BACKGROUND COMING SOON OK I AM JUST LAZY TO TYPE BUT JUST ASK ME IF U WANNA KNOW OK THANKS 

I think that's all I'm gonna add for paragraph space. Probably should add in a blockquote because I know some people use those.

Here dat be.

There. Blockquote added. I think that covers every fancy shmancy thing I do, so let me get on with finishing this code.

who they are.
their personality.

basic summary.

a man of few words, mark prefers to keep to himself at most times. well, unless he's pissed off. and he gets pissed off very easily especially when he's frustrated. that, and also the fact that he isn't the best when it comes to social interactions. he has always been the loner, the outsider, and he is definitely not the type to actively make efforts in getting to know people. his words are harsh, and so is the expectation that he has on himself. and he would never allow himself to fail, to disappoint others. he is also the type that would not hesitate to call someone out on their bull, regardless of any consequences. quite a risky move, given the strong culture hierarchy in south korea, and that has ended with him in unwanted trouble a lot. he is also not one to actively make efforts to get to know people, as he prefers staying alone most of the time. it's what he's used to, anyway. mark also tends to avoid expressing his emotions, especially those of affection and more tender feelings. sarcasm is his defense mechanism, most of the time. to others, he could be irritable or even rude, yet he doesn't really care。

their likes.

cats, food, the beach, summer, books, languages, the color black and grey + more tba。

their dislikes.

winter, spring. his family, too hot or too cold weather, insects/bugs + more tba。

their hobbies.

skateboarding, playing guitar and piano, watching movies, photography-- mostly vintage film cameras, going on mukbang food tours in the city, reading。

Before You Approach Me

•.*★ important。 Try to have something in mind and definitely read my profile before approaching me!  

Writing & Plotting Style

•.*★ writing style。 I do script 1st and 3rd, and for 3rd I can go from para to multi para to novella (very occasionally). I also hate one or two-liners with a passion, except when we're in games or ic chat, so please don't give me those when we're writing together! 

•.*★ plotting style。 I prefer plotting over winging, like I love all those pre-established relationships and connections between characters no matter how small it is, you know? Even a little something is still something. I love plotting back and forth with both of us throwing ideas so it's important to we know what the partner's chara(s) is like!

•.*★ overall。 I have very little limit when it comes to rping and I love doing dark stuff too. I also love drama, angst with a passion so hit me up with those and I shall love you. I also tend to sprinkle in some comedy here and there (mostly cause I find myself funny at times) so i hope we both get to have fun with that !!! 

Activity & Reply Speed

•.*★ important。 I almost never poke anyone, and I don't mind getting poked for replies, but just don't go crazy with it! I do remember who I write with, and who I owe replies to. I'm a full time university student in my senior year, so my schedule is both very flexible and busy. I do try to update about my life regularly to ppl in the rp so don't worry about me ghosting! I almost never drop a plot, I'm just,, slow,,, 

I tend to reply fast in chats cause honestly I got no life but actual replies could take a while cause like i said, uni life. And I procrastinate a lot so. 

BUT!! I love making friends so don't be afraid to come talk to me ooc, promise i dont bite c:

Mark is someone who avoids affection, or any form of vulnerable emotional connections, like the plague. It isn't something that he actively seeks for, even though you might be the only one who can see through his walls and see the boy who longs for those connections. Yet, his constant distant and indifferent self might just be one of the many things who drove the relationship to hell. But none can deny the thick tension and even complicated history that run between both of you. Is meeting again and an attempt at getting closure worthy of that old familiar ache in your chest, or is it the damned butterflies in your stomach a big red warning sign that you two are about to fall back into old routines again? 

Connection the frenemy. 

  • Availability: Taken by Ouyang Ning.
  • Preferred: current trainees.
  • Recommended Age: 20 and above.

Mark is nothing but trouble. He has an infamous reputation of getting into trouble, picking fights with other trainees, boys and girls alike. His hot and impatient temper and perfectionist nature isn't something that goes well with long frustrating hours of practice, and you might be the only one who knows exactly just how to push his buttons. Both of you don't exactly get along, your clashing personalities make anyone being in the same room as you two wanting to cower from the tension and the constant remarks hanging in the air, yet you two somehow have your fair share of supportive moments that might lead to some unexpected friendship. No one knows exactly how you function as a pair, but you have your ways, and with just the right amount of chaos and wholesomeness. 

Connection the blood.

  • Availability: Open.
  • Recommended Age: none.
  • Trivia: pm to plot !!

 If there is one thing that Mark absolutely loathes talking about, it's his family. If there is one thing that he hates more than that, it's to be compared to his siblings. And you. You have always been the perfect and golden child, the one who couldn't be anymore perfect while Mark is the one who couldn't be any worse than he already is. So when he got the chance to leave the family and the home country for good after his favorite sibling died, he left and didn't look back. Yet, apparently you had the same thought. Nothing makes you miss family more than when you're alone, in a foreign country, having no one else, right?
