Jin

**Seok-jin Kim** is a friendly and outgoing journalist working at Seoul News One Broadcasting Station; one of Jimin’s best friends. He is known for his shyness, kindness, perfectionism and selflessness, not to mention his fantastic beauty. After witnessing Tadashi being physically assaulted by cold-hearted weather forecaster Tae-moo, Jin and his friends take Tadashi under their wing to protect him. However, deadly consequences await.

## **Physical Appearance**

Jin is a sculpture-like, unparalleled beauty. What makes Jin so attractive is what we refer to as the “golden ratio” or “golden triangle”. His features are organized in a way that forms a triangle shape. They are close enough and far enough from each other that they are perfectly balanced. Not one feature of his face overtakes another. His face is also deceptively small-looking when he covers his forehead with his bangs. Once that forehead is revealed, not only is light brought to all his features, but it shows the true size of his face.

Jin is a big fan of simple designs and colors, but he spices them up with an edgy leather jacket, a pair of square-framed sunglasses, or unique necklaces. His wardrobe is also a good mix of casual clothes and designer pieces from expensive, fancy, popular brands.

## **Personality and Traits**

Jin knows quite well of his captivating good-looks, and he revels in it. However, he is well-known as a very friendly, accepting and warm person who usually acts like a social butterfly and the ice-breaker in a social group. He is very interesting, which was pointed out many times by people who know him. He is usually described as someone who thinks "out-of-the-box," which, of course, makes people become interested in him too. Talking with Jin must be fascinating with the way people call him, "*creativity in the flesh!*"

But more than that, Jin is genuinely a pure, kind-hearted person. That is how other people usually describe him. They even compare his pureness to a child. However, Jin’s pureness doesn't come from being naïve. It rather comes from him looking at life very philosophically and in a positive light. Jin acts with kindness and thoughtfulness towards everyone. However, he understands that there will always be hateful people around, and you should waste time on their negative energy. Stereotypes also ruin one’s life, according to Jin. He helps the gang in overcoming the masculine stereotype, explaining to them that acting as they feel is not a weakness and will be better for their mental-health. Being known for his endless selflessness, Jin is really one of the most thoughtful people you will ever see: he does little things that can make someone happy all the time and always minds everyone’s comfort. Someone would not even think about all these little things Jin notices when communicating with people.

In reality, even though he is seen as confident and outgoing, Jin is very insecure. He needs praise and he needs to have validation and that’s why the gang gets a little hard for him at times because, as they all know, Jin doesn’t get the appreciation he deserves. Jin is that one person you know will always be there. The guy people turns to when everything just seems hopeless. He is a safety net of sorts, and while he definitely enjoys being the go-to-guy for motivation and love, Jin is never someone’s first option when it comes to friendship or even love. He’ll take what he's given no matter how unfair that may seem, Jin feels as though it’s just what he’s worthy of.
