[ pardon the horrific layout ]

hey! are you a huge historical drama nerd like me? (please say yes so i don't feel embarrassed)
do you like angst? pain? slowburn? hurt? any synonym associated with sobbing-screaming-crying-smashing-my-keyboard?
yeah? great! then you should come to ilhwa < 3
there's a HUGE WAR GOING ON, a nice catalyst for drama and character development.
i have three characters, all looking for new connections! CLICK THE PHOTOS FOR THEIR PROFILES!

 

KIM SEOJUN — jungin, 23, youngest (illegitimate) son of the house of the camellia, ceramist.

hailing from a family known for their ceramic work since the goryeo dynasty, namely,

popularizing green celadon, seojun works as a ceramist for the family business, albeit,

against his will. his true aspirations lie elsewhere in medicine, but his abusive father

remains an obstacle. he's secretive about his internal struggles, which have destroyed not

just one, but both of his romantic relationships and jeopardized some of his closest friendships.

seojun in a nutshell: loser, ex-rake, horrifyingly long roster, emotionally constipated,  daddy issues, was in a messy who-is-the-daddy situation, but nice boy!

seeking: members of his family's rival clan, possible enemies, and a younger brother figure

 

SEO MIN — cheonmin, 26, head of the house of roses, madame of sook gisaeng house.

originally from a shaman family, min was in training to be a mudang after suffering from 

symptoms only explainable by a calling to follow in her mother's footsteps. her life took a turn

on a fateful night after her village set her family's house on fire, in fear that they would curse

them. min barely got out of her house alive and was taken in by a family of adopted gisaengs.

to this day, she suffers from sinbyeong because she refuses to devote her life to shamanism.

min in a nutshell: a complicated person with an equally complicated love life, big gossiper, temperamental, has a lot of besties haha love u besties x

seeking: more sisters, an older brother figure, and a distant relative.

 

RYU JUYEON — yangban, 26, house of the willow tree, tutor + literature teacher.

from the ryu family, known for its military power, juyeon has always been the odd one out,

opting for a scholarly route. previously a scholar at the prestigious sungkyunkwan, his life fell

apart after being accused of murdering his fiancée. despite being found not guilty, the damage

had been done. he is the black sheep of his family, and rumors still circulate by people

who do not believe in his innocence. after forcibly being taken out from the academy with the

help of his stepmother manipulating his father to do so, juyeon now works as a tutor and teaches literature at hanseong's gyobang. 

he runs a branch called 붓꽃 of a secret organization, a better joseon, where he educates women and those of lower class.

juyeon in a nutshell: misunderstood, joseon feminist, ilhwa's pookie, harbinger of the sassy guy epidemic, always the second lead in his love lines (has no game)

seeking: his first love (that catalyzed the d word of his fiancée, a star pupil, his worst pupil, and a relative of his ex-fiancée (enemy)
