☮: when my muse feels the most at ease the most at ease areum’s ever felt in her life was only a few months ago, when she’d first moved to korea. staying at her grandma’s house, in a foreign country where no one knew her name she finally felt she could be who she really was. so much of her life was spent putting on this personality, and trying to please others, that simply being herself and learning new things was like heaven to her. 

☂: my muse’s favorite season or time of year her favorite time of the year would have to be christmas. of course, she loved the presents her parents would always shower her in, but there was more to it. some of her winters were spent snowed in, and for once her parents, who so often lived hectic lives as doctors, stayed in and spent time with her. the winter time meant presents, time with her family, and cute winter clothes – everything she loves.

✺: something my muse loves and never gets tired of despite partying, shopping, and drinking being some of her favorite pastimes, they all grow old after a while. and though she may grow fatigued from it, areum never gets tired of dancing. when she dances, it’s like her alter ego comes out, her better self. no matter what, dancing can put her in a good mood even on the worst of days.

✇: my muse’s favorite movie, director, and/or film genre her favorite genre is something so secret, that only her grandmother knows – anime. she discovered it after scrolling through the web one day, only to find ouran host club. it was a rather popular one, but expanded her knowledge to all other sorts that she now loves. she wouldn’t dare tell a soul, though, and her grandmother only knows because areum had fallen asleep amidst watching banana fish. she also has unexpectedly fallen in love with kdramas, after using them as a means to learn korean while having fun.

☺: something that makes my muse happy since areum’s time as a bartender has provided her with many cheap pick-up lines and meaningless flirting, something that makes areum truly happy is someone who takes the time to get to really know her. she’s fully capable of how difficult she can be, which makes her secretly, but grateful nonetheless for those who stick around.

✎: what my muse’s best subject in school is/was areum didn’t generally get the best marks in schools, less because of her capabilities and more because of her work ethic. she was far too busy swarming her head in the social life to think about what she was actually there for, but when she tried her best subject was french. she took it as a language, and had a big leg up because she’d been taught it at home since she was little. outside of electives, however, she was surprisingly good in language arts.

 ✗: something my muse hates or gets angry about areum hates being proven wrong. she likes to be right in everything she does and loves to pick a fight, so to lose an argument destroys her. she also can’t stand when things don’t go the way she’s anticipated, because as carefree as she seems, areum puts a lot of thought into the things she says and does, so to have something she’s wished for not to happen is very frustrating to her. this is cause for what some may call her “bratty personality”, throwing a fit when things go downhill. a lot of this has to do with the way areum was raised, getting everything she wanted, therefore she doesn’t take kindly to denial.

— SHE WAS...EXCITED. there were few times areum could say she was filled with joy, but this was one of those times. bringing it back to her true love, dance, always sent her into a wave of excitement. it wasn’t the drunken swaying, with a girl or guy on her side that really got her excited. truly, it was synchronized footsteps and passionate movements that she saw as true dancing. between moving to a new country and filled with hectic schedules, there were few times where she had the time to just let go and have some fun.

but when reina came along, the opportunity was just too tempting to pass up. she’d learned the girl was a skilled dancer, but for the most part areum just stayed to herself and acknowledged her in passing. after a conversation of their shared passion, however, reina had proposed they go to her studio to practice together. truthfully, the older hadn’t been too keen on the idea of going with a near-stranger, but her passion overcame any obligations.

little did she know, the whole ordeal would go on for quite some time, and in the short time she’d been there, they had made an unspoken routine out of it. this day had been no exception, and the two yet again had strolled into the studio with hopes of learning a new dance. only an hour had passed, and yet areum was clinging to the wall, panting.  ❝ how do you have so much endurance ? ❞ she asked between breaths, looking over to her companion.  ❝ i swear, i’ve done so much less than you, and i’m already on the floor. ❞

...In fear, Rose could only mimic the sound, letting out a shriek of her own before plopping back onto the floor, the fright causing her tears to begin overflowing once more. “I’m so sorry! I just want to find my ring!” She cried out in response to the voice.

areum knew she could be mean, and, in actuality, it didn’t bother her all that much. but watching  rose flail to the ground in terror, defenses up and tears flowing certainly...caught her by surprise, to say the least. aside from the boisterous action, areum certainly hadn’t expected the figure in the dark to be the older girl. clearing her throat, she kneeled down, offering the most pathetic, yet sincere display of comfort she could muster - her hand.

❝ hey, hey — ❞ awkwardly interjecting between the fit of cries, the girl tried her best to quiet rose down. the last thing she needed was for people to panic at the sound, and start flooding the hall, ruining her vanishing moment of privacy. tears had their way of making her uncomfortable, anyway. she never knew what to do when they came spilling out  —  should she ignore them ? talk to them ? comfort them ? hug them ?  ( no way. )  all she knew was that rose was crying, the ring was gone, and so was her patience.

❝ rose ! ❞ she finally yells out, trying her best to lift the girl up.  ❝ get a hold of yourself, please. anyone could be looking, do you really want to be seen like this? ❞ sure, areum didn’t know how to just ask are you okay, but as blunt as a gesture it was it was loving in her own way.  ❝  now stand up and tell me clearly, what happened. maybe we can find your ring. ❞

— SHE WAS INCREDIBLY TIRED.  it was past 3 am, and though she was admittedly one who thrived in the night, this was not the time. with nothing to do but wander around the building, areum had grown simultaneously exhausted, bored, and cranky. no matter how hard she tried, there was only so many times she could shift in her bed before deciding it was time for a change in scenery. the room, much too cramped for her liking, didn’t take long to become tiresome before she dashed out the dwelling and into the halls. 

with nothing but her thoughts to keep her company, areum put the headphones she’d brought along in and made her way down the eerily quiet building. creepy, but perhaps just the silence she needed to fall asleep. just as she thinks she’s found it, the presence of a figure directly in front of her causes a shriek, out of character for such a collected person such as her, to escape her lips. dropping the phone, she promptly collided her fist with the stranger’s arm before her eyes adjusted, presenting the person in front of her to be one of the housemates she’d grown familiar with over the past month. while she felt guilty, her pride was too much to belittle herself into apologizing, so she simply yanked the earbuds out in annoyance, rolling her eyes.

❝ god, can you get a minute of privacy in this place ? ❞ the girl muttered in annoyance, locking eyes with her counterpart.  ❝ when i moved in, i didn’t sign up for creeps walking the halls at night. ❞ the phrase was rather hypocritical, and those she’s too proud to admit she knows the other isn’t at fault. the lack of contacts certainly did not give her permission to hit whoever she couldn’t identify — but it was areum. who could tell her different ?

｡･ﾟﾟ･ hi guys!! i’m gonna really try not to post too much ooc as i have in the past, but i thought it’d be important to keep you updated! i’m being thrown so many due dates at once, so i’m trying to finish everything up today so i’ll have as much time to start posting for areum! i’ll be in pms mostly to plot, today, but i’m crossing my fingers that i’ll have time to get a starter or two out there for some muses, as well as an open one for everyone!

𝒎𝒐𝒐𝒏 𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒖𝒎. 𝒕𝒘𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒚-𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒆𝒆. 𝒃𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓. ｡･ﾟﾟ･ hi everyone !! i’m so so so excited to be a part of the first batch of yujaen’s muns ! i’m jada (19, she/her, est) and this is my spoiled baby, moon areum, also known  as ivy moon ! she’s 23, from nyc, and despite how she may come across she’s really trying to be a better person ! i’m super eager to get going with some threads, so if you’d like to plot just give this post a heart. if you’re curious, here’s her stats, profile, plots, and connections ! more pages can be found under her page. all about this girl under the cut !  ･ﾟﾟ･｡

she was born in korea on december 23, 1994 to two successful young doctors who worked together!

her parents were borderline...obsessed with any type of foreign culture. from the time she was young, she was immersed in all sorts of places.

less than a year after she’s born, the family relocates to new york, in hopes of raising areum to be around different people & basically live out the lives they wanted.

this was a major case of assimilation - they called her by ivy, giving her an american name, and refrained from speaking korean in her presence.

(instead, they spoke english, and got her a french tutor. now she knows that.)

time travel!! she’s raised an only child, known to them as their precious, beautiful daughter - after all, that’s what her name means! this is the start of her becoming super entitled, and very materialistic - if she wants it, her parents give it.

high school, though, was the real banger. her whole time there was spent using her money to get ahead, perfecting her looks & charm to gain relevance, and partying the night away in the city. she was incredibly fake, though, and most of her life at this point was spent using people for her own advantage.

when she graduated & began college, a lady came up to her and started speaking korean. she didn’t know hardly anything, so she apologized and began to walk off. in anger, the woman began calling her uncultured & shamed her for not knowing.

even though this was awful, it really got her thinking as to why she wasn’t taught about her background, and from their she gained serious interest about her culture.

i’ll spare al the details, but...at 23 she decided to push herself and move to korea with her grandma. the first few months were fun, but, wanting her freedom, she got a job as a bartender and moved out of the house and into the sharehouse.

now, about her as a person!

she goes by her korean name, moon areum, now that she’s moved here - it’s what she introduces herself as, but uses ivy with people she’s known prior or foreign muses if it’s what they prefer.

she’s kind of...awful, at times. while moving to korea was a chance to start again, she’s not quite there yet. she still tends to manipulate people, especially through romantic advances. 

she’s very, very materialistic, which has made her experiences at the sharehouse harder. she likes nice clothes, jewelry, expensive wine, all that. she has the money, but doesn’t want to spend it out of her own wallet, so prefers other people’s.

very very flirty!! a lot of times it’s just in her nature, but she’s not shy in romantic endeavors and won’t hesitate to display her interest. definitely not a fan of anything too serious, though, because she isn’t open to heartbreak. 

she really likes to dance, something she picked up when she was younger. she’s taken ballet, tap, and hip hop, though she most often dances hip hop now.

she still can’t seem to take anything seriously - if someone’s angry with her, she’ll reply with some sort of smartass joke. 

you don’t want to catch this girl on a bad day though - she’ll snap and it’s not the prettiest sight.

speaking of - she’s not too fond of people trying to control her, in general. she doesn’t like feeling weighed down, and if she feels something she won’t back down.

 she’s got insomnia, which she really really hates but tries to get out to cope, though it can make it worse at times.

loves loves to party when she isn’t dealing with that, though!!! almost all her nights she’s not working (or even if she is) are spent out on the town, dancing, drinking, having fun.

she’s sincerely trying to become a better person, but please be patient with her!! she’ll have a lot of growth and development throughout her stay here. sometimes she may have a few slip ups, but she’s trying her best to be the best person she can be. trying.
