Details: Full name: Giju Gong First name: Giju

Nicknames: Goddess of Contests (Because she always wins the writing/script contests she enters)

Age: 22

Sex: Female

Appearance A beautiful young woman with a black or purple black bob cut. Her hair is short, cut into a neat bob that falls just above her shoulders. It’s a deep brown shade with subtle highlights, and her bangs are slightly parted, framing her eyes in a natural, effortless way. She has a slightly oval face shape with a smooth jawline that narrows subtly toward a small, delicate chin. Her eyes are one of the most striking features—medium to large in size, almond-shaped, and a muted green color. They’re framed by fine lashes and straight, slightly lowered brows, which give her a calm, serious, almost introspective expression. Her nose is small and understated, drawn minimally. She appears slim and lean with a lightly athletic build. Her frame is narrow—especially around the shoulders and waist. She is fit but not muscular. She usually wears chic outfits

Personality Giju is rational, smart, and easy-going. She is usually quick to get or get flustered if someone is flirting with her or if she accidentally does something wrong. Giju isn't prideful or arrogant of her smartness and luck with contests. With people she is friends with, she lets out her more playful side, occasionally joking around and being comfortable around them. She is also prone to fall in love easily. With people she loves (Such as romantic Partners), she is easy-going and a loving partner who wants to support her boyfriend in every way, such as spoiling them with money she wins from contests or even buying sexy lingerie to try out for her boyfriend. Though, Giju isn't hesitant to be cold or take revenge if someone tries to take advantage of her or hurt her or her friends. A flaw in Giju’s character is that when someone does thing for her or when she owes something, she feels inclined to repay the favor/debt tenfold.

Likes: Jokbal(pig's trotters braised for hours in a savory soy-based broth with ginger, garlic, star anise, and rice wine until tender, sticky, and collagen-rich), writing, supporting her boyfriend, little kids (because she always wanted a little sibling), Professor Lim Gwanghyun(Ranked 1st in Script Evalautions. Giju basically worships the ground he stands on)

Dislikes: Mushrooms because of their texture, cheating, lying, people who take advantage of others, creative writing because she sucks at it

Background: she is a 3rd year valedictorian with a playwriter major at the Korean Arts College. During high school, she published a web novel "Held Captive By Mad Love." She would fall in love with anyone who enjoyed her book. She had three ex boyfriends all of which took advantage of her kindness and love. She had caught her latest ex-boyfriend, Jamin An taking advantage of the money she sends him when she looked in his phone. She was furious and tried to confront Jamin. They argued and Jamin slapped Giju. Giju was stunned and went out, but Jamin had pushed Giju down the stairs. After falling from the stairs and injuring her head, she could now see romantic reviews of people she sees.

Giju's Ring It is the main object in Ex Love Review. It allows the user to see a person's past dating relationships and how well they did. It was somehow activated when Giju wished she could see all of the red flags before dating a man she chose when she was falling off the stairs.

It is a simple tacky silver ring with a blue heart gem in the middle.

When worn, it allows the user to see a popup review of everyone that the user is looking at, had dated. It is a review with a simple 0 to 5 stars and the main statement the dated person mostly believed in after they broke up. With everyone the person had dated, it acculamates into a singular score that determines the person's star level. The star level doesn't indicate how well the person's character but their relationship. It is unclear if anyone can wear it.

Background Char: Jamin An, a fourth-year student at the same institution as Giju. He was Giju’s third boyfriend. Jamin looks nice at first sight, but he is a manipulative bastard. Jamin had been known to hit/assualt his previous girlfriends. When he hit Giju, he tried to apologize and try to appease to Giju by saying that it was a accident. Even after pushing Giju off the stairs, he didn't feel much remorse and even poorly apologized afterwards. Jamin broke up with Giju after he finally got a audition at the Theatre he wanted. Jamin also spread rumors of Giju being a toxic and manipulative woman.
