[color=#e1b587]Place of Origin:[/color] Daegu, South Korea [img]https://66.media.tumblr.com/f8ef59cbcf4015354637953f7ba0b66b/tumblr_nv5exnsT2i1ug5ch7o1_500.gif[/img] [color=#e1b587]History:[/color] Kyumin was born on the morning of october 1, 1998 to Myo Namkyung and Park Seonhwa. Seonhwa, or Sasha as she liked to be called, was a korean-american pianist of the american symphony orchestra. she met Namkyung on a trip to korea to visit her family. The two married after only 6 months, and Sasha was pregnant just weeks afterwards. Kyumin was born not even 2 years after they had met. things started out well enough. Sasha came from a wealthy family, and with their help she and her husband and their young son were able to live a comfortable, upper class life. But Sasha yearned to return to the stage, to her life before all of its changes. she sat at the glossy black piano in the parlor and played concertos, sonatas, and waltzes for hours everyday. to appease herself, she began teaching her son. Kyumin learned how to play the piano and walk at the same time. his mother stayed at home and raised him while his father worked. If Kyumin had been older, maybe he would have noticed the signs. the dinners tossed into the trash, the untouched pill bottles, the way she sometimes sat on the piano bench and stared out the window for long periods of time and snapped at him in a way she never snapped at him if he bothered her. She left a note and a promise to keep in touch, but she still went. Kyumin was nine. the loss hit Kyumin’s father hard to say the least. Here was a man who had given up his dreams of becoming a writer to support his wife and their son (who, if he was honest, had been a complete accident). Here was a man whose wife left him with nothing more than a note, a dead end office job, and the responsibility of a young child. Kyumin’s father turned to alcohol. He quit the office job and began writing again, eventually taking up odd jobs to scrape together a living when the parks refused to completely support them. For a while Namkyung and Kyumin lived this way, but their relationship remained distant due to the drinking and perpetual silence. It wasn’t until Kyumin was twelve and his father began trying to get his “fucking memoirs” (as Kyumin likes to call them) published that problems started occurring. Kyumin’s father would take out his frustration on his son. first it was just yelling and cursing, but this soon escalated into full out drunken, severe physical abuse. he would be dragged around by his hair, thrown down the stairs, and choked until he was begging for air. Kyumin pondered suicide. he would take comfort in playing the piano in the parlor. It was an activity he associated with just the good memories of his mother, and he was very good at it to boot. One day, when Kyumin was fourteen and hadn’t been careful enough to check that his father was at work, the man walked in on him playing claire de lune. that night, Kyumin heard the piano being dragged outside, the splintering of wood, and the screeching of strings. a week later, he tried suicide. it turned out that medicine gets less potent over time, so instead of shutting down his heart, the pills in the cabinet just made him vomit a lot. He figured he should end it before his father found out what he’d tried to do, so a couple days later he attempted to hang himself from the ceiling fan in his bedroom. he didn’t half-ass it either: the knots in the rope around his neck were secure, and he’d tested his weight on the ceiling fan beforehand. It almost worked but a neighbor saw him through the window and alerted his father, who got him down right before he punched him in the face. Regardless, the incident must have scared his father because kyumin was left alone for a while. He collected himself and reduced his depression from a storm to just a cloud. eventually he began to think about his future. Though Kyumin made it clear that he wanted to pursue music at least as an extracurricular if not as a career, his father vehemently refused. When Kyumin actually stood up and argued back at his father about the subject, the man threatened to kick him out if he didn’t pursue something more worthwhile, like medicine or economics. shortly after this declaration, his father actually got those fucking memoirs published. he used some of the money to send Kyumin (against his son’s wishes) to Sevit academy, the prestigious and notoriously competitive school. And that’s basically the sad story of Kyumin’s life. Oh, sure, there are brighter moments– he’s always been able to lean on at least a few people for support, and the friends who don’t know anything about it still help him in some way, of course. The time he spent outside of the house was okay, even pleasant sometimes. the abuse continued to the day he moved out; the only difference was that his father could inflict it while sober. Still, Kyumin’s glad that of all the schools his father could have chosen, he chose a boarding school. His father still calls every once in a while to yell at him and tell him he better be making good grades or else. Kyumin still flinches at the sound of his voice. but he’s not so afraid anymore, not now that he finally got out of there. When School is out of session, He uses the money that he saves from his part-time job to rent a apartment over the summer. [color=#e1b587]Misc.:[/color] He no longer plays the piano, becomes when he does it just reminds him of pain now. He always carries a camera around his neck, and takes pictures of things he finds interesting. [img]http://i44.tinypic.com/24xm1li.jpg[/img][/center] [/hider]
