#eventually !

wanted plots/connections

contrary to popular belief (aka everyone not knowing due to this little fucker actively hiding it), wook overworking and Not Sleeping™️ actually has its consequences! occurred more when he was younger, he used to frequent the hospital (on a personal concern basis) enough that a bunch of the nurses and staff actually know him. now he’s there only quarterly… or something. whether a childhood friend who stumbled upon the fact or a friend he’d gotten to know due to it (perhaps someone interning in/working in/owns the hospital?), wook and that friend are the only ones who know.

someone he looks up to, probably an older muse. this person is someone he (almost) always listens to because he believes this person is reliable, even moreso than him, and an overall great person. they could be a mentor figure; if they're a childhood friend (from jeju), they could have been his first love. (dynamics may include issues that arise from putting someone on a pedestal; potentially manipulative behavior, or; a generally wholesome dynamic)

wook has something you might refer to as roommate trauma (thanks, joon! </3 (it isn’t that bad)) after having been reassigned dorms for junior year, this is the second (and last) year around that you’re rooming with him. determined to not be a Burden, wook has essentially pretended to play dead and is probably The Best Roommate in B612™️ if you’re looking for peace and quiet. be his roommate?

someone who sees wook as a rival/competitor. wook is a very competent person… because he feels the inherent need to be (solely for his mother’s sake because he never wants her to worry even when all other facets of his life are probably worry-inducing. but hey, he’s good at hiding it so wtv). because of how intently you notice wook’s actions, you’re the first one to notice when he starts pressing on the breaks.

after having listened to a group of buskers play for a couple years now (about seven years, if we’re counting), you’re a new member (either a solo artist to the roster or taking on a new position in one of the bands) who’s surprised to see wook as part of the crowd and also friend to pretty much almost all of the other buskers you’re with (it’s almost like he’s a member himself).

he rescued your cat, or your house, or your family, or your friends, or you from a fire. consequences ensue.

having known wook to at least have 2 to 3 years of work experience as a barista, you take advantage of this fact and find opportunities to have wook make things for you. (and maybe convince him to stop drinking his coffee black himself.)

wook, having attended various international research conferences and as president of polaris himself, has always been an honorary member to the administration that welcomes international students. if you’re one of them, there’s a very high likelihood that wook’s one of the very first few people you became acquainted with outside of the international students org.

wook, sungmin, and micah (who i would personally dub the polaris golden trio (or the saja boys, angel ver.)) have worked very hard to make sure that polaris is a great place for everyone. wook will greet all polaris members with a warm welcome.

family friends? people who are associated with his mom (a prosecutor and legal consultant) or with his stepdad (surgeon). or if we want to step it up, his actual dad (undetermined).

connections that further explore/worsen/soothe his burnout

wook’s default is to always take care of people and not the other way around so you’ll probably rarely see us offering connections in the outset that go for that opposing dynamic. it’s not a question of like or dislike but the concept of someone even having to look after him is pretty alien so he might even be averse from it. but a connection like that would be very welcomed!
