☆twins are lucky
hyunjoo was born first, and she came into the world the way she would always be. quiet at first and then with a very very loud cry. that moment of spotlight was only for a minute before her brother was born, dongmin came into the world shortly after his sister with an even louder cry. they were considered to be lucky, becuse who was lucky enough to have twins on their very first time having kids. one boy, and one girl, and they were the exact thng you would have in mind when you ahad a boy and a girl. a loud, wild boy, and a shy conservative girl.
☆little girls are princesses
their parents were strict and conservative, and as such hyunjoo grew up in a rather traditional position. she was treated like a little princess, where she took piano and flute lessons, she played tennis and was dressed in the cutest dresses. while her brother ran wild with bruised and skinned knees, hyunjoo stayed a bit of a way away, making sure not to get dirty and clean up after her brother. tennies (which she aptly named 'twinnes') was one of the main things that the two twins did togehter, starting at a young age and sticking through it through present day.
☆always follow the rules
much like her brother, hyunjoo worked hard for the indepence that they have from their parents, though the watch they had over her wasn't as strong as the one they had over dongmin. she studied hard to get into yonsei, not wanting to be far from her twin brother. it was when she got to university that hyunjoo really did the first things that would be 'disobeying' her parents. they wanted her to focus on education, and go into teaching when she graduated, but hyunjoo, who had always loved the stars had begun the track for an astronomy major. her parents aren't exactly happy with this decision and are still trying to convince her to change it before it's too late. the second was cheerleading, which her parents were more than surprised and a bit angry that she had gone along and tried out for. she had no real interest in it when she was in high schhool, and they didn't exactly find it the most 'ladylike' thing for her to do, but she was commited to it.
☆shyness is not a weakness
along with joining cheer, hyunjoo decided to step out of her bubble and do two things that would help her get over her shyness. one was get a job at the yonsei bookstore, she uses it to help finance her growing character collection, that exists both at home and in her dorm. she's not the best sales person, she often forgets to ask people if they need help, or will be just a tad bit slow when she's helping them but she does her best. the second thing that she had done was decide to pledge a sorority. she had heard that sigma kappa was nice, and one of her fellow freshmen was rushing them, so it didn't seem to be a problem. what she knew about sigma kappa was that they were a perfect fit for her, and with her brother pledging delta tau delta, she knew that it would work out fine. especially if they weren't far apart from each other.
