jeong yunho, 25, cis male, he/him.  ───  3, 2, 1 — action!  everyone, we’re here at jincheon national training center, and this time i have with me our national archery team’s very own choi minjun. you might know them for having achieved a perfect score in the 101st national sports festival, but if not, don’t worry. they’re here to field all your burning questions. let’s dive right in.

hello everyone!! i'm super excited to be here and write with all of you very soon :⁓) i proudly present katniss everdeen reincarnate choi minjun!

upbringing, career.

ever since he can remember, minjun has wanted his parents to be proud of him. in fact, he has always wanted everyone to be proud of him - teachers, friends, acquaintances … if you were to look up 'people pleaser' in a dictionary, you would most likely find his name.

he rarely had an opinion of his own and lacked a backbone growing up, which probably annoyed some people. he was never popular but never really hated. he was always painfully average. at everything.

his mother was always afraid that minjun would never amount to anything, that he would turn out to be a splitting image of his father. she did her best to enroll him in various extracurricular activities, determined that there would be something that her son was good at. it definitely took some trial and error, but soon they found something that minjun excelled in: archery!

the sport wasn't the only thing he was good at, though. he was also very good at following other people's instructions and liked to take orders from his mother and his pr team. even though he didn't even really know why he had a team dedicated to him at the time, he trusted them blindly and did everything they told him to.

as a result, his beloved archery slowly began to fade into the background, and minjun was treated more like an internet personality rather than an athlete. while he was still grateful for all the endorsements and positive media attention, he found it increasingly difficult to concentrate on his duties and keep up with his training at the same time.

he pleaded with his team and his mother to slow down on the publicity but his words mostly fell on deaf ears. at least until he failed to qualify for the last olympics and all hell broke loose.

of course people want an explanation as to why his performance has been so lacking in recent years, and of course he can't really be honest with his supporters. all he can do is sit around and wait for someone to give him a manual and tell him what to do with his own career.

personality, reputation.

if anything, minjun is kind. he's always been compassionate, mostly overwhelmingly so, and barely ever had a single bad bone in his body.

his soul was only somewhat tainted when he became successful - as usual. of course, minjun always wanted to be better, more precise, more successful. while this is not a bad thing per sé, it was around this time that he found himself envying others rather than being truly happy for them.

even so, he is known to be easy to get along with. some might still describe him as a doormat while others might appreciate that he has grown a bit of a backbone over time.

it goes without saying that there are many people who believe that his online persona does not match his real personality. some suspect him of being greedy, while others even suspect him of being an asshole in real life. however, there is one thing that all these people can agree on: choi minjun is a marionette.

that would be all for now! please let me know if you would like to plot - i'm available on d*scord upon request (tumblr's shadowbanning problem has gone crrrrazy lately ...) so don't hesitate to ask! <3
