personality: sera is extroverted, welcoming, and witty. most likely the first person that people new to seomri befriend. genuinely warm, with no ulterior motives. her brightness never dims, not even when she works. as a host, she is knowledgeable and curious, a former journalist turned radio host who loves to debate everything under the sun. as a tutor, she is understanding while she teaches people of all ages how to speak english, chinese and even korean! she is the epitome of a mom friend or the big sister of a group.

background: all she knows is seomri. she was born and raised by a family with deep roots in town: father worked as a truck driver for the mill while her mom was a nurse practitioner. lack of funds are the reason why she's never left seomri, not even for a holiday. seomri is all she's ever known and this place has become both a sanctuary and a cage.

secret: it's something that only a select few know about her (wc??????). she has always wanted to leave this town. not for a day, not for a week, her wish has been to leave for good. her circumstances have never been right: from sick relatives to bad timing to insufficient money saved, something was always in the way and she would be forced to stay. she tries to run away yearly and well. let's just say that she hasn't tried leaving this year ... just yet.

connections: this is the most delicious part of all. friends from childhood who have lived in seomri since forever, newcomers that she has taken under her wing, man she had a crush on while she was in school and she still feels insanely shy around, someone who knows of her wish to leave, maybe someone who was supposed to run away with her but then something happened ?? maybe they left without her ... gasp ... ummm. people she brings as guests on the radio show she has ?? or maybe ones that call in ?? OH also, she worked for the newspaper as a journalist for a while so if your muse works there then ... former co-workers !! someone she tutors ... maybe they need help with korean or they are just trying to learn a new language .... omg neighbours ... or someone who suddenly got sick and she would bring them all kinds of soups and stews orrrrrrrrrrr maybe she cat/dog sat for your muse .... again, she is very big sister / mom friend coded, so anything works.
