demeanor: Yi-Joon is always regal and elegant in the way that he moves. He keeps a formal posture at all times unless he is in relative privacy with very close friends or family. His expressions can be very hard to read and it is difficult for one to figure out what Yi-joon might be thinking of you.
fashion: Yi-Joon always wears what is fashionable while not looking tacky. He always has a regal look to him both through his way of carrying himself and the clothing that he wears.

History:


Childhood
1874 - 1884
1874:Yi-Joon is born the youngest child and only son of Neville and Sun Hee Daphnel, an upper class pureblood couple that had settled down in Korea. His childhood is a mix of happiness and routine as his family is very loving but strict. He is required from a young age to be educated in different areas.
1880:Yi-Joon's first signs of magic appear when he turns one of his teddy bears into a plush bird instead.
Education
1885 - 1892
1885: Yi-Joon begins his magical education at a private wizarding academy based in Seoul. He has an affinity for learning new things and he thrives in his new, educational environment though still experiences pressure from his parents to do well.
1887:Yi-Joons older sister gets married.
1890:Yi-Joon does superbly well on his schools equivalent to what would be called OWLs in Hogwarts. He begins studies in how to become an animagus.
1892:Yi-Joon graduates from his academy with excellent marks across the board. Shortly after his graduation, Yi-Joons successfully completes the process of becoming an animagus. He feels it is his greatest achievement to date. He spends his time post-graduation, feeling sort of lost. His life thus far had been more or less strictly regimented and now that he is free to do as he likes for the most part - he finds he has no idea how to do that.
Adulthood
1893 - 18xx
1893:After a year of museless wandering and spending some time with his wanderlust paternal uncle, Yi-Joon takes it upon himself to travel to the British Isles to meet the cousins his Uncle Virgil spoke of - one is a ghost! - though he does realize that his uncles descriptions of his children might be off considering the man had been travelling for who knows how long (a point of contention between Neville and Virgil).

He will be arriving just in time for Christmas. Perhaps there he will find some sort of purpose for his life - or at the very least, perhaps he can have as much fun as humanly possible.

Personality:
strengths: persuasive, charismatic, adventurous, intelligent, independent, resourceful, studious, sassy
weaknesses: stubborn, catty, vain, devious, manipulative, haughty, snobby
likes: cherry blossoms, birds, learning new things, music, exploring places, transfiguration, flying as his animagus form, flowers, beautiful architecture
dislikes: bad body odor, exploding snap, gobstones, being alone, annoying people, being touched without his permission, flying on a broom, dueling
fears: becoming ugly, being trapped in a marriage with someone boring, becoming poor
goals: get to know his cousins, explore what there is to see in the British Isles, have some fun - as much fun as possible without causing a public scandal
habits: if he does not like the look of you or your vibe at first impression (and of course, provided you are not obviously Korean/East Asian like he is), he will pretend he does not speak English. Has a tendency to be warm towards those he cares about such as family and dear friends but cold to everyone else.
hobbies: music, fashion, fine arts, wizards chess, card games, reading, flying in his animagus form, learning new things
