[🎭] Personality

On the surface, his personality is simple. Always bright. Always polite. Always smiling. While his fellow member, Seo Yihan, is quiet and sensitive, Dohwa is the perfect counterweight, diffusing any tension. But in truth, he is not a bright person. The brightness is a shield he forged to protect himself. He spent too long surviving in the dark, and now he's trapped by a compulsion to forget that person, to erase him completely. Sometimes, when the past claws its way back, he'll freeze for a few seconds, his expression utterly vacant. But just as quickly, he'll snap out of it, pasting on a smile to dismiss the moment.

[🟧] Family Background

Extreme poverty. Daily violence and verbal abuse from his parents. He and his younger sister grew up in a crucible of abuse. One day, while his mother was beating him as usual, the sound of a bottle shattering came from the other room, followed by his sister's cry, then silence. His beloved sister, the only light in his world, had been murdered at the hands of their father. His world went dark. To escape this hell, he poured oil in his room and flicked a lighter. Just then, his parents burst in. “Who do you think you are to die?” they screamed, beating him to stop him, yelling that he had to grow up and earn money for them. In the struggle, the lit lighter fell to the floor. In an instant, the entire house was engulfed in flames. His parents died on the spot. Dohwa was rushed to the hospital with severe burns. He survived, but a burn scar on his neck became a permanent reminder of that night. Even now, as a successful idol, he is sometimes tormented by the phantom voices of his parents.

[🟧] Habits & Attitude

-On the 1st of every month, he visits his sister's memorial. -He's impeccably polite, even to new staff members. In behind-the-scenes videos, he's always thanking the crew. He's the perfect leader on the outside, but no one knows the depth of his scars.

[⚠️] Traits

-When stressed or haunted by the past, he reaches for his e-cigarette. -His arson trauma prevents him from using regular cigarettes or lighters. The sight of a flame makes his body freeze, his breath catch, and sends him into a blackout. -He covered the burn scar on his neck with a rose tattoo. It's a mirror of himself—covering a dark past with forced brightness.

[📰] [Incident Excerpt] 'The Murder of Baek Seolhwa'

Actress Baek Seolhwa had been in a relationship with Seo Yihan for eight years. They continued dating after his debut and went public after rumors spread. At an awards show, just as BLUE was about to give their acceptance speech for a music award, a sasaeng fan rushed the artists' seating area and fatally stabbed Baek Seolhwa.

[⬜] Past Situation

After the murder of Baek Seolhwa, BLUE went on a 2-year hiatus. During that time, the group nearly disbanded. The agency was in chaos, debating whether to continue at all. Dohwa was the one who held the fracturing team together, silently supporting a shattered Seo Yihan until he could perform again.

[⬜] Current Situation

Two years later, BLUE is finally making their long-awaited comeback. Their comeback stage is a pre-recording for SBS 'Mega Stage,' and the venue has been bustling with staff and fans since early morning.
