name :: Ahn Jinhye
nicknames ::
• Belle
Her mother calls her so. It was french for 'beauty' and also the name she used for her early modelling day.

Joonyoung calls her so. He thinks that Jinhye is hard to pronounce so he goes for Jini.
• Jini
Her brothers call her so. They said that it sounds like 'genie', just how she is like a genie for them.
age :: 22 on November (Internationally)
birthdate :: November 16th 1993
birthplace :: Seoul, South Korea
hometown :: Seoul, South Korea
ethicity :: Korean
nationality :: Korean
languages ::

• Korean || Fluent
Well. It is her mother-language after all.
• French || Basic
Her mother is a graduate from a fashion-school in France, and she had been there once for few months for her mother's fashion show. So she told her a bit of french like asking for directions, etc. Enough for her to not get lost. But she never used it again after that.
• English || semi-fluent
For her parents, international language is everything. She is enrolled to an after school-academy to learn english since elementary. But she never actually placed her foot on an english-speaking country, that's why i won't say that she is advanced or fluent despite the period of her learning the language. She can understand subtittles in movie well, but a bit troubled when it comes to responding to a dialogue spontanously.

face-claim :: Park Hyemin / Pony
back-up face-claim :: Eom Yoon Min / May
height :: 170cm
weight :: 52kg
style ::
She is all about the make-up, she thinks that all of her confidence are gone if she doesn't use any. Her favorite feautre is her long-legs, and she likes to emphasize it. So she is either using skinny jeans, shorts, or anything that could make her long legs stand out. On the other hand, she hates sleeveless outfits due to her board shoulder. If she wears tank-top or any sleeveless outfits, she will cover her shoulder with shirt or jacket. She likes oversized t-shirt more than dresses---as she thinks that it would hide her curve a bit. She loves to die her hair in various colour, but she prefers to use wig and actually hate it when she got a two-tones hair like red velvet. She loves colored contact lense.

appearance :
Despite standing in 170cm tall, her proportions are not the best one. She got a long legs, but it was also surpported with a board shoulder and big bones that she despise the most---as she thinks that it will make her look huge. She got her jaw and nose done, but the aftereffect of the surgery disappear already. She was a bit curvy, and she also hates it since it is a bit of disadvantage as a model (from her point of view, model should be flat chested so clothes can fit in easily---like KARA Hara's body.)

personality ::

(+) confident, sociable, smooth-talker
(neutral) perfectionist, good-listener
(-) dependent, hot-headed, fake

From outside, Jinhye seemed cold and distant, as she rarely showed any expression. But she is far from that. Despite her smooth-talking personality, she might be a bit quiet, but will definitely be the one who approach you in new environtment. She would use her ability to make people lure her in and end up doing what she wants for her own benefits. She prefers act than talk, since she thinks that talking won't do any good to your job unless you're trying to bargain someone to do as you please (for example, her brothers.) Being the only daughter in the family, moreover the last one with three brothers that have six-years gap with her, she is very dependent and lack of responsibility. Her brothers spoils her a lot, as they treat her like their princess, so no wonder that she depends on her brothers on many aspects. Her brothers often cover her up if she does some mistakes, that's why she is lack of responsibility on what she did, because her brother will take the blame, most of the times. They also would let her win in every arguent, which make her becomes slightly egoistic and presistent on what she wants until she actually gets it. But despite the minus traits, she is actually an efficient worker. She works as fast as she could with the best result, even though she tends to get help from her brother. Truthfully, she was a bit wise when it comes to making a decision, but she easily gets influenced with her brothers and that makes her a bit plin-plan to stand on her own decisions.

She is the girl that will approach you first in the new environtment, and adapt really fast in unfamiliar place. She is also the ytype of confident girls that will raise her hand as high as she could when the teacher asked on who wants to be the lead-role on school's play, She finds it easy to make friend, as she thinks that it is not that hard to lure people in with her first impressions. However, she thinks that it is very hard to keep a friend to not betraying you, since so many things could go wrong if you get too close with someone. She can make you feel comfortable and accepted easily in a new environtment, so many people lure her in immediately and let her become one of their friends. She is a good listeners, the one you would look for first when you need someone to hear you out. But even so, she is not the best when it comes to finsing solution since the most that she can do is comforting and cheering you up. She is a good friend and moodmaker in group, the one who will crack an amusing jokes, laugh at the lamest jokes, and even find Horror Movies laughable.

However, she is a hot-headed girl. means she get pissed off easily. But since she does not really show expression, it wis hard to tell whether she pissed off or not, unless she is throwing tantrum. She can get mad at the simplest thing, for example if you wear clothes with similar style as she does, she will call you a copycat and stop talking to you. Or if you double-dipped to her foods, she would just launch a sarcastic remark and hide all of her food supplies instead of being angry at your face. She mostly pissed off if someone tries to be on her way when she tries to achieve her goals, or when she tries so hard but still fails to please herself. She is a perfectionist, it is hard to please her or to meet her standard. For her, it is between being perfect, or just not at all. Since she is the one who is persistent and will make her way to get what she wants, some people call her fake. And even herelf admit it that she is sometimes being fake, as se thinks that people need to have at least two faces to be accepted in the society and fulfil their standard. It is really hard to deterine whether she really likes you or she is just being nice because of manner. Or whether what she said was genuinely true, or she just stuffed you with beautiful lie to make you give in and do what she wants.

F A M I L Y & F R I E ND S

background ::
Jinhye was born in a complete and middle-upper class family. Her mother is a fashion designer with a famous clothing-line, Fantasia, and her father is one of the coaches for nationa's soccer team. Her brothers are triplets, and they are 6 years older than her. Jaehyun is a bsiness accountant, Daehyun is a medical-student and Taehyun is a fencing-athlete. She was born premature, around seven months. Her big-family from the mother's side have a gallery in Seoul, in which it was where she spent most of her early days, by learning how to paint and how to hold a camera. She also learn piano for a year, before giving up and started to learn guitar from Jaehyun who originally wanted to be a session-guitarist.

Being the only daughter with a fashion-designer brand, Jinhye was like a blank canvas for her mother. She often dolled her up with various clothes and then uploaded her online as 'Belle' which was French for Beautiful. She knew modelling world since kid, as she introduced by her mothers. She started to do photoshoot and runaway for the childwear of Fantasia (in which she did it with her brothers sometimes), Even though she finds modelling-world appealing, But as the time goes, puberty did not do anything good for her. She stopped growing any taller than 170, which was a bit too short for a model, and her proportions were too curvy to be a runaway model that requires to be flat so they can fit in easily. That's why being a professional runaway model was never an option for her. But her mother did not give up, she keeps her as the face of her brands, making her do a photshoot for her brands and with her beauty and photogenic face, she is known as the face of Fantasia and also one of the most famous ulzzang on internet. She even made it for an ulzzang show in 2011.

During her teenager days, her parents were at the peak of their busy days. Her mother and Fantasia were on roll, and her dad was busy with the preparation of World-Cup. And instead of modelling, singing and make-up caught her attention more. As she gradated from high-school, she decided to enroll herself to a beauty-schol to learn make-up artists and get her sertificate. Way before that, during high-school, she formed a band with her schoolmates, along with The Ark's Minjoo (not really happen) named Fleur, where all the members are in charge of an instrument and vocals, and she plays guitar. They often went for some busking event on the street, and it was when she dropped the B on her modelling-name and hcange it to Elle, which means women. That represents herself as a grown-up musician and sometimes ulzzang. The pubblic that often wat ched her knew her that way. Her mother was actually okay with it as she said that she wanted to be more mature and get rid of the kid's vibe, which her mother responded with changing all the tags of her to Elle. However, her parents were oblivious on her daughter doing many busking event, they just knew that she got a band. Jaehyun, on the other hand, knew that his sister fully wanted to be a musician anf support her to be one, as he thought that she was trying to fulfiling his failed dream to be a session-guitarst as she broke two of her fingers. Same goesto Daehyun. But Taehyun was a bit disagree with it as he thought that being a musician was not a good option, he supported her more in gymnastics field.

In early 2012, Fleur auditioned for a talent-scouting show, KPOP STAR 2. It was when her paretns realized that their only daughter was serious on getting into music-scene. At first, they forbid her, they even persuade her a ticket fto Paris for a make-up school, which she declined. She loved to be a face of her mother's brand, and she likes make-up, but music was something she wanted to do whole. Her brothers (except for Taehyun) being on her side was no help as her parents gave er their blessing and allow her to do auditions. But Fleur never made it. From the first audition, it was only Minjoo, JInhye, and their keyboard-ist, Shinyoung, that made it. And it was not long until she and Shinyoung were also sent home and left Minjoo who was placed in a group called YouU. But being eliminated, she did not give up. Her parents were once again tried to persuade her to change her directions, but she declined as she proved herself by getting accepted to Nega Network in early 2013. However, as the mother who thought that her daughter was the only one that fit in to be the face of her brand, she negotiate the contract with the agency to keep her being the face of Fantasia.

L O V E

love interest name :: Jung Joonyoung
age :: 27
group :: soloist
personality ::
Joonyoung is someone that would be oblivious with his surround, but he is actually very caring. Despite her bad boys image, he is actually just like a kid--exept the fact that he smokes. He was four years older than Jinhye, so of course that would make her more mature than her. He was the one that would just reply Jinhye with a sarcastic remark if she made her pissed off. The one who was not a fan of romantic, that would compose a special song ofr his oved one. He is not the fan of PDAs, but would never let her girlfirend's hands left his the moment they are alone. He is always aware with how Jinhye feeling, and always make sure that she feels comfortable aroun her, like for axample, making sure that he changes his clothes before meeting her and clean the studio so she won't smell the smokes.

how you met ::
Actually, they knew each other way before they officially met. Jinhye always been the one who adore Joonyoung musically since he release first EP, Rock Trip, in 2010. She was also a fan of his band, Switchon. On the other hand, Joonyoung often saw Fleur busking on Hongdae's street and find them charming--well, actually, she find Shinyeong was. They officially met in 2011 during an Ulzzang-Shidae TV-Show which Joonyoung recognized Jinhye as one member of Fleur. Turn out they had same interests toward music and became friend after the show ends. He tried to ask Jinhye for Shinyeong's phone, and Jinhye tried to play cupid for both of them but it was backfired since it turned out that Shinyeong end up dating a bassist from one of their school's band. Jinhye was being a good friend by staying wiith him to go through the heart-break but in the end, around early 2012, both ended up dating.

Both have separate ways in music, Jinhye decided to auditioned with Fleur in KPOPSTAR2 while Joonyoung decided to go with SUPERSTARK4 as soloist. They dated during the competition (in which Jinhye failed) and she was one of his strength until he got 3rd place on the show. But things went downhill after that. Jealousy and ego ate both of them, and they kept on being in on and off relationship, even his debut EP, sense of ending, was actually about Jinhye. They dated for few moments until Joonyoung confirmed to be in a virtual marriage show with actress Jung Yoomi.

A year were unexpectedly a long time, and both still could not forget each other's presence. Jinhye had been working hard as a trainee, and Joonyoung had been dating several women secretly but as dramatic as it sounds, he couldn't help but thinking about the four-years younger girls that kept coming to his mind. They met several times for various occation, but only some formal greetings exchanged. The first name that came to his name was Shinyeong. Through Shinyeong, both managed to meet in a backstage of music show. Jinhye was visiting Minjoo along with Shinyeong that times, and Joonyoung just had is comeback stage with JJY Band. Both started awkward, but he managed to get in contact even though they just texted each other every few weeks to asked 'How Are You'. However, it was clear for an outsider that Joonyoung wanted to get back together, now that they both more matured as the time goes.

how you act around each other ::
It was not a teenager's romanctic love story that everyone dreamed of, far from that. Both of them were actually a carefree type when it comes to dating. Jinhye really hated it to be disturbed when she works and same goes to Joonyoung so it is normal for them to not contact each other for few days. They dated with Joonyoung was on a competition, so meeting time was a pretty much rare chance for both of them. But once he does, they would be talking non-stop about how their life's going, some random things, and etc. Joonyoung became definitely more talkative when Jinhye was around. Their favorite place to date was Joonyoung's studio, when Jinhye would just sat there, leaning on his shoulder, as they listening to their favorite loev song. Joonyoung was not a romantic type, but she would occasionally sent Jinhye some songs to express his feelings.

back-up love interest name :: McKay Kim
age :: 23
group :: Soloist
personality ::
He is the total opposite of Jinhye. McKay was rather shy and quiet. He does not talk much, especially in new environment, ostly a passive-talker and a social awkward. He is a total guitar boy, as he always carry one and loves to play it, especially in front of his loved ones. He cares about his srrounding a lot, and he is the one that can sense whether Jinhye is pissed off or not. But even so, at times, he can be very childish, even more than Jinhye. He also gets jealous easily. Mckay is as perfectionisht as Jinhye, but he can easily feel down, so Jinhye is the one who cheer him up. But even so, he is better at handling his temper, and way more patient than Jinhye.

how you met ::
They both meet in the waiting room of KPOPSTAR2 audition when their number was just few numbers apart. His Krean was still not good at that time, but knowing Jinhye, she was just approached him confidently with her limited english knowledge. At first, it was an awkward meeting, but they could match well as they listened to same kind of music and both were guitarist. They both exchanged contact after it and turned out that they both passed the audition. But when Jinhye was eliminated, McKay passed to the next round.

how you act around each other ::"
Since Jinhye was one of his first friend in Korea, they are mostly like any noral friends in the world. Both of them enjoy the same things, so they clicked well. At first, it was clear that McKay was hitting on Jinhye and it wa still the same after few years, just not as oblivious as before. He would constantly call her every two or three days just to talk about random things like the new release-song even though he is not really one to initiate a confersation. He is a year older than Jinhye, so he is like her any other brother, even though she tells her problem to him more than she tells her brothers so since they are only a year apart. McKay often meet up with Jinhye just accompany her to watch som english movie with her and point out some unfamiliar vocabs. They are mostly commincate with song lyrics as they both like to send VN of themselves singing and playing random song with guitar, just one or two sentences, and sometimes it is theyr own song that they send to each other. Jinhye was the first one after his family he told about his debut, and hse was also the one that calm him down after his elimination from KPOPSTAR2. But even after all these years, McKay got friend-zoned by her.

trainee life ::
She came to the company in early 2013, and was the only female-trainee that bad in dancing. Her basic was guitar and vocals. At first ,she was planned to debut in a band. But after facing the truth that female band doesn't seem to appealing for public, Nega Network cancel their plan and pushed her to learn how to dance instead. She is struggled with it, of course, as she was bad in remembering moves. However, her past days with gymnastics helped her a lot as she rarely got riticized for being to stiff or etc. She was a trainee that got the other jealous often, as she was a face of a brand when she just a mere trainee. So many of them approached her just ofr their own benefits. But being Jinhye, she knew it all and turned it as her own benefits by asking various tips from those who were more superior than her. When MNet announced the project, at first Nega Network wouldn't pick her, but they ended up picking her as she was already famous as an ulzzang and it would help the company to get their names and possibly use her to promote their boygrous in the future.
