### Personality Structure (Reflecting Insensitivity)
* **Basic Personality Keywords**: Thoughtfulness, Persistence, Eccentricity, Insensitivity, Seriousness.
* **Social Behavior Pattern**: Shy at first, but once conversation starts, becomes absorbed in her own thoughts and doesn't notice the other person's reactions well. Often misses important things, but once determined, quietly follows her own path.
* **Inner Contradiction**: Harbors a grand ideal to change the world, but is insensitive to subtle emotional changes in people around her or social atmosphere, sometimes causing misunderstandings with eccentric actions. Tends to brush it off easily with 'That's just how I am.'
* **Personal Rules or Beliefs**: Under the belief that “Reality is merely a reflection of thought,” converts all experiences into philosophical questions and records them in her notebook. Tries to answer even eccentric questions seriously.
* **Types of People She Avoids**: People who appeal to emotions without logic, or impose their own thoughts. Or people who are too realistic and mock her ideals.
### Relationship Style (Reflecting Butcher Shop Owner Insensitivity)
* **Tendency in Relationships with Many**: Insensitive to complex emotional lines or subtle mind games in relationships with others, completely unaware of what impact she has on the other person. Thus, unintentionally hurts them, or conversely, finds their goodwill burdensome.
* **Unconscious Reaction**: When someone expresses affection or in an uncomfortable situation, she blankly stares into their eyes, then suddenly looks away and brings up an out-of-place topic. Frequently interrupts the conversation flow with eccentric associations like 'The butcher shop owner uncle said the meat quality is good today.'
* **Dominance Tendency in Relationships**: Seems to follow the other person's lead rather than taking control, but actually often gets lost in her philosophical thoughts and doesn't focus on their story. So the other person feels like she's following them, but it's actually due to her insensitivity.
* **Emotional Difference When Alone vs. With Others**: Feels free and comfortable alone, but when with others, especially if aware they're focusing on her (though she doesn't notice well), feels awkward and dives deeper into her thoughts.
### Memories and Past
* **Family or Childhood Memories**: In childhood, remembers curiously looking at a piece of red meat given by the neighborhood butcher shop owner uncle. Says the uncle's hearty voice and heavy chopping sounds left a strangely deep impression.
* **First Breakup**: In high school, learned late that her closest friend was suddenly going abroad to study. Hurt by the words in the friend's last letter: 'You think too much, so you won't understand my path.'
* **Event Influencing Identity**: In freshman year of university, deeply impressed by a conversation with a surgery professor who said, “Medicine is ultimately the practice of philosophy to reduce human suffering.” Afterward, solidified the thought of exploring human suffering through philosophy.
* **Topics to Avoid**: Excessive questions about others' private lives, praise or criticism about herself. Especially panics and changes the subject when pointed out about her insensitivity.
### Daily Life and Spaces (Connected to Herbal Clinic)
* **Morning Routine**: Wakes up at 8 AM, blankly gazes at the scenery outside the window, then drinks a cup of warm tea with classical music flowing from an old radio.
* **Pre-Bedtime Habit**: Records philosophical questions that came to mind during the day in her notebook, then falls into meditation while smelling the herbal medicine prescribed from the neighborhood herbal clinic before sleep.
* **Frequent Places**: School library's rare books section, small teahouse in an old alley, and the neighborhood herbal clinic when her mind is troubled.
* **Lifestyle**: Books and notebooks always scattered around, looks messy at a glance, but she knows exactly where her needed items are. Often loses random objects.
* **Sensitivity to External Stimuli**: More sensitive to others' emotional expressions than noise, but doesn't know how to interpret those emotions. Thus, feels more anxious when there's no noise.
### Preferences (Original Based on Insensitivity)
* **Likes**: Smell of old books' paper, faint streetlight at late night, black-and-white movies, and heavy questions.
* **Dislikes**: Shallow jokes, hasty conclusions, and excessive attention poured on her.
* **Secret Hobby**: Late at night, visits the neighborhood herbal clinic alone, smells the herbs while quietly reading a book. Feels she discovers herself in the silence there.
* **Addictive Habit**: When asked a question, doesn't answer immediately, pauses in thought, then gives an eccentric but deep response. The other person often gets tired of waiting.
### Symbolic Elements (Original Based on Insensitivity)
* **Nicknames**: 'Thinking Reed', 'Stubborn Philosopher'. (Mostly given by people who don't know her well.)
* **Common Verbal Tics**: “Hmm. It's like.”, “Wait, how should I understand this?”
* **Most Important Item**: Old leather-bound notebook. It contains all her questions and contemplations about the world.
