BACKSTORY

• Grew up a dirt poor only child. Always had an affinity for dancing, and would practice as a small child until his already flimsy sneakers fell apart.
• Taeho’s mother always supported his passion for dancing, but his father called it a “damn waste”, and cursed Taeho for using his legs for anything else but working.
• His father would regularly come back to their dingy basement-level home after a long day of physical labor drunk and angry. Regularly beat Taeho and his mother, who took the brunt of the attacks. She began to take twice the beating after Taeho’s father tried to break his legs. Taeho was either forced to hide or watch–both which fill him with immeasurable guilt to this day.
• The abuse ended abruptly one day–his father was crushed by a beam during a construction accident. At 15, Taeho and his mother were shoved 50 million won as hush money. Taeho pushed his mom into moving to Seoul to get away from the bad memories.
• Lived in a nice apartment with his mother while she used the money to support his dance hobby. Navigated his teen years plagued with trauma from his father and practicing temperance. Still flinches if someone moves too quick near him.
• Debuted in APEX under Elevate Entertainment at 19, and achieved world success by 23. Taeho is massively known by fans for being one of the greatest dancers in k-pop history.

CONNECTIONS

• Jang Dasom (Taeho’s Mother, 63): He loves her with all his heart, and is extremely protective of her. However, he carries some animosity for her. Dasom is very kind, and always preaches to Taeho that he should forgive his father, and that he was not entirely a bad man. She often compares Taeho to his father both in looks and temperament, and on bad days, this sends Taeho spiraling. He doesn’t understand how she can defend that man.
• Jang Siwoo (Taeho’s Father, Deceased): Taeho hates him, but feels disgustingly guilty doing so. His father used to be kind when Taeho before very young, and sometimes Taeho falls into a spiral about the fact that they took his blood money (settlement money) instead of advocating for justice. His death is both a relief and a trauma for Taeho. At one point, his father was kind, and then at some point, he wasn’t.
