heads up! → jung wooseok, a childhood studies student & part-time kitchen helper, has signed a lease with pyeonghwa apartments!
“Wooseok was raised in a mediocre household, not too opulent, but well provided. Despite the living situation, his parents always try to find distinctive factors to discriminate themselves from mediocrity by pushing the entire family to be one step above others in the neighborhood. Wooseok has always thought it was foolish of them to grade people to their own standard, selfishly at that. Regardless, since he was little, he was often compared to his older siblings whom achievements are above mediocrity. Looking back, Wooseok wasn’t a bad student, but he, in comparison to his older siblings, wasn’t sociable enough, wasn’t knowledgeable enough, wasn’t active enough, he was …. mediocre. Oh, Wooseok did try numerous times to break through and meet his parents’ heightening expectations, he was practically walking the path they paved for him until middle school, but it was just not working. Or maybe he was impatient, he was fifteen after all. Along the way, he figured that the burden placed on him is far more manageable if he just build a wall for himself, within himself. Self-prioritization. At the age of nineteen, he opted to move to a different city and enrolled himself to a university course his parents never knew he applied for. Wooseok is a realistic person, he do not and will not ask for much. He just want to be content with himself and maybe, just maybe, push himself above the line of mediocrity?”
