like a mannequin
 
faceclaim : Kang Seungyoon (Winner)
backup : Lim Hyunsik (BtoB)
height & weight : 169cm & 64kg 
bloodtype : B
appearance : Hyubin is not exactly the prettiest  of boys, but he'd like to think he at least counts as handsome AF. Honestly his confidence does half the work for him, he believe he looks great and so he looks great. His eyes are really bad, he can't see very well at all without his glasses. Of course he's got contacts but he much prefers just wearing his glasses. He likes working out and going on runs and he's quite built and strong, also thanks to his breaking and tricking, you need good core stength for that. He's short, but that doesn't stop him from wrestling his taller members to the ground if he feels they deserve it (or trying to at least).
 
style : Hyubin has what he calls a "cool street fashion" , though if it's actually cool is the question. He's heard people say things like his fashion is "the worst" or " stop showing off your chicken chest" or "Hyubin I am the stylist and please put the shorts down!", but he objectively thinks they're wrong. It's cool street fashion.

Hyubin's style is predominantly casual He loves cool tees (v or boat neck to show of the chest), tanktops (to show off the muscles), and comfy sweaters. Also shorts, Hyu loves shorts and no one will stop him from wearing them. He's also usually sporting a snapback or a beanie. It's very rare to see him wear anything fancy, he has to be wrestled even into a blazer or a pair of slacks. The worst though is ties, he hates ties.  He always feels like he's gonna get strangled.


      

 

 
why am i like this?
 
traits : 

Positive - Hyubin is always super postive. He tries to look at things from the bright side, pessimism is just not in his nature. This isn't always a good thing for others though, Hyubin can be annoying optimistic. He also doesn't understand that when people are sad sometimes you just have to let them be sad, he'll try to cheer them up and make them see the bright side when for them currently there is none. 

(Over) confident and reckless - Hyubin is very confident in himself, he's fairly at peace with who he is. He might even be a bit too confident, though he also plays it up for laughs a lot. His confidence is quite magnetic though, because he's so sure of himself and his place in the world people often want to be around him. 

Unfortunately this overconfidence also comes with a side of recklessness. Hyubin doesn't usually think of the consequence of his actions, and he can come up with some damn stupid things because of how reckless (and really also stupid) he is. It's honestly a miracle he hasn't gotten himself killed yet, especially considering that skateboarding is one of his favourite things to do. At least his exploits make for great variety stories.

 
Unfocused - Hyubin has very little self-discipline and if left to his own devices he'll just start goofing off and messing around.

Eager to please - He's a bit of a puppy in this regard. Hyubin wants everyone to like him, and he wants to do a good job. So while by himself he's lazy with no self-discipline, when someone else asks him to do something he will work really hard to accomplish it to the best of his abilities. 


Unintelligent - Hyubin isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, and he knows it.  He's horrible at math, and no matter how much he tries he just can't seem to grasp learning languages (though it doesn't stop him from trying to speak mangled English to sound cool). He can also be a little slow at grasping puns or clever jokes, he'll be the one going "OH!" 5 minutes later and falling over with laughter.

Dense - While he's pretty good at lightening the mood with his jokes, he's not so good at noticing when nobody is waiting for his help. He's also not very good sensing when his presence just isn't appreciated, and sometimes he needs someone to just tell him to shut up. He doesn't take that personally, in fact he's thankful if someone just let's him know when it's enough and please Hyubin just stfu. 

Rude - He doesn't mean to be rude, but sometime Hyubin can be less respectful of his sunbae than required. He easily speaks informal with people and sometimes he just gets really excited about things and forgets to bow etc. Another time when he really needs one of the members to be like Hyubin bow to your sunbae and stfu. 


Funny - Hyubin is great at lightening the mood with jokes, mostly either self-appreciating or self-depreciating. He plays his confidence up for laughs, but he equally plays up how dumb he is if it can get a laugh out of people.

This also means that the boy is variety gold. He's built a persona around being over-confident. Whenever he's asked to do anything he always says he can, and subsequently fails miserably. 

Mischievous - Hyubin is already ready to goof off and cause some mischief and just have some fun. As with all of the above though, there is a time and place to goof off and cause mischief, and Hyubin doesn't always grasp that. 


Avoids confrontation - Hyubin is really bad at confrontation, he hates it when people yell at him and he cries easily. Be warned, yelling at him will make him cry. It's also really hard to make Hyubin angry. He can get sad or disappointed, but not angry. When you do manage to get him angry he has two stages, fuming but quiet where he's not angry enough to put aside his discomfort at confrontations, and absolutely furious where he starts swinging and he gets pretty scary.

Things that might make him actually mad: threatening his friends, nasty homophobia or ism towards his friends, really just being awful towards his friends. If any of that is aimed towards himself he'll just take it, but he'll defend his friends.


Gentle - He's a true gentle soul, he'd never hurt a fly. He's the one who will get sad when a member kills a spider. He always tries to catch any bugs that come into the dorm and safely put themback outside. 

Accidentally Flirty - The way Hyubin interacts with people is casually and easily. He's always smiling and making jokes and giving attention. Unfortunately this means that even though he doesn't mean to, it seems like he's flirting a lot. When he actually likes a guy he gets really awkward around them, and will do anything they ask, and get flustered and stumble over his words a lot. It's kind of pathetic, really.
 

 
background : Hyubin grew up in Nonsan, a fairly small city in South-Chungcheong province, and he never really strayed very far from it either. His parents started a small restaurant and that restaurant has been the center of their lives ever since. They even lived right above it. His parents are extremely hard-working, they built the restaurant up from nothing and even though they've always struggled, financially, it still stands. From the moment he was able, Hyubin has been helping at, mostly washing dishes in the back and sometimes acting as a waiter when he was older.

Hyubin has always likes music. He was infamous at the restaurant for putting on music and singing along when he was on dish duty. Sometimes he was so loud that you'd hear him in the restaurant, and his dad would come in and sush him, which would quiet Hyubin for about half an hour before he started again. The regulars all came to understand that sometimes dining at the restaurant meant a bit of extra background noise. He would also even then try to copy idol dances. Shinhwa and Fin.K.L. were his heroes, he adored them. When he was little he used to beg his parents to let him take dance classes, and they always told him that no, sorr Binnie, there's no money for that right now. What he didn't know was that they were saving up for it, and for his 12th birthday finally got to take regular dance classes. Hyubin chose hip hop because it sounded super cool, and he later switched to breakdancing which sounded super cool. When he was 16 he even learned some tricking, mostly learning cool flips and jumps, which was even cooler. 

School was never really great for Hyubin. He's not very smart and he was always struggling with his grades.He got bullied quite a bit for being dumb, he used to count the minutes until the schoolday was over and he could skate until he was needed at the restaurant. Then everything changed whenAhri transferred to his class. At first he really wanted to impress her with how super cool he was (he didn't have a lot of friends). During the break he did some skateboard tricks and some breakdancing and he totally expected her to be all over him, wasn't he awesome?? But she just rolled her eyes and told him to stop acting like an idiot. However later when some of the other kids in his class were being mean to him she stood up for him and this was the birth of a beautiful friendship.She would let him cheat on tests and she yelled at the bullies, he made her laugh with that stupid charm of his. Just like that they were stuck together.

It took him a little while to confront the big gay elephant in the room (it was him. He was the big gay elephant). He'd always have those thoughts of "wow he's so handsome" or "omg that's a nice " but he denied any kind of possibility that these thoughts might be gay. They were just normal locker room thoughts right?? Denial is powerful thing though and it took until he was 16 when he got a major crush on one of the guys in his dance class that he really had to sit down and acknowledge the elephant. The first thing he said was "well... ". He told Ahri almost immediately after and the first thing she said was "no , you dumb , you've been checking out guys more than I have". It took him another two years to be comfortable with the idea of it all. He still hasn't told anyone other than Ahri. His mom might understand but his dad definitely wouldn't. He's also never actually dated anyone, Nonsan not having much of a gay night life and not feeling comfortable opening himself up for it.

When they finished high school Ahri moved away to study engineering in Seoul, while Hyubin knew that he wasn't smart enough for university and didn't really know what else to do with his life. So he stayed in Nonsan and became a full time employee at the restaurant. He was quite miserable, getting a bad case of depression because Ahri left, and feeling lost without a dream to pursue. He spent a year and a half like this, and saved up his paychecks for a trip to Seoul. It was the first time he'd even ventured out of the province and he was really excited. He got the bright idea to just drop in on Ahri at university and not tell her he was coming. On his way there he read about Saseum holding auditions and so h got the even brighter idea to audition for them because why not? It wasn't like he was doing anything else worthwhile with his life, and he was decent enough at dancing and singing. He auditioned with some breaking and tricking and no one was more surprised than he was when they offered him a position as trainee. He signed the paperwork right away (which probably wasn't super smart but hey this is Hyubin we're talking about) and immediately made his way to Ehwa where he just about didn't run into Ahri's classroom to tell her the news. When he told her that not only did he come to Seoul unannounced (and also expected to crash on her couch), but he also impulsively auditioned for an entertainment company of all things AND got accepted, she punched him so hard on the arm he had a big bruise for over a week.

Worth it.


 
 
likes :
Animals, any kind, even those others think are gross or creepy.
Traditional Korean food, he grew up on it. He's also very fond of pizza. 
Doing reckless and stupid . Also trying out extreme sports, much for the same reason.
Karaoke/noraebang
Watching variety shows and cheesy romantic movies. But if anyone asks he's totally into manly action flicks. Totally.
Skinship, as long as it's not too clingy. He likes hugs, both giving them and getting them, but he doesn't like it if someone hangs on his arms for ages.
- (!) Cooking, his mom taught him. Unfortunately he likes the eating bit a lot more than the cooking bit so him actually getting up to do it is quite rare.
Communicting withthe fans on their fan café, he likes the attention.
Going out and getting smashed. A night out isn't complete if Hyubin doesn't drunkely try (and fail) to breakdance on the dancefloor.
He likes his coffee black and bitter.
Shorts, they're the best.
 
dislikes : 
- (!) Confrontation and getting yelled at. Please don't yell at him, he is sensitive and he wll cry (not on the spot, but he'll get teary and if it's really bad he'll excuse himself to have a cry in the bathroom).
Animal abuse. That is not cool. 
Ties, they're the worst! Always too tight round the neck man.
Winter, you can't wear shorts in the winter.
ist people who put unrealistic standards on women. He's heard enough rants from Ahri to know a lot about the topic.
 
hobbies : 
Skateboarding, and he's quite good at it too.
Learning dances from other groups, be it boy or girl groups.
Breakdancing. "It's like normal but cooler" - Kim Hyubin, 2016
- (!) Tricking. "It's like jumping, but infinitely cooler" -Kim Hyubin, 2016. He's not so good at the kicking (he never trained in martial arts), but he's very good at the flipping (he's nuts and daring and determined to be as cool as humanly possible).
 
habits : 
Stopping in his tracks to pet a cat or dog. Sometimes he'll arrive late just because there was cat or dog on his path and he had to pet it.
Saving any bug that ends up inside the dorm. He will be extremely disappointed in s if they kill it.
Sneaking out of the dorm at night, not even to go anywhere, but just because it's forbidden and thus it's exciting. Sometimes he'll just go to the roof and look at the stars, or go for a midnight run. 
 
trivia : 
- (!) He's good at doing tricks like  bboy power moves and freezing, as well as as flips.
- (!) He once tried to do a back flip off of his skateboard off of a half-pipe and almost broke his arm. Honestly it was a miracle he didn't break his neck. He never tried that again, mostly because Ahri told him she'd kill him if he did.
- (!) He ends up hurting himself quite a bit, tricks don't always go right. Unless it'a serious injury he'll hide it, at least until the performance or event is over, and then he'll joke about it.
- (!) He has an instagram account where he likes to post videos of his best (read: dumbest) pranks and stunts, usually filmed by either Sanghyun or Taewon. Some of the classics are covering the manager's car with stickynotes, sliding down a busy hill in garbage cans, taping the leader's things to the ceiling, and tricking/jumping over most probably dangerous obstacles. (Or maybe the squad can make a shared youtube channel for their crazy stunts?) 
He's an extrovert, he feeds off of social interaction.
Will totally join Sanghyun in singing and dancing to girl group songs. He actually legitimately likes them. He's really bad at them though he's all power and zero grace.
Hyubin's really bad at geography and often gets that stuff wrong during shows or interviews. When they perform in a foreign country he will make a point of looking up where it is and reading up about it so he show the fans that he cares.
Hyubin is totally okay with being gay, but that doesn't mean he's any sort of out of the closet. Only Ahri knows and he's content to keep it that way. He's not looking for love anyway, he's far too busy for that. But don't think for a moment that he will put up with any homophobic behaviour.
If any of the members are open about being lgbt he'll be in awe and super supportive, but it will still take some time for him to be ready to come out even to those closest to him.
He tries so hard to act cute sometimes but he just utterly fails at it.
He'll definitely cry at their first music show win (and some subsequent ones), as well as big awards. He's a giant softie.
If asked his ideal type he'll say "Me", and when someone else is asked the question he'll budge in with "it's me right?".
Usually his hangovers are really weak. He can drink a black coffee and if it's a "bad" one a tylenol and be totally okay for the day.
He would try to drive home under influence. In fact if he goes out on his own and drives home drunk that could be a scandal.
Him and Ahri thought about a stage name for him for a long time, repeating cool sounding syllables until they settled on Milow because she said Milove was too cheesy and so they shortered it to Milow (the 'w'is rule of cool). 
Has a bit of a crush on Lim Hyunki, the stylist. But he will still fight for his right to shorts.

 

 
you're too harsh
 
family : 

Mom| Kang Yoomi  | 45 | Korean food chef | Cheerful, hardworking, openminded, patient|

Dad | Kim Jonghoon | 43 | Restaurant manager | Positive, hardworking, stubborn, conservative |

Hyubin's parents are extremely hard-working people, they're always busy with the restaurant, but they make time for their son if they can. Jonghoon had counted on Hyubin to take over the family business and and he's quite disappointed the Hyubin chose to audition for Saseum. It feels a bit like a betrayal to him and currently there's a rift between them that will need some mending. (It didn't help that the call home went something like "Dad, ehm, I kind of/sort of auditioned for an entertainent company andIstartin2weeksbye"). Yoomi is very supportive though, she's glad that Hyubin found something that he's good at and wants to do, instead of putting his life in the restaurant instead. She's always wanted him to choose his own path in life and she's very happy that he has.

 
friends :

Straight best friend and occasional beard | Ahn Ahri | 20 | engineering student at Ehwa Womans University | Bossy, mischievous, smart, stressed, blunt, quick-witted, short-tempered |

Ahri is Hyubin's other half. They've been friends since they met in high school and she's also been his beard on numerous occasions (fake date to take to functions to pretend he's hetero). He was incredibly sad and a little depressed when she left for university in Seoul and left him behind, and absolutely ecstatic when he got accepted into Saseum and moved to Seoul.

 
When they're together they usually laze around and exchance jibes (Ahri's being significantly wittier than Hyubin's) or alternatie they'll be causing mischief one way or another. She's usually the one who stops him from doing anything too stupid or life-threatening though. She's very blunt and says what she thinks (and plainly tells him when he's being an idiot) and Hyubin really appreciates that. He calls her when he's unsure about something and she usually gives solid advice.

He'll try to sneak her into performances or fanmeets or event if hes able and if she has the time.


The squad | Park Sanghyun | 22 |[i]ce member | 

Hyubin gets along swimmingly with Sanghyun. The two probably get up to more mischief than either of their leaders would like, and end up doing really stupid things with little regard for their own safeties. One small statement (I bet I could skateboard through traffic) snowballs until Hyubin's standing in front of a busy street with his board and Sanghyun  is filming and one of the leaders runs up and yells at them for being irresponsible and stupid and trying to get themselves killed...


(!)The squad | No Taewon | 20 |[i]ce membe | 

Another partner in Hyubin's (and Sanghyun's?) antics is Taewon. He's probably the smartest of the three of them, Hyubin often asks him totally reasonable questions like "is Russia a part of China?" or "do blind people experience love at first sight?" You know, as one does. He will also often confidently express that he cold totally bench-press Taewon, and with permission he might actually unsuccessfully try. Hey nobody's ever claimed that Hyubin isn't up for (failing) a challenge. 

Unfortunately Hyubin's too dense to notice that Taewon isn't doing too well, emotionally. When he finds out, though, Hyubin will go out of his way to make him feel loved. He's one of his best bros and he won't stand by while one of his best bros is feeling bad about himself. Oh no sir that won't fly at all. 


 
others : lorem ipsum

 

 
  
i wanna be like that hyung
 
stage name : Milow
persona : He will insist that his persona is "F[i]re's most handsome"  but the members mostly refer to him as "the dumb one".
position : Lead vocals, dancer, visual
fanclub : Mi-loves, cheesy AF and just as Hyubin likes it.
talent twin(s) : 
Singing: Hyunsik (BtoB)
Dancing:
(!) Mark Tuan (Got7) 
 
trainee years : Two whole months
TRAINEE life : These last two months were pretty rough on Hyubin. He'd never done anything like being a trainee in his life and found out exactly what his spur of the moment decision was going to ask of him. Still he had a goal now, which was more than he's ever had before, and he damn well isn't going to waste that. So he works hard on improving his skills and trying to catch up to the other trainees who've all been going at it longer than he has.
predebut : Nothing, he was a complete nobody before joining Saseum.
scandals : F[i]re's Milow caught going on a date? | false | He was just hanging out with Ahri. Afterwards he will go on a show or interview and explain who Ahri is and tell the story of how they met, and explain that she's like a sister to him.

comments :  Eeeyy I hope you like this little <3
scene requests/suggestions: 
Squad shenanigans ofc. 
If I don't come up with a LI: maybe Hyubin getting a crush on someone and following him around like a big gay puppy.
Hyubin and Sanghyun and Taewon all trying sneaking out of the dorm at the same time for different reasons and like huh wtf are you doing here too??
(!) Maybe Hyubin cooking delish korean food for the members as an apology when he's caused too much trouble.
password : "Wait for real I have to do a promise thing? Ehm, I promise to be the very best, like no  one eve- ugh okay fine. I promise that I can do this, and your faith in me isn't misplaced. I will do my best to shine as bright as I can and not let this opportunity go to waste."
