"It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. If you love yourself, then that's what counts."

Hyung is a rather interesting man, to say the least. Typically, when someone hears his name, the first thing that comes to mind is "Hey, isn't that the one model guy in all those magazines and photo shoots?" He would be quick to assert that they're right. Hyung is the epitome of a model. He's a confident and suave man armed with charm and charisma for days, alongside an affinity for attention. He loves it when the world "revolves around him," in a sense, and will often go out of his way to be the talk of the town. He has a very easygoing and upbeat vibe to him, and is no stranger to having long conversations over coffee. He has a silver tongue, and knows how to get just about anything he wants with the right words and just a hint of flattery. He's a massive flirt, throwing around winks and compliments to just about everyone who bats an eye at him. He claims that he has a sort of "natural charm" that draws people to him, as he often finds himself surrounded after the first word (though that's likely more from his grand fortune and immense popularity). He is INCREDIBLY confident in himself, owning every flaw he may exhibit. Due to this, he has a tendency to reference himself in rather grandiose ways at least once a day. He also feels a need to maintain his image of perfection at all times. If he is given a task to prove that he is the best of the best, he will take it (and usually end with crushing failure, but hey). He often finds himself taking strange and stupid dares just to prove points, and he realizes that he doesn't make the best decisions all the time. Nevertheless, he finds ways to keep his reputation shining clean while fame and fortune keep finding him.

Well... In public, that is.

Catch Hyung outside of the public eye and his true colors will shine. He's goofy, laid-back, and just the right amount of awkward to make those who came to idolize him blush. In his friend group, he's the outgoing ray of sunshine. He's the one that can always make the others laugh. Be it at his jokes (they're terrible), his puns (they're worse), his often dramatic mannerisms (oh dear god), or his confidence and "risk-taking" getting him into sticky situations, he always supplies some form of comedic relief for the people around him. He's rather energetic and playful, able to stay on his toes and roll with the punches with almost stupid levels of optimism. He loves just living his life the way that he wants to, not letting many issues really bother him. He's quite the prankster, on top of being a daredevil, and loves to supply laughter in the form of harmless tricks on others. Of course, his energy mixed with his slight immaturity and rather reckless choices make for quite a flaming disaster of a man. Despite that, he's nothing if not proud to own that. He loves being that flaming disaster. He has what he calls a balance that he maintains; for every mistake that he makes and every disaster he causes (which there are PLENTY), he makes up for it all by showing the maturity he has lurking in the depths of his character and actually fixing whatever went wrong.

The one place where Hyung is actually serious and mature is in his photography. He runs a photo studio between his own modeling gigs for everyone who wants to boost their confidence and embrace their inner and outer beauty. When he works with clients at photo shoots, he shows off a much different persona. He calms down, and shows off a very understanding and supportive side of himself. He is a huge advocate for self-love, and he uses his photos to promote just that in people. He is everyone's hype man, and he will support you when you can't support yourself. His attitude can be compared to that of a coach, in some ways. He will always be there to boost your spirits and cheer you on when you're doing well. He'll also gently walk you through the steps to really capture your best self, and has tons of patience for his clients. He has a great eye for design and making everyone he takes on look and feel their absolute best. He's incredibly talented with a camera, and can get almost scarily detailed when he's allowed to really dig deep into discussing photography with others. He has a huge passion for the art, and even outside of his studio he loves to capture photographs of everyone and everything.

However, everyone has a breaking point; Hyung is no exception to this rule. Underneath the layers and layers of happiness is a strangely broken man with abandonment and trust issues big enough to span continents. He can be INCREDIBLY clingy and hates to be ignored. He will often panic if he thinks he may have gotten himself into a situation where he could be ignored. His clinginess can also often lead to protectiveness; he doesn't want anything to ruin his good relationships. This can lead him to judge situations a bit too quickly in protective ways. He HATES being alone, and often gets very anxious should he have to be on his own for too long. He prefers his alone time to be a gift in between busy days with lots of people, and not the norm. If he does something wrong or embarrasses himself a bit too greatly, he often carries that with him for a long while after. He is shockingly hard on himself despite his confidence, and will beat himself up if he can't be the epitome of perfection. He often gets worried that people will hate him or think the worst of him when things go awry. This can stem further into fears that he will drive people away simply by disagreeing with them. He will often do just about anything to please others, even if it's dangerous behavior for him. Sometimes these needs for attention grow to points of near-paranoia. He may have times when he constantly worries that people are only interested in him for his status, and that everyone is just manipulating him. He fears that people are talking about him behind his back, and will sometimes drive himself to exhaustion just to keep up on every tiny strand of gossip to see if he's involved somehow. A lot of this behavior stems from his past and his childhood. His single mother was a very wealthy narcissist who instilled a lot of his current insecurities and fears into him through her treatment of him. He has since gotten far away from her, and plans on staying that way. However, he is terrified of turning out anything close to how she was. She still looms over him very noticeably, and he desperately wants away from that influence.
