〈 SUMMIT 〉 ardene kim.
neutral traits / boyish, emotional, extra
her confidence is one of her strongest traits. she always has her head held high and doesn't let others pull her down. she has no problem voicing out her thoughts and opinions. she believes strongly in herself and she knows she can do a good job.
"you are so not feeling well, stop hiding it stupid"
she's also really observant. she likes watching people, her surroundings, everything. from the smell of the morning dew, the coldness of a winter night, how the sun shines through the trees. she can see the good in the bad and the bad in the good. because she’s observant, she can predict what other people are thinking or what they feel as of that moment by just their facial expressions and body language. this side of her shows that she's a real softie and is very caring towards everything and everyone.
"let's have some fun, shall we?"
she is a perfect example of a mischief maker. she projects an aura of freshness and enthusiasm. she likes to cause trouble and prank people in a playful way, all with good intentions of course. she likes to liven up the atmosphere with her humorous stories and jokes and sometimes lame ones as well. she'll laugh at her lames ones which makes the whole room laugh with her. she's also always down for new experiences and anything that can give her a smile or laugh when reminiscing about it. she enjoys making people smile and laugh and it calms her and she doesn't know why. she is a master of communication and is a very amusing and gifted entertainer. fun and variety are guaranteed when she is around. have her as a friend, you will never be bored; with her, you can enjoy life to the full and celebrate the best parties.
"i couldn't care less really, just do you"
ardene is a person who accepts a person as they are. she doesn't really care about what other people label them, as long as she knows what kind of person they are, she wouldn't take other people's judgment. she's willing to embrace change and and try new things. she gets bored when things are repetitive. she respects each person's difference and encourages them to be proud of themselves. she doesn't label people other than those b*stards who are worthless and all that.
► "dude every cool girl is half boy"
ardene is really a boyish girl. maybe because of growing up with a dad and a twin brother. she's always down for anything and loves the thrill. bungee jumping, sky diving, you name it. she's pretty relaxed with herself and around people and doesn't mind ruining her image. she isn't afraid to get her hands dirty but well she is afraid of cockroaches and spiders. she likes skateboarding with her brother and other friends.
*sniffs* "this seriously hurts my heart"
a typical pisces trait. she is a pretty emotional and sensitive person. she is easily touched or easily hurt by things or people. she cries easily and is labeled a cry baby by some. but her emotions are genuine and real. she will most likely be the first one to cry in a sad drama or movie. she is also pretty good hiding her real emotions though, especially if she doesn't want to cause worry to people.
*does crab dance out of the blue*
everything she does is really extra and unpredictable. from her reactions to her imitations and all. she's like a living meme and people can't help but laugh and enjoy. but sometimes it can be cringeworthy but still funny. she does stuff out of the box and out of the norm. it's no surprise if one of her antics trends and becomes viral. she also has a weird way of explaining her thoughts and stuff. she basically doesn't care about her image, which gets her scolded. she also out of nowhere asks senseless and nonsense questions that makes you go wtf at her.
► "yay. *smiles fakely*"
she speaks fluent sarcasm. she gets irritated when she says something that is the furthest thing from serious, but the person she's talking to just doesn’t understand her sarcasm. when she meets someone and she instantly hates them, she has a super hard time hiding it. she kinda got the habit of ending sentences with 'just kidding' or 'it was a joke' to lighten things up when everyone got silet or something. since she's known to be mischievous and funny, people don't get when she's being sarcastic or being funny and it irritates her a lot, which draws out her sarcasm even more.
"you're good, but i'm better"
ardene is arrogant. growing up and getting used to being labelled as perfect by people got in her head. she has that overbearing pride and thinks she knows things more than she actually does. she loves displaying her elevated opinion and will act high and mighty. she just loves to be the center of attention and hates it when someone steals her spotlight. she diminishes others to make herself feel more superior. she kinda has a superiority complex. she is also aggressive.
"wtf is happening over here?"
ardene tends to intrude in other people's business. this trait links to her high mindedness. she thinks that she can help by meddling with other people's problems. though she has a good mindset about it, it comes off as annoying and irrelevant to many. she's always curious about what other people are talking or whispering about and can't help but want to know.
"well that was horrible"
she is a living example of brutal yet awesome. she speaks her mind, thoughts and opinions freely, without holding back. if she knows you're at fault, she will no doubt confront you about it. she doesn't mind you disliking her or think of her negatively. she's the person who did or said something nobody else had the guts to. she doesn't care about the consequences of her actions. her words can be really harsh to the point of making the other party cry.
when she was 6, she confessed this to her brother. her brother then invited her to watch him in his dance classes (he took up hip hop classes the same year ardene started piano as well, since he already started with his taekwondo lessons before, which is like a common thing for sons to learn if you're korean lol). while watching him, she can't help but bob her head to the rhythm. seeing this, the dance instructor encouraged her to try it out. surprisingly she had a natural talent as said by the instructor and well she had a lot of fun and asked her parents to let her take dance class as well with much pleading towards her mom since her dad wants what his daughter wants. so since she was 6, she started hip hop classes. she gradually started branching out towards other dance genres such as popping, locking and even break dancing. though she considered hip hop as her forte. she still focused on her piano, because her mom wanted her to at least learn the piano to contrast with her hip hop. when she was 8, her parents got divorced, reason still unknown to the siblings and her dad won custody over the two siblings because he a high paying job, her mother was only a housewife. it affected her relationship with her dad, but he reasoned out that he'll explain once they get older. academic wise, she does really well in school being an all a student with an average gpa of 3.21. her family was also active members of the church as well as its choir. she's a pretty good singer and enjoyed singing as well, but still prefered dancing.
in 2010, her father was offered a teaching job in university of california, so they moved there. she had a hard time adjusting to the environment but she managed. she and her brother joined a dance studio, movement lifestyle and they were quick to gain a name in their studio for their skills. she also participated in a number of dance competitions with her brother and they won several awards. in 2013, shaun evaristo, movement lifestyle founder, suddenly called the siblings and told them to come to the studio. when they did, they saw him with an asian guy. shaun introduced the guy as jeon jungkook, a korean who went to la to learn dance. the two siblings greeted him and welcomed him in korean. ardene became close to him, being korean as well as being the same age. she toured him around la. she found out that he was a member of an upcoming kpop group and when he went back to seoul and debuted in bts, she monitored his activities. she became a fan of kpop ever since. her brother came across jyp's us tour auditions in 2014 and showed it to his sister. ardene was unsure of it but her brother assured her she has the talent to become famous and make a name for herself. they talked to their dad about it. ardene thought he wouldn't agree but then he said he is more than willing to drive her to the venue if she really wanted to audition. so she did and auditioned in the dance category. surprisingly she got through the 1st round and was told to get ready to fly to seoul for the final round.
she flew to seoul on her own, lived in a dorm provided by the company, did her audition and became a jyp trainee in 2014. she was actually supposed to be part of sixteen but was the only one to be cut off the line up for unknown reasons. mid 2017, she decided to leave jyp to pursue her studies and dancing. after settling in seoul, she enrolled at sopa majoring in dance. after her graduation, she got into korea university of arts and majored in choreography. her dad helped fund her needs and her schools. she also stayed in a small studio apartment. when she choreographs dance for her major subjects, she goes to han river park. then she found out about the big hit survival show from jungkook (who she contacted when she moved to korea and they kept in contact since). he told her to try out at the open auditions. she declined him at first. but after thinking things through and arranging her thoughts, she decided to do it. if she doesn't go through, then she'll quit her dream of becoming an idol artist.
► aiden kim (kr: hwanyeon) / 23 / brother / dance major / fc: ahn hyoseop
her older brother is her most trusted best friend and they practically don't hide any secrets with each other. despite being younger, ardebe takes care of her brother really well. back when she still lived with him, she made sure he had proper meals during the proper time. he's protective of her and always has her back. they also have a bit of sibling rivarly but it's all good fun. she calls him whenever she needs advise from time to time and to check up on him too.
ardene felt her phone vibrating on the sofa while she was watching tv. she grabbed her phone and checked who the caller was. she lowered the volume of the tv and tapped the answer button. "what do you want muggle?" "stop calling me that." "nah, you a muggle. how can someone not be into harry potter?" "not my cup of tea." "blah blah blah." "hear me out. i need your amazing sister skills." "is it about a girl?" before aiden could answer, ardene cut him off. "again?" "what do you mean again?" "coz um you're a playboy." she said in a matter of fact tone. "first, i am not a playboy. second, it's the same girl halfling." "don't call me that you stick tower." "fyi, i've been going to the gym, i'm perfectly lean now." "please, i didn't ask and i don't care muggle." "okay okay, just hear me out will ya?" they talked for hours on how to help jay get the girl. "thanks ace, you the bomb!" "anytime spades"
► jeon jungkook / 20 / friend / idol
ardene and jungkook are quite close friends. having met back in la and reuniting once again as sunbae and hoobae. they joke around that before it was ardene who was the sunbae and now it's jungkook. basically they get along pretty well. having similar likes and tastes and hobbies as well. they speak informally with each other. though they don't actually meet up in person, they talk through sms from time to time to catch up. ardene also invited jungkook to attend a class in 1million. that is why jungkook was seen wearing a 1m tshirt.
"yah jeon jungkook. how's life?" ardene said on her phone, which was on loud speaker as she was eating cerial. "dude talk when you've swallowed." "yeah yeah yeah, i asked a question" ardene replied while still munching on her cereal. "tired. so are you planning on auditioning?" "still not sure. i really want to just pursue dancing. i think idol life just doesn't suit me." "i doubt that. you dance better than some group's main dancers, and you have a pretty decent voice. you're talent is just high caliber." "praises and compliments coming from you is so weird. i'd rather hear that from someone i don't know than to hear it from you." "well that was mean." "thanks." ardene replied back with a smirk though jungkook can't see it.
► kim eunho / 23 / close friend / flirtationship / 1million choreographer
when ardene started attending 1million, it was eunho's class. she got his attention when she's the first one to get his moves down and it memorize them. he acts extra goofy around ardene and likes to . she teases him back too. we can say that there is an attraction between them and it's pretty obvious but they don't plan on making it serious. when they partner up during dances, the chemistry will explode.
eunho asked ardene to accompany him to the gym. he was waiting outside the gym then ardene arrived in casual clothing. "did you bring a change of clothes?" eunho asked. "no, coz you didn't say i'd be working out as well" she smiled triumphantly. during eunho's work out, ardene went out and returned with food. she started eating them in front of eunho. she knew all too well that eunho was also a food fighter like her. "hmm dude this is seriously so good" then she took a bite. she kept teasing him until he couldn't take anymore. before she could take a bit again on her corndog, he took her hand and tried to take a bite. ardene didn't back down without a fight but lost because of strength differences. but she still considered herself the winner.
