The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by J. Koenig

The realization that the plot of your life doesn’t make sense to you anymore—that although you thought you were following the arc of the story, you keep finding yourself immersed in passages you don’t understand, that don’t even seem to belong in the same genre—which requires you to go back and reread the chapters you had originally skimmed to get to the good parts, only to learn that all along you were supposed to choose your own adventure.

✦ Usual expression :: Woogeun has a habit of squinting and furrowing his eyebrows when his attention is called. His idle face looks stern because he often puts tension on his jaws as an alternative to fidgeting.

✦ Distinguishing Characteristics :: Woogeun's stature somehow catches people off guard. If in a room, and all of them are tall—some even taller than him—those who are observing will more likely pay more attention to him because of his proportions.

✦ Physical Ailment(s) ::

✧ Both Eyes – Nearsightedness

✧ Restless Legs Syndrome

✦ Allergies :: Shellfish

✦ Mental Disorder(s) ::

✧ Antisocial Personality Disorder – Undiagnosed

✦ Sleeping Habits :: Woogeun does not like running on caffeine given his condition, so as much as possible, he tries to sleep at least 6 hours every night – if not possible, he chooses to nap whenever he can during daytime. His RLS is at its worst at night, so he prefers to sleep alone as to not disturb anyone. His usual sleeping position is sideways towards the left. Besides his uncontrollable leg twitching, he sleeps still – it's not uncommon to find him at the same position he fell asleep. He does not set alarms so when he's awfully tired, he misses the time he's supposed to be awake. It is easy to wake him up though, but it is highly suggested that you pester him to stand up immediately as he finds himself drifting back to sleep easily after being awakened.

✦ Exercise Habits :: Unlike before, when Woogeun was still serving in the military, he does not do the routine that was taught to them anymore. Instead, he selects from said routine what he thinks he needs. He still does light exercises daily though, just to not resort to caffeine or energy drinks to get his blood flowing and have energy for his duties. Though he knows how to bike, he does not really use that as a means to exercise but, he skips leg exercises when he knows he has to bike somewhere for errands. He only visits a public gym when he feels that the space meant for them to use is too crowded for his liking.

✦ Emotional Stability :: Woogeun's default response to most things is anger. He does not lash out, but rather he displaces his anger by scattering it. Say, if he is angry with one person, every person he encounters throughout the day will most probably feel his anger. He directs his anger towards people mostly – he does not really rage over inanimate object, but if he does get annoyed with one, he still chooses to direct his anger towards people instead. He recognizes that at times he is more sad than angry but he does not let it show – or so he believes, he's more apathetic than annoyed at most people compared to usual when he's down.

✦ Speech Style :: Woogeun does not like code switching so it's either he talks straightly in Korean or in English. He speaks quite fast but still very clearly. He makes sure to put emphasis on the important words he says in a sentence. He really isn't familiar with other dialects being born in the capital and he cannot imitate any of the dialects as well. He does not really have words or phrases he often repeats as he does not really like conversing unless needed. He often curses under his breath though, but not really out loud or towards other people. Even though his anger is his prominent characteristic, he does not raise his voice nor change his tone when he's angry. However, you'll sense it through hints of sarcasm. His laughter may be mistaken for amusement but more often than not, it's an indication of the opposite.

✦ Immediate Family ::

✧ Father – Choi Woohyuk (†)

✧ Mother – Kang Gaeun (†)

✧ Sister – Choi Woohee

✦ Pet(s) ::

✧ Female Siamese Cat – Phoebe

✦ Sociability :: Woogeun is well-aware that he regressed to his unlikeable persona because of the circumstances he's in. He grew up as a troublemaker and had troublemaker friends before – but unlike most of them who straightened their paths, his motives only grew more despicable. Perhaps the very few friends he has only keeps him out of fear or intimidation. Though being somewhat one of the main connections of Manwol's Ramyeon to society, he tries his best to imitate how his sister approached social situations in order to do his job properly. In relation to such, he could care less about those who dislike him because of their shared opinion that he does not deserve his position as a Handler. If they do try to work him up, argue with him, or sabotage him, he does everything to put them in their place.

Woogeun was born to an affluent family – everything him and his older sister, Woohee, needed was provided to them. They had kind and loving parents who were unfortunately taken from them when Woogeun just turned 11 years old and her sister barely 16 years old. It was an accident – such was life and fate, the orphans thought. And because of said fate, they were taken in by a relative who was the complete opposite of their parents. Everything tied to their name was taken away from them until they were wrung dry, left without a coin to spend.

The hatred that was growing inside of Woogeun eventually swallowed him whole. At 14 years old he convinced his 19 year old sister to leave the hellhole they were thrown in – rewrite their woeful fates. For half a year they ran from social workers who tried to bring them back to their relatives' house, living almost like rats as they settled with petty thievery to fill their stomachs in order to survive. Woohee was taken in and trained in Manwol's Ramyeon when she was 20 after being caught by Manwol himself trying to steal food. She kept it as a secret from Woogeun – to keep him safe as much as she can. She earned enough from working at the shop while training to be an assassin to give them a decent place to live in – and at 16 years old, Woogeun was able to go back to school.

Despite his misconducts attributed to his developed distrust and dislike for people, Woogeun's innate intelligence didn't diminish even after being out of school for two years. It allowed him admission to Heunjeong National University where he majored in Industrial Engineering. He was able to tolerate the people around him during college much better than in the latter part of his middle school towards high school. Because of that, he believed that perhaps giving people a second chance was worth a shot. He enlisted in the military at the age of 26 right after he graduated.

What he came back to after doing his service in the military was quite a shock. Woohee revealed to Woogeun that she trained to be an assassin and has been an assassin for almost 11 years already. She told him about Manwol's Ramyeon and about the injury she sustained a year back, essentially rendering her to be out of commission as to not make it worse. With Woogeun being in the military, Woohee remained in Manwol's Ramyeon despite her injury – still serving the organization as a Handler. She requests Woogeun to take her place so that she could live her dreams now that she's older, after sacrificing much of her youth to give Woogeun the future he deserved. Such was life and fate, after all those years, Woogeun thought. He eventually accepted the request and has been with the organization for almost a year now.

You may refer to me as Chai, my characters' names, or my RPR username. My pronouns are she/her, one/ones and I am of age. You may also just use my characters' pronouns when referring to me, I don't really mind.

My timezone is GMT+8 and I have a fairly normal sleeping schedule. You may trust the online sign on RPR but that doesn't guarantee any replies from me – expect that I will get back to you right away once I am able though.

I hang in the OOC chat a lot unless I'm working on something or writing my replies. I usually follow a schedule when it comes to replying unless it's a quick thread or an SNS thread.

You may poke me after 3 days if we are still plotting as I tend to forget about private messages at times. When we are already writing the thread, however, poke me only after 7 days – I usually don't take that long to reply and will inform you if it will take a while.

I recently finished university but I am currently studying for an important exam so my activity may be sporadic.

I write strictly in 3rd POV but if interactions call for one-liners or fast threads, I do not mind seeing 1st POV from others but I will stay writing in 3rd POV. It is important to take note that I prefer using the roleplay rooms for threads – I prefer keeping my walls clean so, unless the thread is too triggering, we should write our threads in one of the rooms. Although my private messages are always open, it is only for OOC matters (i.e. plotting, casual talks, etc.). You may also ask for my Discord if it is more convenient for you to talk to me there.

Genres I prefer depend on which trope my character falls under. Mature themes are fine (if the roleplay permits it). -centric plots, however, will be rejected without any hesitations. Also, I almost always prefer to drop starters. However, if it makes more sense for you to do so, then we shall go with that.

As for length, I almost always multi-para unless my muse is low or the pacing doesn’t require that much of a length. I love writing about my character’s thoughts and some fillers, so I hope you don’t mind that. I am capable of writing novella if the thread calls for it. I don’t usually care about mirroring as long as I have something I could work with.

My writing style depends on what kind of character I am writing as, but I lean more toward lyrical writing and beige prose. I also write in purple prose only if you are also a purple prose writer or comfortable with purple prose, and wish to write with me using that writing style – just let me know. I use figures of speech a lot, especially metaphors. So, if my writing is kind of hard to interpret, you may always ask for clarifications and such (or request me to lessen it; I accept constructive criticism).

I entertain most offers to roleplay and don't normally limit my threads, as long as we can figure out something together. Please do not expect me to think of everything, and I definitely would not drastically adjust my character just to fit your plot or connection offer. I write about my character in detail, so everything you may need to know can be found in their profile. I also like answering questions about my character, so don’t hesitate to ask.
