His dream had never been solely to become a 'musician' or 'share his art with the world'. He wanted to be acknowledged, to get people's eyes on him. He likes attention and likes getting complimented. It is also not exactly for the 'fame' itself, but more so to actually perform on a stage in front of thousands of people. Have them recognize his talent.
Due to his passion, he grew up to be quite ambitious and determined. He will do anything in his reach not only to get what he wants but also to protect his friends and family. He won't let people stand in front of his dream, stop him or drag him down, and likewise, he will lift up those who help him achieve it.
Doesn't enjoy people minding into his business. If he wants to talk about something, he will come to you first. Don't push him to do something he doesn't want to, face things he doesn't want to, or talk about things he doesn't want to. He will often avoid his own problems and issues if he doesn't want to deal with them, and he won't appreciate you trying to help him through it. Most things, he likes solving them on his own. He is an individualist as much as he is a perfectionist. In the same way, if he notices something wrong he will ask only once and accept it if you don't want to talk, the only exception being if the matter is obviously serious, in which he will push it to force a response.
He is usually a pacifist, but if something truly gets him upset he might actually snap.

Hwi was born in South Korea, but while he was still young his parents divorced, his mother taking full custody of him and his sister and his father just disappearing from their lives after that. They ended up moving to Japan when his mother's work position got relocated, with an offer for a raise in case she accepted the change. He grew up in Tokyo becoming fluent in both Korean and Japanese and picking up a bit of English mostly from music and tv shows.
During high school, he founded his first music project in the form of a band named WISC (Wolves In Sheep's Clothing) - 2013. A four-man pop-rock group in which he was the frontman, vocalist, and guitarist. He took up the stage name 'Tomo', a nickname meaning 'friend' that he'd been given by his playmates during childhood and had been using as his 'japanese name' ever since.
The band went on for three full years, getting quite popular during their last year together, even earning them a few paid gigs. Eunhwi wanted to make it more serious and dedicate himself fully to the project as he wrapped up his studies in Music Production, but he soon came to notice how his bandmates had other plans. Knowing fully well that they wouldn't get far unless they dropped everything to work on the group, Hwi became frustrated and decided to quit the band, taking his own self-written songs and deciding to turn to what he thought would be easier to break into. the Korean entertainment industry. Okay, it may not be exactly 'easy', but he truly believed that with his focus and ambition, he would definitely make it. He was willing to do whatever it took to make it and he knew he had the talent and personality for it.
Sending his audition tapes to a few different companies, he soon got an email of acceptance from Nova Lux Corp, letting him know he would be joining their training program the following month (2016). It barely took him any time to pack up his things, grab his guitar, and get on the plane to Korea, and once he was there, his sole focus was to make it to the debut team. It was nearing two years of training later when in October of 2018 he finally got the chance to debut in ReNu under Lyra Muzik.

Although not a lot of people know about it, Tomo is a recovering addict. It started out around his last year of highschool as his band picked up popularity between teens and students, and they got invited to play at parties and events, including college parties thanks to common friends. It was through these parties that he began trying it out and what started as an occasional type of thing, soon turned into long weekends spent at a friend's basement under the pretense of band practice. He didn't think much of it at first, always thinking there were heavier drugs he could be using, or that he didn't even do it that often, but as he got involved with other users and his teenage angst hit top form, it slowly got too natural for him.
Being raised by a mother who allowed them their freedom and trusted their sense of responsibility, Tomo was allowed to go out and enjoy his nights with friends, and even when he'd get home stumbling a little, nothing would be said as it wasn't bad or often enough to be worrying. Because of this, it was rather easy for him to keep his use lowkey even as it started becoming more and more frequent, and so it was only around a year and a half later, when he got home late into the night and in a terrible state after mixing heroin and alcohol for the first time that things began turning for the worse.
He'd completely forgotten and missed his sister's birthday and the girl had stayed up waiting for him to get home from 'band practice'. She'd heard him arrive and gotten out of her room only to find him throwing his guts up in their shared bathroom, pale and covered in sweat. At first, she thought he'd just overdone it with the drinking this time, but as she helped him to bed and out of his jacket and jeans, she noticed the bruised area on his forearm along with the small bit of dried blood, finally shedding some light on the real reason he'd been disappearing more regularly and for longer periods of time.
Of course, their mother was informed and they tried talking to him about it but again, he dismissed them both as being dramatic and made excuses as to why it still wasn't an addiction. The tension within their small family grew as he tried to avoid the two older females as best he could, conversations turning into heated fights whenever they did talk and ending with him leaving the house for a couple of days which only lead to more tension. The vicious cycle continued for a couple of months, the band slowly breaking apart at his behavior and the older women doing everything they could for him while nothing seemed to reach him. That was, except for that one perfect blow that his older sister managed to land with the simple question "I wonder what Mihyeong will think when she learns her adored older brother is a junkie?"
Ever since their father left, Eunhwi had always wanted to be his little sister's hero. A father figure for her. So the mention of the little girl's expectations for him was what brought him back home. He wanted her to have a good image of him, to be a role model for her, but here he was. He agreed to go to counseling but chose to go through his withdrawal at home with his sister offering to freeze her semester so she could stay with him. Things went smoothly, or as smoothly as they could under the circumstances, and although he continued to party and drink often, he did his best to push away any other substances, turning to cigarettes as a distraction. He had been clean for only half a year when he moved to S.Korea, much to his mother and sister's worry. Staying as a trainee for the company implied a lot of pressure and he managed to stay clean for a good while longer, but once he finally got to debut and things got a little heavier, he ended up replasing a few times. He's been doing okay for the most part, but will still falter at desperate times or when the moment is "right". Close friends are aware of his pill use, but heroin is kept a secret. Has track marks on his arms which are kept hidden through clothing and/or makeup.

closeted biual. would rather have a fake dating scandal than homoual rumors. not necessarily homophobic but very easily triggered by queer topics and out-and-proud people (mostly internalized phobia).
very few people are aware of this possibility and those are the very few men he's dared to get with or anyone who might've accidentally caught a glimpse (tba - open for a connection).
timezone: gmt+00
- pm me to plot at any time;
- open and looking for all types of connections so hmu to plan;
- fav genres: angst, drama, or anything with a bit more 'action' to it but I'm cool with doing something more friendly and chill too;
- will rarely join ic chat, not because I don't want to, I'm just a bit awkward and shy in chat.
writing style!
3rd pov, para and multipara. But I do tend to mirror my partner's style so I do not mind if you go with your own style. I can also do 1st detailed if you prefer.
plotting!
I do prefer to plot rather than winging but I'm okay with having just a base idea to wing from as long as we have something so I'm not fully improvising as I don't want to mess up.
Your own ideas are welcome but if neither of us have anything in mind we can brainstorm something together. Your own pre-made plots are welcome and if I have any plots of my own that are available feel free to take them.
reply speed!
I tend to be 'slow' taking up to 3 or 4 days to reply most of the time but I can reply faster or slower depending on how busy my days are. I'm currently looking for a job so there's that. I do keep track of my partners so there's no real need to poke but if you do wish to do so please wait at least 7 days.
connections! / plots!
1. ex - angst/drama - female OPEN
*up for further development*
the two of you met in seoul after he moved here to get started in nova lux. you could have already been someone from the company, or be someone he met outside. after getting to know each other for a while, the two of you got into a relationship. it lasted for a while before something went wrong leading to a breakup.
(i do intend to make it angsty so we can discuss what lead to the break up. could be cheating, or heated fights, jealousy, etc. or he could've just ghosted you when talks of debut got around. we can discuss it in pms)
2. song making - chill/friendly - producers/idols/trainees OPEN
ever since eunhwi started his training period at nova lux, he'd be working on his songs by himself. one of his favorite things to do was to grab songs and play them on his electric guitar. by bumping into you often in the studios, the two of you started getting close and working on songs together. sometimes, eunhwi would take your songs, pick up his guitar and make 'band versions' of your pop instrumentals.
overall, the two of you are producing buddies. he will also often go to you to learn more about producing and get tips for his own music.
one of the few people who know about his solo projects.
3. old time fling - drama/slice of life - male OPEN
*up for further development*
being a closeted biual, eunhwi barely acknowledges this to himself and would rather ask his company to set up a fake dating scandal than to have rumors about his uality. it is just something he does not wish to accept for himself and as long as he is into girls he doesn't even need to recognize any interest in guys. because of this, he always shuts this side of his brain off and never had any experience with guys. that is, except for that one party where he got slightly drunk and ended up hooking up with this one guy. he didn't share any contact information with this person, not even names and he definitely hopes the guy was a bit too drunk to remember his face. as years passed by, he got confident the other didn't remember him, and eventually, he forgot about the situation. but that was also the reason that got him so in control of himself on that end, not wanting to even give it a chance for a similar situation to occur.
(if you wish to turn this a bit more friendly we can have them meet again and kinda talk it out, start a bit dramatic then actually turn friends or smth, or we could just go angsty all the way)
4. backstage fight - drama - renu OPEN
*up for further plotting*
haven't thought too much into this one, but something happened within the group. there's tension between two or more membres, could be hwi and you, you and someone else, or hwi and someone else and one of them just snaps, leading to a group fight in the waiting room for their comeback stage.
(*this could easily be turned into a group plot too with more renu members)
5. hair dye - chill, friendly - anyone OPEN
Tomo was very bored during his days off. He'd tried everything by now, from livestreams to working on new songs to gaming and all of his other hobbies but there was a limit to how long something could entertain him. Out of his boredom his impulsive nature took over and he decided, why not try dyeing his hair? Knowing you were experienced with hair dye, he texts you to come over and gives you full permission for the make-over. (or maybe the two of you are just as impulsive as each other and even with no experience he trusts you to handle his hair)
ideas to develop:
- pr fake couple
- beef with a fan/idol
- bodyguard friend
- gaming buddies (mostly shooting games but he's willing to try others) maybe could do streams together now and then for the fun.
