Which is correct?

#1. The more she'll get hurt, the more indifferent person she'll become.
#2. The more she'll get hurt, the more indifferent of person she'll become.

I thought #1 is grammatically more correct, but some of my friends said #2 sounds more natural.

I appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Neither one of them, and i can't believe that either was written by a native speaker--at least not by a decently educated native speaker. The verb tenses are goofy.

The more she gets hurt, the more of an indifferent person she'll become.

@ujeongkim,
or "The more she's hurt the more indifferent she becomes"
Presumably she's a person

Yes I know, Kim, we were asked merely if the English was "correct," and I'm embellishing

@Thomas33,
No it's not. Is English your native language? Have you been well-educated?
