SEONGWOO IS A KIND-HEARTED, SHY SOUL THAT DOESN'T REALLY APPROACH OTHERS. HE'S RELATIVELY RESERVED AND ONLY TALKS TO MOST PEOPLE ON A SUPERFICIAL LEVEL. GETTING CLOSE TO HIM CAN BE DIFFICULT. HE HAS WHAT YOU CALL, TRUST ISSUES.  BUT HE DOES HIS BEST TO BE AS FRIENDLY AS HE CAN. HE SPENDS MOST OF HIS TIME TEACHING AT VARIOUS STUDIOS, HE'S ALSO A BACKUP DANCER/CHOREOGRAPHER FOR SOME OF HIS IDOL FRIENDS. WHEN HE'S NOT WORKING, HE SPENDS TIME VOLUNTEERING TO HELP KIDS IN NEED. HE ALSO DONATES HIS TIME TO FEEDING AND CARING FOR THOSE IN WELFARE. AND WHEN HE'S NOT DOING ONE OF THOSE THINGS, HE'S SPENDING TIME WITH THE SPARKLING LIGHT OF HIS LIGHT, LEE SUNMI. AND OF COURSE, NOT TOO MENTION THE TWO SMALLER STARS, DIABLO AND OZZI.

 

IN A CROWDED, SLIGHTLY RUN DOWN PART OF SEOUL, A FAMILY OF THREE WERE TRYING THEIR BEST TO LIVE A QUALITY LIFE. SEONGWOO WAS THE PRODUCT OF TWO TEENAGERS JUST HAVING FUN. HE WAS THEIR "ACCIDENT." THEY TRIED THEIR BEST TO BE QUALITY PARENTS, CARING FOR THEIR NEWBORN SON. BUT WITHOUT THEIR PARENTS HELP, IT WAS HARD TO BARELY TAKE CARE OF ALL OF BABY SEONGWOO'S NEEDS. AS HE GREW UP, SEONGWOO BECAME AWARE OF THE DAILY ARGUMENTS HIS PARENTS WOULD HAVE. THOUGH HE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY HE SENSED IT WAS ABOUT HIM. EVERY TIME HE WASN'T IN THEIR VICINITY, THEY WOULD SHOUT, YELL, AND GET AGGRESSIVE, TO THE POINT OF GETTING PHYSICAL. HOWEVER, WHEN HE WAS AROUND THE ATMOSPHERE WAS CALMER. ONE DAY AFTER SCHOOL WHEN HIS PARENTS PICKED HIM UP, THEY WENT DOWN THE SUBWAY. WHEN THEN TRAIN CAME BY AND THE INFLOW OF PASSENGERS OF THE TRAIN SCRAMBLED OUT, HE LOST GRIP OF HIS MOTHER'S TOUCH AND GOT SEPERATED FROM HIS MOTHER AS A CROWD OF PEOPLE RUSHED FROM ALL SIDES. COMPARABLE TO THOSE WAYS ZOMBIES RUN IN HORDES. PEOPLE GETTING OFF AND ON PUSHED AND PULLED THE LITTLE ONE AROUND, AND SOMEHOW HE GOT SWEPT AWAY IN THE TRAIN, WHILE HIS FAMILY DIDN'T. BEING A QUIET BOY, HE DIDN'T SPEAK UP OR ANYTHING, HE JUST STOOD AT THE SIDE OF DOOR AND WAITED FOR THE SUBWAY TO COME TO IT'S STOP. THE YOUNGING ONLY THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE A COUPLE SECONDS-- HE WAS WRONG. SECONDS TURNED INTO MINUTES, AND HE ENDED UP ON THE OTHER SIDE SEOUL, A PLACE HE NEVER KNEW THAT EXISTED.

SEONGWOO WAS AROUND FOUR, SO HE WAS JUST AT THE AGE WHERE HE SHOULD BE LEARNING ABOUT CONTACTING POLICE AND WHAT NOT, BUT HE ACTUALLY NEVER LEARNED THAT. TO HIM, HIS PARENTS TAUGHT HIM THAT THE POLICE DON'T DO MUCH FOR PEOPLE IN HIS SITUATION. SO HE LEARNED TO RELY ON THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM. SO THE CONCEPT OF ASKING FOR HELP, WAS SOMEWHAT FOREIGN TO HIM. WHEN HE HAD GOTTEN OFF THE TRAIN, HE WAITED FOR A WHILE TO FIND HIS MOM. BUT AS HE WAITED FOR WHAT IT FELT LIKE HOURS-- IN REALITY JUST MINUTES PAST BY. ANOTHER WOMAN HAPPEN TO SPOT THE LONELY CHILD AND TOLD HIM TO FOLLOW HER. THAT WAY, SHE CAN HELP HIM FIND HIS MOTHER. UNFORTUNATELY, THAT WAS THE LAST DAY HE SAW THEM. FORTUNATELY THE LADY HERSELF DIDN'T DO ANYTHING HARMFUL TO HIM, AS HE WAS TAKEN TO A POLICE STATION. AS THE BOY WAS PLACE UNDER THE CUSTODY OF THE POLICE, THEY BEGAN TO SEARCH AROUND FOR HIS PARENTS. FLYERS WERE PLACED AROUND TOWN, HIS PICTURE WAS PLACED IN NEWSPAPERS TOO. BUT NOTHING CAME UP. DID HIS PARENTS TRULY ABANDON HIM?  ALL HE WANTED WAS HIS UMMA AND HIS APPA. AFTER A FEW WEEKS, NOTHING CAME UP AND SEONGWOO WAS TAKEN IN BY A FEMALE OFFICER. HE WOULD BEGIN TO START HIS NEW LIFE.

SEONGWOO SURNAME WAS CHANGED TO ONG, AND SINCE HE DIDN'T START SCHOOL YET, HE NEVER GOTTEN AROUND TO WRITING HIS FULL NAME. SO HE DOESN'T KNOW HIS ORIGINAL SURNAME. HIS NEW LIFE WAS VASTLY DIFFERENT. AS HIS NEW MOTHER AND FATHER WERE BOTH DEDICATED OFFICERS IN THE POLICE FORCE, HIS STEP-FATHER BEING THE SHERIFF, HIS NEW PARENTS NEVER HAD A CHILD BEFORE. THEY WERE NEW TO PARENTING AND DIDN'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO RAISE A KID WHO WAS ALREADY FOUR. THEY BEGAN TO RAISE HIM IN A STRICT MANNER. IT WAS JUST SCHOOL, HOME, CHORES, STUDY, AND SLEEP. HIS PARENTS WERE ALWAYS WARY OF OTHER PARENTS AND HIS FRIENDS, THEREFORE HE NEVER VISITED FRIENDS. DUE TO THIS, HE ONLY STAYED CLOSE TO THREE PEOPLE THAT WOULD BE HIS FOREVER RIDE OF DIE. THROUGHOUT MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL, SEONGWOO WAS PRESSURED TO CONSTANTLY STAY ON TOP OF HIS CLASSES. IF HE WASN'T EARNING STRAIGHT A'S, IT MEANT A BEATEN AND PUNISHMENT. IF HE WAS IN THE TOP FIVE, IT MEANT VIDEO GAMES, HIS PHONE--A FLIP PHONE, AND COMPUTER WERE ALL TAKEN. HE WAS MORE OR LESS FORCED TO DO COMMUNITY SERVICE AND HELP OUT AT THE POLICE STATION IF HE COULD. HIS LIFE WAS CONTROLLED AT EVERY SINGLE MOMENT, EVEN AT SCHOOL, HIS PARENTS MADE SURE TO KNOW HIS TEACHERS. THINGS GOT WORSE WHEN HE STARTED GETTING SCOUTED BY DIFFERENT COMPANIES. WHENEVER SEONGWOO PONDERED TO HIS PARENTS ABOUT LETTING HIM TRY ACTING, DANCING OR SINGING, HE WAS BOMBARDED. "DANCING IS NOT GOING TO PAY. YOU KNOW HOW MANY ACTORS FAIL AND CAN'T FIND JOBS. YOU AREN'T A GOOD SINGER, STICK TO A REAL JOB." THOSE WERE JUST A TASTE OF WHAT HE HEARD. BUT AFTER WATCHING A DANCE PERFORMANCE AT HIS SCHOOL, HE DECIDED TO JOIN THE B-BOYING CLUB. IT WAS THE ONLY SLIVER OF FREEDOM HE HAD IN HIS LIFE. HIS EXCUSE TO HIS PARENTS WAS THAT HE WAS DOING STUDENT COUNCIL ACTIVITIES AFTERSCHOOL-- WHICH WAS A HALF LIE, HALF TRUTH. OH YEAH, HE PRESSURED INTO JOINING STUDENT COUNCIL TOO. 

HE WAS ABLE TO COVER THIS UP OVER THE YEARS, AND IN FACT HE NEVER GOT CAUGHT. HIS PARENTS WERE TOO BUSY WITH WORK TOO MONITOR HIM FOR HIS AFTERSCHOOL MEETINGS TO CATCH HIM. OVER THOSE FOUR YEARS, SEONGWOO BOUNCED AROUND IN DIFFERENT CLUBS. HE LEARNED NOT ONLY B-BOYING, BUT SOME BASIC CONTEMPORARY, BALLET, AND BREAK DANCING. AND WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR PERFORMANCES, HE SIMPLY JUST TOLD HIS PARENTS THAT HE WAS JUST DOING ROTATIONS AS STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT TO VOLUNTEER AT THESE EVENTS. WHEN SENIOR YEAR CAME TO AN END, HIS PARENTS WERE NUDING HIM TO GO TO UNIVERSITY TO STUDY IN ENGINEERING, BUSINESS, LAW, OR SOMETHING IN THE MEDICAL FIELD. THOUGH, SEONGWOO DECIDED TO TAKE A STAND FOR ONCE. HE ENROLLED AT AN TOP ART SCHOOL IN SEOUL, AS HE WANTED TO DO THEATRICAL AND DANCE. HIS PARENTS WERE QUITE UPSET AT HIM, BUT THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, HE HAD ALREADY SIGNED THE PAPERS AND WAS COMMITTED TO JOINING THE SCHOOL. SEONGWOO THOUGHT THAT THEY COULDN'T TOUCH HIM, BUT THE DAY HE CAME HOME, IT WAS HIT AFTER HIT. SEONGWOO THRASHED AROUND LIKE A RAGDOLL. HIS DAD TOOK IT TOO FAR BY ACCIDENTALLY BREAKING HIS TIBIA. UPON DISCOVERING THIS, HIS PARENTS TOOK HIM TO THE HOSPITAL AND LIED ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. THEY SAID HE FELL DOWN THE STAIRS AT THEIR APARTMENT COMPLEX. AND SEONGWOO WENT ALONG WITH IT. FIRST OF ALL, WHO WOULD BELIEVE HIM IF HE TOLD PEOPLE THAT TWO VERY WELL-RESPECTED OFFICERS WERE ABUSING HIM. AND EVEN IF THEY DID, HE HAD NO BRUISES OR SCRATCHES TO SHOW FOR IT, JUST HIS STUPID BROKEN LEG. HOWEVER, WHEN THE DOCTOR SPOKE TO SEONGWOO IN PRIVATE, HE QUESTIONED THE MALE INTESIVELY, SAYING THE WAY HIS BONE BROKE WOULDN'T NORMALLY HAPPEN BY FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS. BUT SEONGWOO PERSISTED AND SAID HE REALLY DID FELL DOWN THE STAIRS, AND STARTED TO COMPLAINED HIS BACK HURT FROM "FALLING" TOO. THIS INJURY WOULD SIDELINE SEONGWOO FOR A COUPLE MONTHS, PREVENTING HIM FROM BEING INTERACTIVE IN HIS CLASSES, BUT NEVERTHELESS HE WAS FINALLY FREE. HIS THREE BUDDIES HELPED HIM MOVED OUT HIS HOME THE SAME DAY HE WAS DISCHARGED FROM THE HOSPITAL. BY THE TIME HIS PARENTS CAME HOME, THEY CAME HOME TO A BLAND BEDROOM WITH NOTE THANKING THEM FOR RAISING HIM TO BE A STRONG, SMART KID, BUT IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE THIS HOUSE THAT BOUNDED HIM.

AT COLLEGE, SEONGWOO WAS FREE. ALTHOUGH HE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THIS FREEDOM. HE WENT TO PARTIES, GOT DRUNK FOR THE FIRST TIME, AND EVEN SMOKED CIGARETTES, WHICH HE ABSOLUTELY HATED. HE JUST WANTED TO FIT IN WITH THE CROWD. HIS CLASS ATTENDANCE SLIPPED AS WELL. SEONGWOO THOUGHT HE COULD WING IT AS HE DID IN HIGH SCHOOL, BUT HIS GRADES STARTED TO DROP AS WELL. HE LOST MOST OF HIS SCHOLARSHIPS AND ENDED UP HAVING TO GET FINANCIAL HELP. HE SNAPPED OUT THIS DURING HIS SECOND YEAR AND PICKED HIMSELF BACK UP. HE GRADUATED NEAR THE TOP OF HIS CLASS AND IMMEDIATELY WAS SCOUTED AGAIN BY COMPANIES. HE HAD COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN ABOUT THE IDOL INDUSTRY, BUT HE WAS STILL INTERESTED IN IT. SO HE AUDITIONED FOR A FEW COMPANIES AND GOTTEN INTO ONE. THERE HE TRAINED TO BECOME A POLISHED DANCER AND EVEN A STABLE VOCALIST. AS HE REPUTATION WAS SOMEWHAT NOTABLE, HE CHOREOGRAPHED A FEW GROUPS DANCES. EVENTUALLY, HE WAS GEARING UP FOR SOLO DEBUT, THE COMPANY FELL THROUGH AND HE SETTLED ON BECOMING A CHOREOGRAPHER, IN HOPES OF GETTING ENOUGH MONEY TO BUYING A BUILDING AND PERHAPS MAKING IT DANCE STUDIO, OR MAYBE HE COULD BECOME HIS OWN CEO OF A COMPANY IN THE FUTURE.
