► negative ; unfocused, overthink, emotional

Personality:
meet the group's very own smile angel. she always seem introverted at first, like for example, in an interview. lu mei is very shy and observant at first, but once she sees what vibes or auras people give out in the situation, she adapts and show her creative bubbly personality like as if a switch went on between her extraversion and introversion…? a real ray of sunshine, she's most definitely is. 
lu mei symbolizes fun and versatility. she is child like, playful and engineered to makes the rest of the members happy. she is adept at bringing joy into lives. she also is a witty and a good conversationalist, the person who people truly wants to be around at any party or social functions. she has such strong people skill. lu mei appreciate both casual small talks and deep meaningful conversations, which are just like two sides of a similar coin for her, and is adept at guiding the interactions in ways that feel completely natural and unforced. she is approachable, interesting and exciting, she gets along with pretty much everyone, and her circles of friends stretch far and wide.
although she creates a lot of joy for people around her, she is unfortunately not as good at making herself truly happy when she's sad at times. she hides those feeling behind the mask of happiness. it takes a lot of work to make her truly happy, and that it takes only a little something to ruin it. while emotional expression is healthy and natural, with lu mei, it can come out strongly enough to cause problems. particularly when under stress, criticism or conflict. she thus need a patient people around her and people who are willing to work for her happiness. diving inside, she tends to spend a lot of time in her head, even to the point of thinking too much. she doesn't trust things fully, she looks for underlying motives in even the simplest things. it’s not strange for lu mei to lose a bit of sleep asking herself why someone did what they did, what it might mean, and what to do about it.  
when it regards to new ideas, lu mei want to go out and experience, she don’t hesitate to step out of her comfort zones to do so. she is imaginative and open-minded, seeing all things as part of a big, mysterious puzzle called life. she is quite clever. not academically but she is naturally curious and develop a broad knowledge of many different subject areas. it helps that she's perceptive and picks up on things that others miss. and, her cleverness extends to mind and body. she also the competent and expert at many and varied tasks. she also can be a formidable competitor in competition, contest or on the athletics field. underneath her gentle exterior is a real loads of competitive streak. 
lu mei loathe being micromanaged and restrained by heavy-handed rules, the challenge for her is that she lives in that world, imagine music does the checks and balances. it's hard for lu mei to maintain interest as tasks drift towards routine. she can be unrealistically romantic and an over confident gambler. that's understandable in a way given her quick mind allows her to make it through situations that foils others. still, if she takes enough risks, her gambling instincts could be her downfall. finally it must be say that she has a reputation for being a flirt and one of the most promiscuous of the members. can't let all that charm fo to waste. 

School:  she decided to put off college to concentrate on music.

"no matter, how many people i meet, i won't forget about you dummy~ i'll miss your dumb face."

they met in the company, knowing that they're close in age, they changed numbers and become closer. the language wasn't a barrier anymore. she was cheery yet a bit spoiled. she always feels insecure when she's to be compared to the more popular members but she try to not show that to people. she and lu mei has compatible personalities and they really goes well together. her beautiful voice and lu mei's amazing dance, they created one of the best synchronization when dance together. they had been practicing together since they were trainee.

Background:
her family is not the wealthiest nor poor, she comes from a upper middle-class military family. her father is respectable in the military, one of the captains. her father always remind her brother and her while growing up to know their limit and don't be careless with all wealth and success. because life is like a spinning wheel, we doesn't know when will we get forced to go down or take a dive. 
aside from giving the prep talks, she's not that close with her father, he has always been busy with work. the younger her was resentful about her father's lack of attention and him rarely staying at home but learn to disregard that as she grew up. while her housewife mother is always at home, looking after the kids, she has this habit of comparing the brother and sister. she had soft spot for the son.
since child, lu han was known as the smart and talented boy. while for lu mei, she would always be the second after her brother. both of the kids are pretty and adorable but the younger one can't seemed to concentrate on her study. even when she tried, she would be late in picking up the subjects. especially during mathematics and science classes, she would ended up daydreaming or drawing. luckily, her teachers can't really be mad at the sweetcheeks.
despite the comparison, lu han and lu mei were close, lu mei is the type of younger sibling who will follow and love whatever lu han do, it turns out lu han has this special love to perform and sing on stage. without any thought, the younger her decided that she going to have the same dream. her passion was then developed by times. she never get professional training but only following what she sees from internet, her teacher is youtube.
the father doesn't support the kids' dream, correction, lu han's drem, as he was the very first to be vocal about his dream in becoming an idol. when he said he want to be an idol, he had blacklash against that. the mother had been unsure but goes besides the father, she said no to lu han. that what lead to lu han leaving home and lu mei rarely see him again. their parent told them entertainment world had no hope as a career choices, but let lu han go anyway.
life without lu han had been boring and lonely, although the siblings still talk through phonecalls, texts and skype. she was thrilled to tell the parents about exo's showcase that they never turned up to. lu mei did live streamed and she wished she has the penny to fly to korea for the event. her gege grew up all this way without financial or family support (except for her) and look how far he had come. she decided that she was going to do the same.
