jessica - herbrew origin; means 'rich; god beholds, god sees'
yoona - korean name; means 'dove; graceful'
park - common korean family name; means 'plain'
nicknames - jess, sica

`in depth
jessica is korean, but her name is american, so she and her family pronounce it in a korean accent. when she introduces herself to english speakers, she pronounces it correctly, the american way. but among her family and korean friends, her name is pronounced 'jesheeka' just because of the way the koreans pronounce certain letters due to their alphabet. so her nickname 'sica' would be pronounce 'sheeka.' it's weird for americans to hear so she just sticks to the normalized version of her name. her parents like to refer to her as her given korean name, yoona, so she knows she's in trouble when they actually yell out 'jessica'


`b i r t h
current age - fifteen
birthday - may 1, 2028

planet - venus - venus is the planet of beauty and love so they crave and indulge in tenderness, satisfaction, and gratitude.

current residence - paris, france
ethnicity - korean
blood status - muggle born
socioeconomic status - upper middle class
voice - jessica has a noticeable korean accent when she speaks english despite being fluent in english for nearly all her life
languages - korean, english, french (learned in that order & from most fluent to least fluent)

`in depth
jessica's dad is actually an american-born korean, but he met her mom while stationed in south korea and they fell in love. because her dad is in the military, they moved around a lot so jessica never really knows what to answer when people ask her where she grew up and it stresses her out at times! does she answer with where she was born, where she actually grew up, or where she last lived? so many possibly answers!


`a p p e a r a n c e
playby - shin hyejeong ♥
race/ethnicity - asian; korean
hair - jessica was born with brown hair but she has recently began experimenting with it. she had it ombre, then blonde for a year and currently it is pink with blonde on top. she is already thinking of switching up her hair color but she likes the pink for now.
eyes - brown, almond shaped, expressive
height - jessica is unusually tall for someone of her ethnicity but is pretty average generally. she is 5 feet 7 inches tall

`w a n d
dominant hand - right
curved 10" whippy ivy wand with billywig stinger core
length ten inches - a fairly average length for a wand, not at all uncommon or very special.
style curved - bending to its side, this wand is more difficult to aim than its straighter counterparts but provides character that some simply cannot pass by
wood - ivy - ivy wands are best suited for social wizards and witches who adapt well in difficult situations and thrive. they also seem to have a knack for healing magic.
core - billywig stinger - billywig stingers make for temperate cores, but they are mildly useful when used to heal. wands with this core tend to what they want to do, making them good for people who are flexible in nature.
flexibility - whippy - a wand that is quite simple to master but lacks power


`e d u c a t i o n
school - beauxbatons academy of magic
current year - fifth year
best subjects - charms, muggle studies
worst subjects - history of magic
classes - [grades pending owls this year] defense against the dark arts, history of magic, muggle studies, charms, transfiguration, divination
career aspiration - professional quidditch player for either the holyhead harpies or the tuscan charmers; after that she has no idea what to do when she has to retire but isn't too fussed with figuring it out because her sights are set on quidditch

`p e r s o n a l i t y
5 words - adventurous, spontaneous, flirty, unfocused, impulsive
positives - big heart, caring, sociable, persistent, devoted, creative, loyal
negatives - stubborn, too carefree, lax, selfish, insecure, reckless, obsessive
likes - quidditch, spontaneous trips, sports, flirting, muggle music, dancing, dying her hair, traveling
dislikes - authority, routine, likes traveling but hates moving, classes, feeling inferior to her sisters even though she's the oldest
strengths - loyalty, drive, daring
loyalty - when she is loyal to you she will absolutely not give up on you and be your biggest supporter
drive - jessica does not stop going after what she wants no matter what
daring - she is not afraid to try anything once because she sees all experiences as positive/a way to learn/a good story
weaknesses - unfocused, insecure, flirty
unfocused - while jess is a taurus in so many ways and is focused on a goal, it gives her tunnel vision and she only cares about the one thing on her mind
insecure - although jess acts like she has the most confidence in the world, she is actually pretty insecure about a lot of things. she's insecure about her background being a military brat, her accent, her sisters being better than her even though they're younger, not being pretty enough, etc.
flirty - jess loves to flirt and she sees nothing wrong with it, but sometimes it can land her in sticky situations where she leads someone on accidentally or if she really likes someone but they won't take her advances seriously because she talks that way with everyone
goals - to be scouted for a professional quidditch team early before her graduation so she won't have to finish school; to be on the holyhead harpies or tuscan charmers team
fears - failing all her classes and then having scouts turn her away because of that; her hair falling out after she's dyed it so many times; continuously disappointing her parents


`m i s c e l l a n e o u s
patronus - penguin
expecto patronum - the time she made the quidditch team because it was something she tried all on her own & her sisters didn't overshadow her
boggart - all her hair will fall out from dying it too much
riddikulus - when she pulls on her hair, it'll just be a wig so her real hair is perfectly fine
animagus - n/a (but if possible, a black cat)
amortentia - wood polish, grass, tbd
mirror of erised - if jess were to look into the mirror of erised she wouldn't really understand what the image represented at first, because it would be of her and all her sisters smiling and being happy with her. but what it means is that her true desire is to feel completely at peace with her sisters without comparing herself to them and being truly okay with each other's differences
veritaserum - jessica has no 'deep dark' secrets that requires veritaserum to get out of her at the moment, she's a pretty open book.

sexuality - bisexual
first kiss - second year with a girl in third year, bianca goldstein
relationship status - single (interested in somebody)
innocence status - still intact.

Mother

Eunji Park (nee Nguyen), 38
Oncologist

Personality: Eunji is a bit more on the serious side as a parent. She was raised to obey and respect your elders, being a Korean native. She became a doctor which was more than her parents expected of her, since they expected her to stay in Korea as a house wife, so now she expects so much more from her own daughters.

Relationship with Sica: Their relationship isn't 'strained' but most of the pressure that Jessica feels comes from her mom. She just feels like as the oldest Jessica has to set an example for her younger sisters. She doesn't understand Jessica' obsession with Quidditch, being Muggle and all, so she thinks it's just an extra curricular hobby for her, which is why they fight a lot. She nearly lost it when Jessica came home with pink hair one day. But at the end of the day she just wants to make sure Jessica is safe and secure somehow and fighting with her would ensure the opposite so she's slowly trying to let go of the reigns and trust her more.

Father

Jun Park, 41
Military Vet | Sergeant

Personality: Jun is equal parts strict from having been in the military for so long and also a jokester. He loves his family and would do anything for them. One time someone asked him if he regretted not having sons and he got really offended because he really doesn't care about things like that, he loves the daughters he was given.

Relationship with Sica: Jessica is definitely her father's favorite (though he hides it very well!) She has an incredibly close relationship with him and can come to him for whatever she needs. Whenever she and her mom fight, Jess usually goes to him to get her way and he has to play the mediator between the two of them, getting each other to see the other's point of view. Jess always feels compared to her sisters but her dad reassures her that her path is not supposed to be the same. As long as she is not a drop out or doing drugs, her father assures her she could never be a disappointment to him.

Sister

Sarah Hyuna Park, 14
Beauxbatons Fourth Year

Personality: Sarah is definitely a lucky girl. Things seem to come very easy to her. She thinks trying new things are fun so she likes to try them, it just so happens she's always pretty good at it on the first try. If she doesn't study, she still manages to pass or get excused somehow. She's probably going to be chosen for Prefect next year. Her parents are always proud of her for some new accomplishment.

Relationship with Sica: Jessica feels inferior to Sarah because she thinks her parents want her to be more like Sarah. She thinks Sarah is so much prettier than her in every way, everyone wants to be her friend and be with her. Jessica gets so annoyed by this, but the thing is, Sarah doesn't even notice or care, she just wants to be friends with Jess. She looks up to Jess for being so daring and carefree. They are good friends, but Jess does get prickly very often when something goes wrong for her but right for Sarah.

Sister

Grace Yuri Park, 13
Beauxbatons Third Year

Personality: Grace is extremely intelligent and skilled at magic. When they think back on in, Grace definitely showed signs of magic way earlier in life than any of the other girls. She loves to read and thinks her grades are the most important thing for her.

Relationship with Sica: Jessica's relationship with Grace isn't as prickly as the one with Sarah, but she does get compared a lot to Grace regarding their education. Jess is unfocused and doesn't care about classes and that is all Grace cares about. Sometimes Grace gets on Jessica's nerves because she nags at her a lot, so it's like having her mom with her at school making her feel guilty for her bad grades.

Sister

Hannah SooJin Park, 8
Elementary School

Personality: Hannah is the youngest Park daughter so she is pretty spoiled but not in a materialistic way. She is one of the lucky ones who didn't have to move as much as her other sisters so she feels more grounded at times. She feels a bit of a disconnect and lonely because all of her older sisters are in school so she rarely gets to see them. She hasn't shown much signs of magic yet which is really late in the game so she's worried she won't be a witch like the rest of her sisters which makes her really sad.

Relationship with Sica: Jessica doesn't think too much about Hannah because there's such a big age gap between them. She thinks the little girl is annoying, following them around, but she still cares for her in the way an older sibling would. She feels a little bad that she never gets to see her, especially because by the time she starts school at Beauxbatons (hopefully), Jess will have already graduated (hopefully), but at least she'll still have her other sisters.
