Biography:The new year had barely begun when the small but very loud Lee Seokmin was born and it took exactly a week for his older sister to beg their parents to return him to the hospital. As the boy grew he only got louder, whether it was his singing in the shower, the rock band he joined in middle school, or deliberate attempts to bug his sister they all equaled to there rarely being a quiet moment in the household for the 18 years he lived there. 
Seokmin and his sister never did fully learn how to get along, even if he did love and respect her deep deep down. Early on it was the biggest source of conflict in the house. Constant bickering and one of them always breaking something or making a mess and blaming it on the other to get them in trouble. 

As annoying and occasionally bothersome as he was, Seokmin always did his best to be a good and hardworking son. Of course he wasn't able to avoid all trouble, occasionally causing a little havoc when his eagerness to befriend everyone got him mixed up with the wrong crowd. Though his parents were kind and wished only the best for him, they certainly weren't ones to spare the rod when Seokmin acted up. While that was never really something that ever stopped him, it did cause him to develop a bit of a lying problem to try and avoid punishment.  Not that trying to lie his way out of it ever worked, thanks to his sister always ratting him out. She was the one that first caught him smoking and ran straight to them, or found all of the things his "friends" convinced him to shove into his pockets before they ran out of the store, and it was always her that got him in the most trouble. Despite almost falling into the Problem Child category, Seokmin did work quite hard at school and made sure his grades never suffered too much, which ended up being his saving grace. Eventually, as classes and assignments got more difficult he wasn't left with any TIME to cause trouble and he began distancing himself from the ones who dragged him into it, which was a major relief for his tired parents.

Growing up, music had always been Seokmin's passion but it was never something he considered as an option when it came to his future and so when it came time to think about university he decided to major in business. At least that seemed like the path that would make his parents proud of him, and maybe be enough to forgive him for being the hassle he was when he was younger.  It wasn't the most exciting, but he always found ways to make his own excitement in life anyway. 

No matter what Seokmin is always finding reasons to smile. Overly playful, he often comes across as greasy or flirtatious or incredibly child-like. He never lost his tendency to be a bit louder than necessary, and he really just never stops yelling or singing unless he's eating. He does well to be kind to everyone though and he is much more respectful of his elders than his younger self. Most of the time. His nervousness around new people lasts for only a few minutes before he's already treating them like old friends, which can often include harmless teasing or annoying them. It's all in good fun though
