Bio: Minho is the son of a famous reporter and a well-known detective. Being the son of a korean man and a japanese woman, he had been living in the two cultures. He would live in Korea with his parents, who were usually away at work. They would appoint him to many after classes activities, to make him occupied so he wouldnt feel so lonely while they were away. Though that lack of affectiveness would change whenever he traveled to Japan, to his grandparents’ house. His grandma always cuddled him and treated him lovingly, with care; while his grandpa would tell him stories, teach him fishing or letting the boy help him with the animal’s care. He also taught him to respect nature, as well as others; and the art of ‘patient and calmness’, as he usually called him. Actually, it was his grandparents the ones who choose his japanese name: Sora, which meant ‘sky’. They said that even since a baby, he was a calm, yet lively child; just as the sunny sky of a spring day. There on Japan, he also learned Kendo, being really good at it, and japanese poetry, which would help him when he was older to compose songs. The day his grandparents died, it was the saddest day he had ever lived. Though it impressed him, the love his grandparents had on one another, because they even died the same day, at the same time, holding hands and peacefully sitting on their chairs, looking out the window. Since that day, he entered on a depression, that he didnt talked much with anyone the first weeks, just focused on the sport he did most in Korea: the high jump.
