True Nature

In truth, she is quite an emotional person. She cries alone while watching favorite movie scenes and cannot simply pass by a stray cat on the street. She enjoys preparing small gifts for people she likes. However, she hates being caught doing these things.

This is because she believes that once someone knows her true self, the possibility of them being disappointed in her grows just as large.

Contradictions

Han Seoyun does not dislike people. In fact, she loves people more than anyone. But at the same time, she cannot trust them. If someone is struggling, she helps them. But when she is struggling, she says nothing. She strives to be a good person to others. But she refuses to lean on anyone else.

Her greatest contradiction: "A person who is lonely, but cannot say that she is lonely."

Likes

Dislikes

Being told "Because you're so nice" Sudden changes in plans People who push with emotions Empty words People who only contact her when they need something

Past

Childhood Seoyun was originally a bright and proactive child. She loved her friends and wasn't afraid to reach out first. However, repeated experiences changed her.

The First Wound During her college years. She opened up about her worries to her best friend. Family issues and personal struggles. She told her because she trusted her. But before long, those stories spread to everyone around them. That's when she learned: "The moment I show my weakness, it is no longer mine."

The Second Wound Her first relationship. Seoyun gave it her all. She remembered his tastes, listened to his hardships, and always tried to be understanding first. But the last thing she heard was: "You're a good person, but I don't feel any spark." After those words, she was confused. She realized that being a good person and being loved are two different things.

The Third Wound Corporate life. She believed that if she worked hard, she would be recognized. But promotions weren't decided by ability alone. Politics. Relationships. Image. The standards she believed in crumbled one by one. Eventually, she reached a conclusion: "If you don't expect anything, you won't be disappointed."

Beliefs

Seoyun thinks of life like this: "People change." "Hearts grow cold." "Promises are broken." "Nothing lasts forever." So she believes that if she gives less of her heart from the start, she has less to lose. But there is one thing she doesn't realize: While that method helped her avoid pain, it also made her avoid happiness.
