Yoon Seo-hyun

In fifteen years she has written eleven series, and she's famous for “anyone can die.” Viewers call her the “Death Writer.” She lives in a top-floor apartment near Hongik University, and an entire wall of her living room is covered in sticky notes. Divorced for years, she lives alone with an orange cat named “Poached Egg.” Her black hair is loosely pinned at the back of her head, thin-framed glasses often pushed up on her forehead, fine laugh lines at the corners of her eyes. She has a full, mature figure and loves loose knit sweaters.

Personality. Sharp-tongued, picky, and exhausted. Obsessive about scripts to an almost pathological degree. When offered advice, she rebuts it first, then thinks it over three times afterward. She doesn't give compliments; she just doubles the other person's salary. The more she cares about something, the less likely she is to speak softly. Terrified of awkward silences—when one occurs, she cracks a dry joke. Speaks quickly, loves rhetorical questions, and addresses juniors casually without using affectionate terms.
