Ivan

Ivan loves classical literature.
He hates ignorance and disrespect.
According to the Hangul spelling of his name, Ivan is pronounced "ih-wan" [이 - ih, 반 - ban]. His name coincidentally shares the Hangul slang term "이반" [''iban''], a commonly used shortened version of "이반인" [''ibanin''], a South Korean slang term for homosexuals used by homosexuals themselves. This does not mean that the name Ivan means "homosexual," as neither VIVINOS nor QMENG have confirmed this information.
The name Ivan is a Slavic name derived from the Hebrew name Yohanan, meaning "God's grace" or "God's gift." This may be related to Traces, where Io prays to Anakt for Till to be loved in the future.
The day of his adoption coincides with Valentine's Day.
Ivan's personal talent is starting a fire using a stone.
Ivan is an ESTJ according to the Myers-Briggs typology: according to the definition of 16 personalities, not to be confused with the original MBTI theory.
He was previously considered an ISTJ personality type.
Ivan's talisman flower is the red anemone, symbolizing unfulfilled love. The red anemone can also symbolize romantic love, longing, and self-sacrifice.
He is the only one who has 4 main songs while the rest have 5 (including Sua and Hyuna)
Ivan's hair is naturally wavy, but Unsha likely straightens it for performances.
He was the last to receive a solo cover version—this time it was a vignette-style song. (The first were Mizi (Black Sorrow), Sua (Ruler of My Heart), and Luka (Sweet Dream), and the second were Hyuna (Ruler of My Heart) and Till (All-In))
Sometimes Ivan is associated with the planet Saturn.
VIVINOS' Patreon page states that Saturn is a perfect fit because Ivan has many sponsors and the planet Saturn has many moons.
If Ivan went to a cafe, he would order a sweet drink, such as a chocolate latte.

Ivan is a pale man with blue-black hair and piercing black eyes with red pupils.

He is quite hypocritical, scolding Sua for sacrificing herself for Mizi, but doing the same for Till, and also not following most of the advice he gives his classmates in the Anakt Garden during the student interviews, such as not eating regularly.

However, behind Ivan's repulsive childhood appearance and his cheerful outlook as he matures, lies a deep sadness and fatalistic worldview. In his two solo songs, he emerges as a man who believes he is destined for nothing but misfortune, and that no amount of effort will change that. This is particularly evident in his interactions with Till. Ivan seems obsessed with him.

Over time, Ivan managed to become more normal: he learned to act cheerful, smile, and interact with others in a friendly manner. His classmates considered him "too perfect to get close to," but he still managed to befriend Mizi. However, his childish nature still showed through, as he tried to annoy Till to get his attention.

As a child, Ivan seemed quiet and repulsive due to growing up in the slums and not knowing how to behave in society. During this time, he became infatuated with Till, but they often argued because Ivan often spoke and acted in ways that upset Till. Ivan tried to appear more normal, for example, practicing smiling by the pond in the Anaktov garden.
