PERSONAL INFORMATION

❈ STRENGTHS & SKILLS:
△ Flexibility : Seriously... like the level of a contortionist. Ji-ae was born with above average flexibility, but she really honed this skill through ballet, and later, figure skating.
△ Dance : Ji-ae is a mean dancer. Her interest in the subject has propelled her to take classes in about every form of dance she can find.
△ Sewing : She definitely isn't a master at this, but can sew simple things like quilts.

❈ WEAKNESSES:
△ Literally can't handle failure. She freaks out.
△ Can't draw. Honestly worst than a five year old
△ Kind of sucks at most domestics; like cleaning.

❈ PERSONALITY:
△ Cheerful | Dedicated | Gentle | Witty
Ji-ae takes on most of live with a positive attitude. She tries to be a shining light in the lives of her friends. Whatever she chooses to do with her life, Ji-ae faces it with dedication. This mindset often leads to depressive episodes though; especially if she can't get a certain thing right. Perhaps due to an early exposure to ballet, Ji-ae is gentle in most things she does. This includes her words and her actions. It's not done intentionally, but rather something that has become ingrained in her personality. Although Ji-ae may seem a bit demure at first glance, her quick and witty humor is quick to clear that assumption up. Her style of humor is shared with her twin sister; making them a handful to take on together.

△ Agonizing | Dependent | Expedient | Imitative
While facing life is something Ji-ae usually does with cheerfulness, she is prone to self depreciation. She agonizes over everything she does. This behavior stems from the competitiveness she had with her sister when they both took ballet. She tended to always feel inferior, and even though she no longer competes in ballet, Ji-ae's inferiority complex remains in the sport of figure skating. She remains very dependent on her sister and certain others. She is dependent on them for the competitiveness they bring out in her. She feels inspired only when competing with others. If her sister was no longer there to compete with, Ji-ae would probably lose all conviction to continue figure skating and also recreational ballet. Her fierce desire to be the very best has lead Ji-ae to do some unsavory things throughout her life. She's never broken laws or anything, but tends to overwork herself if it means meeting an end. She's prone to breaking promises and other things if she finds something more important to her that needs to be done. Ji-ae has a difficult time finding inspiration for herself, and often ends up imitating others as a result. This is mostly the case with her sister when they were both in ballet. Now being in figure skating, her sister isn't there to imitate, so Ji-ae will have to grow as a person and find her own flow.

❈ SHORT STORY:
    Ji-ae was born a twin; her other half being Jae-eun. The two girls did everything together and were always put in matching outfits. It really was difficult to tell them apart. Almost immediately though, Ji-ae was noticed to be a bit passive compared to her sister. Jae-eun always took initiative, and it was she who first decided to take ballet. Ji-ae had little interest in the art, but followed along because her sister was doing it. The twins' parents were not very well off, and all they could afford for the two girls was a bit of a shady dance studio. Despite having a bad reputation, the ballet teacher was very bright and a good influence on the girls. Ji-ae especially looked up to her instructor, so it was a huge blow to find out that the studio was shutting down due to lack of funds. This happened 7 years after the twins began taking lessons at the studio. They were 12 when they transferred studios.

   At this point, the Park family's income had increased, and the girls were sent to a higher class studio as a result. Both admitted that their new studio's atmosphere was much nicer, but it just didn't feel like home. This is the point when Ji-ae began to struggle. Perhaps due to the absence of her old instructor, Ji-ae began to fall behind her sister. Jae-eun was winning prima ballerina roles left and right, and Ji-ae, despite feeling like she was working the hardest, never got to taste the role. (Jae-eun was working just as hard as her sister, it was just hard for Ji-ae to admit this.)

   Ballet began to become something of a burden for Ji-ae. It was no longer fun when her parents were hailing praise on Jae-eun and forgetting about her. (They never forgot, it was just Ji-ae's mindset that created this belief.) By the time the twins reached high school, Ji-ae was barely putting any effort into ballet. She instead would spend most of her time at the local gym, as it helped her let out the frustration she was feeling. When high school began, Ji-ae decided it was time to find something new to do. Something her sister wasn't a part of. She indulged this information to a long time friend, and the friend suggested joining a high school sport. She herself was joining the track team, and thought Ji-ae should tag along. This offer was immediately shot down, as running wasn't exactly her cup of tea. After browsing through her options for a week or so, Ji-ae settled on joining the figure skating team. The sport was similiar to ballet, so she figured it could be mastered easily. This... wasn't the case. The ice wasn't easy to master. However, she found joy in being on the ice, and didn't care if she had to work at a silly cafe in order to do so. (Ji-ae's skating experience starts now!!)
