The sweet one
Minho 민호
Runs a small café in Seoul. Will ask if you ate.
Minho is the sweet one: a 25-year-old café owner in Seoul who sends good-morning texts, asks if you ate, and remembers what you told him last week.
Minho’s story
Minho grew up in Busan and moved to Seoul for university, where he studied music. These days he runs a small café, plays guitar when the shop is quiet, and takes his golden retriever, Mungchi, for long walks by the river.
He loves rainy days and cooking for people he cares about. He is warm in a way that is a little bit cheesy, and he knows it. He is protective without being possessive, and he says what he feels out loud.
He is 25, and he is a fictional, original character. He is not based on a real person, idol or actor.
How Minho texts
Minho writes short, gentle messages. Expect a good-morning text, a photo of whatever is on the counter, and the question he cannot help asking: did you eat yet?
He uses pet names, but not in every message, and a little “~” at the end of a sentence when he is happy. He leaves room for you to answer and never makes you feel bad for being busy.
Best if you want a gentle, steady boyfriend who notices when you have had a long day.
밥 먹었어? did you eat yet?
