He believes that after seeing people on their worst days in his job, that laughter is the best medicine. He is always the first to lend a helping hand when needed, and is always there when you call him. He looks for the good in everyone. However, there is a flip side to that coin when it pertains to himself. He is very doubtful of his skills and is always looking to better himself, believing that he could always do more. Woo doesn't back down at the first sign of trouble, instead is usually at the front of the line when there is danger.

While his father was a well-known cardiothoracic surgeon, his mother was a stay-at-home mother and housewife. Along with his little sister Sunni, they attended the best private schools and always enjoyed the finer things in life. Until his father suddenly fell ill at the age of fifty-seven and passed away. Woo was only ten, his sister seven. They were able to live off of his father's pension for almost two years before their mother gave into her demons, taking her own life. As the two had no other immediate living family, they were sent off to live in Scarsdale, New York, with their father's nephew. The family still had a bit of money and they were able to afford to give Woo and Sunni a comfortable life in the wealthy neighborhood. He attended the local high school with a want to follow in his father's footsteps in the healthcare field. However, he wanted the adventure of going to different scenes instead of being stuck in a hospital. Woo joined the cross-country team and won several medals for his wins. To the disappointment of the family, after high school he enrolled in the community college and took EMT courses. He knew that the money wouldn't be what he was used to, but that wasn't why he took the job. All Woo cared about was an exciting career, and the chance to help people at the exact moment when they needed it the most. After graduation, the family advised him that they did not revoke his Korean citizenship. Which meant he was required to enlist in the military back home. On his twenty-first birthday, Woo moved back to his homeland and started his three-year service. His sister remained behind with the family and they rarely kept in touch. Soon his time was served and he decided to move back to the states, where he was offered a job as an EMT for the city of Scarsdale. He bought a small two-bedroom townhouse for himself and his sister with what was left of his father's pension, yet she refused to move in, deciding to move back to Korea instead. He began his career with the city and has been alone ever since. [b][color=tan]Survivor's Personal Journal:[/color][/b] It had been a normal, quiet day in the city. Woo had just started his twenty-four hour shift and was just looking forward to playing cards with the other guys while waiting for calls. He hadn't expected much, as the usual dispatch was just for minor car accidents or Ms. Joan Dilworth's perpetual loneliness. As he finished inspecting and stocking the ambulance, that calm day turned chaotic. Both his satellite phone and personal cell started ringing off the hook from both his boss and various hospitals seeking assistance. While they were not necessarily told of the situation, he just knew that it was an high-priority emergency. A pandemic. He, along with his partner, Joey, overstocked the wagon and made sure the emergency backpack was fully stocked. They were told of the lockdown, and the destruction of the bridge leading into the city. But they were needed there, more than they were needed in their small town. Something huge was happening. The two sped off into the city but didn't get very far, as the roads were backed up and nobody cared that their siren's were blaring. They witnessed a major car accident just before the bridge and both EMTs rushed to the scene on foot. It didn't take very long for the partners to get separated in the swarm of people running. When he finally returned to the ambulance, Joey was long gone. He knew he wouldn't be able to get anywhere with the wagon. Grabbing both phones and his emergency bookbag, he headed off to help where he could.
