( GIVEN NAME ) CHO YUN-HO, is his actual birth name albeit seldom used this name until recently ( lived in the USA ) was named after his great grandfather whom he never met and finds this to be a little creepy seeing as everyone tells him he looks like said grandfather ( bad omen? )
&&. alias : riley cho, the name hes been going by since five years of age and arguably the one hes more used to / associates with more. Does prefer people to call him ''Riley'' albeit understands if they'd rather use his birth name.
&&. nicknames: ley, ri, cho, dimples ( will add more if given any )
( DATE OF BIRTH ) 18th of january ( the date of this journals creation apparently - was originally this in his old journal and i don't feel like changing it )
&&. age : currently now as of 2024 is 24 years of age
&&. zodiac: capricorn
( PLACE OF BIRTH ) seocho-gu, seoul, south korea. riley lived in seoul until five years old whereby his fathers job caused the family to relocate to the USA, has been there ever since up until recently. doesn’t have many memories of korea but remembers his old school and friends fondly, would like to visit his old home which is currently being renovated / prepared for him to move in, plans to occupy all 4000 square foot of it solo.
( RESIDENCE ) currently resides in gangnam, south korea ( yes i know, hes a trustfund baby! ) in a comfortable thirty story apartment building, has been living there the last year whilst working. this place is temporary albeit he’s found himself enjoying the view a little too much to let it go just yet. does also have the family homes in los angeles and new york that he returns to periodically when required to be in the states for work or downtime ( prefers NYC because his sister is there which = gaming buddy/ someone to talk to and she nags him a lot less about his lifestyle than his parents albeit, does make him socialise more, which in hindsight isn’t a bad thing. )
( OCCUPATION ) riley’s passion in life is robotics and thankfully has been fortunate enough to land a job in his desired field though currently isn’t a full member of staff, just does interning and occasionally assists / gives seminars on robotics and its usage in the modern world ( how it can help us / further our society & how its already doing so. ) his true goal aligns with android technology and the program going on in that branch of the company which deals with AI production / android ( humanoid robot ) manufacture. NOTE: riley has already made his own ''robot'' - a small plant feeding robot named esme which he created at 17. esme is still functional & helps him keep up to date with his plant feeding ( she will sing a small song / say a line to alert to plant feeding )
