EXTRAS.Joana's dark brown hair is worn short and all so often quite messy, especially when it's her day off, but overall it suits her well. She has round doe eyes that goes with her chocolate brown eye color, giving her an innocent look. Her freckles decorating her cheeks and nose. A slender figure, graceful and fluid, much like a wisp or a pillar of smoke sifting through the crowd with an almost ethereal presence. Though, she looks slightly build from gaining some muscles, because of all the training.

   (+) vigorous, spirited, studious, compassionate
   (=) intense, neutral, ambitious
   (- ) evasive, contrary, sneaky, careless
 
ELABORATION. First of all Joana is a vigorous and spirited person. She is quite the ball of energy to be around and doesn't seems to be able to stop or even pause when she's on a roll. So when people are really set on their personal space, they're gonna have quite some challenge there, to keep her from throwing in for some skinship. Whenever she talks, for most of the time, it isn't even 100% crap, in fact Joana is studious and enjoys learning new things, no matter how weird. Ask her whatever you like and she probably knows even the weirdest facts about that subject, as she has probably read it somewhere.  Though she can be a pain in the , she cares for the other trainees she's competing with and is compassionate when some gets injured, embarrassed or eliminated. Often showing it through her rambling, lack of personal space or when they really give hints of not wanting  either of those she'll do her best to sit still and just listen. Not guaranteeing it will last long, but long enough or she will probably just leave the room to give some kind of space. Since there are some things that need to be figured out on their own. 

She can be quite intense and come over with a lot of force, especially if it's about her passion, something she is serious about or as simple as the way she approaches a person. To be clear she doesn't always mean harm by this behavior and mostly doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong with being curious or (overly) excited. It often results in an immediate opinion people have about her when meeting Joana for the first time. It can be both a good as a bad thing, depending on the person of course. It's just a question of getting used to it. Joana tries to say as neutral as possible when it comes to picking sides and would rather stay out of it, letting others deal with instead of involving her into the whole mess. If it's not an option she'll most likely listen to both sides before making a final decision. This girl is highly ambitious if she sets her mind to it, giving it all she's got.

Even though she is a spirited and open-minded person, Joana has her own problems she has to face by herself, which in her case is her fear of commitment (relationships) and confronting problems that get too personal. She'll respond in a indirect way when feeling that things are getting too serious or if she feels that others are snooping around things she doesn't have dealt with herself. Best to be described as evasive. There is something that especially a few of the trainees won't like and that is, Joana's contrary behavior of doing the opposite of what they're saying, not to mock them, it's more of a "I will handle it in my own way, thank you very much" kind of attitude. Because of that it isn't the first time some will view her as careless at times and sneaky to some extent.

BACKGROUND. Joana was born and raised in New York, US. She comes from a remotely wealthy family, consisting of her father and mother, and two brothers and sister. Joana being the second youngest after her brother, Lucas. She grew up relatively happy, (everyone has their ups and downs.) She started ballet lessons at the age of five as she was always busy moving around on the rhythm of a tune/song, she'd heard on the radio or tv and that tune/song eventually got stuck in her head. Joana enjoyed everything about it, but wasn't always the most cooperative kid when she needed to be. besides come on a kid just want to have a good time. So it was after three years of ballet that she took up on Jazz and modern dance instead. The style just made her feel more comfortable and natural. How she was able to move more freely and was being able to put her real feelings into it. Her brother and eldest of the siblings was a fairly known dancer, specialty being hip hop and often would take Joana to practice or tournements where she learned quite a lot from. She discovered how deep her passion and love for dancing went when around sixteen or seventeen years old, after finding the courage to come out to her parents as biual. Which unfortunatly didn't go all that well. After coming out the one she expected to be the least hateful was Lucas, but he proofed her wrong and until now the two still aren't at speaking terms. It was her friends, Luis, her sister Noela and music that helped her grow her passion and had set a goal for herself to become a well known choreographer/dancer. 



RELATIONSHIPS.

               


   Older brother | Luis Eloy Mason | 23 | ceative, stubborn, detail-orientated | "any help would be you know...helpful" |  The oldest out of the four siblings. Luis is someone who Joana has always looked up to and still does. He would often take her and Thomas to dance competions or the local dance studio. He is the one who introduced her to the world of dance. He still likes to in and give his opinion about whatever makes him open his mouth and act like the stubbornly protective brother, Joana knows him to be. Even until now Joana doesn't know how Luis is able to sense when Joana is doubtful or feeling uneasy before she does.

                


   Older sister | Noela Ana Mason | 20 | eccentric, intelligent, playful | "can you get me an autograph ...?" | She is very curious about Joana's private life in South Korea and wants to know every detail when knowing Joana is going to a party or meeting where some celebarties will be attending as well. Occasionally asks Joana to get some autographs while she's at it. 

               


   Younger brother | Lucas Manoel Mason | 17 | charming, prideful, innovative | "I'm not talking to you..." | Let's just say the two aren't on speaking terms. Since Lucas refuses to talk to Joana about anything anymore and it's taking it's toll on their once close brother-sister relationship. He still hasn't come to accept the whole coming out confession from Joana and they still have a long way to go before one of the two takes the first step into repairing their tarnished friendship.


                 


   Childhood friend/roommate | Thomas Bastille | 20 | sarcastic, witty, curious, determinded | "I literally love you.." | These two have been together since god knows how long. They've always been neighbours and went to the same elementary as well as high school, only weren't in the same year. Even since at a young age the two were always found together, having a blast and even getting into trouble, because someone needed to prove something to one another. (nothing too dangerous tho. they didn't have bad influence on each other.) He was also the first one to know about her preference and who helped her out the most, emotionally. He was and still is her rock. Thomas has two sides when it comes to Joana, his highly affectionate side and his pain in the sarcastic side. The two often try to make time for each other and their outings are mostly consisting of them going to starbucks, getting curly fries or just simply practice together. Thomas always dreamed of starting his own dance camp/school, so when the opportunity came he grabbed it with both hands.  

                 


   Best Friend/roommate | Park Jaemi | 19 | sociable, blunt, focussed | "that's a terrible self-destructive plan, and i'm behind you a hundred procent ..." | After moving to Korea with Thomas, did Joana meet Jaemi face to face for the first time. Her two roommates moved out when Joana and Thomas were looking for a place to rent back when the two were still in the US.  Joana and Jaemi formed a close bond in such a short period of time that it looked like the two had known each other for years. Probably the most sane of the group even though she can be quite strange at times. what do you expect when having a bunch of weirdos as friends. Jaemi knows how to deal with Joana's lack of personal space and overall spirited personality and vice versa. Joana is forever grateful Jaemi didn't take it the wrong way when finding out she was bi. They often call each other when they aren't too busy and would talk about whatever is going on in their lives atm, about  problems they were facing, boys, girls, the newest marvel movie and/or serie, or just random, even basic stuff. Just to know the other is doing alright.

   interaction with fans; joana loves to interact with her fans even if it's in the smallest ways, especially when it comes to face-to-face interactions and she doesn't have a lot of time, she'll probably will throw some hearts here and there showing that she most definitely acknowledges and appreciates them. When she does have the time, you can easily ask her for a selfie or an autograph. As long as it doesn't turn into a haterage, she likes to keep her fans up to date though her instagram.  
   onstage-offstage difference; she isn't really that different, but I guess she is more careful? when cameras are focused on her and definitely gives her 100% for herself and her fans when she has to peform onstage.

  ideal type; someone who gives her a challenge, keeps her grounded and supportive.

   (+) caring, quick-witted, passionate, energetic 
   (- ) flirtious, cocky, impulsive, secretive
 
RELATIONSHIP. 
How they met;; The two met at Big Hit's dance studio when Joana was getting ready to practice for one of her choreography performances she had to prepare for and since it was so close to the actual performance, did Joana decide to try on different makeup styles, one of them was the heavy smokey eye look. Jimin was rather impressed by her dancing skills, but couldn't hide his laughter after his shocked expression when seeing the makeup. Well after the small encounter he started to refer to Joana as raccoon and hasn't stopped since this day.

Interaction;; Lots of tension and some hidden adoration towards each other? DENIAL DENIAL I TELL YOU!!
Whenever they are around each other, like a habit, they will most likely start with bickering, doesn't matter who starts it, what it's about or how stupid it sounds to others. Somehow always ending up leading to the opposite direction everyone else thought would lead to. Either being all, encouring one another, teaming up together and flirting with each other (personal space??!what personal space?!) or completely ignoring the other, pushing each other as far away and arguing even harder. If there is one thing the two agree and enjoy the most it's their passion for dancing. It's not that weird to see the two practicing together or giving each other praises or some advice.  Whenever Joana doesn't feel like talking to the girls/trainees, for some god damn reason she ends up knocking on Jimin's door and he even if they don't always get along, will listen to her rambles and vice versa.
 
End game;; the two will give each other a chance, after a lot of help (by nagging and just straight ahead pushing them towards each other) from their friends/trainees/members.
