Character background: Kim JiHyun was born in Busan, South Korea, to two very happy parents.

At Detroit, JiHyun grew up, learning American customs and English language. But what JiHyun experienced the most at Detroit was the hip hop culture; he often witnessed rap and dance battles on the street. But the violence of Detroit made drugs and such disgusting to him. Then, at age twelve, they had to move back. He was enrolled at Chum Dang High School, which featured mathematics the most. JiHyun loved doing Mathematics and Science, and his mother, who was a Lab Scientist, helped him to understand his studies. But the requirement was one year of some kind of art/music. JiHyun protested against, but was enrolled in Music Theory. He found the class extremely easy, but he also began to love it. Although his parents were initially against it, once JiHyun convinced them it was his passion, they supported him wholeheartedly and lovingly, paying for all kinds of private lessons.

TRAITS

Personality: The most controversial guy you’ll ever meet. When you first meet him, he really seems like a heartless soul, but he also cries easily over Korean dramas and owns a ton of cute things. 0_0 So charismatic on stage and never messes up, a perfectionist when practicing, but otherwise seems to find it hard to find his own two feet stable. Someone who loves sunny days on the beach, but otherwise absolutely despises the sun. Loves it when little kids and old people ask for his autograph, but avoids fans his age…

But he is always:

Self-driven and a perfectionist, but otherwise incredibly lazy. Once he finds his passion and once he’s given a task, there’s no looking back. Time doesn’t exist, and neither does food. He just keeps at it. His dedication is probably what saves him from being a 24-7 derp, because when he’s not at it 110%, he’s totally laid back, chilled, and hates to move at all. His room is always a mess of books, CDs, and clothes.

Not a lot of facial expressions, but laughs wholeheartedly and cries easily. His expression 95% of the time is something between totally bored or smirking arrogantly, but when he laughs along with everybody, his laugh is always the loudest, and when he finds something sad, he’s probably the first (and only) guy to cry in the audience or group. On stage, he unconsciously makes a lot of y facial expressions. <3  

Randomly Derpy, but otherwise pretty stone-faced.

So yes, he has his derpy moment, but he rarely gets caught. When he’s surprised, he looks like a big gaping fish! But he rarely gets surprised, so… ^^

Always bro-mancing, but doesn’t want a serious relationship with a girl.

Like a lot of male idols, he finds it easy and nothing serious to smooch a fellow boy member on the lips or wrap his arms around them, but he is undeniably uncaring and awkward with girl members. He respects girls a lot, but he doesn’t care for a serious relationship with a girl yet because he has ridiculously high standards for a girl.

Awkward at first sight. He’s somewhat shy, and rather awkward at first introduction. He either doesn’t make eye contact with you or makes intense eye contact and you feel like your head will catch on fire. Either his handshake is really loose or it’s super tight, so, he tends to avoid strangers.

Fits in well with those older and younger than him, but has a hard time connecting to those his age. He loves kids, and kids love him. He’’s extremely respectful and easy-going with old people, but he isn’t sure what to do with someone his own age. Should he address them formally, or be easy-going? Would it be rude to make a joke right now…? Is he too mean? So usually, he just wears an awkward smile, deals with it as fast as he can, and gets the hell out of there.

Academically Intelligent. Before he wanted to be a musician/idol, his dream was to become a rocket scientist. Thus, he had to work his off at mathematics and sciences to get close to it. Ironically, it wasn’t listening to music so much as the alternative class he had to take, music theory that made him want to do music. Yes, music theory made him interested in music.

He tries to be understanding with people, especially those close to him, but he is impatient. He cannot stand whiny people who don’t do anything about it. He’ll usually tell them to do something or shut the hell up.

You can probably tell by now, he’s a mama-boy. Loves his mommy more than anything, misses her more than anything. Loves her not only because it’s his mom, but because she did everything for him. XD and because she always believed in him.

Other than his determination, academic intelligence, passion for music, he is a normal, headstrong, and very prideful and independent teen.

RELATIONSHIPS

Family background: Father is a marketing agent and mother is a professional violinist. Not the richest, but richer than the average household (because the father is a marketing agent) and socially respected (because the father is a Vice President and mother is a wonderful violinist). The family all love and support each other very much, and JiHyun was lucky enough to grow up in this family.

Family members: [FORMAT: Name; Age; Occupation; Relationship; How they treat your character]

1. Kim Hae Sun; 45; Professional Violinist; Mother; Spoils her child with love and affectionate hugs. Sometimes embarrasses him by slapping his and such, but always there when he needs her. Believes in her son no matter what and is both wise and bright. A very lovely woman who knows the power of emotions and is respectful of others; thus, she is a violinist.
2. Kim Tae Hyun; 46; Vice President of Samsung Corporations, Korean Branch; Supports his son in whatever his son would like to do, but accepts no excuses. A hard-working man who himself is an orphan. Worked his off going to school and getting an education, gaining respect, and rising to the ranks of Vice President. Always encourages his son to do the right thing at the right time and always have his priorities in mind.

Friends:

1. Heechul; 28; Super Junior; Hyung-Dongsaeng; They have a lot of skinship, and have the same sense of humor. Heechul often scolds JiHyun and JiHyun is very teasing towards Heechul hyung, doing aegyo or texting him early in the morning just to annoy him.
2. Jungshin; 20; CN Blue; Friends; Admire each other’s style of music and are very supportive of each other. Always text each other to say Hwaiting~! Before performances and awards. Don’t talk incredibly often, but always stop by each other’s rooms to say hi backstage.
3. Joon; 24; MBLAQ; Best Friends; Although Joon is older, on a day-to-day basis, JiHyun seems to be the hyung in this relationship. Joon constantly does aegyo to JiHyun and JiHyun will shake his head and laugh. Well… the relationship is like this: (except Myungsoo= JiHyun and Sungyeol=Myungsoo)
4. L; 20; Infinite; Best Friends; They can’t look each other in the face without laughing their heads off. They find it easy to talk to each other, admire each other’s determination to succeed as an idol, and both of them have the same taste in girls.
5. Taecyeon; 23; 2pm; Hyung-Dongsaeng; Both are idols who appear strong on stage and are very kind and humorous in real life. Taecyeon kind-of takes care of JiHyun, shaping him up when he gets too unmotivated and giving him advice before every concert. They don’t talk often, but they can easily slip into conversation whenever.
6. Bom; 28; 2NE1; Noona-Dongsaeng; Bom sees JiHyun as a cute little brother, and JiHyun being stupid JiHyun, loves this. Bom always calls JiHyun a baby and JiHyun is forever showing his muscles to her to prove that he is actually a man, and a fine man at that.
7. CL; 21; 2NE1; Noona-Dongsaeng; Less close than Bom and JiHyun but still pretty close, although their relationship is based more on mutual respect of each other’s voices and stage presence than conversation and personalities.

Rivals: [It's okay if you do not want any rivals] [FORMAT: Name; Age; Occupation(Group); How did you become rivals]

1. WooHyun; 21; Infinite; Both have similar ballad voices, so they are always competing against each other. Also, Woohyun finds JiHyun’s aegyo and perfectionist attitude annoying and JiHyun hates Woohyun’s superficial judgmental of people (esp. girls) and over-competitiveness.

TRAINEE

How did you get in? : Audition & Trainee.

Trainee life: As soon as he finished high school at age 17, he auditioned with a ballad, a short break dance segment, and a small rap segment. He placed 4^th out of 2,500 and was accepted into SM Entertainment. At SM Entertainment, he quickly rose up the ranks, but SM was unable to find him a place within a group. His intensity and awkwardness made the SM President hesitant to debut him. Also, JiHyun also usually practiced the type of dance and song that he wanted, and rebelled against the SM President a lot. JiHyun modeled, acted, and often was a back-up at SM, but his refusal to do anything but his own music was a problem at SM. SM kept him away from compositional lessons, wanting JiHyun to conform instead of producing his own music. JiHyun refused. Thus, he was about to be dropped when the YG President asked to transfer him. After 1 year at SM, JiHyun was transferred to YG, where he further expanded his compositional skills and other skills. JiHyun was a lot happier at YG, and although he came close to failing and having to come home (even his parents knew he was about to be kicked out), he was able to succeed through YG in the end.

No. of years as a trainee: 2 years, 7 months.

Experience:

Back-Up Vocalist for DBSK for 5 months (age 17)

Back-Up Vocalist for SHINee for 3 months (age 17)

Back-Up Dancer for SHINee for 3 months (age 17)

On Sm’s Album: SM: The Ballad (age 18)
