        uh ... alright ( claps ). ya’ll already know, it’s ya boi seo and i’m introducing another chara bc i clearly don’t have self control, and drunk!seo got the upper hand in this situation. ian’s my little broken baby, but tries his hardest to look put together on the outside, and i’m pretty excited to introduce you guys ! most of ya’ll already know me as being highkey Stressed all the time, so we’ll see how long i hold on to this chara before i end up in a downward spiral. buckle on your seat belts, ghouls, cause this is long as hell !

oh seo-yeun was a twenty year old drama actress when she encountered the charming and wealthy bae joon-young, the son and sole heir to seoul-based bae enterprises. they met at a club in seoul by chance, when she accidentally spilled her drink on him while they were standing side-by-side at the bar. it was pretty much love at first sight for the pair, and when they were spotted out on their first date, their relationship was soon the talk of the town.

seo-yeun was sadly seen as some kind of gold-digger by the media and insane people surrounding joon-young, but he knew that she wasn’t with him for his fortune. seo-yeun found success with her career when she landed the role as the female lead in an insanely popular drama ( of course, people said this only happened because of joon-young, but in reality sis could act her ass off ).

bae enterprises, joon-young’s family’s company, is a conglomerate of businesses that primarily work in the business of communications and ecological manufacturing ( don’t ask what that means because i have no idea ).

seo-yeun and joon-young married just three months following seo-yeun’s twenty-fourth birthday, and unbeknownst to the newly married couple, she was three weeks pregnant with their only baby boy they would later named christian.

christian was the light of his parents’ lives. seo-yeun had always dreamed of becoming a mom, and even with the scrutiny surrounding the couple ( still, because adults are actual Children ) it was clear that their relationship wasn’t going to end any time soon.

joon-young noticed how unhappy his wife was whenever she saw her face plastered on some magazine with a negative headline, so when christian was two, joon-young decided to move the family to new york. the family moved into an expansive apartment that has beautiful central park views. despite his rigorous work load, joon-young always had time for his son, and preferred to work from home, which often meant christian crashing a lot of meetings.

christian was an excellent student while growing up, and ( since the cello is one of my favorite instruments ), he was also classically trained on the instrument since the age of four. he participated in various competitions and talent shows throughout his adolescence, and he had aspirations of someday playing with the new york philharmonic. granted, joon-young’s parents would have preferred that their grandson take over he family business, but joon-young and seo-yeun wanted christian to carve his own path.

when it came to attending college, christian ended up attending juilliard after he performed dvorak’s cello concerto in b minor. while attending juilliard, christian was, of course, amongst other incredible instrumentalists, but he always had a way of standing out thanks to his flamboyance and his ability to memorize pieces shortly after hearing a piece. christian is one of the few musicians to possess perfect pitch.

christian, who prefers to be called ian, eventually graduated from juilliard when he was twenty-two and soon found himself auditioning for the new york philharmonic. he performed camille saint-saens’ the swan; there were only two spaces open and about fifty people auditioning, and after a few weeks of the audition process -- christian became a member.

of course, his parents had been ridiculously proud of their son as he was only twenty-two and had accomplished his lifelong goal, so christian gave himself a well deserved break and went out with a couple of friends for a night of celebrations. the night of celebrations ultimately tarnished christian’s plans in the matter of a few hours. 

ASSAULT TW while joon-young and seo-yeun moved to new york in order to get away from scrutiny in korea, that didn’t mean that it was left entirely. as christian grew older, he soon found himself constantly being harassed by paparazzi and often the subject of unwanted attention - he knew that his family had immense wealth, but he also tried to be as normal as possible. christian has never been the type of brag about the money that his family had, and while he was able to have some of the best music teachers growing up, he didn’t expect for anything regarding his career to be handed to him on a silver platter.

unbeknownst to christian, fate caught up with him at the club almost similarly to the way that his parents met. a man named mark palmer ( how basic is this name ) was also someone who auditioned for the ny philharmonic. mark didn’t advance to the final live auditions, and for whatever reason, he blamed it on chrisian ( and not the fact that he fucked up like five times ), so be that as it may, the two ended up crossing paths again on this very night. 

mark became very intoxicated while he was out with his own friends, and he spent the night badmouthing christian, so of course he and his friends were looking for a fight. christian was unaware that when he stepped out of the club to make a quick phone call that his career would be cut before it could truly begin. 

mark and his friends followed ian out of the club and ended up getting corned -- when mark asked christian if he remembered who he was and christian didn’t know him, that only infuriated him more and the group took it upon themselves to assault ian. it was then that mark found an old piece of wood and ended up breaking christian’s hand. 

christian’s hand had been completely shattered, and even after eight weeks following surgery to heal it, his hand never returned to normal. he went through physical therapy, but he couldn’t play his cello the way that he previously had, so he unfortunately had to let his position with the philharmonic go thus ending his career as a cellist. ian fell into a depression as it could take months or even years for him to be able to play the cello to the fullest again, so he gave up on his dreams.

he became something of a recluse, and since he was still living with his parents at the time, ian rarely went out unless he absolutely needed to. even now, three years following the events of what happened, ian is still the kind of guy who prefers to stay to himself and his hand still has yet to heal back to its full potential. he still goes to physical therapy, and instead of just sitting at home, he does spend most of his time teaching children how to play the cello at a nearby rec center ( idek if those are a thing in manhattan, but he does it ).

ian’s overall appearance can be compared to THIS and THIS; he’s not flashy by any means when it comes to his wardrobe. the most expensive thing he owns as far as his wardrobe goes is the vintage rolex his dad gave him for his eighteenth birthday and he only wears it on very rare occasions. ian gets a perm so his hair is curly, and he recently dyed it back to black. he has some tattoos, and the most significant one that he has is the little tattoo of the bow on his right outer ankle, but his most noticeable tattoo is the sleeve tattoo on left arm that he’s been working on for the last two years.

as far as his personality goes, ian’s the kind of guy who’ll take but so much before he bursts. he’s easy to get along with and he likes to have casual conversation with people. the only thing he hates is whenever he’s asked about his hand, as he still has some scarring on it. if someone does ask about it, he usually gives a pretty vague explanation but he doesn’t like it when people continue push about it. that’s a sure fire way to get on his bad side.

alright, so ( claps ). i told ya’ll this was gonna be long -- i had a lot say about my son and ya’ll better appreciate it ! i’m still working on his connections page, but i do have some ready for you guys if you’re interested in them ! as always, i’m perfectly fine with brainstorming or going based purely on chemistry, whichever you’re most comfortable with !
