description
chanhee is someone who thinks his place his place in life was always right there waiting for him. he ever mentioned that before he knew it, he was born into this world, and before he knew it, he had many friends in school despite his awkwardness. but when he got scouted and the hope of debuting seemed walk away from his life, that changed. but still, he's the type of person who is goes with the flow rather than stand up for his own.
he is the one who is always on time when it comes to practice. and you can see he'd still stay in practice room 'till very late at night. it isn't rare to see him spending the night in that room alone to perfect his movement. 
he puts other people's needs above his. even if he doesn't intentionally does this, chanhee is always worries about the ones he cares more than himself. when someone tells chanhee about a problem or a struggle, he always wants to take the burden from them. well, he has been taught from a young age that it's important to be nice, kind, and agreeable and to put other people's wants and needs before his own. and then he gets so reinforced for this that he ends up taking it to an extreme where he's chronically taking care of other people but never addressing his own wants and needs. he constantly denying his own wants and needs by being overly-accommodating of others that he ends up taking things personally more often than he should. in short : that he doesn't matter.
chanhee is a spontaneous person. he is charming and full of energy and real person of action. he keeps a clear head and the overview even in difficult situations. this makes him popular problem solvers, his ability of being able to absorb and process information is phenomenal. but because he is always thinking, he's spacing out often. but even so, he rarely nervous or overexcited. most of the time you'll see he's a cool and collected person. but as a socially awkward person, he can getting anxious around strangers. fear of judgment, fear of crowds, fear of saying the wrong thing. those keep him away from situations where he has to interact with strangers. he just feels that something isn't right.
he's a good conversationalist. he's great to talk to. you're not going to get bullhorned by chanhee, nor catfished, gaslit, or unfairly berated. you'll actually be listened to.
because all these times people in the company always mentioned about how he's lacking in every aspect except dancing, it significantly affect his feelings of self-worth. he finds himself replaying memories of those verbal abuse.
last but not least, he's lacking self-restraint when it would be wise to have it. he doesn't think about the consequences and might cross the street without looking both ways. his careless and wild behavior can get him into big trouble.

backstory
dancing was already his passion ever since he was young. upon this, he often does some street performance with his friends back then. until one day, he met k.tune's president and recruited to the agency.
although he was scouted by the president himself, chanhee, later on, realized that he can't sing and rap. he often criticized this area too. sana told him he was just embarrassed when he was singing and that's why his voice sounds weird. the girl then took him to walk and came up with the idea that they would sing if they want to tell something. they even told their embarrassing lines on the street in front of a lot of people and that was when chanhee started to overcome his embarrassment and finally managed to sing well.
later on, chanhee learned that he was not wanted, that nobody in the company would give him a chance to debut. the reason? it remained a mystery. no matter how much he practices or helping the other artist in their choreography, the staff took his hard work for granted. they never acknowledge his effort in improving his vocal and rap as well. good thing, he never neglects his education thus despite his tight practice schedule, he managed to get his diploma.

relationships
family & friends
 
minatozaki sana
best friend
 
a girl he knows that he can always rely on. they had been friends since they were 5. over the years, they pursued the same dream. too bad the girl finally decided to gave up and now work as a stylist. sana knows practically everything about chanhee. and the same thing also goes for the opposite. no wonder, many people misunderstood them as a couple.
 
 
nam sungmin
groupmate
 
upon joining the agency, chanhee was told that there's someone who has similar personality with him. after he met sungmin and spend some time with him for awhile, he knew right away, sungmin was like a younger version of him. their personality was very similar to the point he felt like he can read his mind or understand his feeling without him saying it verbally. it makes chanhee naturally interact with him more than the others. of course, chanhee also makes sure he steps in when needed. and well... chanhee probably would ask him a lot about eunjung.
 
THE LOVE 
 

love interest: park eunjung (dreamcatcher's jiu)

backup: -

relationship label: friends

lover's personality
eunjung is an adorable looking woman who will not hesitate to cut you. she might be cute and have a motherly side, but she can be a fierce manager. she is almost comically strong and strikes fear in the core of even the coldest person. she is a determined person as well. basically, eunjung is a mature one and will not hesitate to get the boys out of any situation. eunjung is very tough love, and sometimes even her caring side can be a bit overbearing.

first meeting
it was a usual day when he and the other members doing their street performance. that's the only thing they can do while waiting for the good news about their debut day to come.
one thing that make the day different, a tiny woman came. it seemed like she was friend of sungmin look at how close they are. in chanhee's eyes, sungmin isn't a type who can talk comfortably right away with stranger. but again, nothing special. yes, she's pretty, but chanhee never care much about girls, saying that "they don't really look at me."
but as a surprise, later the woman came again. claimed that she already pledged to became their manager and determined to help them debut. even she let them to stay in her apartment.
that second, she was no longer a usual woman for chanhee, instead, "this nuna is crazy..."

the love story:
it is rare to see chanhee could interact comfortably with strangers. maybe its because eunjung's ability to embrace the boys. maybe chanhee indeed already attracted to her without him realizing. one thing that the other member noticed, for an unknown reason, this guy could get along well with eunjung in a short time.
you can see they usually hang out after practice, having dinner together outside, just two of them without the other boys. while chanhee thinks about his insecurity, eunjung would boost up his spirit, saying that actually his rap and sing isn't that bad. shortly said, eunjung is like his support system.
chanhee isn't good at expressing his feelings for women. no wonder he has been single all this time lmao. but eunjung isn't a dense woman. when the other boys still blind, she can sense he started to develop feelings for her. once in a while, she'd boldly flirt with him which makes chanhee flustered because he doesn't know how to react.
minatozaki sana is their problem. this girl is incredibly close to chanhee and eunjung has to admit, she is jealous of her. it confusing because she clearly can see chanhee is obviously like her, but at the same time, he never make a clear statement about his relationship with sana.
on the other hands, chanhee thinks it's clear that sana is only a friend to him so he doesn't need to say it out loud to anyone about their status. she's like his sister.

interactions
though they are two years apart, the two have a great relationship out of their formal status as manager and artist. they exchange texts on a daily basis though live in the same roof. the conversations between them often talking about their personal thing rather than the professional one. it was surprisingly eunjung who set the rule to ban talking about working topics.

ending: i'll let you decide ;)

trivia
- ever since chanhee had this super friendly relationship with eunjung, the other members dubbed him as a player because they think sana is his girlfriend. for unknown reason, chanhee hasn't told them about his real status with sana. and eunjung, sometimes felt like she was played by chanhee as well. but still, she can't make herself avoid or stay away from the male
- so whenever sana came to their practice, eunjung would glanced at her and hoping that chanhee wouldn't get too close with her
- chanhee refuse to call eunjung with 'nuna' because he wants her to see him as a man rather than a lil bro
- aggressive eunjung sometimes saying some cheesy pickup lines to chanhee and make him laugh
- eunjung is the first person he'd call whenever he needs someone on his side. in return, he'd prioritize eunjung's call as well. sana is no longer his number one priority
 

the idol
stagename: chanhee

plotline + backup: aeolus + ares

stage persona: the badboy-player type

talent twins: dance : bang chan (yuto), vocal : lee know (shinwon), rap : lee know (kino)

experiences & trainee life: his trainee life... he couldn't say much about that. he worked really hard to improve his skills aside dancing, yet none ever appreciate his effort. they kept saying that they haven't give a chance for him to debut because his skills are still lacking. it was a three years full of frustation. yet even so, they acknowledge his sharp dancing technique and how quick he absorb all the dance teached by trainer. upon this, the company often only paid for demo video for their artist's coreographer, then asked chanhee to learn and teach those artists. but whenever he asked his chance to debut, they always says his skills other than dancing isn't good enough. that way, they kept getting him false hope.
now, after he left the company and joining the other in the attempt to made their own debut, he helped poseidon to make their coreography and help the other member to improve their dancing skills. on the other side, he also practicing hard to boost up his skills in singing and rapping.

trainee years: k.tune ent : 2015 - 2018, independent : 2018 - now

Hi Dea, sweetie! When you said you were excited to apply for this story, I was literally over the moon with joy. You are the sweetest thing!! Thank you so much for taking the time to create an app for me, especially such a great one. You did an outstanding job on Chanhee, and I'm more than happy to review him for you. :)

Chanhee's "introduce yourself" section was so well written, and I loved it. Honestly, I got so much out of his introduction that I felt like I understood him almost immediately. Such a cute introduction! It's so moving that he's determined to debut by giving his everything, including working himself to the bone. Chanhee is such an inspiration! The universe will start to rearrange for him, I just know it.

Ngl, I'm a Stray Kids stan, so I screamed when I saw bang chan as your face claim lol! He's such a cutie lil manly man, and I can't think of a better choice as a FC for Chanhee. Love it lol. And he has naturally curly hair? I love the originality! The basics look fantastic. I think it's awesome that he's learning so many languages too. What a talented boy! I also like that you went with a whole 'strong masculine aura' vibe for Chanhee's appearance and overall look. I think it suits him, but at the same time, it is the opposite of his awkwardly adorable personality. And how DARE you hit us with those dimples!? Chanhee couldn't be cuter, I swear lol! Again, basics are perfect, and no changes need to be made. :)

Chanhee's personality is very well written, and I think you picked a good mix of traits for him. I enjoyed reading the entire section and getting to know just what he's like underneath his talent. He seems like a very chill and relaxed person who goes with the flow, undisturbing the people around him. He meshes well with others because he doesn't try to pry his way into a spot of attention but naturally fits like the piece of a puzzle. I really like his calm aura. He seems like such a nice guy. Despite being so relaxed, you can tell he takes his dream seriously and works hard to prove it by being punctual, showing up to every practice, and giving 110% effort. And aww!!! He's way too selfless and sweet!! Poor Chanhee needs to stop putting others before himself and gain some confidence!

He's so modest about his abilities but honestly just has low self-esteem, which makes me want to hug him lol. THE BOYS WILL BACK YOU UP, CHANHEE!! We stan a modest King. It's official, I love Chanhee and need to protect him lol. I love how caring and compassionate he is for others. Despite wanting to debut so badly, he isn't willing to forget those closest to him, and that's a very endearing trait to have. Chanhee gives me humble idol vibes. Like he's a genuinely kind person with authenticity. He isn't fake nice; he's truly just a lovely person. I feel bad that he's overly-accommodating at times, though. I don't want him to compromise all the time for the sake of others instead of stating his own wants. Poor sweet baby boi! 😭 I like that he's so spontaneous though and has an energetic side like a puppy but can also maintain a collected outlook. That will definitely come in handy in a big group like this. They'll need someone like him who doesn't get overly nervous or too excited. He can keep the peace.

LMAO, I don't even want to imagine Chanhee and Sungmin interacting at the first meeting because those two are so freaking awkward together, and it's hilarious. I think it's sweet that he's endearingly awkward around strangers because honestly, who isn't right? That's pretty realistic to me. Even idols can be anxious of strangers. But he gives me the sense that once he gets past that awkwardness, he is a comfortable person to talk and be yourself around. I don't see Chanhee as the judgmental type whatsoever. I doubt he'd ever purposely judge people. I can't see anyone outright hating him either because he's just too likable lol. If someone hates Chanhee then there is probably something wrong with that person because Chanhee is an angel hahaha. I'M GONNA SLAM THIS BOY DOWN WITH MY FIST OF LOVE BECAUSE HE NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE HIS OWN TALENTS. OMG LOL! I can't believe he has such low self-esteem when he's this skilled! How dare anyone from K. Tune say otherwise! I'm honestly mad that he was a victim of verbal abuse because he doesn't deserve that. They were probably just jealous of how pure he is.

omg, I am dying over this pure af backstory. Chanhee, stop being so cute!! AWW SANA, THANK YOU FOR COMFORTING THIS BOY!! I'm glad she at least tried to help him feel better about singing in front of others. I'm sure it was his nerves getting in the way of his performances rather than lack of talent. Oh my gosh, I am STANNING this friendship because wow, Sana is the sweetest person to him. ASDFASFG AHHH THEIR STREET PERFORMANCE IS SO PRECIOUS!!! I love that that was her idea for him to get over being embarrassed. Literally, the purest thing I've read in a long time. Wow, everyone needs a Sana in their life. This baby boi will show all the haters that they made a huge mistake by ignoring him. CHANHEE IS RECOGNIZED!! STAN. REAL. TALENT.

His trivia all looks excellent, along with his backstory. Nothing needs to be changed here! :) A ballet dancer, huh? You don't see too many male idols with that background, but I love it. Ballet dancers are some of the most talented people. Kai from Exo also took ballet, and now he's the main dancer, so lol. Umm, I wanna see his cute doggo...Koala sounds adorable! DAMN, AND HE CAN SWIM 50 M FREESTYLE!?! Why is he so talented lol! He makes everyone else look like a sad potato. Okay, I'm already becoming obsessed with him, this is bad hahaha. Thank you for giving him a job! I was thrilled to see it on his application. Honestly, I really want to give him some funny and cute moments at the Juice bar.

His relationships/friendships all look great. Again, I'm living for his friendship with Sana, and if he didn't have a love interest, then I would've assumed, along with everyone else, that Sana was his girlfriend lol. I can see why people mistake them for a couple because they're adorable. And I love that they've been friends for so long. Aww, I'm kind of sad Sana gave up her dream to work as a stylist, but I hope she's happy with her choice. OMG, SHE COULD BECOME THE BOYS STYLIST!?! Idk I'm just freaking out over here, ignore me, haha.
YES SUNGMIN AND CHANHEE FRIENDSHIP~! Stan it, lol. You're so right, they do have similar personalities, and I think they would get along well. They are so precious. I'm laughing so hard at the idea of them thinking they can read each other's minds or something, haha. Are they twins!?! OH MY LORD, SUNGMIN IS TOTALLY HIS WINGMAN WITH EUNJUNG!??! I AM SCREAMING INTO THE ABYSS, RN!

Dea. I love you. LOL!! Chanhee is so great, and I had too much fun reading his app. I couldn't BELIEVE you put Eunjung as his love interest either. It is so freaking perfect. I couldn't agree more with everything you've written. Chanhee's crush on her is so pure, and I ship them hard. Chanhee's first thoughts of Eunjung being crazy is so funny. Honestly, same, Chanhee. She does seem crazy af haha. With Chanhee's awkward side, it is difficult for him to interact comfortably with strangers. Still, I can see Eunjung not caring about that and pushing past his boundaries like she would with Sungmin considering the boys have similar personalities. I love their love so much LOL.
YES, EUNJUNG BOOST HIS SELF ESTEEM!! COMPLIMENT THAT BOY! I swear she'd punch anyone who even dared to insult his abilities hahaha. PROTECTION MODE ON! And then we have Sana as his bff.... LOL. I live for their friendship, but I can see why the boys and everyone would assume Chanhee is in a relationship with her. I'm dying over the idea of anyone thinking he's a player LMFAO!! Do they even know Chanhee?! That boy has the confidence of a chicken nugget, there's no way he'd be dating multiple girls at once hahaha. Your whole relationship section is giving me so many ideas, the inspiration keeps coming! (Literally my favorite thing is that he refuses to call Eunjung Noona because he wants her to see him as a 'man' hahaha. cutest thing ever).

His idol section also looks fantastic! The Aeolus plotline is perfect for Chanhee. He has this subtle strength to him that pairs with a crisp sharpness and refreshing aura that I can see working well with his dancing technique. He truly is the embodiment of the wind. I'm not gonna lie, I'm cracking up over his stage persona being the bad boy-player typed because his personality is anything but that hahaha. But I shall support the cutie with his dreams of being a cool bad boy LOL.

Dea, I love you. I'll say it again, haha, your app is wonderful, and I love Chanhee so much!! Thank you for taking the time to create him. I thought all of your hard work deserved a lengthy review of me fangirling over everything lol. It's so heartwarming to know you were excited about my story, and I'm elated someone like you took an interest in applying. Thank you!! Chanhee is accepted! :D
