Part 1: Before RVU
Who on earth is he? That was the first question asked when the news that DaHye Jung married JuHo Choi. You see, DaHye was born into one of the wealthiest families in Korea so her name is pretty much a household name while JuHo lived a more private life so whenever people tried to do an online background check, they found nothing. Not the Jung family investigator, though. He found out that JuHo had a criminal record and Mr & Mrs. Jung did not like that about their daughter’s med school classmate turned boyfriend. Because DaHye wanted to spend the rest of her life with him despite that and because she wanted her future child/ren to live a life that is different from hers, she took all her savings and took to the United States with JuHo right after they graduated. That was in 1987.
After their wedding, it took the two a while to adjust to the American lifestyle and to be financially stable enough to have a child. Two years to be exact. In early 1989, with both DaHye and JuHo thriving as a doctors, they decided they were ready to make their family bigger they succeeded at the first try. Their first and only child, Jin-joo “Jinny” Choi, was born a year later. From the moment Jinny was born, her parents never fell short of making her feel the love and safety that a child should feel. Did she feel alone though? Because of her babysitters, she never did and while her parents were not around as much as she wanted them to be, she understood that their jobs required their presence more and she was fine with that.
Jinny grew up to be independent and to be the girl that had a heart too big for her body and a brain that “she inherited from her parents”. With that brain, she did everything she could to live up to her parents’ reputation because while they told her that they would support her with whatever decision she makes, she felt like she had to follow in their footsteps. Not like she has a problem with that. She actually really wants to do it because after sneakingly watching her mother perform surgery on a baby, she knew she wanted to do something similar. She wanted to save lives of children.
No one’s life is perfect though. Hers was far from it. One day in school, she was 7 at the time, she was laughed at by her classmates for being an Asian that sounded American.It wasn’t easy to be Asian-American in her school. Some people told her to stop pretending to be American while others told her that it’s weird that she looks different from the rest of them. She was left out so many times and not even her kind heart made people want to give her a chance. That kind heart actually is one of the reasons why people her age were able to make her feel bad about herself for most of her elementary and highschool years.
Part 2: During RVU
When she graduated from highschool, her 3.8 GPA led her to getting many offers at a scholarship and out of those offers, she chose to take the one given to her by Rom Valley University where she spent the next four years studying psychology. It was in RVU that she felt safe to be who she is and where she was given the opportunities to grow with people. However, because of how focused she was on getting a high GPA and graduating college with honors, she rarely made time to do something fun. She was that girl who spent her time either studying, reading a book, occasionally watching a movie or sleeping. Many people told her that she is depriving herself of “the full college experience” by skipping parties that she was invited to or saying no to dates that she was asked out on, but she did not mind. She had to get things right, and going out to drink and being in a relationship might get in the way of that. Then there is the fact that the one time she actually gave being a relationship a try, it did not end well but that is a story for another day.
Part 3: After RVU
Not wanting to waste any time, Jinny went straight to medschool after graduating from college. She stayed focused all throughout those four years and throughout her five years of residency for general surgery. And as much as she tried to prevent it from happening, she ended up being too tired to actually hang out with the friends that she made at RVU. It was when she was nearing the end of her first year as a pediatric surgery resident that she felt like she finally could reconnect with those people. As if the universe heard her and wanted to help her with that, she received the invitation to the RVU reunion.
Part 4: Back to RVU
She was nervous to come back, that was for sure. Waking up one day to be 20 years old again was not what she expected to happen. The thing was she did not think anything was wrong with that until she felt like there was something else that she needed to do. She was unable to figure out what that something was, however, so she just carried on with her second chance at “getting the full college experience”. Who knows? Maybe things will be different for her this time.
Some Tidbits About Her
to be updated!
Her Wanted Connections
bestfriend: I want her best friend to be the type that would always try to get her to go out and actually have some fun. There are a few times that this person succeeded but most of the time, she does not. She stuck around with Jinny despite that though, and she is one of the few who understood why she had to disappear for a bit after college.
friend group in college: This could comprise of nerdy girls like her and the adventurous type (I love when opposites become friends!)
people she tutors: Jinny loves helping people so she volunteers to help other students with catching up with class and the workload !
boys her friends set her up with: This could be a lot because her friends really wanted her to be more out there, but she never said yes (except that one time which I will expound on below!) We can plot how things went down and all that jazz. c:
the one almost boyfriend: I want Jinny to have tried to give a relationship at least once and at first, she thought it was going well, but she was wrong and it ended up making her cry for a few nights. Exact details can be plotted when someone decides to fill this in!!
This is all I have for now!! Anyone who wants to plot, please do. :3
