Background:
HyunAe grew up in Seoul, South Korea. Her parents always wanted a daughter so they could spoil her and treat her like a princess: and that's exactly what they did. When she was a baby in her early months, her mother always held her close to her, making close human contact. Where ever they went, the made sure to bring HyunAe along, usually cuddling her against their chest while she was in her baby wrap. When she because a tween, she went through a tomboy stage. She hung around a lot of guys and liked to play outside in the grass and dirt and play sports with the other boys. Her mother tried to restrain herself from telling HyunAe to act like a girl. She let HyunAe run through her tomboy stage naturally and let her have good, dirty fun. HyunAe's parents were scolded and nagged as children and that's what they did to her. No matter how much authority they had over her, she couldn't stand being yelled out and would not listen to them. They learned they had to use a softer approach give HyunAe a reason for why she should or shouldn't do something. HyunAe always wanted respect and she would return it if she got it. If her parents tried to treat her like a baby, she wouldn't listen to them either. She tried to get them to understand that she didn't want to be treated like a child and she wanted respect. The only thing her parents learned were when nagging her, they would have to do it in a calm and rational voice. Whenever her parents admitted to their mistakes, she thought it showed responsibility on their part and it taught her nobody is perfect. This is the only reason why she isn't a perfectionist today. In her preteen years, she didn't like to follow customs and traditions. She wouldn't decorate the Christmas tree with her mom or wear a hanbok on Chuseok. Her parent's were annoyed by this but they tried to hide it. Instead they tried to tell her with reason of why she should celebrate the traditions in an appropriate manner. She still didn't understand why she should follow the traditions until she was a teenager, around the age of fifteen. When she was a teenager, her father tried to teach her the value of a dollar. All his lessons went in one ear and out the other. She still went out and spent all her allowance and would return to her father to ask for more. Her parents always pushed her about pursuing something that really interested her.
HyunAe was always a person who valued her friends a little more than her family. From when she was a preteen, she couldn't wait to leave the nest and venture life on her own. She wanted to let go of the family ties and have her independence and freedom. There were some times when her mom yelled out her and it angered HyunAe. She went over to a friend's house and spent a couple of days there without telling her parents. As soon as she turned eighteen, she found a one bedroom apartment in the middle of Seoul; she packed her things, said her goodbyes, and moved into that apartment. She doesn't usually call her parents, so when she called them for the first time after a month and some weeks, they thought she forgot about them or something. She tried to explain to them that she was just busy with her friends. At that moment, HyunAe's relationship between her parents shifted a little. While her parents thought they were as close as two peas in a pod, she wanted to go out on her own. Especially her mom, who shared the most skinship with her as a baby and tried hard to understand her personality, she felt the most distant with her daughter. Once again, she tried to understand her daughter's want of freedom. HyunAe thought her mother did understand her so she continued to move on with life while her mom longed to be with her. Her dad wasn't as affected, he understood and moved on with his life too. The times when HyunAe does visit them, her mother tries to make the stay last as long as possible.

When she's put under stress, she becomes filled with negative thoughts.

She does this so the stress won't affect her as much and will get over the problem, even if the explanation doesn't involve the nature of the issue. She's a bit flirtatious with men and most of the time she doesn't try to be subtle.
When she sees a guy she thinks is cute, she'll easily approach him and start conversation. Other than exchanging ages, birthdays, and mHyunAetal statuses, she'll ask about their income.

She's classified as a little flirt and her charms are her wit and her innocent presence - even though there really isn't anything innocent about her.

She enjoys being in relationships and marriage always finds it's way into her mind. She wants to meet that one committed partner who will be hers forever. But she absolutely hates it when a man tries to treat her like his 'baby'. She doesn't like to be controlled and possessed and she definitely won't let a man try to confine her.

Rival: Nicole - Kara | She thinks Nicole is too pretty for her own good. She's not jealous and she doesn't even care that Nicole is considered one of the prettiest idols, but she thinks that Nicole is narcissistic about it. HyunAe already thinks Goo Hara tries to hard to be y and she is in the same band which makes matter worse. Overall, she thinks Kara is one of those groups that tries to hard and are stuck-up, but it seems like she's the only one who thinks so. She understands that if you have beauty you should flaunt it and enjoy it because that's what she does, but she thinks Nicole is just plain egocentric. She just really wants to confront Nicole when she gets the chance and say to her face that being vainglorious won't make her any more pretty and enjoyable.
