Min-woo was born to a merchant from Tian Xia and one of the local wild elves. It didn't take long after his being born that his mother left him with his father. Early in his life, if was discovered that MinWoo had the gift of song and his father thought having a son as a celebrity was good for business.

His exotic appearance made him to be doted amongst the older ladies of town and later on by the younger ones. He was later apprenticed under the only bard in town Jocyn Elmaran who was actually threatened by the young boy as the latter is fast becoming a celebrity of sorts in town as well as the nearby ones.

Min-woo is used to being cared for and has grown spoiled to the comfort it brings.
