hihi!!! so excited to be a part of this rp and to write for sunghyun!! anyways you’ll probably find him half asleep wondering the halls of his apartment or newsroom because he doesn’t believe in work-life balance as a reporter! but to learn more about him, check out his bio/stats and overview down below. but to make it simple, think lee seojin’s variety persona, yeom mi-jeong from my liberation notes and maybe a bit of yoseb from pachinko.
also like this post if you to plot! and i’ll come at ya! ( i also prefer discord so hit me up with that thx )
sunghyun’s parents had him at 17, so he did not have much as a child, often had to be watched by neighbors, his grandparents during his early years.
was a bright kid, picked up a book during his 1 year ceremony so yknow the vibes
his parents gave birth to his younger sister hyunmi when he was 12, and he basically raised her because his parents were busy with work ( ::debbyryan:: anyone pick her up uhh hmu pls )
his younger sister had a health issue, which resulted in her needing surgery, strengthening his overprotectiveness towards her
went through uni as a journalist without issue, his parents are v proud, but he still dotes on his younger sister quite often.
interned and eventually became a staff reporter with a politics beat at one of seoul’s top newspaper (clue! this will be important later)
got married around three years ago, but he and his wife separated because both of them were too focused on their career. ( ::debbyryan:: )
came to ilsang after the divorce + and uhh got “transferred/fired” from his big seoul newspaper job for uncovering corruption with a certain politican.
and currently works at the ilsang ilbo, is a bit strict with deadlines and his articles but he is attentive to his sources and co-workers
he’s a serial monogamist — this is the longest he’s been single, aka it’s been like 3 months he’s going thru it
gives the interns money for food often
a baby, he cries when he watches sad commercials
hates people who waste time
when he’s drunk he cries about his past sources or shows baby pictures of his sister hyunmi so stay clear of that
