[TOKYO] MENTOR INFO
→mentor: Kim Mingyu

→first impressions:
• His :
he already can tell that she is pretty naive for a foreigner with (he thought) harder societies in overseas country, just in one handshake. at the first he pitty her for being too trustworthy, yet doesnt really care since he thought that she wont be that important for him to change her become "more evil".
• Hers :
she can tell that he is kind using a "natural mask", but she ignores it since he was so nice and easy going. he is fun to be around, and also dependable pretty much like her. but in the end she cant help but thought that sometimes he does never really care about her, only formalities. due to this uncomfyness, she decided to take off his natural mask by confront his behavior.

→his personality:
he is the type of person that everyone likes, beside of his good looking appearance, he also has the easy going personality. he easily getting along with new people and also easy to give help. he is basically talented in everything, seems like he is skillful and can do anything, and that's why everyone around him try their best to use him since he is also dependable. he is popular for this kind personality, that being called by claire as his "natural mask".
he never refused people's request tho, even he is fully aware that he is being used. in the end, they always receive their karma—that unfortunately, revenged up by him.
in the first place, he is quite manipulative and smooth in giving influence to other people. he can use other people to do what he wants, including make people who used him in the first place getting their "karma". he is also brutally honest and sassy, mostly talking back and questioning their logic. but anyway, people will never this bad side of him, except claire who caught his natural mask in the first place.

→how you act around each other:
• Him :
He, using his natural mask in the first place, is really helpful, dependable, and fun to be around. But after claire confront him about not to use his mask anymore, he, being his original self, treat her strictly. he is brutally honest and mostly talk back to her, questioning her logic in almost every sentence or every decision she made. it is kinda annoying, consider that he is also treat her with less kindness. but as the time pass, he start to taking care of her a lot more and become a little bit friendly, even though the meaness never really left him.
• Her :
She is pretty clueless about almost everything since her naiveness make her so, but it doesn't mean that she is innocent. At some point, she is very logical and fully aware by her surrounding, including his manipulative behavior. At the first she decided wont get involved with her mentor more than just accompany, but as the time pass by she does realize that he cares for her more and she slowly getting comfortable with the two faced of him.

→do you want him to be your love interest?
yes, huehehe /internal crying/

→relationship:
• Begin : frenemies perhaps? since she confront him about his personality and he ended up being super sassy to her.
• Middle : they are a quite good patner, especially in cooking and food hunting (?). they are oftenly out to stroll and grab a bite of foods, and they started to be good friends.
• End : preferably a confusing relationship? lol. like they know that they like each other but they arent in a serious relationship or what due to her commitment not to get a boyfriend. but idk i give it to you for their ending :3

→suggested scenes:
• she confront him about his two faced personality, right after they introduce themselves.
• she is always accompanied by her mentor when she goes home, after she was getting bullied. her mentor wants to make sure that she wont get lost and ended up being a bully object and anything bad since she has a pretty much foreigner vibe and looks.
• when her mentor gives her a culinary tour and they ended up will full stomach after strolling around the city. the next day, they decided to go to market to buy bunches of ingredients and they ended up in her mentor's kitchen, do a duet cooking and make several menus just to be their dinner.
• when they go to an orchestra (whether she with her friends or with her mentor, any is fine) and she ended up being a crying mess because she missed playing her violin so much. and her mentor spent all night to comfort her with deep talks and stuffs.
• when she decided to make up the mess they left in her mentor's kitchen after duet cooking, and end up with some more mess since she is bad in doing house chores, and ended up being scolded by her mentor
• when she fangirled over akmu and her friends cant understand why she freaked out in that way
