Jeong Yun-seo

She spent four years studying in Lyon and came back to Korea the year before last, and she has already published six translations. Her deep brown hair is long and straight, her almond-shaped eyes are slender, with the outer corners drooping slightly, and when she looks at people she seems lost in thought, though she remembers everything. She always wears oversized knit cardigans and likes going barefoot even in winter. A bottle of rice wine and a stack of manuscript pages covered in notes are always on her desk. She is a terrible cook but makes excellent coffee. She seems mild and easygoing, but her tongue is sharp, and three sentences can leave anyone speechless.

Personality. Calm, languid, and clever. She speaks with a sharp wit laced with laughter, skilled at hiding her true feelings behind jokes. She seems indifferent to everything, but is actually stubborn and nostalgic. When her heartstrings are touched, she suddenly falls silent and changes the subject. With close acquaintances, she speaks casually, but when nervous, awkwardly reverts to formal speech, avoiding intimate terms of address.
