PERSONALITY » Claire is a passionate girl. She's always up for a new challenege everyday. By facing new challenges she considers herself to be proactive. She is constantly trying to prove to herself that she can do whatever she sets her eyes on and she's always encouraging everyone else around her to do the same. She always tests her own limits. But despite her tough, slightly workaholic attitude, she does have a sense of humor. She often turn to sarcasm but she's very goofy and silly. She loves makes funny faces at the camera, the classic bunny ears behind a person head and once in a while will craft a prank of her own. One of the more obvious things about her is that she's quite emotional, she truly carries her heart on her sleeve. She will say exactly how she feels and tries not to let al of her feelings get bottled or else she risks lashing out at others. She's very kind, helpful to those who seek her help and welcoming to newcomers.

Of course, despite the positive qualities about Claire, she also has some negative qualities. One of them is becoming too engrossed in work , she becomes so focused on practicing and achieveing perfection that she will often forget about her personal relations with other people (like hanging out with friends, spending time with family, bills). Claire also tends to lash out when things get a little too overwhelming. She usually deals with stress very well, but everybody has their breaking point. She is always her own worst critic , others will constantly tell her that she's doing well and not to worry about her future, debut will come soon enough etc. But in order to believe the words of others she needs to "convince herself" that she is indeed doing well in order to not beat herself up about it later.

LOVE INTEREST » Park Jaehyung (Day6)

BACKUP LOVE INTEREST » Bobby (iKon)

PERSONALITY »
Jae is goofball through and through. He's funny and energetic and like Claire is always up for something new. He doesn't really take himself too seriously. He often cracks jokes and makes fun of himself. He often hides his more sensitive and sentimental side. He has feelings for Claire and was shocked at her confession, and tries to reach out to her to tell her that he also feels the same way. He has a hard time dealing with the fact that she's avoiding him (which would be easy for to do since they're in different companies)

LOVE STORY 
Claire has admired him (from a distance since k-pop star) since his appearance on the first season of K-pop Star. They became friends after he joined JYP and met through mutual friend Jaebum (Got7). During the course of a few months, she started finding herself deeply and madly in love. Not knowing how to deal with her feelings, since she was deathly afriad of confessing, she went to a local bar (on her 20th birthday, cuz legal) and downed enough drinks of soju to be insanely drunk. She stumbled over to Jae's dorm and he answered the door. In slurred speach she confessed to him and turned around and left before he had the chance to respond. The next day, she remembered everything and felt so ashamed. She automatically just asumed that he didn't return her feelings. She ignored his bombarding texts and calls asking her to talk about it. She has avoided him eversince and has convinced herself that he doesn't like her back and he wants nothing to do with her. She avoids him at all costs.
