So we won't get a full picture of Minho's personality either.
Nor do we get to see Minho's thoughts like we see Thomas's. too, and these revelations are one reason why I found it easy to relate to and understand him.Īnother thing is that we can only see people from Thomas's perspective, so we never see how Minho is like when Thomas is not around. The dialogue was helpful in revealing Minho's beliefs, reasoning, motivations, etc. This will be subjective, though, as we don't all empathize with the same characters. Some ways of ensuring you have round characters are: 1. So maybe part of my own definition of roundness is whether the reader can empathize with and relate to a character. How to Make Round Characters The main characters almost always need to be round in order for readers to relate to them.
Minho might not have showed as much variation in personality traits as Thomas did, maybe, but I could love and relate to Minho very easily, and thus he feels real to me. The key word when dealing with the difference between static and dynamic characters is change. People have different definitions of what "round" means, but I personally prefer to see round characters as those that feel like real people to you. The main character in a story is almost always round. Well, Minho is my favorite character, so I'll be biased, haha, but I don't feel that he's flat.
