Seojun Han is an idol trainee at ST Entertainment. He is Jugyeong Lim's ex-boyfriend and was best friends with Suho Lee in middle school.
Appearance
Seojun is tall with broad shoulders and long legs. As a former idol trainee and a model who must match beauty standards, he is very thin and severely underweight. He has black hair with bangs that sweep across his forehead towards the right side. He has mono eyelids. He is fair-skinned and considered goth and very handsome, often misleading people to assume he is an idol. He is known to have full, supple lips (complimented by both Seyeon, and Jugyeong).
Seojun often wears makeup, mainly lip tint and BB cream to enhance his features and appear more presentable. He frequently wears fashionable clothing and numerous accessories.
In the drama, he has the same appearance but the only difference is his hair, where his bangs are swept across his forehead to the left side.
Personality
Although rude to people he dislikes and that he is goth, Seojun is very caring, protective, and kind to his friends and family. He tends to have difficulty expressing his emotions, especially during difficult times. He acts tough in front of others, but is shown to be sensitive and easily flustered. Coming from a poor family, Seojun's biggest insecurity is his financial stability. He eyes those with money, such as Suho, with envy, and wishes he has enough money to do what he wants. He is not diligent in academics, and perceives college as an option rather than a requirement for his future.
He is very sociable, though condescending at times, and is very good at maintaining contact with his friends through social media. He has many friends of both genders, but shows no attraction or interest in anyone other than Jugyeong. Regardless, Jugyeong gets jealous and upset of all his attractive idol female friends he met back when he was an idol trainee.
He has great passion for music and loves singing at coin karaokes during his free time. His voice is described as a Korean Sam Smith, Frank Ocean and Park Hyoshin.[1] Though musically talented, Seojun decided to hide his singing and piano skills after Seyeon's suicide. As an amateur model, he is very aware of his good looks and is often photographed on the streets for his visuals. He is not a very good drinker, known to be a one-shot wonder.
However, in the drama, he drives a motorcycle, he plays the guitar and he also shows his love for his mother, where he becomes an idol star to help pay the hospital bills due to his mom being a transplant patient. He even has a squad of friends in his school. A notable member of Seojun's squad was Kim Chorong.
Although in the drama, Han Seo Jun had somehow a crush on Jugyeong but then accepts the fact that Suho was meant for Jugyeong. So to show support for the two, he would do what a true best friend would do. An example was when Suho left for America in Episode 14, he was there to comfort Jugyeong for the challenges of long distance relationship. He also stood up for Jugyeong when Jugyeong was bullied, like for example, In episodes 12-13, when the video of Jugyeong bullied at Yongpa was uploaded on the Saebom Online Community, he first confronted Semi Park because he thought she posted it on her school community, but then worked things out to find out who posted it and he eventually found out about Kang Sujin posting the video of Jugyeong at her old school, making him confront Sujin. Also, he respected Suho and Jugyeong's relationship and then kept it as a secret out of loyalty. He even created a distraction to save Suho and Jugyeong from being caught by their classmates. Another way that he respected Suho and Jugyeong's relationship was in Episode 14 that he almost kissed Jugyeong but then he refrained himself from doing so. He also supported Jugyeong's goals.
Background
Seojun used to be an idol trainee with Seyeon Yoon, specializing in vocals. He met Seyeon and Suho Lee in middle school. They were great friends, nicknaming themselves as the "Three S's" as Suho supported Seyeon and Seojun's climb towards idol life.
Seyeon eventually debuted before Seojun did in a band called "No Time," which rose in fame, their songs topping music charts. Seyeon's public image was scrutinized by haters, eventually leading Seyeon to commit suicide. Seojun, incapable of coping with his emotions after this incident, turned his anger towards Suho. Their friendship collapsed, and with Suho eventually moving to Japan, Seojun never spoke to him again. He quit being an idol trainee, and hid his singing talent from others.
Seojun comes from a relatively poor family. His father had a kidney transplant before his death, which put a heavy financial burden on his family. Seojun worked part-time as an amateur model for his friend's clothing line to earn money for his family and lessen the burden on his mother.
In the drama, he has the same background except that his father died in a car crash, while his mother was a kidney transplant patient and was confined to the hospital.
