4 role s

JuneFemale18-20 y.o.Asian

Korean. A passive, timid and observant girl. a top player at her high school table tennis team, she harbours a talent for the sport but never feels a huge 'passion' for it. she instead plays almost out of obligation to herself and her talents. with a semi-absent father, the only sense of purpose she feels is on the court to her and herself alone but when transfer student, riley steals this away from her, the bubbling insecurities and fears within her rise to the surface culminating in violence.

RileyFemale18-20 y.o.All ethnicities

June's 'rival'. the new transfer student in town who has an immense talent for table tennis. she is completely innocent and lives her own life, she has zero idea about how much she is affecting june and her playing at no one's fault. some might consider her a 'natural gift', even though she believes there isn't much of a future in table tennis but continues playing anyway. this belief will cause a ripple effect in the 'rivalry' between June and Riley. a rivalry that only exists to June.

Woo-sukMale40-50 y.o.Asian

Korean. June's semi-absent, unintentionally cold father. His wife left him and june when june was very young and that has left a scar in his heart. instead of properly trying to rebuild his family and relationship with June, he's turned elsewhere, looking for that acceptance from somewhere else. He finds it in another family, a young mother and her daughter.

Coach StanMale40-50 y.o.All ethnicities

A super passionate man, he loves table tennis and takes it very seriously (but never in a creepy way). He's not a live or die kind of guy but he cares... maybe a bit too much. He believes he's coaching the next olympic team when in reality it's just a bunch of high school girls most of which are probably doing it just as an extracurricular. But at least he has (or had) June who can keep his vision alive.. that's until riley transfers.
