Your Background Story: Sumin
was born in Busan, South Korea. Since young, she was a lively child.
She loved to move her body to music and sing. Her parents, however,
found that her interest to music and entertainment was a waste of time
and wanted her to study properly and in turn grow up to be a successful
businesswoman. But Sumin didn't like that idea. She had always wanted to
be a singer, watching the many different idols sing so well. They were
her role models. She was only able to practice her singing when her
parents weren't at home. At other times, Sumin would go to a park near
her house and sing out loud there. Sometimes her parents would hear her
singing and reprimand her. But Sumin didn't really mind the scolding. It
was worth it since she gets to sing to her heart's content. Her mother
knew how to speak mandarin, so she would make Sumin practice writing and
speaking in chinese. Sumin found it hard to cope with the language at
first, but eventually she was able to speak and write in chinese
properly. One tragic day, Sumin was out in the park practicing her
singing again until one of the neighbours called out to her to tell her
the bad news. Apparently, her parents had met with a car accident on the
way home and were sent to the nearest hospital. It wasn't known if they
were dead or alive yet. Sumin was shocked. She rushed to the hospital
immediately upon receiving the news. But it was too late. Her parents
did not survive the accident. Of course, the incident made her so sad
that she couldn't bear to eat for days. She even blamed herself for not
listening to her parents when they were alive. She was eventually sent
to Seoul to live with her aunt who was her father's older sister.
Sumin's aunt treated her very well and gradually, Sumin got over her
parents' deaths. So currently, Sumin is living with her aunt in Seoul.
◎ My Personality
If you would describe yourself in three adjectives, what would it be?: Hyper, Friendly, Charismatic
Personality: Sumin
can be described as an overly-hyper and talkative person. If a topic
that she is well-informed of is given to her, she could talk for eons on
that topic. She is known to be optimistic. Whenever something bad
happens, she tries to stay happy and gets over it quickly. Like the
incident regarding her parents' deaths. Even though she seems like a
person that could never be sad, she is actually very emotional. She gets
angry and sad easily. But the thing about her is, even though she gets
angry or sad easily, it goes away as easily as well. It comes like a
wave. Getting very angry over something minor but getting over it in
just a short period of time. Sumin finds that that personality of hers
can be good yet bad. But nevertheless, she tries to control her emotions
by not getting angry or sad over the smallest things. Other than that,
Sumin is able to 'pick up' people's energies, moods and thoughts. This
ability serves her well; her intuition about people is quite often
correct. Her knack of knowing people's issues before they even open
their mouths attracts them to her. The difficulty with this, though, is
that she tend to absorb their emotions - negative as well as positive.
Well every good thing has a bad side to it, right? People tend to turn
to Sumin when they need a shoulder to cry on. Friends turn to her when
they are in trouble, knowing that her sensitive and compassionate touch
will lighten their load.
