Minho
Height; 6'
Weight; ~175 lbs?
General Appearance; Someday, someone is going to count how many times someone talks about Minho's arms in the series. When first introduced, Minho is immediately described with a thick, heavily muscled Asian kid folded his arms as he studied Thomas, his tight shirtsleeves rolled up to show off his biceps. He's tanned, buff, and tall, showing obvious signs of work outdoors and a constantly active lifestyle (scrapes and bruises, calloused hands, and bandages are also big indicators). His hair is dark and short to keep it off his neck, but obviously styled in the eponymous "duckbutt" in the front. (God knows with what, considering it's the apocalypse.) His eyes are a dark brown, and sickle when he smiles enough, which can often times be difficult to manage but happens far, far more frequently than it does with Thomas.

Other than some moles (most noticeable on his right cheek, but scattered here and there across the rest of him in lesser numbers than Tommy), the most distinguishing marks that Minho has are some really nasty burn scars across his torso (front and back, across his chest/shoulder blades and up his throat/back of his neck); a lichtenberg figure that spans along one arm, his shoulder, and his back; and a tattoo on the back of his neck: PROPERTY OF WICKED. SUBJECT A7: THE LEADER.
Physical Mannerisms; Confident and strong, Minho's movements are relaxed but controlled, his shoulders back and head high. His mannerisms indicate a position of leadership that he's embraced and understand, between having a small group in the Glade and a bigger one outside of it (that was essentially forced on him by the tattoo and everyone around him). It hardly changes when he's running, because he moves like a piston, sure of his every movement like it's literal second nature for him.

When stationary, he has a habit of either crossing his arms or hooking his thumbs in his pockets/belt loops or his Runner's harness. He's casual about it and unless he's trying to look imposing by crossing his arms (because arms), he's pretty chill. Really, Minho is someone that's deliberate with his words until he starts being sarcastic, which you can pick up pretty quickly and catch in grins and smiles.
Verbal Mannerisms; This is in Minho's personality but I'm gonna put it here, too. Ki Hong Lee, his actor for the film series, described his character as thus: Minho's character is very efficient so he doesn't talk much. When he does talk, he means it and he gets straight to the point. He's a bit sarcastic at times.

This is 100% accurate. He's more of a talker than Thomas (and even Newt, a good amount of the time) by leaps and bounds, but like I said he's very deliberate with his words. Much like he moves, he speaks with confidence and intent, when he speaks up. He's also pretty blunt, because he has no time to beat around the bush, and doesn't hesitate to speak his mind the moment that something comes up. Whether he's serious or sarcastic depends entirely on who he's talking to, how he feels about them/the situation, and what's going on at large.

Much like other Gladers, he uses the slang liberally, and if it were our profanity he would be ranked alongside sailors for his mouth.
Fashion; Here we see the outfit that Minho is currently running around in, or at least something incredibly similar to it since he got his ass set on fire/struck by lightning, and really his clothes wouldn't change much if he was given a choice to pick out his wardrobe. (Sure, his current clothes are dirty and worn and probably have blood here and there, but he's used to it-- he lives in a post-apocalypse world, so.) Although throw in a lot of muscle shirts and anything that would show off his arms, because he's totally fine with it. He can clean up pretty well, and he does actually have a fashion sense. The thing here is that it's pretty casual versus anything formal.

So, you know. Donning Drabwurld clothes he wouldn't go for anything all too fancy. Just what wouldn't be uncomfortable when running.
Etc;
