HEADCANONS
has been writing since they were young , honing their skills as they grew older . they have many essays , theses , and analyses lying around , but they keep their poetry under lock and key . only a handful of people have the privilege to read their poetry drafts without seojeong snatching them away as soon as possible .
aĀ  notableĀ  poetĀ  throughoutĀ  asia .Ā  becauseĀ  theyĀ  writeĀ  underĀ  anĀ  alias ,Ā  though ,Ā  fewĀ  peopleĀ  connectĀ  theĀ  scholarĀ  andĀ  lady - in - waitingĀ  ofĀ  theĀ  empressĀ  seojeongĀ  toĀ  theĀ  enigmaticĀ  poetĀ  baekho ā€” unlessĀ  someoneĀ  wereĀ  toĀ  noticeĀ  theĀ  linkĀ  betweenĀ  theirĀ  courtesyĀ  nameĀ  andĀ  theĀ  whiteĀ  tigerĀ  theirĀ  penĀ  nameĀ  isĀ  basedĀ  on ,Ā  thatĀ  isĀ  . tl;dr:Ā  baekhoĀ  ( theĀ  creature ) ,Ā  amongĀ  manyĀ  otherĀ  things ,Ā  representsĀ  westĀ  andĀ  autumn .Ā  " west "Ā  isĀ  incorporatedĀ  intoĀ  seojeong'sĀ  courtesyĀ  name ,Ā  andĀ  theyĀ  wereĀ  bornĀ  inĀ  theĀ  middleĀ  ofĀ  chuseok ,Ā  theĀ  autumnĀ  harvestĀ  festival .
while learning to wield a weapon was part of her education , most of seojeong's training was focused on that which is easily - concealable , or else long - range . which isn't to say she can't use more standard weapons at all , but she's quite clumsy with them , and relied on her late husband for protection more often than not . but she's always kept a bisu , or poniard , on her person too .
her husband was a royal guard and colonel of joseon's army by the name of haedam . they met as teenagers , and were in love with each other long before they ever married . but seojeong's betrothal was the reason they finally came together . ( death mention tw ) he unfortunately passed in a border skirmish he was called to about a year and a half ago .
they have two children , both by their late husband : bi , who is 10 , and yul , who is 6 .
fairly unserious a lot of the time , not at all the calm , stern image of a career scholar of joseon . they've been a bit more gloomy the past couple of years , but seem to have come alive again while at versailles .
canĀ  beĀ  seenĀ  inĀ  bothĀ  men'sĀ  andĀ  women'sĀ  hanbok ,Ā  thoughĀ  forĀ  theĀ  sakeĀ  ofĀ  beingĀ  easilyĀ  recognizedĀ  asĀ  oneĀ  ofĀ  jihye'sĀ  ladies ,Ā  seojeongĀ  wearsĀ  theĀ  typicalĀ  garbĀ  ofĀ  aĀ  lady - in - waitingĀ  whileĀ  formallyĀ  attendingĀ  theĀ  empress .Ā  inĀ  theirĀ  downtime ,Ā  though ,Ā  itĀ  dependsĀ  onĀ  theirĀ  mood .
WANTED CONNECTIONS
FAMILY seojeong and their mother seem to have always been at odds . seojeong's mother has threatened to disinherit seojeong a few times over the years , most recently when she learned that seojeong had broken their betrothal and married their late husband instead . though she's never followed through on her threat , the possibility of being cut off and replaced by one of their younger siblings still looms . haedam's family could also be interesting !
BROKEN BETROTHAL most likely to be another noble from joseon , but the seoks are both influential and wealthy , so it's possible she was going to be married to foreign nobility . seojeong did not like this arrangement at all , but she appreciates that it inspired her to marry the man she loves . so , in a strange way , she has a soft spot for this person , though the feeling may not be mutual .
LITERATI seojeong loves to read , to learn , and surround themself with like - minded people . this could go a number of different ways . maybe there could be someone who's , like , a student to them ? or a contemporary - slash - rival ? or someone who likes / dislikes their poetry but has no idea they're the author ?
NEW FLING in an attempt to move on from her husband's passing ( as she knows he'd want her to do ) , seojeong has started casually seeing someone at sometime after arriving in france . could potentially blossom into something more .
