What is one word that describes you?

I call myself elegant. That’s why my pen name is Ooahan JS.
Elegance, in English, is “elegance.” But I deliberately use the Korean word “우아하다” (Ooahada).
There is a play on words here—“우아” (Ooaha) and “우와” (Woowa) sound alike.
I am graceful, yet I constantly surprise people.

People call me a Fairy Pitta or an onion with endless layers.
They say I always reveal something new, something unexpected.
I never liked that. So I tried to hide it.
But perhaps, no matter how much I conceal it, my charm refuses to stay hidden.
The more people get to know me, the more they are overwhelmed by what lies beneath.

But I love solitude.
I find peace in being alone, where I can truly be myself.
And so, even now, I choose to remain hidden.
