While I was living in the United States, strangers would often stop me on the street and ask if I was a famous model \u2014 some even assumed I already was. At first, I was surprised by the attention, but it got me thinking. Maybe I really should give modeling a try. As it turned out, my father has a friend whose daughter was working as a model with MAG Model Agent Group.

There&#8217;s something incredibly fascinating about the complexity of his character \u2014 a forensic blood spatter expert by day and a vigilante serial killer by night. I love how the show constantly plays with moral boundaries and makes you question what&#8217;s right and wrong. It&#8217;s dark, suspenseful, and surprisingly emotional at times.

Freedom is at the core of the story \u2014 as a Ukrainian, it literally feels like our national motto. It&#8217;s something essential, something we have fought, are fighting, and will continue to fight for \u2014 just like in Attack on Titan. Words can hardly capture my admiration for this work. I&#8217;ve followed the series for nearly a decade, growing alongside the story and its characters. I&#8217;m fascinated by the ideas and themes woven into it, and even watching the anime or reading the manga for the hundredth time still gives me goosebumps. The characters and their struggles continue to inspire me and remind me of the power of perseverance, courage, and staying true to one&#8217;s convictions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What&#8217;s one non-physical thing you&#8217;d like to change about yourself?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf I could change something non-physical about myself, I would improve my memory. I study Japanese philology, and the amount of material I need to absorb every day is enormous. No matter how much time I dedicate to learning, I often forget the readings of kanji. I wish I could retain information more easily so I could progress faster and with less frustration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What&#8217;s the scariest thing you&#8217;ve ever done?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe scariest thing I&#8217;ve ever done was getting lost alone in the mountains. Do I need to mention that I did it unintentionally? Hiking has been something I&#8217;ve loved since I was a kid, and when I started working abroad as a model at 14, it became my way to cope with stress. Back then, I didn&#8217;t have mobile internet because of circumstances, and since there&#8217;s often no signal in the mountains, I always planned my routes in advance, marking everything in a notebook or taking screenshots. When I was 15, I got lost in the mountains in South Korea after an old trail sign led me onto an abandoned path that disappeared. At first, I panicked so badly I burst into tears, because I had always been good with directions. Then I tried to navigate using the cardinal points and headed north, but I ended up at a vertical rock face I couldn&#8217;t climb. It was already getting dark, but eventually I pulled myself together, went around the ridge, and found the long way down. I returned in the dark, exhausted but safe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-6' class='gallery galleryid-74800 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zephyrine Lucan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan02.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-74819\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-74819'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zephyrine Lucan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zephyrine Lucan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-74820\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-74820'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zephyrine Lucan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zephyrine Lucan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/10\/mdcselects_zephyrinelucan01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-74818\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-74818'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zephyrine Lucan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"name-title\">Zephyrine<\/div>\n<div class=\"writeup\">\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nZephyrine Lucan \u2014 American from Los Angeles, California, USA \u2014 born May 13th \u2014 175 cm \/ 5&#8217;9&#8243; \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Photogenics-LA\">Photogenics LA (Los Angeles &#8211; mother agency)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What&#8217;s an essential part of your daily routine?<\/strong><br \/>\nI always like to take time to work on my scripts; it really helps regulate me and de-stress from the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 How did you become a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nI was scouted at the Americana mall in Glendale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are 3 interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy favorite color is pink, my favorite food is noodles, and my favorite animal is the elephant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Havana Who: Havana Oliver-Mighten \u2014 @zonedoutgirl \u2014 Jamaican\/English from Manchester, UK \u2014 born November 9th \u2014 175 cm \/ 5&#8217;9&#8243; \u2014 she\/her.
