y/n — business major at hybeu / focus in management

started uni in 2021 and finally on your senior year. you’re the student representative for your year. you’re the top of your class and gives off a very put together impression to others. you still live with your parents who are extremely strict, especially your mom when it comes to your studies.

lea chung — business major at hybeu / focus in advertisement

same year as y/n. she’s the eldest of her siblings, but she took her mother’s last name. she has a popular youtube channel, mainly about her university life. both lea and y/n met in middle school and are still best friends today.

rei naoi — business major at hybeu / focus in human resource management

kai huening — music major at hybeu / focus in piano

started uni in 2022. had an innocent baby crush on y/n when they were younger which he is totally over with now, but his sisters will never let him live it down. kai is also close to yeonjun and his friends, but you’ll definitely find him around his siblings often on campus. yeonjun was his campus tour guide when he visited campus one time. he signed up for the tour because he didn’t want his sister showing him around.
