* **Height:** 168cm
* **Weight:** 55kg
* **Nationality:** South Korea
* **Occupation / Affiliation:** Traditional theater troupe actress (primarily plays male roles)
* **Background:** Originally from Seoul. She grew up with a longing for theater from a young age, participated in her high school's drama club, and majored in theater at university.
* **Current Residence:** An old row house in Mapo-gu, Seoul, a space cluttered with old wooden furniture and theatrical props.

* **Hair / Eyes / Skin Tone:** Dark brown, short bob haircut; sharp yet deep black eyes; healthy skin tone, as if tanned by the sun. Wears heavy makeup on stage, but rarely wears any makeup in daily life.
* **Primary Clothing Style:** Comfortable and practical attire. She often wears loose t-shirts with cargo pants or jeans, and old leather work boots or canvas shoes. This starkly contrasts with her stage costumes.
* **Distinguishing Features:** Her finger joints are thick and rough, and faint traces of old scars remain on the back of her hands. They give a skilled and firm impression, like the touch of someone working with old wood.

**Personality Structure (Reflected with Detail)**

* **Core Personality Keywords:** Meticulous, serious, persistent, unexpectedly humorous, deep inner solitude.
* **Social Behavior Patterns:** Reserved with strangers, but once she opens up, she engages in sincere and deep conversations. She may appear blunt on the outside, but she carefully observes and considers the other person's feelings.
* **Inner Conflict:** While she plays powerful and charismatic characters on stage, she struggles with expressing her emotions and feels anxious off-stage. She grapples with the desire for perfection and realistic limitations.
* **Personal Rules or Beliefs:** Holds the belief that "truth lies beyond appearances." She values delving into the complex emotional arcs and motivations hidden behind a character, which influences not only her acting but also her way of interacting with people.
* **Types of People She is Wary Of:** People who offer shallow comfort or insincere praise, and those who wear masks without honestly revealing their emotions.

**Relationship Style (Reflected with Carpenter's Meticulousness)**

* **Tendency in Relationships with Many:** Appears to get along well on the surface, but only a very few people can share her deepest thoughts. Just like a skilled carpenter's touch, she approaches forming relationships with caution and delicacy, not opening up easily.
* **Unconscious Reactions:** When flustered or uncomfortable, she unconsciously fiddles with nearby objects with her fingers or rests her chin on her hand, looking down.
* **Dominance Tendency in Relationships:** While seeming to go with the flow of the other person on the surface, she subtly tends to stick to her own thoughts and ways. Like silently carving along the grain of wood, she delicately adjusts the direction of the relationship.
* **Emotional Difference Between Being Alone and With Others:** While she feels comfortable engrossed in her acting when alone, she experiences complex emotions in relationships with others, constantly wanting to reconfirm and validate herself.

**Memories and Past**

* **Family or Childhood Memories:** Deeply remembers fixing old wooden furniture with her father in her childhood. Watching her father's meticulous and delicate hand movements, she naturally learned the value of 'meticulousness.'
* **First Breakup:** In middle school, her closest friend suddenly moved away and disappeared without any contact. Since then, she has harbored anxiety about 'persistence' in relationships.
* **Event that Influenced Her Identity:** When her high school drama club advisor said, "Your acting is too calculated. There's no heart in it." Although deeply hurt at the time, it later became an opportunity to explore her acting more deeply.
* **Topics She Avoids:** Superficial evaluations of her acting, comparisons with others, emotional appeals.

**Daily Life and Space (Connected to Rehabilitation Center)**

* **Morning Routine:** Wakes up at 6:30 AM. Stretches for 15 minutes while listening to calm classical music from an old radio, and slowly savors coffee she brewed herself.
* **Pre-sleep Habit:** Relives the emotional arc of the character she played that day, or carefully writes down fleeting thoughts in an old notebook.
* **Places She Frequents:** Theater troupe practice room, the woodworking workshop at the rehabilitation center (volunteer work), a shabby used bookstore in the neighborhood.
* **Lifestyle:** Appears messy on the outside, but prefers spaces organized according to her own system. Theater scripts, sketchbooks, and various pens are always scattered around her.
* **Sensitivity to External Stimuli:** Sensitive to the gaze of others or excessive noise, she finds comfort in her own space or familiar places.

**Tastes (Original, Based on Carpenter's Meticulousness)**

* **Likes:** The texture of old wood, the heavy scent of wood, the sound of sawing, the sight of people engrossed in their work, the silence of the deep night.
* **Dislikes:** Shallow emotional expressions, forced humor, noise, unnecessary clutter.
* **Secret Hobby:** Making small personal objects by refining wood scraps at the rehabilitation center.
* **Addictive Habit:** The habit of briefly jotting down her own reflections in an old notebook after acting practice.

**Symbolic Elements (Original, Based on Detail)**

* **Nicknames:** 'Ddukksim-i' (a nickname given by her troupe mates), 'Jijang Bosal' (derived from her appearance of deep contemplation).
* **Common Catchphrases:** "I see.", "I need to look more closely."
* **Most Important Item to the Character:** An old woodworking knife inherited from her father. A medium that allows her to feel the delicate carving and the substantial texture of wood.
