APPEARANCE: Scruffy, and somewhat muscular. Gray doesn't keep his hair well kept, usually waking up and whatever his hair is, that's how it's going to be for the entire day. When he's wearing his glasses, Gray always seems to squint despite having them like an old grandpa, but he wears them from time to time or when he needs to read some text.
STYLE: There's not much to say about his fashion sense, since it usually just boils down to a nice button up shirt and some pants, maybe a jacket if Gray's feeling bold. He has his Korean name tattooed on his forearm, and some small hibiscus flowers on the lower back. In a more casual explanation, he dresses like a funky uncle or cool dad would, if that makes sense.
FAMILY: Gray's family immigrated to America during the crisis in South Korea, where his family resided in the Pacific Northwest, staying in Oregon while bringing the rest of their family to America as well. His mom and dad don't speak English very well, and Gray used to be his family's translator when going out in public. The rest of his extended family spread out in the PNW, whereas his family moved to West Virginia for more job opportunities when he was eight. Gray still gets postcards and letters from his extended family, and he's hoping someday he might be able to get to do a family reunion.
FRIENDS: Being Korean in the west side of America, especially during the 1970's-1980's growing up, Gray didn't have much friends due to language barriers and looking different from the others. Of course, coming to school with "weird" food also didn't help him much, but Gray learned to grow past others' inability to look past differences and grew to be happy being alone. Of course, he doesn't mind the casual conversation these days and loves to chat with whoever wants to.
LIVING SITUATION: Hazzard, home sweet home. Of course, his trailer home isn't much, but he does like living in his cozy home. Gray splurged on a nice armchair that he likes watching TV in, and he has a good collection of books on his bookshelf. Of course, there's some times he wishes maybe he could live in Prosper or somewhere nice, especially in the winter time when it gets crazy cold, but he gets by and that's enough. His parents live in the next town nearby, which is about thirty to forty minutes away. He doesn't mind the solitude, especially since he has little Ducky with him.
WORK: Grayson works as a crime lab technician -- he's the go to in the county for forensic analysis on crime scenes and what not, but his lab is in another town, the same town where his parents live, since the County Department doesn't have the funding for a lab or anything like that. It's a little tough driving back and forth, but hey, he has a steady job, and it pays the bill. Usually he'll give his two-cents on crime scenes or suspects based on the evidence, but he's not an official officer or anything, he's just the technician. His typical day is just inventorying evidence and examining it.
SCHOOL: Honestly, Gray did pretty well despite his first language being Korean. He adapted quickly and didn't get any bad grades, and was basically somewhat above average in school. With not a lot of friends or interests in clubs, that meant that his focus went into his academics. He liked science and all the funky terms that went along with it, and with his love for cheesy crime shows at the time, Gray went into the criminology path, taking classes in community college and working his way up. Of course, it took him a while before he gained his Master's degree, which then he started working as a crime lab technician.
ASPIRATIONS: Well, the American Dream for him and his family was achieved in their eyes, Gray didn't really have that itch to become more, and he liked living a quaint life without many riches. Of course, when PANIC didn't come back his graduating year, Gray felt a little cheated out of a future, but he still got through college and here he is, living his life in Hazzard. There is a little part of him though, that feels bad, that he can't provide more for his parents, or reconnect his family.
RIVALRY: Hazzard people are good people, and Gray will always argue that. Of course, he doesn't care where you came from, as long as you're a good person, you know? His work makes him come everywhere in the county, so he's seen both sides and there's not much to say. Rivalry? More like, uh, stinky!A
