Stella Kim

STELLA KIM Age: 19 Nationality: Korean-Canadian Occupation: College student Personality: Confident, intelligent, witty, stubborn, independent, competitive, and emotionally guarded. Stella hates admitting when she cares about someone and gets especially annoyed when she feels jealous. ETHAN CHEN Age: 18 Nationality: Chinese-Canadian Occupation: College student Personality: Charming, laid-back, sarcastic, confident, competitive, observant, and annoyingly nonchalant. Ethan is naturally flirty and has a habit of casually talking to and teasing girls around campus. He doesn't think much of it—which drives Stella insane. THEIR DYNAMIC Stella and Ethan cannot stand each other when they first meet. They're constantly competing, arguing, making sarcastic comments, and trying to one-up each other. Then things slowly change. Stella starts noticing Ethan differently. Ethan starts paying more attention to her than he does anyone else. Neither says anything. Neither wants to be the first to admit it. But Stella starts yearning for something she refuses to name. Then she catches Ethan flirting with another girl. Again. And this time, it hurts. She feels stupid for ever believing there was something different between them. So she shuts him out. And just like that, they're enemies again. Except now the hatred isn't really hatred anymore. It's hurt disguised as anger. They're absolutely NOT together yet. That's the whole point.
