I've decided I'm now a fan of the KBO League in South Korea. Rip to the Reds and Brewers, but now the Kia Tigers & Hanhwa Eagles are my new favorite baseball teams 💅💅💅

‧ ₊ ˚ ✧ › MUSE: and without further ado, allow me to introduce shin eunbi— 19 years old, a yuseong native doing her best at trying to balance work, school, & relationships. catch her earning a quick buck & killing time at pierrot lanes front desk. you can find her also wip sobs stats page here!
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay? may 7th, 2004. born during a brisk springs afternoon.
what does an average day look like for your muse & where can they usually be found? juggling a full time schedule at university, alongside a part time job, isn't always easy— the commute to her classes is arduous enough, her time spent inland normal reserved only for when she needs to be on campus ( ordinarily, this mean her early mornings / middays are packed a coupe days a week ). evenings & nights are where her free time reigns, split between having to study, take on a shift at perriot lanes, or allowing herself leisure time for whatever she so chooses. weekends are a toss up— maybe she'll be at work, maybe she'll at andante in the hopes of finishing a last second assignment, maybe she'll have been dragged to the shopping district. or, maybe she's in the company of someone special.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort? with an appreciation for consistency, the sudden traffic brought on my the resort is something eunbi doesn't really care for. she enjoys her peace and quiet, and while she still has that to an extent, there are far more eyes to view her now than she liked.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay? yuseong has always been home, a safe space that, despite the sad memories lingering everywhere she looks, makes her happy. there isn't an innate want to leave, so why would she?
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
beside you — keshi.
door — caroline polachek.
brooklyn love — lolo zouai.
describe your muse’s wardrobe. comfortable, cozy, easy. having to juggle work, school & fun leisurely outings with friends leaves little time for eunbi to care too much about what she wears on a daily bases. she always looks put together, but in a way that looks effortless ( even if she’s running on fumes ).
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse? sage green, structured, 🥀.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.likes — clean scented laundry, the sound of rain, making deadlines.
dislikes — freshly polished bowling lane smell, gossip, all-nighters.
three positive and negative traits for your muse.positives — calm, thoughtful, introverted.
negatives — skeptical, stony, indifferent.
three talents and shortcomings for your muse. naturally inquisitive and always one for details, eunbis knack in terms of retaining knowledge is the saving grace of her academic career. it's never been difficult for her to study ( not that she does it in excess, she just likes to have good grades ), nor have special dates / matters of predetermined importance ever slipped her mind, making it possible to keep her ever moving life on track with little room for combustion or burnout. sensitivities towards smells, however, have been an issue since was a child— it's one of the main reasons she works at the front desk of perriot ( not only is the job easy and light on work, it's also the farthest vantage point from crowds of people gathered around strongly polished lanes making heaps of noise ).
a relevant goal or arc for your character to overcome. she doesn't know it, but deep down, eunbi would like to grow softer. it's something that, for her, is well overdue.

‧ ₊ ˚ ✧ › MUN: good afternoon, my dears! i'm k ( she/her, est, 21+ ), the writer behind han mila & shin eunbi. milas blog serves as my main, while eunbis is a side, so you'll most likely see me interact from this one more frequently ooc! if you'd like to plot over on discord, i'm happy to give that out upon request! ♡
‧ ₊ ˚ ✧ › MUSE: and now, meet han mila— 25 years old, a city girl who planted her roots in yuseong bay only 4 months ago, so she's a new resident. utilizing her marketing degree ( wow, fancy ), she currently works as a visual merchandiser at eclectique 33. you can find her wip stats page here!
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay? mila has only begun planting roots for herself in yuseong about four months ago ( so, essentially, at the very beginning of this year ).
what does an average day look like for your muse & where can they usually be found? the busiest of bees, mila can be seen fluttering around eclectique, as well as it's general vicinity, the majority of time— at least, during the day / general work hours. as mornings wind down into evenings and the sun begins to set, the blonde often takes refugee at the 88&bar, nursing cocktails of her choice as a way of keeping her frazzled thoughts at bay ( when i tell you this city girl is still trying to adjust to rural living amidst having her hallmark movie moment . . . pls help her ).
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort? having no real frame of reference for what mild negativities a resort like hanhwa could be bringing to the local space and its primary inhabitants whose daily lives are now continuously altered, mila herself doesn't see the harm with how much attention it seems to be garnering. honestly, the urban crowds that filter in and out are a welcome familiarity.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay? for the time being, mila has no real idea what she's looking for just yet— coming to yuseong had been a random, but conscious, choice, one made with the intention of being somewhere different. for now, four months in and still aspiring to find some sense of rthym for herself ( as hard as that'd currently been ), the thought of wanting to leave has yet to cross her mind.
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
healing — fletcher.
walking home — mac ayres.
naked girl — iyla.
describe your muse’s wardrobe. flirty, girly, pastels. a soft romantic at heart, that aspect of her personality translates one for one in terms of her fashion.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse? baby pink, ambitious, 🎀.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes — floral perfumes, early mornings, staying busy.
dislikes — creative ruts, the stench of fish, root regrowth.
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
positives — sweet, upbeat, extroverted.
negatives — impulsive, workaholic, judgy.
three talents and shortcomings for your muse. having a knack for connecting with others, a skill she'd already had since childhood that only got stronger with time, mila can make an acquaintance out of anyone. open, ready to talk about anything and everything, there's not a single person she'd ever found herself intimidated by enough to keep her distance. often times, it's this very facete of herself that leads to a decline in energy by the days end, her social batteries quick to recharge after quiet evenings, and even then, she'll often find herself engaging in conversations past her moods expiration simply because that's what she's always done. mild eye bags and all that'll be gone come time to wake up the next morning, mila engages with a smile.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? without question, elle woods has always been a role model, a character mila strives make proud.
a relevant goal or arc for your character to overcome. finding balance, not just within herself, but in this new daily life she's found for herself.

short mun introduction here. hi, hi! i'm autumn (she/they, 21+) again and i bring you not only my baby taeho here, but also ahn kiha (@srnscng) & kim aera (@orchdaria) so feel free to contact me on any of them! i also have discord upon request ♡
short muse introduction here. moon taeho, 24 y/o. university student at jeju national uni and also part times as a barback at 88&. he's a resident in yuseong bay (for now anyway) because the rent is much cheaper than in jeju city (also for now help) so it just made sense in his head to move in here even with the extra cost of transportation than to stay in the city, so he sort of just moved in with a roommate! he studies early childhood education because he wants to be a kindergarten teacher or work in a daycare (is actually looking for an internship somewhere right now so pls root for him 🙏🙏🙏). here is his profile and here is his pinterest!
answer the following prompts, either ooc or ic!
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
he arrived not so long ago on march of this year! taeho is actually from daegu and at first moved to jeju city because that's where he decided to go to university to, he has been been in jeju city for about two years (this is his third) before moving to yuseong bay. his parents aren't the greatest at parenting (at least not with him) so he's in that transitional moment of trying to heal his inner child/needing some time away from them and going to jeju for university instead of a closer educational institution. however the rent in jeju city is wildly expensive even if it's a dorm room so he was thinking about moving in somewhere else a little cheaper to cut off expenses. even then it still took him a while to find someone that was thinking the same as him and he finally took that last step to move out and here we are.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
he usually wakes up at around 6:30 to 7am (when he doesn't hear his alarm) to do the bare minimum tattoo skincare (as in wash his face and put some sunscreen) and then have some breakfast, get ready to university and then he spends four to five hours seeking higher education. then he usually just goes back home for lunch to either do chores around home (or goes out to do house chores like grocery shopping/get a new shower because his broke, etc etc), assignments or simply to take a nap and eat something before starting his shift at 88&; unless it's monday, wednesday or friday, then he goes to the recreational center to work out for around one hour to two hours before going home to prepare for his shift. taeho does his shift and then goes back home for the night, still prob tries to catch up on an episode or two of any anime he's watching (and then proceeds to regret it the morning after) before going to bed.
where can your muse usually be found?
he's a little of a homebody tbh so it's somewhat hard to see him out of the house unless he has something to do or a friend dragged him out, but if he's feeling adventurous, you could prob find in at andante cafe in the afternoon trying to finish some assignment while having some coffee and a little sweet treat, or the recreation center getting his weekly workout, or on either pierrot's lanes to try out some of the retro arcades or even the memoire antique shop simply to check if someone dropped any old mangas that he might be interested in, very unlikely, but it's something to get him out of the house, so.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
he's surprisingly neutral about it. taeho does think it's a pity and bad that the local community are losing their space in their own hometown — either because of the higher and higher prices and because the resort is so obviously trying to own it in a way —, but he also sort of thinks it's inevitable considering capitalism how the world is; sort of only hopes that his rent will remain cheaper than the his dorm room in jeju city at least until he graduates and most likely will move out somewhere else or he gets his internship/a job that gets him a little more money than the one he has now.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
taeho has always seen yuseong bay as the place cheaper than jeju city that he's going to live until he gets his degree. even though he does enjoy the more quiet life (and despises the bad reception even if it gives him an excuse to not call his parents/to not answer their rare calls), i feel like he's a city boy through and through. he can get used to a life there if the need arises (like him getting a job/internship there, or anything like that), but i don't think that he wants to. however he isn't picky nor has this goal of living in a specific place in the end, so i guess in a way if he stays or not in yuseong bay after he gets his degree is sort of a mystery.
answer the following, ooc!
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
in no specific order: super beaver - らしさ ; official髭男dism - mixed nuts ; urban zakapa - i don't love you. (was really tempted in making these three anime songs to expose this big nerd's ass but alas)
describe your muse’s wardrobe.
one word: basic. he's very very very basic. jeans and a tshirt, usually slightly oversized/loose for comfort, in simple colors — nothing too bright (and god forbid neon) but he still wears colors —, simple patterns, simple prints; if he's feeling a little bolder, he'll bring out his anime tshirts. since he has tattoos, he usually is always wearing a shirt or a jacket over his tshirt to hide them (or expose them if he's feeling "safe") since sometimes he does get a little more attention because of them and he just would rather not.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
sky blue, diligence, 😑
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
really likes anime, homemade food, coffee / really dislikes spicy food, being the center of attention in a crowded room/space, things done halfassedly.
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
positive diligent, generous, well-mannered / negative critical, reticent, stubborn
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
talents is great with kids and with handcraft things, can fall asleep anywhere at anytime / shortcomings is stubborn in his ways even if it's proven it's not the best way, always pushes himself a little too hard/is too hard on himself, can't ask for help even when he needs to
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to?
nanami kento from jujutsu kaisen and somewhat sakusa kiyoomi from haikyuu.
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
taeho has a huge issue with his parents because they were pretty negligent with him but he still searches for their approval/validation/attention anyway and it'd be nice for him to realize that they won't ever really give it to him, not the same way that he does with his younger brother that is so obviously the favorite son, and not be to hung up on it and instead pay more attention to the people that genuinely care for him in his life + having a little more of self worth/love instead of just allowing himself to be taken for granted by others.
extra bits !
his parents obviously had him when they weren't prepared for it and it so obviously show. they aren't the best parents since they don't know how to interact with a kid (even more so when it's their own son) and so they were never close to each other from the start, but at least they tried even if they just ended up treating him as an older kid than he actually was.
things don’t get better when his younger brother is born as the apple of his parents’ eyes, a child that came when they actually wanted one and used the excuse that he was born with a sick body to give him more attention than to taeho (but then things didn’t change when his little brother got healthy later on).
so he learned how to be an adult a little too soon and how to look after himself; surprisingly he doesn’t really resent neither his parents nor his brother for it and he does love them dearly, would die and kill for them, even if the relationship with his parents is still awkward at best.
was always the epitome of the good kid™ (and still is tbh), always well-mannered and too worried about getting good grades and behaving/not causing trouble to really enjoy being just a kid. he was always too quiet to really make a lot of friends growing up.
as much as he just wanted to chill throughout his school years, he still ended up class president more than once and almost if not all of his group assignments he ended up as the group’s leader because at the end of the day he’s very critical and methodical about things, esp academic work, so he ends up taking charge just so things will be up to his standards. he also has very dependable vibes so people end up relying on him a lot too so in the end he does end up in positions of leadership even if the i in his mbti wants otherwise.
characteristics that he carries with himself to this day. hence why new semester is yet another broken promise that he’ll just chill in group tasks and agree with everything.
did his military service right after graduating high school because the tensions were only getting higher in his house since he started trying to demand more attention to his parents that obviously didn't know/won't give to him and one of them suggested that this would be a good thing for him, that they'd be proud of a son that didn't try to "procrastinate" his civil duties so of course he goes.
which was an experience that gave him a lot to think about his relationship with his parents so when he was done, he wasn't quite ready to go back home yet so he tries an university away from them and that's how he ends in jeju national university.
is a big— huge anime fan, has collections of mangas (that he never completes/drops midway through and reads on the shounen jump app instead), has three tattoos about shows that he enjoys/watches; but is also very lowkey about the merch that he wears/uses (i.e. wearing a sports shirt from an anime team to work out) that makes small references to what he watches, very iykyk thing.

short mun introduction here. hi, hi! i'm autumn (she/they, 21+) and i bring you not only my baby aera here, but also moon taeho (@mooninkd) & ahn kiha (@srnscng) so feel free to contact me on any of them! i also have discord upon request ♡
short muse introduction here. kim aera. 25 y/o. a nurse practitioner at cheongdanhae clinic and a resident! she was born and raised in yuseong bay all her life and honestly she has never known anything else nor she does really want to (for now anyway) even though she might claim otherwise. here is her profile and here is her pinterest!
answer the following prompts, either ooc or ic!
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
as said before, aera was born and raised in yuseong bay! she once dreamed of doing med school in some big city (seoul) just like her big sister that also went there for her university degree and have her little young adult adventures, however in the end she gave up the idea because of certain circumstances in her life. not that she's sad about not leaving yuseong bay anymore!! actually she wholeheartedly sees it as her home; she likes her job and she likes the house that she lives in, she likes (esp!!) the stray cats on the bay and she genuinely doesn't see herself living somewhere else (at least for now).
what does an average day look like for your muse?
she wakes up around 7am, has a cup of homemade matcha latte (recipe from her mother! she wanted to consume caffeine in a "healthy" manner so aera grew up with more matcha than coffee in her life) while attending to the small garden that she has (that was also her mother's!), talks to the plants a little bit so they can grow well and then goes back inside to have a proper breakfast, talks a little with the picture that she has of her parents in their little altar. then she gets ready goes to work after a cheerful i'm going now but i'll be back in the evening! goodbye to them so she's at clinic at 9am. as promised is only back around dinner time; usually she's too tired to cook so she buys dinner on the way or shamelessly stops by the place of one of the elderly couples/people that saw her grow up and knows that they'd never refuse to feed her (as a matter of fact they're more than glad to do so!), besides the company always does her good. then she goes home to watch some drama while doing some crocheting, especially if she didn't have any other opportunity to do so during her day (like having a slow day at work or anything like that); goes to bed around 10pm the earliest, 11pm to 12am the latest.
where can your muse usually be found?
besides work (rip aera and her 10 hours shifts), she can also be seen around the pier around mid afternoon, even more so during the colder seasons, trying to put sweaters (that she made herself) on the cats of the community they have in yuseong bay; goes to daeyanghwa florals every two weeks or so (or when she wants to treat herself a little) to get gardening supplies or new seeds/flowers for her garden and goes to lemon martes almost weekly for groceries because she always forgets one thing or two even with always having her groceries list with her— also enjoys the farmer's market to see the stalls and encountering a familiar face or two. once in a blue moon, she can also be seen in the recreation center trying to start some working out routine that she drops after a day or two.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
it's a little complicated because as much as she loves the fact that it's bringing attention to yuseong bay and allowing new people to go in and out of the town in a frequency that was never seen before, aera can't help but also feel a little resistant to how it's changing the town that she has known since she was young, after all, she was never good at dealing with change to begin with and if she really stops to think about it, she gets anxious about her own lifestyle being affected eventually (esp because of the higher prices that are only getting even higher); on top of it, she doesn't like the overall way that the resort treats the rest of the city, either like they're an annoyance to their business or as if they were part of the entertainment that they were providing.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
as said before, aera isn't very good with changes and she has lots of attachments with the town so she has more reasons to stay than to leave. even if she does say that she dreams of a life out of it (and romanticizes the hell out of it), deep inside she feels like the calm and quiet life of a small town like yuseong bay suits her the most and she doesn't genuinely sees herself anywhere else for now. but then it's hard to say how much those desires is from the way she decided to deal mainly with her grief and how much is from a personal desire/want or even if it really matters in the end.
answer the following, ooc!
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
in no particular order: red velvet - about love ; twice - cruel ; taeyeon - time lapse.
describe your muse’s wardrobe.
cute scrubs, mostly very light/pastel colors, a combination of feminine and comfortable. loves loves to wear oversized sweaters/cardigans (and alikes), even more so when she learned how to make them herself and that's why it's not unusual to see her with rolled up sleeves of whatever she's wearing so her hands are usable, also adores short overalls and high waist bottoms (skirts, shorts, jeans, etc etc), sneakers over anything else but does own a couple of heels for any "fancier" events even if they're very rare.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
lilac, daydream, 🐣
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
really likes crochet, rom coms, matcha bubble tea / really dislikes interrupted naps, almonds, iced americano (and/or most iced coffees)
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
positive traits softspoken, dutiful, caring / negative traits fanciful, unambitious, naive
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
talents has a good memory, high tolerance for spicy food, queen of small talking/starting conversations / shortcomings doesn't know how to say no even when she wants to, can't whistle, trusts people that she shouldn't
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to?
she gives off the same energy as honda tohru from fruits basket.
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
TW DEATH & GRIEF it's been six years since her parents passed away and even though she swears that she's over it, aera obviously isn't. she's still incapable of letting them go. of course that she isn't as depressed as she was during the highest point of her grieving process, but she's also sort of lowkey in denial while clinging to small things that she feels are the only things that she has of her parents (i.e. her house which ends up stretching to yuseong bay as a whole, the necklace she is always wearing that is from her mom's, even her love for match only developed after her mother died, etc etc) so i wished that she'd genuinely move on and cling to her parents' memory in a healthier way/in a way that doesn't stop her from doing things that could want but (maybe) convinces herself that she doesn't (like leaving yuseong bay even if for vacation). END OF TW.
also she's almost ridiculously afraid of ending up alone/feeling lonely so hopefully she'll overcome that and make healthier friendships/be taken less advantage by people just to make them stay 🙏
extra bits !
started crocheting as a way to deal especially with stress related to getting her nurse license and now it's become a habit/hobby, it isn't really unusual to see her crocheting somewhere, even during work if it's a slow day; part of her love language became offering/making sweaters or scarves or keychain sized amigurumis for the people that she cares about (including the community of cats in yuseong bay).
once in a blue moon she gathers enough stuff to sell that at the farmer's market in a very small stall, but it's extremely rare since she has a full time job and usually gives away anything that she makes that isn't for herself anyway.
has a driver's license because her sister insisted that she at least learned how to drive just in case, is pretty ok at it but has no real interest in getting a car for herself.
has a good relationship with her sister even if it'd be easy to assume that they're strained (i.e. big sister doesn't visit often unless it's some special event like chuseok or anything relating to their parents', aera doesn't visit her at all because that would mean leaving yuseong bay, their different personalities, etc etc). they still care for each other and even though big sister can be a little pushy in trying to get aera to move on from the things that she feels like aera needs to, she means well and tries to tone it down when/if aera calls her out in it.
is always wearing a delicate necklace with a pendant of a single (real) pearl that used to be her mother's. the story behind it is that it was aera's father engagement present to her mother, it was even said that he fished that pearl himself and then asked to make a necklace out of it; it's unsure how true this story is but aera believes it wholeheartedly.
had a very serious relationship (wc coming soon!!) that ended up badly and now she's also scared of falling seriously in love again, instead she is more fond of the idea of love and her feelings are completely about the image/idea of the target of her affection that she has in her head instead of the real person, thinking that this way she'll protect herself from genuine feelings + still enjoying her romanticized (and somewhat shallow tbh) idea of love. big consequence of it is that she has at least one new crush every day and then ghosts anyone who shows genuine interest to her.
would love to adopt a cat (or any pet tbh) but feels like her lifestyle is too busy to be able to properly take care of any other living being that isn't the plants in her mother's garden so instead she tries to look after the kittens and any other strays that she meets on the street but then again never fully commits to it.

hi - i'm jo (read more as yo than joe please 💔; 21+, she/her) and i'll be writing the first character from the summer's end subplot: an hamin, who is also my only character, so the follow will come through this blog. i don't mind plotting either here or on discord (@lahrimosa)
hamin is twenty-two, a resident of yuseong bay and kind of a flop... you can access his profile through this link, and while i'm trying to sort out his pinterest board so it's not a whole mess, here is a screenshot of general vibes.
i will be putting the rest under the read more as i kind of yapped </3
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
hamin arrived to yuseong bay at the beginning of june '01, that is - when he was born! he grew up on the island, too, scarcely leaving it, save for a couple swimming competitions left and right, when he could afford it; the longest he's been off the island was the near-twenty months he was stationed mainland during his military service.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
his average day is very... average. hamin wakes rather early in the morning, preferring (and being assigned to; with the way everything works around the bay, i assume that his manager would meet him half-way) morning shifts at lemon marts. he prefers the european style of breakfast; a coffee and a smoke, sometimes had at home and sometimes in front of andante, before his shift starts. there, nine hours pass slowly, welcome and have a nice day doorbell rings constant, but nonetheless, he is a diligent worker. depending on the day, he either delivers groceries to elders of the town who cannot make the trip on their own, or he is picking his brother up from school. he tries to read in his free time, but his attention span is somewhat fried. he also does physical work around the house, having stepped as the de-facto man of the house in his father's absence. over the weekend, he can be seen at 88& bar, or at pierrot lanes.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
feelings about hanhwa resort are conflicted - on one hand, he understands that this offers new job positions to many residents of yuseong bay and a better chance of life. a larger part of him, however, thinks their town isn't built to support the amount of people coming in, or whether the native residents will even be able to survive with the rising prices of living. it's something that tears him at the seams and with it being a conflict within his closest friend group, too, he prefers not to think of it for as long as he can.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
once upon a time, hamin wanted to leave. he had big dreams of being a national athlete, however, those all fell through. that is why nowadays, he wants to stay; a sense of duty to provide for his family and see his brother grow up well anchoring him down.
list your muse's three favorite songs.
love wifi - hong jinyoung, love love love - kim hyunsuk (an unusual liking for trot influenced by his mom's taste), i'm a b - hwasa (it was definitely better waking up and seeing one of the red moon concept photos of her first thing in the morning rather than his cranky superior's face)
describe your muse's wardrobe.
very simple and comfortable before everything else. summer wardrobe consists of cotton shorts and shirts, swimming trunks used as everyday wear, staple fake nike slippers, airy clothes (x, x). winter wardrobe consists mostly of loose-fit jeans and sweatshirts, and sweaters his grandma made (x, x). owns one pair of sneakers, a pair of winter boots, indoor flipflops and aforementioned 'nikes'. a lot of his clothes is old, in a sense that he takes good care of it and buys new clothes only when necessary.
what is a color, word and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
for color, i'd say a beau blue - any of faded blues in general. word is one that is this blog's url - flotsam: debris in the water that was not deliberately thrown overboard, often as a result from a shipwreck or accident. and emoji would be a simple smiling one - 🙂 - as he tries to keep a smile in spite of what life throws at him.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes: swimming (though he would never admit it, insists on hating it instead), cats, walking on the beach - as corny as it sounds. dislikes: gossip, small talk in the mornings, horror movies
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
+ optimistic, friendly, altruistic
- jealous, self-critical, gullible
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
talents: can hold his breath underwater for a prolonged time, really good at tongue-twisters, good listener. shortcomings: will eat cup noodles for days instead of cooking, bites his nails, spends more money on buying food for stray cats than on living expenses
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to?
a bit like eli jang, minus the criminal past and a child. very protective of family and friends and overall kind, non-judgemental and non-confrontational individual.
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
1) quit smoking; 2) keep his friend group together and from falling apart; 3) go back to swimming, even if it's not on a competitive level again; 4) find his kicked out slash runaway father so that his mom can finally go through with the divorce and he can get his money back. from these, the most plausible one is the first one and the one that breaks his heart the most... is the second one.

JAEYONG'S PROMPT ANSWERS
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay? "about the time my mom and dad brought me home from the hospital in jeju city, haha. i'm a lifelong resident; spent my childhood on these farms and beaches and woodlands. i don't think i'd have it any other way, though."
what does an average day look like for your muse? "basically as soon as my eyes open, i'm heading out to check on the bees. it's almost time to relocate them to their natural hives since winter is essentially over, so i like to see how they're doing in the morning when it's cooler. after i tend to them for awhile, i head in and get dressed and then i ride my bike over to andante for some coffee and a pastry. it's kind of a ritual. after breakfast, i head back home and check on the bees again. i might do some weeding around their area or even mow the grass around there. if it's a market stall day, then i'll collect some of the surplus honey and jar it up before heading over to the stall and stocking it up. i'll hang around there for a few hours before, you guessed it, i head back home and tend to my honeybees. it's a tough job, but someone has to do it."
where can your muse usually be found? "at home in my garden, which is where my hives happen to be. if i'm not there, i'm probably at the farmer's market or even the beach."
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort? "please know that i don't use his word lightly, but ... i hate it. little by little, they are ruining this town. not every natural space has to become a concrete jungle, and that's exactly where i see this going. there are important farms and homes and ecosystems here that they disrupt with their very presence. i have no ill will towards the rank and file employees, they're just doing their job. but the corporate entities that oversee hanhwa? yeah, they're not exactly my favorite people."
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay? "i have no desire to leave this town. it's my home; it always has been and it always will be. i'll leave the rest of the world for everyone else. you can find me here when you're done."
list your muse's three favorite songs. gold by wave to earth, wildflower & barley by hozier, dust & gold by arrows to athens.
describe your muse's wardrobe. likes comfortable sweaters and cargo pants, so he can carry his keys, phone, wallet and whatever else he needs without bringing extra storage. lots of cuffed jeans, college sweatshirts, loose cardigans and t-shirts. also owns a few soft yellow bee suits that see a lot of use considering his job.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse? i think the perfect color for jaeyong is a natural soft yellow or gold that mimics early morning sunlight. his associated word would have to be eudaimonia. his most fitting emoji would likely be 🐝.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse. likes: fresh honey, soft sweaters & acoustic guitars. dislikes: arguing, harsh chemicals & feeling pressured.
three positive and negative traits for your muse. positive: gentle, compassionate & insightful. negative: obsessive, aimless, timorous.
three talents and shortcomings for your muse. he's very skilled at caring for bees and at entomology in general. he shares empathy even for the smallest insects and tries to help as many thrive as he can, short of damaging or invasive species. he's fairly charming when it comes to selling honey too, and he sells his charisma almost as much as the product. he's also a very skilled guitar player, and can sometimes be found strumming away in his room in between yard mowing breaks. he can be completely spineless when it comes to people, however, and telling them what he really thinks. he's also a little single-minded when it comes to his lifestyle; the success of his hive is seemingly always at the forefront of his mind and it can lead to him neglecting other aspects of his life. jaeyong is very simplistic too, almost to a fault. he doesn't really aim for much in the way of success and rejects a lot of complicated technologies.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? i would most likely compare him to pierre from stardew valley, at least loosely. i also feel like he's a bit like arrietty from the secret world of arrietty!
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome. i'd love for his distaste for hanhwa to come to a head in some way, whether that be him just accepting it in the long run or actually doing something about it. maybe his happy-go-lucky nature gets tested like never before and he does something underhanded, and then has to spend his time making up for it? i'd also like to build on his confidence a bit, and make him a little more comfortable speaking up. and then there's the whole obsessing over his bees thing. i would love for him to strike a good balance between his work and the people in his life rather than focusing all his attention on the former.

MUN INTRO: hi folks! happy soft opening, jia (s/h, 21+) here. i'll be writing for daeun, and if she reminds you of d*phne from scooby doo... yeah. ims/discord available for plotting- please ask! ♡
MUSE INTRO: baek daeun, 22, also @danidanidaeuni on the interwebs. making a living out of yapping about gruesome murders (read: disappointing her parents). back in town for her mom's birthday dinner... or so she claims, with a camera and idea for a shiny new series in hand.
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
got here literally a couple days ago!!! is staying at her parents', but dear god is she regretting it. is already looking at alternative accommodation. has been doing her best to work off the jetlag, but its really mostly been andante for coffee and back to her place to sleep/work.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
wake up somewhere between 9-10, get caffeine in her. hunt down her latest victim for an interview, or whoever was unlucky enough to be scammed into bringing her around. with luck, she gets some footage. sometimes she's got an episode to record, so the yuseongers are rid of her for a couple hours. stay up til she falls asleep on her laptop. what a life, baby!
where can your muse usually be found?
andante, nursing a drink and going cross-eyed staring at her screen. her blue light glasses make her look like a dweeb, and yes, you can laugh. she has no qualms about asking to share a table <3 / lemon martes, wandering around like a lost ghost. she just likes looking at the displays, ok? / staring dubiously @ pierrot's clown mascot, the lighthouse, antique shop, the old mines, and hovering around the mouth of the woods. its like shes trying to stare them down.... see if something goes bump
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
i don't think she even knows about the resort.. jk! its hard to miss a gigantic building smack dab where she used to go crabbing. there's probably a sense of nostalgia for what things used to be, but she understands that capitalism is a necessary and unstoppable evil. if her parents nag her about marriage one more time, she's booking a room there.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
the expectation's always been that she'll leave--- while she doesn't have a return ticket booked, she's based in the us, and once she's got enough footage, she's gonezo.
extra, extra!
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
sza's saturn (yes, she's always the problem in every relationship)
niki's split (asian diaspora reppppp)
the japanese house's sunshine baby
not a big fan of hearing men talk
describe your muse’s wardrobe.
she likes looking good, and her personal style leans more feminine. doesn't shy away from bright colours, but likes neutrals because she thinks she's taken more seriously like that </3 for brands, she's partial to hermes, chanel (tho she thinks they're losing their touch a little...) and miu miu!
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
purple, why?, 🧋
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes: windy weather, fruit (thinks korea is insane... wtf do u mean grapes are $10), reading comments
dislikes: being rushed, not being organised, a meeting that could've been an email slash call that could've been a text
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
+ compassionate, sincere, enthusiastic
- oblivious, naive, condescending
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
has the ability to make you feel like you're the only two people in the room; a wonderful conversationalist, she's always focused on your conversation. good with names AND faces. you're the center of her universe! insane interpersonal intelligence. / no qualms dropping her (parents) money on things. need a loan? sure! some say its buying affection, but hey, she'd do anything for a friend :) / extremely open-minded. realises when she makes a mistake, and is quick to apologise and do her best to learn from it. someone who can put her pride down easily!
condescends unintentionally, even though she has nothing but the best of intentions. it’s just what being so out-of-touch with the working class folk does to you, unfortunately. / she eats. so. goddamn. slowly. like its actually terrible. she takes an hour to finish one sandwich, because she chews so carefully, and then wants to say something but refuses to talk because her mouth is full. your muse is offered a meal in exchange for an interview? expect to spend at least 2h, MINIMUM with her. in that vein, also no respect for others' time / you've probably caught on by now, but she is always her first thought. she'll take her own sweet time doing things, and hates being put on others' timeline. everything is framed through her experience, which is an extremely privileged one.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? (you can include who you would say they’re alike, and who they would say they’re alike.)
she was heavily inspired by daphne blake from scooby doo, and even her name's a homage to that! daeun would like how she stays true to herself (and has great style!) while still kicking ass! she thinks daphne was ahead of her time, retaining her femininity while still pulling her weight and being useful to the scoobies in her own way.
a relevant goal or arc for your character to overcome.
accept she'll probably never make her parents proud, fully accept and move on from that. also pay her own bills, damn. something something true independence....
anyway. pls like to plot and i'll slide into ims :^)

Welcome to dreamglcw!! a blog for midnightfms and penned by Liz ( 21+, cst ). Template credit to: sup_edits.
Introducing . . . M O O N C H A E Y O U N G . . .
Moon Chaeyoung, 28 year old single mother, resident of yuseong. Receptionist at Hanhwa Resort. For more information click here.
🐇 answer the following prompts, either ooc or ic!
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
Chaeyoung arrived a year ago from the capital with nothing more than a broken heart and a baby on the way, a small bag with her clothes and barely enough money to find a place to stay. a runaway looking for a place to belong, for a place to raise her kid, a place to call home...and now a year later she can proudly say she did. yuseong bay became her home when her own gave her the back.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
Her days always start early, between tending to her son and preparing to work it is safe to say that mornings are chaotic in the small home, but somehow it always works. she then leaves her son with the older woman who welcomed into her own home not so long ago to. "It's good to have company" the elder always assured her each morning, grateful for something to do, loving the kid as a grandchild of her own before shooing Chaeyoung away. Goodbyes always last long so she has to rush to the bus station and to the Hanhwa Resort where she works as a receptionist. A perfect smile and welcoming aura until the time to go home comes. With tired steps she picks her baby up and makes their way back home, filled with laughter and babbles that soon will be words. It is hard, but oh so perfect.
where can your muse usually be found?
Chaeyoung is easily found at the andante cafe, be it on her way to work or on her way back home, needing an extra pump of sugar to make it through the day. Aside from it, she is more of a homebody, enjoying the simple life in the small apartment with her son or in the park nearby.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
Grateful, that is the first word that comes to mind to Chaeyoung when thinking about the resort as it is the place that puts a roof over her head and feeds her baby.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
Yuseong bay has slowly become a home for Chaeyoung and from what she has seen she hopes it will be a permanent home for Jisung, her kid. So, she dreams of affording a better place, bigger, to home the family she build here.
🐇 answer the following, ooc!
list your muse's three favorite songs.
To my youth - Bol4
She's in the rain - The rose
The swan lake - Tchaikovsky
describe your muse's wardrobe.
Comfort over fashion. As a single mother she prioritizes clothes that would be used in more times and that she wouldn't mind dirting rather than the previous style she would have used as a teen. Though her uniform is a diferent side, always prim and proper, no wrinkle in sight acompanied with a styled hair.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
white, stubborn, 🥀
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes: classical music, sweet drinks and food, animals
dislikes: smell of smoke, her parents, sourness
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
+resilient +adaptable + affectionate
-detached -volatile -mistrustful
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
ballet, she was once a runner up for the national ballet and it's still in her bones, she has an affinity for languages and can easily pick them up with just a bit of practice, emboidery is a new one she has recently discovered as her kid ventures in the first steps.
shortcomings: after everything that happened, she has trust issues with those surrounding herself and her son, friendships are now hard to form and mantain and her stubborness shines brighter than the sun from day to day.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? (you can include who you would say they're alike, and who they would say they're alike.)
tba
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
search / find peace. She is still too hurt by the ghosts of her past and the fire of anger has yet to fade, she is in search for a home while still thinking bitterly of the word. Chaeyoung has a lot to unpack before reaching that destination but one day maybe she will finally open once again to the world and not just one or two people around her.
🐇 B I O G R A P H Y.
Born with a silver spoon, Chaeyoung is the only daughter and was the heir to the Moon Empire. Ever since she was a baby whatever she wanted she got without even having to ask for it, as a child her room had been filled with toys and during her teenage years her closet had been filled with brand names only. It was a dream life for many, yet in exchange of all those luxuries she was expected to be the best, another thing for her parents to boast about, and she played her part really well.
She became interested in ballet at a young age and it became her whole world. Her eyes sparkled and her mother was more than happy to sign her up in a prestigious academy for it. Chaeyoung dived into that world while keeping her academics as top of her classes, sleepless nights with private tutors came and went but it was worth it in her eyes as she got to compete in the Asian Grand Prix and other competitions earning the attetion of the Korean National Ballet. She was doing wonderful in this new place slowly rising ranks until she became the first dancer, the prima ballerina of the National Ballet and that is when her dreams came crashing down.
She was pregnant.
And she was on her own, the father of the baby was gone and so were her supportive parents who claimed she was a shame to the family once they found out. With nothing more than what she could carry on her bags, Chaeyoung left that life behind moving to Daegu to start again, just her baby and her.
...1 year later.
Chaeyoung pregnancy ran smoothly thanks to a neighbor that took care of her and treated her as if she was her own daughter, the caring mother she never had. She gave birth to a healthy baby boy Jisung who is now almost 1. Even if she struggles with her work, her home is always filled with love.
🐇 P E R S O N A L I T Y.
The Chaeyoung of today is very different from the one during her teen years. The girl who never had to work for anything is now working any job she can, learning new things that can be done at home so she can work while staying close to her baby. long gone is the childish chaeyoung replaced by one driven by love, one that never gives up. her fingers are pricked from her work as a seamstress for the theater but she takes pride in them. A bit emotional detached, takes long to earn her trust and for her to open up, keeps new people at arm's length afraid they would leave her again.

INTRODUCING HELGA. hello everyone, i'm helga! i'm 25+, prefer she/her pronouns and am in the est timezone! i play rain & jaeyong who are portrayed by lisa and baekhyun respectively. this blog is my main one, while jaeyong is on a sideblog, so a lot of my correspondence will be from this one. you can also find me on discord @ storiiies, so feel free to hit me up there!
INTRODUCING RAIN & JAEYONG. my first muse is the lovely rain itsarakun who is 27 years old and is meant to be a visitor, though she is working as a fitness trainer at yuseong community center, so her roots maybe already be taking place in yuseong bay after staying for 3 years now. her profile page can be found here! my second muse is cha jaeyong, and he is a 31 year old lifelong resident of yuseong bay. he works as a beekeeper, offering pollination services to local farms, but he also sells surplus honey at a farmer's market stall. his profile can be found here!
RAIN'S PROMPT ANSWERS
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay? "it was, ohhh, about three years ago now? it was so foggy, i could barely see the bay, but i still felt more at home here than i had in awhile. i had to get away from chiang mai ... a bad relationship, you see. i'll spare you the details, but my family always used to come on vacation to yuseong bay and there was someone here i was friends with when i was younger. i decided to go out on a limb and reach out to them and long story short, here i am."
what does an average day look like for your muse? "i wake up pretty early and i'll usually have some breakfast or a shake, if i don't grab something from the café on the way to work. then i head to the community center, or to the gym more specifically, usually with my playlist at full volume by that point, but i digress. i'll spend a good hour stretching before my shift starts, because you do not want to experience a muscle giving out or locking up on you when you're holding a heavy weight. then i'll start working with my usual clients, walking them through certain pacing issues, showing them new techniques or spotting for them. then i might join in on a dance or baking class, depending on what's going on at the center that day? sometimes i'll stop by the bar on my way home to have a drink with a couple of friends, or i'll meet with my pai gow club to play a few games to wind down after work. then it's pretty much home to have dinner, maybe read a little bit and then i'll head to bed."
where can your muse usually be found? "i can't lie, i spend a lot of my time at the community center. whether it's at the gym or in the pool, at one of the other classes or just out on the grounds. it's a nice, peaceful place to be."
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort? "i guess i'm not really sure? on the one hand, people who stay there come to the gym sometimes and need a trainer, so it kicks more business my way, but ... i also can't help but feel like it's slowly taking away some of the magic of yuseong bay? commercializing it, i guess you could say. i feel bad for the people it's affecting negatively."
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay? "i would just like some time, i suppose. some would argue i've had more than enough, but the truth is, i'm still finding out who i am and what i want to do. i hate when people act like i should have it all figured out. i don't think that will ever happen, but i hope being here can help."
list your muse's three favorite songs. slow dancing in a burning room by john mayor, if you love her by tokyo tea room & fingers crossed by lauren spencer-smith.
describe your muse's wardrobe. frequently pairs hoodies, jeans and sneakers if she’s not strolling around in vibrantly colored sportswear. her fashion choices are fairly basic, prioritizing comfort and breathability over style. when she does dress up, she likes an elegant a-line silhouette.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse? i think an ashy grayish blue fits her because of its difficulty in placing as it pertains to emotion or mood. the word i think fits her the most is 'drapetomania'. the emoji that is best suited for rain is probably 🌧.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse. likes: exercise, cold water & cats. dislikes: scarecrows, gossip & crash dieting.
three positive and negative traits for your muse. positive: amicable, energetic & sensible. negative: stubborn, flighty & distant.
three talents and shortcomings for your muse. she's rather adept at helping people build muscle or get active, as she's very encouraging and energetic in the gym. she's also a talented dancer, always volunteering to help out in dance classes held at the community center. rain has a talent for pai gow too, having been an avid player since she was a child, and she does very well in tournaments. her biggest shortcoming is her uncommunicative nature, as she often would rather suffer in silence than tell people close to her something is wrong. she's also prone to running away from a difficult situation rather than facing it head on and resolving things. she can also be a little defense if she feels people are being accusatory towards her.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? i definitely think rain has a similarity to leah from stardew valley, but i also draw parallels between her and sophie hatter in how mild-mannered, sensible and humble they both are.
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome. i would like to develop rain's ability to trust other people with her feelings in all facets of life, as it's arguably her biggest struggle. i would also like for her to let go of all the anger and resentment she feels for her ex since it's really only hurting her in the long run.
if you would like to plot with rain, please like this post and i'll come bug you! i'll be posting jaeyong's prompt answers separately on his blog 💟

short mun introduction. hellooo i'm tan (they/them, gmt +10) and jihyung here is my only muse so far! if u would like to plot, please give this post a like and i'll msg you 🫶
short muse introduction. chu jihyung, 30, asst. manager at hanhwa resort (🍅💥). moved here 3-4 months ago from a stone's throw away over at jeju city, but he isn't entirely new to the place as this is his dad's hometown and he spent his summer/winter breaks here almost yearly until he graduated high school. i've got jihyung's profile here, bulletpoint bio here, and something of a moodboard here 8)
possible plots. fellow hanhwa staff!!!, childhood friends, family friends, distant cousins, and so on he's always out and about town so i'm sure we'll figure something out <3
prompt answers are under the cut!
SET A
list your muse's three favorite songs.
big fan of ballads commonly belted out at the noraebang: same thought by shin hye sung, rainy season by jung in, song request by lee so ra ft. suga
describe your muse's wardrobe.
at work: cotton dress shirt, slacks, and a coat, all pristinely-ironed. appearance is always crisp and absolutely neatㅡa product of rigorous standards from tenure at a five-star international hotel chain + michelin star resto
off work: likes his fabrics soft and comfortable, fitting lean (because he's broad enough as it stands) but not too form-hugging. no sense of color-matching so he gravitates towards black and white staples. been watching men's fashion tiktoks though so maybe there's hope for him yet? victim of the gene that makes guys like flashy sports shoes
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
chestnut (#954535). sturdy. 🏠.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes: effort, sincerity, compassion / dislikes: insolence/thoughtlessness to the detriment of others, passing the blame/not taking accountability, malicious gossipmongering
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
positive: reliable, decisive, earnest / negative: workaholic, critical, strict
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
talents: able to connect with people easily, remembers details about people (not necessarily just in his line of work! more of a personal trait that he just gets to capitalize), and not to sound like a cv but his sense of composure/patience/alertness under pressure is otherwordly
shortcomings: too focused on work pls breathe! live a little!, tries to give too much of himself to too many things at once, makes other people's business/problems his own even if they don't ask/need/want him to
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
personally: jihyung's spent most of his life putting his younger siblings and his mother first—as archetypal a third parent as they come TW / DEATH especially after his father passed away END TW so now that the baby sibs are All Grown Up and mom's found a new life companion in the form of hotshot dentist bf (aka jihyung doesn't have to worry about them (as much) anymore), he's slowly acclimating to the concept of living for himself! and working on not feeling like such an empty nester at 30 years young
professionally: make the most of his new opportunity/position @ hanhwa and learn as much as he can about front-of-house operations. as someone newly in a managerial role he'd also just! like to able to use his position of leadership/authority to cultivate a good working environment and hopefully make a positive impact where he's at. call him naive but he's really kind of set on making that happen
SET B
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
the literal answer would be when he was about six months old! his parents had settled down in jeju city (mom's hometown) but yuseong is where his dad grew up and where his paternal grandparents lived. dad brought him over as soon as he was deemed ok to travel as a baby so his paternal grandparents could see him
as mentioned previously he also spent nearly every summer/winter break in town alongside his siblings, so he was in yuseong quite a lot growing up!
more recently though he'd moved here as a bonafide resident just last year, early december, following his employment to hanhwa resort (🍅💥). staff housing was offered but his grandparents' house was just accumulating dust TW / DEATH now that both of them had passed END TW so he took it up instead. jihyung has a lot of fond memories there.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
starts his day reaaaallyyy early and is one of those people who are just unironically kind of cool with being up at 4am. unabashed abt his obsession with reaching his daily step goal so he starts the day by jogging/walking; delegates about an hour for it (plus around 20 mins for the assorted chitchat and small talk he's sure to encounter on the way). should be back at home by 5:30am to prepare for work, and by 6:30am he's out the door.
work day starts at 8am officially but he'll be doing his rounds beginning 7am, inspecting the cleanliness/condition/readiness of the facilities + checking in with the staff. he's very hands-on and present; has a bit of a rep for being very strict/eagle-eyed but if people have concerns they wouldn't hesitate to approach him. keeps his office door open for that very purpose but you wouldn't even need to go to his office to ask because he's always on the floor helping out with operations. leaves most of the mtgs with corporate/"highly important" shareholder emails to the big boss general manager but he's always being told that he'll have to learn to tolerate the corporate formalities if he intends to 📈 move up 📈 in the industry
his strength and background is primarily in dining service/food and beverage operations so he's trying to expose himself more in rooms/other recreational outlets to be well-rounded! does have general experience from working at the marriott resort in jeju city but he's a lot closer to it here in hanhwa now sooo there's a lot for him to pick up and learn. divides his workday accordingly. it's challenging but he enjoys it.
(since he starts his workday early he clocks out right on the dot for that quote unquote work-life balance)
after work: most often catches a meal and/or a drink with other hanhwa staff/old friends from childhood/new acquaintances ever since he moved. even if he's having dinner alone he'd rather dine outside than at home. ends the day by checking/replying to the fam/siblings group chat or falling asleep to the tv/music/a podcast
where can your muse usually be found?
boring but true answer's the resort 🚶♂️ outside of it, he jogs by the coast and residential areas almost every morning + spends dinnertime at the local food spots or by the coast. does his errands during weekends so he'll be in town to pay for his bills or at lemon martes for his weekly groceries
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
having been raised in a family whose main fare heavily relied on touristification (mom and dad were hotel chefs and were able to make a stable living because of the industry), ngl he comes from a bit of a biased background/perspective. he knows it's about the corporate bottomline at the end of the day but he sort of just dulls the buzz at the back of his head (what one might call a conscience) by thinking there's good that comes from it, too. he's met a lot of good people here. it's not perfect but realistically speaking not much else is
in that vein he tries his best to be people-oriented in terms of the culture they're building here and "give back" to some capacity, i.e. actually respecting and encouraging work-life balance, hiring more island/town locals instead of shipping in folks from other cities, partnering with and sourcing from local businesses, etc
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
he's got more motivations to stay, focal among them his career growth. it's his first managerial role and he's got a good mentor here so even though it's an island property, he knows it's got a good place in his future/the big picture. also heavily swayed by the convenience/comforts/nostalgia of living in town. he's what u would call a simple guy with zero frills so everything's just right for him, and he'd loved all the parts of his childhood that he'd spent here, so for the time being, he's intends to stay.
#yshqs:intro#( absurdly late SORRY i wanted to make the prompt answers short like. SO BAD. there was an internal struggle. however the yapper won#( ANYWHOOO pretty pls let's write <3

hi! it’s mai (she/her, gmt+8) and i’ll be writing for lee harin, miss ballerina turned nobody. under the cut is a little tldr about her and the prompts.
tldr: lee harin’s got a privileged life back in seoul—a prima ballerina in the making—until her father suddenly got arrested for fraud and embezzlement, causing the whole family to go bankrupt. her mother decided to reach out to an estranged relative in yuseong bay and that’s how she ended up here.
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay?
she came to yuseong bay with her mother two weeks after her father got arrested, which is roughly around mid february 2024. her mother decided to reach out to an estranged relative (her older sister) who stays in the town and once she agreed about having them over, her mother wasted no time and insisted that harin came along. she didn’t like the idea of moving into a small town at first, even more when she heard that she would be staying at her aunt’s house. but then again, what choice does she have anyways? if anything she’s glad her aunt is kind enough to help them out amidst the tragedy—not that she’d ever admit it out loud though.
what does an average day look like for your muse?
harin spends most of her day doing nothing. it’s not like there’s much to do around yuseong anyways, but really, what else is she supposed to do here? her mother doesn’t seem to care about her loitering around most of the time, nor her aunt (with the exception of her cousin, who often insists that harin must help out around the house since she doesn’t even work or care to get a job), so she takes it as a sign that it’s okay to just exist and do whatever she wants to do. after all it’s not harin’s fault she still gets the princess treatment even when she’s no longer deemed as one.
where can your muse usually be found?
as someone who lived in the city, obviously she’s more drawn to hanhwa resort more than anything else in the town. it’s the only place that reminds her of seoul in a way, of a life she’s forced to leave behind after shit went down with her family. harin is often seen hanging around the resort—she does get mistaken as a tourist every now and then, usually by another tourist, and sometimes she’d play along and hang out with them if she likes them enough. harin also frequents 88& bar and would likely pop up out of nowhere if there’s any town get-togethers or events. since she has too much time on her hands, she’s kinda all over the place too.
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort?
having arrived in town a little before the resort’s official opening, harin finds it interesting that a small town like this has such an exquisite resort. it’s the first thing that caught her eyes when she first came here, although she’s quick to learn from her aunt that some of the locals aren’t too happy with it. as an outsider, she thinks it’s a great addition to the town.
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay?
if harin was to be honest, she doesn’t want to stay another second in this godforsaken town. on the other hand, life in yuseong bay isn’t as bad as she thought it would be. sure, this fucking town bores her sometimes, but harin’s got everything she needs right here—a place to stay, somebody that looks after her (re: puts up with her princess behavior), her mother. plus she doesn’t even need to work, courtesy of her aunt thinking that a guest should never be made to work as long as they are under her care. for now harin’s comfortable with how she’s living, but there’s always a part of her that longs for the once busy, fast-paced life she had in seoul.
-
list your muse’s three favorite songs.
her top three songs would be: what was i made for? - billie eilish / i like the way you kiss me - artemas / say yes to heaven - lana del rey
describe your muse’s wardrobe.
harin likes to keep her clothing simple but stylish. she loves wearing mini skirts and dresses and usually goes for soft and bright colors. lee doona is the inspo for her wardrobe so whatever she wears to be honest!
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse?
dust storm (#eecfcc), bitter, 🙄
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse.
likes: getting her ways, the sound of rain, dressing up / dislikes: not getting her ways, nosy people, eating alone
three positive and negative traits for your muse.
positive traits: alluring, sophisticated, outspoken / negative traits: distant, cunning, vindictive
three talents and shortcomings for your muse.
talents: not giving a fuck (even more now that she has nothing to lose), has a good eye for fashion (one thing she’s gonna do is look good no matter how shitty her life is!), great attention to detail (for someone who doesn’t really give a fuck about anything, harin notices everything—she’s just really good at acting dumb sometimes) / shortcomings: believing that every man is for himself (she thinks everyone is like her, only concerned about their own interests, so she doesn’t feel as guilty when she ditches anyone because they’d probably do the same), tends to make everything about her (if you think your life is shitty enough, no, she’d argue that she’s got it worse!), doesn’t express her feelings openly (she’s got a habit of bottling shit up and dealing with it quietly because she was taught that showing emotions is weak, a habit she picks up from her father)
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to?
she’s a mix of baek harin (pyramid game) and lee doona (doona!), hence her name lee harin if it’s not that obvious yet… a little bit of lee eunyoo (sweet home) and han mone (the escape of the seven) too.
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome.
she’s very distrustful of people around her, so it would be nice if she learns to let people in and make some real friends instead of just using them for her personal gain. she also needs to learn to let things go! sure, it hasn’t been that long since she left seoul, but harin couldn’t seem to move on from her past, somehow still hung up on the idea of what ifs or what could have beens. it’d be nice if she doesn’t dwell too much on the past and start living in the moment—shit already happened anyways, it’s not like she could turn back time and change it or something, am i right?

WELCOME HOME, KIM SEOHAN.
our town hall archives show he is a local and a EAST VIEW resident, living on PINETREE STREET NO. 4, and he is currently a PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL PLAYER / ASSISTANT BASEBALL COACH AT EAST VIEW PREP.
🡒 ready to access his files? read on below ...
seohan is a “rainbow baby”; considered a miracle to his parents after they suffered from fertility issues and miscarriages. he grew up an only child and very loved, perhaps to a fault.
it was his grandfather who originally got him into baseball; they used to watch games on tv together or go in person to local matches. seohan’s grandfather coached his first little league team and instilled a lifelong passion into him.
maybe it was all the love from his parents; it somehow turned into pressure that seohan put on himself to be the best in everything and anything that he did. he wanted to make them proud, he wanted to hear their praise and bragging about him. he was a straight-a student, he was on the varsity team in school, he’s handsome, his girlfriend was the prettiest girl in school. he could not falter or slip; he’d spend long nights studying and beat himself up if he got any marks off of an exam.
seohan left gaenari and headed to seoul, enrolling in SNU for athletic training, only to have his studies cut short by being scouted for a KBO futures team while playing there. he ended up close to home again on the hanhwa eagles, playing the sport he loved professionally. he quickly gained public attention for his good looks as well as his skill, meanwhile back home he had become one of the town’s legendary success stories. perhaps he was something of a hero, then.
for a while, seohan was riding high. he had a beautiful girlfriend who he loved dearly, endorsements and sponsorships that kept his lifestyle more than comfortable, and played his favorite game for a living. it was expected that he’d be pulled up to the regular KBO league, offered a huge contract in exchange for his loyalty to the team, rather than risk him getting scooped up by another once his rookie contract expired. but that would never happen.
he had been called up for a major league game, his first ever. perhaps it was nerves, or just a reality check when things were going too well, but seohan found himself scrambling for first after a botched hit sent the ball right toward the second baseman. he slid, but the movement was miscalculated; seohan had to be carted off the field into the locker room, where x-rays confirmed his worst fears: it wasn’t a broken bone, it was something worse.
the next day he finds out at the hospital that his season is over; an ACL and meniscus tear that needs surgery immediately. so much for that contract, that breakout game; now seohan was struggling just to get back out onto the diamond. his girlfriend, who swore up and down to help and support him during this time, took one look at the scars on his knee and disappeared, leaving a note that she no longer felt attracted to him after seeing his injury. brokenhearted but in need of more assistance than his friends in daejeon could provide, seohan made his way back home to gaenari.
now, he works on his recovery with help from his parents. he coaches the high school baseball team as a favor to the coach who first saw his potential at that age, and perhaps so he doesn’t have time to wallow in how far he’s fallen. he hates seeing pity in their eyes, he hates the feeling that he’s disappointed everyone by not making it to the top. but all he can do is continue on.
