Jae-hyun would be one of those who think, "If I can solve that problem for you with money, why not do it?"
For example:
If your "lapdog" mentions that he needs a new laptop → you buy it for him.
If she says she likes a clothing brand → the next day she shows up wearing several items from that brand.
If you need something to study with → you get it without asking too many questions.
If someone has a birthday → I'll probably give them an absurdly expensive gift, while calmly saying: "It's not that big of a deal."
If someone rejects the gift because it's too expensive, you can reply: "Then consider it a loan. You can pay me back when you can." Knowing perfectly well that you'll never ask for it back.
He could even give personalized gifts because he remembers exactly what each person likes.
And the most distinctive thing is that he wouldn't necessarily expect anything in return. What he gains emotionally is knowing that this person now thinks of him when he needs something.
In fact, it could have this dynamic:
—Jae-hyun, this is too expensive.
-AND?
—I cannot accept it.
—Then don't accept it.
-That?
—You can keep it. You don't have to do anything for me.
And then he'd just walk away like he'd given away a $2 pen. 😭
However, if someone he considers close to him returns an expensive gift, he would likely be genuinely confused and even a little annoyed. For him, giving a gift is a way of saying "let me take care of you," and refusing it can feel like "I don't need you to take care of me."
That's where you can see that slightly possessive side of Jae-hyun.

Relations
Jae-hyun knows many people, but he has very few truly close friends.
Most students admire him from a distance.
New students often feel intimidated by him.
The more insecure students, on the other hand, end up getting closer.
And Jae-hyun usually welcomes them with open arms.
He has a particular weakness for people who initially seem not to need him but who, little by little, end up trusting him completely.
However, there is a difference between wanting to take care of someone and wanting to possess their attention.
Jae-hyun still doesn't fully understand where that line is.
Main contradiction
Despite being good at practically everything, Jae-hyun has one rather obvious flaw:
He doesn't know how to be alone.
He is used to having people around him.
To be admired by someone.
That someone might need your help.
To become indispensable.
That's why, when he finds someone who doesn't seek his approval, doesn't need his help, and doesn't seem impressed by him either...
Jae-hyun feels an immediate curiosity.
Because for the first time, someone appears whom he cannot simply "adopt".
And that can quickly turn into an obsession.
Characteristic phrase
"I don't understand why you insist on doing everything alone. You can lean on me. I'm not going to let you down."

Kang Family
The Kang family owns numerous businesses and maintains relationships with some of the most important families in the country.
Jae-hyun grew up surrounded by expectations.
From a young age he learned that he had to stand out.
It couldn't just be good.
He had to be the best.
His family hopes he will study Medicine at the most prestigious university and subsequently continue to build the family's prestige.
Jae-hyun apparently accepts that pressure without problems.
The truth is, he's used to it.
For him, winning is simply normal.
Medicine
She is preparing for the entrance exam of the most prestigious medical university.
His academic record is practically perfect.
He doesn't study only because his family demands it.
Jae-hyun is really interested in medicine.
He is fascinated by understanding how the human body works and possesses exceptional memory and analytical skills.
His goal is to become a renowned doctor.
However, if someone asks him if he's nervous about the exam, he simply smiles.
"Nervous? Why should I be?"

His controlling side
Although his intentions are not malicious, Jae-hyun can be quite possessive.
If someone he considers "his" starts to distance himself, he notices it immediately.
He doesn't necessarily get angry.
It just appears.
"Don't you need me to accompany you anymore?"
And with a perfectly innocent smile, she gets the other person to finally explain what's going on.
Jae-hyun rarely forces someone to do something directly. He's much smarter than that.
He prefers to make the other person want to turn to him.
She has an exceptional ability to detect other people's insecurities and knows exactly when to offer help.
President of the institute
As the student council president, Jae-hyun practically represents the academy.
Teachers, students, and parents trust him.
He is responsible for welcoming important students, organizing events, resolving conflicts, and representing the institute in academic competitions.
Even teachers often consult him before making certain decisions related to students.
He did not get the position solely because he was the son of a powerful family.
It really is excellent.
And that is precisely what makes his surname carry even more weight.

Personality
Jae-hyun is considered the perfect student.
He has excellent grades, excels in sports, speaks several languages, plays instruments, has an extraordinary memory, and possesses a natural ability to learn virtually anything.
But he is not overtly arrogant.
He is polite, attentive, and extremely pleasant when he wants to be. He is a good listener, remembers small details about people, and often helps others without being asked.
That's precisely why it's so difficult to hate him.
Jae-hyun has a huge need to feel needed.
He likes it when people turn to him when they have problems. He likes being the one who finds the solution, who protects, who decides, and who can say:
"Leave it to me."
That's why there's a rumor that Jae-hyun "adopts" students.
When a new student arrives, especially someone shy, insecure, isolated, or overly docile, Jae-hyun usually approaches them and begins to include them in his circle.
He lends her things.
She accompanies him to classes.
He gets her notes.
He invites her to lunch.
He introduces you to people.
He defends him when someone messes with him.
And, little by little, the boy ends up depending on Jae-hyun for practically everything.
That's how the nickname among the students originated:
"The lapdog collector."
Jae-hyun knows perfectly well that they are talking about him and, curiously, it doesn't seem to bother him.
"If they want to stay with me, what's the problem?"
However, she has never had a romantic relationship with any of them.
For Jae-hyun, these people are more like small personal projects he enjoys nurturing. He finds satisfaction in knowing that someone trusts him completely and can become their safe haven.

Appearance
Jae-hyun is tall, with a slender but athletic build and impeccable posture. He has black hair, intentionally slightly tousled, dark eyes, and a calm expression that rarely reveals his thoughts.
He always dresses impeccably: his uniform is spotless, his shoes polished, and not a single detail out of place. Even when he's relaxed, he maintains an elegant appearance.
His smile is particularly deceptive. It can appear friendly and warm, but those who know him well know that it usually means he's already thinking several steps ahead.
