Appearance
Face Claim: Stray Kids' Han Jisung/Jisung Han
He's definitely a cute kid, and he can be handsome depending on the day and whether or not he's smiling. He's been told that he's cuter when he smiles but he's pretty charismatic from time to time when he's not smiling or just performing (he likes to do street performances or school festival performances from time to time). He's thin but can definitely hold his own if he had to fight or anything, and really, he's bulked out over the years, especially after reaching college.. Auggie isn't the type of kid to wear anything stand outish and tends to gravitate towards neutral colors or darker colors. He has this tendency to layer his shirts if the weather permits and just tends to wear jeans or something similar. He's not particularly fond of shorts and seldom wears them even when it's really warm out.
Personality
Likes.
- Snacks. Auggie tends to snack a lot when he doesn't have time for full meals. Usually, that's sometimes during test weeks at school, and when he's working when he doesn't have time to go out and grab something. (Ironically, he works at a cafe part time, but doesn't eat as much as people think he does).
- He's fairly into music? He doesn't think he'd do anything with it in the future but it makes for a great hobby. Plus it gives him something to do when school work is too much and he just needs a break.
- Hanging out with friends. He doesn't have much in the way of friends if he's honest, most of them being out of state - as well, he went to Washington for college, but some of his childhood friends had stayed in Colorado or went elsewhere. He likes getting to hang out with them and any other new friends he's made while in Cedar Beach.
Dislikes.
- Making people talk about something they don't want to. It's not that he won't listen or anything to that subject but if it visibly makes someone uncomfortable or if he can sense that it makes them uncomfortable, he doesn't press the situation and will go out of his way to avoid what made the other party uncomfortable in the first place.
- Not getting enough sleep. He usually averages about 5 or 6 a night and there are some days he goes with less than that but he usually functions the best with about 6 hours of sleep. If he has more, than he's fine but if he has less, he probably has a few cups of coffee or sodas during the day for the caffeine.
- People mentioning he's got an anger problem. He's quite aware of it thank you very much.
Strengths.
- He doesn't take people's shit. Auggie isn't the type of kid who lets someone walk all over him. He'll meet you eye for eye, tooth for tooth. And if there's a fight involved, you can bet he's the last one standing. And if he isn't, he's going to take as many of those mother fuckers with him as possible.
- He's surprisingly good at studying? He doesn't look the type sometimes, but he's fairly good at studying. He gets topics quite easily, and underestands things quickly with a few problem sets here and there. He doesn't get everything (history is his achilles heel), but he's decent with most things.
Weaknesses.
- He's a little bit self destructive. This was more predominant when he was younger. He had the tendency to pick fights or have fights picked for him and he never backed down. He's not as bad now, but he still has some of those tendencies. It sort of scares his friends.
- He has this fear of being left behind and like abandoned. This line of thoughts is slowly leaving him but he used to think that he was unwanted and unloved. It was something that made him get into a lot of fights when he was younger.

Feelings Toward: Misses dearly, but also doesn't have that many memories of.
SIBLING
Name: Issac Jiseok Mun
Birth Year: 1994
Occupation: Does something in biology, Auggie doesn't understand it too much.
Feelings Toward: He took care of him growing up, someone he could count on always, especially after they immigrated with an aunt to the States. A solid rock of support whenever he needed it. They were very rocky when they were children though - most of it was Auggie's fault.
AUNT
Name: Hwayeon Mun
Birth Year: 1976
Occupation: Does something in Education. (Auggie thinks she was teaching English before he went off to College).
Feelings Toward: Someone he can count on. He feels a little bad for because she really took care of Jiseok and himself after their parents died. She left Korea early on for university, and stayed in the states after. However, after their parents died, she took them in and immigrated them to the States.)
History
Augustus Mun was born the younger of two children to a fairly young-ish family in Seoul with an older brother about 6 to 7 years older than he was. He's not too sure what was going on when he was born but within the first year or so of his birth, Auggie was sent to live with his grandparents in Jeju instead of being raised in Seoul with his brother. Auggie doesn't really know the circumstances of that decision but over all, it ended up being a decision they didn't want to make, his parents, but one that they had to because they were unable to comfortably provide for two children. Because of this, Auggie had an estranged relationship with his parents and an even worse relationship with his older brother Jiseok, especially as a young child.
Auggie picked fights with kids all the time and even if half the fights were other kids starting it, you could bet that Auggie finished them. A lot of the fights revolved around the fact that Auggie didn't live with his parents or his older brother. And it angered Auggie. A lot. After his grandmother found out the reason why he came home with bruises and scraped knees, she never held it against him. And instead, just quietly fixed his booboos and made him food and let him cry himself to sleep in her arms because he believed what the kids said; that he wasn't wanted. This happens until he's 7.
When he was 7, he heard that his brother had gotten into an accident. Now, as mentioned, Auggie's relationship with his brother was frosty, and antagonistic. Auggie hadn't honestly worried about it but he flew out to Seoul with his grandmother anyways because even if he didn't like his brother, his grandmother loved him and that was enough for him. He ended up spending a couple of terse nights in the hospital while his brother's life hung on the edge and his mother and grandmother cried. Auggie was honestly awkward and standoffish the entire time, mostly because he hadn't interacted with his parents enough during his childhood but again, also because he wasn't the fondest of his brother. On the third day, they get news that Jiseok is stable and everything is okay. The little family is ushered into the ICU room where he's housed and for the first time, Auggie couldn't place the emotion he felt when he saw his brother hooked up to all the machines but alive. And it wasn't hatred.
They spend a couple more days there before his grandmother and Auggie head back to Jeju, everyone less on edge now that Jiseok had survived. And then about a month later, after the accident, Auggie returns home from school, supporting new bruises and a busted knuckle or two, to find his brother sitting at the lunch table with his grandmother. He's confused for a moment, and then his mother walks out from the kitchen, is about to greet him but then she takes a good look at his face. She sort of freaks out a little and Auggie brushes off her concern, very keenly aware that his brother was watching him - and noting that he healed rather quickly Jiseok did - and just heads to his room. He doesn't know what his grandmother tells them but he doesn't care. Auggie pretty much hides in his room for about two hours or so until dinner is ready and by the time he heads down, he's already deduced that his parents and his brother were moving in. Auggie honestly didn't care.
It goes on that way for a few days and then it bleeds into a few weeks. He talks with his parents a little when he gets off of school - he notes that his parents are more into getting to know him - Auggie figures it's the fear of having almost lost Jiseok almost a month and a half back. He doesn't mind it but he's admittedly a little awkward. Of course, it doesn't stop him from getting into fights - most of it is still stemming from the other kids being horrid to him and bothering him about how he's unwanted and that they moved to Jeju was because his brother needed someone to watch him not to have the family together. This goes on for a few months. And really, after the third time his mother freaked out when he walked in with bruises on his face and busted knuckles, he stopped using the front door and started entering the house through the kitchen door/back door. (Admittedly, when Auggie thinks about it now, perhaps it was because he hadn't been around his mother for too long, he unconsciously took her worry and concern as disappointment and took different routes to avoid making her upset - which Jiseok tells him later that it made her even more worried.) Through all of this, Auggie doesn't exactly have a full conversation with his brother, at all. Not once. Auggie theorizes it was partly his own avoiding tendencies because of his strained relationship with his brother and the differences in their school schedules - after all, Auggie was in primary and Jiseok was in High School.
The first full conversation with Jiseok sort of freaks Auggie out a little bit. He's just a few days shy of turning 11, and he's entering the house through the kitchen doors again and he finds Jiseok standing in the kitchen, helping their grandmother cook. Their grandmother sort of sighs at him, and Jiseok eyes him. Auggie knows he's looking at the bruises and he sort of plays petulant little brother and moves to head up to his room. Jiseok follows him out and Auggie is a little hostile when he drops off his bag and his brother is standing in the doorway of his room. He's expecting something snarky as it is with Jiseok or something degrading because his brother was an asshole. Except he gets a, "You should stop getting into fights. Mother's worried." Naturally he snarks back and tells Jiseok it's none of his business and for his brother to leave him alone. Surprisingly, Jiseok sort of frowns and tells him that he's Auggie's brother. It is his business. That and he'll go tell their grandmother to boil some eggs for his face. Auggie is confused, and somewhere in that, Jiseok 'scrossed his room and is ruffling his hair before walking out, muttering something. (Auggie thinks he's sick or has a few screws loose. A few of his friends at school tell him maybe it's because he's had a change of heart - almost dying does that after all. Auggie honestly scoffed at that.)
He's 10 when his parents pass away, another accident. He doesn't really remember anything that happened up to, the incident, and after. He remembers sitting really numb at the hospital and eventually, he was let into the room to see his parents. His mother was unconscious but his father was somewhat lucid. He doesn't remember what they talked about and that really, he ended up in tears through it all. The doctor takes him out of the room and it's just Jiseok and their parents. It feels like hours but Jiseok leaves the room pretty much sobbing too. Their parents are declared dead by the end of the night.
An aunt of theirs will come down to help with funeral things, trying to help them get adjusted. By the end of everything, she offers to help take care of them and move them all to the states with live with her. They do so and eventually, just shy of his 11th birthday, he finds himself in Everett, Washington. He honestly has a rough time adapting, part of it a language barrier, and his parents just passed. He resorts back to honestly, his old ways and gets into fights like all the time. His aunt gets really tired of having to go talk to his school teachers. After a while, she sends Jiseok in her stead, he's pretty much his legal guardian anyways. (Hwayeon loves her nephews but really, the moment Jiseok was legal, she tossed Auggie over to him. His little brother was his problem.)
He'll chill out a little bit by the time he gets to high school. There he'll mesh in a little better with the students, his grasp on English is better, and well, Jiseok told him to fucking chill out. (Also, his brother was in college, and interning places and didn't have the time to go fetch him out of school. If he wanted to fight, Jiseok would happily engage him in fighting.) Auggie tries. He also finds other outlets for his anger, and gains a hobby (Music).
In high school, he'll make some friends, some he likes more than others. Some he was friends with because other kids were friends with them, and really one of the kids he liked and got along with the best was a kid named Julin Woo. Auggie never really understood why people didn't like him but Auggie got along with him quite well. It helped they were both Korean (never mind location in Korea), and they had some sad similarities. Auggie doesn't poke him of course, and in turn, unless he brought it up, Auggie doesn't talk about his stuff. After all, his stuff and background was probably tame compared to jumpy Julin.
High school is high school. He goes to school, hates some classes, sleeps through others, and graduates with the rest of his class. He'll initially pick a community college in Everett to go to for a few years, making time to hang out with friends when he can. Later, he'll transfer over to UW for school. Part of it was because the community college he was attending in Everett didn't have some classes he wanted to take, and the other part was his brother was moving to Cedar Beach for his job - it was an easy enough commute.
Auggie's in his last few years of university now, though his high school friends expected him to graduate a year ago. Auggie had laughed a little because some of them probably did a 4 year cirriculum. Auggie had opted to lump his bachelors and his masters program together and do a 6 year program. He's majoring in accounting and business management. Currently, he works at a cafe as a barista in between classes, mostly taking shifts Thurs-Sun. On weekends, he tends to work mornings, with the evenings off for himself.
