4kaalban is a being. It is a human being, a person. One thing he can say for certain is that becoming a writer is his dream.

6I lurk these forums as a mere observer, but I may participate in some of them. Still, you won't see much of me these days. Perhaps later.

131[[folder: Tropes that are connected to me]]
132* {{Adorkable}}: Got this reaction from other people.
133* AntiNihilist: Probably closest way to describe my philosophy. I still try to do no harm, despite knowing that it might be pointless.
134* AsianAndNerdy: No need for explanation.
135* TheCynic: I generally believe that humanity is capable of countless atrocities. And I think that humanity will kill itself eventually. Also, my thoughts... are disturbing, to say the least.
136* HeroicSelfDeprecation: What people tell me I am. Though I would like the 'heroic' part to be taken out.
137* LiteralMinded: It died out a bit, but there are still traces of it.
138* NoSocialSkills: Definitely.
139* WorryingForTheWrongReason: I worry too much about unnecessary things. Mostly about mistakes I might make.
140* YuriFan: I'll admit. I like Yuri. I am even considering making my dark fantasy series Yuri, but I'm not so sure.

143[[folder: Tropes that I love/dislike]]
144
145!Tropes I love:
146* AmbiguousDisorder: Not me. I use this trope frequently with my characters.
147* {{Anti Hero}}/{{Anti Villain}}: However, I can appreciate standard heroes and villains.
148* BattleCouple: It's both sweet and awesome.
149* BecomingTheMask: Both good and bad situations.
150* DarkerAndEdgier: Of course when it's done well. Also, I find myself incapable of writing completely lighthearted works (even ''Culture'' is not a straightforward comedy).
151* DysfunctionJunction: Favorite trope.
152** CastFullOfCrazy: ...Especially if it reaches this level.
153* HurtingHero: Best kinds.
154* MoralityKitchenSink: Even GreyAndGrayMorality is boring to me. Throw in everything for spices and fun.
155* NightmareFuel: Love creating these in my books.
156
157!Tropes that I dislike:
158
159Except for {{Bad Writing Index}} tropes, I don't really have tropes that I hate with passion (not really). There are, however, that will entice this reaction from me: "Ugh... Really?"
160
161* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: This is the one that I detest the most.
162* DoubleStandard: Another thing I detest. Especially regarding rape.
163* KarmaHoudini: ...Need I explain more?
164* MedievalEuropeanFantasy: I don't particularly mind it (and some fantasy works that I like are this), but there are just too many of this.
165* PowerOfFriendship/PowerOfLove: Probably because I don't believe in it.
166* PowerWalk: I...don't really like it. There are exceptions to this, though.
167

171[[folder: Trivias]]
172* I won't disclose any details, but know that I now have around a whopping 32 stories and universes in mind, all of them being in different genres. Hopefully, when they come out, you'll find them fun and interesting.
173* Some of my characters from my superhero series are being used in one of RPs I participate (with some changes and adjustments, of course).
174* Great interests of mine are history, psychology and sociology.
175* I'm a native South Korean.
