I feel like for Wonwoo I start with the real life observations as key entryways into a character? Like it’s really important to me that he’s nearsighted AND consistently does not wear his glasses. Is the aesthetic really worth being on a blurry stage? There are so many character beats that can come from just from exploring why this man continues to not wear his glasses when he can’t see a damn thing.

Occasionally I’ve come across rumors that he was or is still in a long-term relationship with someone not famous and while I do not know or care if that’s true, it does inform how I go about conceptualizing the character because I also think it’s an interesting headcanon to explore how someone maintains a LTR in a career like that. Or at least in the back of my mind there’s this notion that he’s the sort of person who would prefer something stable and familiar over something exciting.

I also just copy off others’ notes and characterize him with emotional constipation lol
