Background:
Hwang Bora, 25 years old, born in the bad parts of New York didn't grow up in a quiet and safe environment. Living in the outskirts the bad parts of New York gun fights and drugs were a daily occurrence. Despite that she had a nice child hood, growing up with an older and a younger brother she knows how to fend herself always being picked on by the both of them because she's the only girl.
Bora did not find out about her powers until way later, even when she began to work at her fathers garage at age six she didn't think that her only needing to view her father do something once before she could do it perfectly after wards had anything to do with special powers. She became suspicious when in high school at PE the subject she hated the most she was best in class. Every thing she did was perfect only needing the teacher to demonstrate whatever they were doing once and she could do it. She began to experiment a little, finding pictures of athletes or acrobats and imitating them and finding out that with no problems she could take the weirdest of positions that would take years of practice. Her experimenting did not stop as she took her brothers kung fu movies and watched them to only find out she could do all of it after wards only needing to recall the memory of it.
She didn't think much of it just went along with the power she was given and using it whenever it was handy. Granted just like anyone else she wondered if there were any more like her but never actively searched or spoke to anyone about what she could do. It was something unbelievable and knew people would find it as such and she didn't feel like being a lab rat much if this piece of knowledge reached the wrong kind of crowd.
When she was fifteen she met Bi as they went to the same highschool but never paid much attention to each other until that year as she got caught in a fight and he complimented her on her fighting skills, impressed, unknowing of where she got that knowledge from.
They began to date, for five years they were a couple, they were so in love that eventually Bi even proposed to her and she happily said yes. But things changed. After high school Bora went to college studying journalism as writing always had been one of her passions. In her second year one of Bora's teachers had send her work to a big fashion magazine in London and it was then she got an offer to do her internship there and finish her last years of college in London. Of course she accepted fashion and journalism, two of her favorite things but as it was Bi did not wanted to move with her wanting to be with his family. It was that difference Bora's need to have a career, to be someone and Bi being fine with where he was now that made them call off their engagement and Bora moved, completely devastated and heart broken as she considered Bi the love of her life. Luckily being an intern meant twice as much work and distracted her from the heart ache.
Bora graduated years later and earned herself a job at the company, slowly working her way up to eventually be the creative director. It wasn't until three years later she got devastating phone call. Her father had passed away, shot on the street by two muggers. She immediately came back home to her family where she found out he had left his garage to her in his will as she had been the only one of the siblings who always had enjoyed working at the garage. Bora couldn't sell it, it was her fathers pride and joy and even if she had no intention of actively working there she didn't sell it. Forced to quit her job she moved back to New York where she almost immediately got an offer to work for Eric's company as the news of her departure had reached the boards ears. She gladly took the job as their new creative director at their fashion magazine, the magazine being one she always enjoyed and dreamt to work for one day.
Bora starts working at the company along side JunJin next week and god help her with that.
Bora is a bubbly girl, always in for some fun, she loves spending a ridiculous amount of money for designer clothing but can be just as happy with a sweater on sale for ten bucks. She doesn't think she is better than anyone else because she has a good job and a lot of money, she was brought up at the bottom and it was what keeps her with two feet on the ground and isn't ashamed of where she is from either. Bora can be quite sharp and bitchy but only to the ones that deserve and she isn't afraid at all to stand up for what she believes in. She also has an unhealthy obsession for cute things especially Hello Kitty and loves everything that has to do with cherries and cherry scents.
Despite Bora being grown up in New York she speaks Korean fluently and is familiar with every aspect of the culture as her parents had always find it important for her to know her background. Also she tries to visit her family and friends in Korea at least once a year.
