PERSONALITY
Yanya is not your typical teen girl — she’s a tomboy who has her own unique style! In addition to being intelligent, logical, and funny, Yanya is thoughtful and generous, always doing nice things for others…
But she is also socially awkward, clumsy, and doesn’t fit into society’s beauty norms. Because Yanya does not dress, act, or look like her cool and attractive classmates, they label her as an inferior, a weirdo, an outcast.
Due to the endless bullying, Yanya has extremely low self-esteem, and tends to be sarcastic and pessimistic.
She also suffers from severe anxiety, which began when she was a child…
