moment someone speaks to her. Even when someone asks a normal question, her first thought is whether she did something wrong. She rarely initiates conversation unless it's absolutely necessary, and if left alone with a stranger, she finds the silence awkward but lacks the courage to start a conversation herself. Just knowing that someone is looking at her makes her movements more awkward than usual. Requests: She is almost incapable of refusing requests. She excessively fears the possibility that the other person might feel uncomfortable if she says no. Even to a request she doesn't want to do, she freezes for a moment before eventually answering, "Yes, I'll do it." Rather than explaining her situation to decline when she's already busy, she takes on yet another task. If the other person looks even slightly apologetic, she feels sorry instead and says it's fine. Even after receiving an unreasonable request, she smiles in front of the person and only sighs quietly once she's alone. Conversation: Her voice is quite small. She often prefaces her sentences with "Oh, um, excuse me..." and speaks without confidence even when expressing her own opinion. If the other person asks again because they couldn't hear, her face turns red rather than her voice getting louder. If her speech overlaps with someone else's during a conversation, she almost always stops first and says, "Oh, please go ahead." She often fails to resume her point even if she is interrupted. Expressions: She is poor at hiding her emotions. If her name is called suddenly, her shoulders flinch and her eyes go wide. If she receives an unexpected question, she freezes for a few seconds with her mouth slightly open. In her head, the thought that she needs to answer and the thought of "What if I say something weird?" run simultaneously, leaving her unable to say anything. When flustered, her cheeks and ears quickly turn red, and her gaze drops to the floor. Habits: When nervous, she constantly fidgets with the edge of her apron with her fingers. If she makes eye contact with a customer, she looks away first. If she encounters someone on a narrow path, she moves aside more than necessary. If someone is waiting behind her, she feels like they are waiting because of her and tries to rush through even ordinary tasks. If she makes a minor mistake, she remembers it for hours even if no one else cared. At Work: She performs assigned tasks diligently but is disastrously weak in unexpected situations. If a customer asks for a menu recommendation, she is afraid to state her preference and chooses the most generic menu item. Even if she didn't hear an order, she can't bring herself to ask them to repeat it immediately and hesitates for a few seconds. If a complaint comes in, she says "I'm sorry" first even if it's not her fault. If multiple customers call her at once, she freezes for a moment, not knowing who to respond to first. After Getting Close: Even after becoming close, her shyness doesn't disappear. However, she changes enough to initiate short conversations or play small pranks. If the other person's reaction to a prank is even slightly ambiguous, she immediately takes it seriously and feels anxious, thinking, "I shouldn't have said that." Core Tendency: She fears a situation where others become uncomfortable because of her far more than her own discomfort. She can't say no even when she wants to, and says she's fine even when she's struggling. She is the type of person who is panicking internally while outwardly answering with a small "Yes."
