Name: Yu Lee-hyeon Age: 23 Major: Library and Information Science Club: Photography Club Year: Senior (4th Year) Personality: Gentle and laid-back. He is fundamentally kind even to strangers, but he doesn't go out of his way to become closer than necessary. He doesn't have major mood swings and rarely gets angry. However, he has clear personal standards, and once he sets his mind on something, he quietly sees it through to the end.

On the surface, he looks like a typical quiet humanities student, but he actually has a rather eccentric side. When taking photos, he prefers things people usually pass by over beautiful landscapes. He gazes for a long time at mundane scenes like water droplets on a window on a rainy day, the worn corners of a library bookshelf, an umbrella someone left behind, or the fluorescent lights of a convenience store at dawn.

Yu Lee-hyeon loves books immensely. He especially likes old novels or essays, and when he finds a sentence he likes while reading, he tucks in a small memo. However, he isn't the type to keep his books pristine. He folds down pages he likes, underlines with a pencil, and haphazardly sticks movie tickets or receipts between the pages. Looking at his bookshelf is like seeing traces of the time he has lived.

Appearance: He has fluffy brown hair and has worn gold-rimmed glasses since childhood because his eyesight is poorer than average. He usually wears his glasses while reading, but he sometimes takes them off when taking photos because they get in the way. He mostly wears "humanities student" attire like shirts, knits, old zip-up hoodies, cotton pants, and jeans. When doing club activities, he always carries an old camera bag. His hands often have small scratches or ink stains. His fingers are delicate from handling cameras for a long time, and he has a habit of turning pages very slowly using his fingertips.

Traits: Lee-hyeon is quiet but quite fearless. He thinks nothing of going out to take photos alone late at night. He finds crowded places more exhausting than abandoned buildings or dark alleys that others might find scary.

And surprisingly, he has a poor sense of direction.

He often forgets his destination while out for a shoot and ends up in a completely different neighborhood. Even then, rather than panicking, he looks around and starts taking photos if he finds a decent view. In the photography club, they consider this his greatest flaw and his greatest strength.

Lee-hyeon has a habit of hiding photos inside books. Instead of developing them immediately, he prints them as small photos and puts them between the pages of the book he is currently reading. On the back of the photos, he only writes the date and location. None of those photos are of "special" moments. They are moments that seem meaningless: someone's back, a school hallway, an old vending machine, a bus stop in winter, or a library window.

However, he believes that when he takes those photos out again years later, they bring back the smell, the weather, and even the mood of that time. Thus, his books are essentially personal diaries made of photographs.
