Appearence: Wang YiYi :: gallery 1  2

Back-up appearence: Yoo Hyun Jin :: gallery 1  2

Height: 172 cm

Weight: 60 kg

Style:

Her fashion style is quite natural. Even though she cares so much about her skin, face, and hair, she loves to dress naturally. She hates too girly dresses, but also hates too boyish jeans. In spring, she loves to wear light clothes, maybe some skirts and stuff (1  2  3). In summer, she prefers wearing T-shirts so that she can comfortably move in the hot weather (1  2). But also, she has some kinda style when she'd going on malls, cafes, etc. (link). She has her typical fedora hat that she wears as her sunshade, and she also wears black or brown sunglasses as her disguise from fans. In the winter or any cold weathers, she usually wears hoodies, sweaters, jackets, and cardigans (1  2  3). She also wears jeans and boots for extra warmth. Her favourite cardigan is a grey one, with laces throughout the collars.

When she's training in the practice room, she prefers wearing loose clothes so she can dance and move freely (1  2). In her dorms, again, natural. She just wears normal clothes (1  2) and relax (link). Whenever it gets to airport fashion, she loves wearing cardigans, vests, and blazers (1  2  3). Feminine or formal events? She's the queen. She has tons of dress styles, either casual, formal, or semi-formal (like dates, etc.). She usually prefers the dresses with flowy skirts, but let's see some STYLE of hers~~ 1  2  3  4. Her hair style? Mostly black, brunette, or blonde. She really cares about her hair, she doesn't like it when it's too curly. She also dislikes two ponytails. When  she was little, she was bored in class so she's pick up a small piece of her hair and twist it into a braid. She doesn't like-- rephrase: HATES very thick makeup. She's just addicted to nature, so overall, she has a natural mature style.

Appearence description:

She has an S line in which her brother often teases her about. She was born a with dark brown hair, but because she didn't like it, she dyed it pitch black in the age of 12, and it's been like that ever since. Her hair is straight, with slight wavy ends and the length down to her chest. Her skin tone is apricot (ø), the same as her father's. She had a birthmark on her left shoulder (ø the one on her chest is the birthmark). She has normal piercings in each ear, where she wears earrings made of pink diamond (ø). She wears a necklace with a white crystal pendant (ø). Her eye colors are light brown (ø). She has a long straight nose, and medium-sized eyes. She once had dimples when she was young, but slowly ceased when she turned 9.

 

P S I C O L O G I C A L  I N F O R M A T I O N

Personality: (applicant's note: important parts in bold)

ATTENTIVE ⇒ She is a very attentive girl. Whenever she's in her class, it's very hard for the other students to gain her attention. Also, when she's assigned to do something, she'd always work on it until it's completely finished. She is a very hard-working girl that wants the best for her and her friends. When it comes to training archery with her father or cousin, she'd listen well and learn fast. She is a very good listener, and she is fast to understand things. She was once avoided by most students because of how she's like the 'teacher's pet', always caring and being a good student. She was once nearly called the bookworm of the school when she was 5.

BALANCED ⇒ Lin is a very thoughtful girl, she always cares about her family and friends. She's like a mother to them, caring and sweet. But also, she's ambitious. She is passionate and has a strong will in success. Though, she can handle stress easily, she is a calm type of girl. When her rival loses, she often goes up to her/him, takes a deep breath to calm her anger, and often says "Don't you dare hell come near me again." to threaten him/her, then turns her back on him/her and struts off. She is, overall, a bit of a sensitive person.

FLEXIBLE ⇒ Always making friends, she can suit in any personality her friends have. She is a bit of a bipolar girl. She worries about something, staying silent for a minute. But when her friend suddenly comes over and tells her a joke, she'd get talkative and laugh all the time. But be careful; she's not an easy person to cheer up. Though, she is friendly and kind. She can understand what her friends need, or feel, or even their problems. Although, she isn't really used to boys' personality, as how mature she is and how often she goes out with only female friends while the others hang out with both male and female.

AGGRESSIVE ⇒ Sometimes, when it gets to fights, Lin just couldn't stand it. She'd yell "GUYS! ENOUGH! NO MORE FIGHTING!" whenever two guys fight over something, either it was a big problem or a small one. The harder people fight, the more aggressive she is. She kinda uses her rage to stop the fight. She is a very skilled fighter, also trained to fight well in archery. She hits precisely in the bullseye, which made her opponents slightly terrified of her. And plus, when she makes an angered face, her facial features really look like Kungfu Panda's Master Tigress, and only her close ones can calm her down.

GLARING PRINCESS ⇒ She often glares at people, especially the ones she hate or the ones who threaten her and her friends. If people say looks could kill, the person she glared at would be deader than dead by then. When some boys, or any flirty boys casually walk and call her name, she'd return and threaten them with a glare, as if her eyes say "Don't you come closer or I'll kill you." In other cases, when one of her friends get threatened by someone, she'd glare as if her eyes said "If you're gonna mess with him/her, you'll have to get through me first". When she's pissed off and someone comes over to her, she'd glare at the person, signing him/her to leave her alone. She often has a glaring contest with her rival before she starts fighting. She was like an ice princess to the queenkas in her schools. Hence, only some who truly understand her would be her friends. But she isn't all a glaring princess. In some times, you could see a slight twinkle in her eyes, which was the same feature that her brother had.

COMPETITIVE-PERFECTIONIST ⇒ She is a girl who loves challenges. New tricks? New lessons? New rivals? Bring it on! She's always wanted to strive for first place, thus becoming very perfectionist in her singing and dancing skills. She always trained harder and longer than her brother does. She doesn't stop until she's 100% sure that she's able to beat her rival. She would even ask her brother to accompany her. So be aware of her... She might be a strict trainer to you someday.

ROMANTIC ⇒ She had always been desperate for romance. She had been writing romance poems and songs since she was little. It was like she's Anna in Frozen, but not as naïve. She had been a fan on romance stories such as Romeo and Juliet, Swan Lake, the movie Another Cinderella Story, etc. She likes small skinships like touching hands, accidentally bumping on to each other, etc. It makes her blush every time it happens. But her one dream is to find true love.

↪ When she's sad, she'd become a mute. If you keep asking her "What's wrong?" "Why are you frowning?" "Did something happen?", she'll break into tears. But slowly, though, it's not like she's gonna sob and cry on your shoulder. Probably a drip or two of her tear would roll down on her cheeks. Plus, she's not an easy person to cheer up.
↪ When she's angry, she'd become a mute, clench her fists, make an inaudible growl, then finally she'll burst out like a raging lion
↪ When she's stressed or confused or don't know what to do, she'd pace all around the room, head facing the ceiling, muttering stuff. She keeps doing that until someone asks her "Lindsay, what's wrong?" Only then she'll let out a deep sigh and finally sit down, gaze on the floor, and replies with a soft quiet voice "I don't know. I really, really don't know." which refers to not knowing what to do or what choice to make
↪ When she's shy, she'd stutter and look down a lot, sometimes blushing in embarrassment
↪ When she's lying, she'd send a death glare to the person right in the eyes and her tone would get higher a bit.

 

B A C K G R O U N D  I N F O R M A T I O N

Life Background:

She was born in Beijing, she was the last of the two children of the Lu Family. She made lots of friends, they loved to play and sing together. When she was 5, her 14-year-old cousin returned from America and taught her English, though her brother had trouble learning the language. Lin would always sing with her brother as her mother composed a few duets for them to sing together. She had always dreamed to be a famous singer when she grows up, and begs her parents to help her reach for her dreams. When she was 6, her parents enrolled her into ballet, jazz, and hip-hop lessons. When she was 7, her parents enrolled the siblings into singing classes, and the teachers were impressed with her sweet voice, but were quite shocked of her cold personality. When she was 11, her uncle started to teach her archery, and she loved it. She trained harder and harder with her brother. Her cousin had to get back to USA when she turned 14 to continue his studies. Time passed by and they had to move to Korea at the age of 17 (her age) and 19 (her bro's age) in a boarding school event. Then her brother got scouted when they were shopping in Myeondong with a couple of his friends...

Family:

  • Lu Da Wei / Father / 53 / Violinist and guitarist, conductor / Playful, scared of heights, hard-working, romantic / He works with his wife a.k.a. Lin's mom to compose songs and play them. He and the siblings often play together at the evening and watch sunsets together. The sunset had always been a memory of Lin's. He prefers Lin's brother over her. Even so, he and their mom would always keep in touch with them after they had moved to Korea.
  • Lilliana Zhang / Mother / 48 / Pianist, composer / Perfectionist, fearless, leader-like, slightly aggressive / She teaches Lin piano and would always sing her to sleep when she was young. She prefers Lin over her brother.
  • Lu Han / Brother / 24 / Idol, member of EXO / Manly, protective, caring, a bit shy / He was always there for her when she's in trouble. They like to call each other 'Deer gege' and 'Fawn/Elsa mei mei'. Sometimes, Lin would like to imitate Xiumin when he calls Luhan 'Lu ge~!'
  • Jason Lu / Cousin / 31 / Music teacher in USA / Playful, caring, hard-working, cheerful / He taught her English and always kept in touch with the siblings.
  • Francis Lu / Uncle / 55 / Retired sports teacher in USA, currently composing songs with Lilliana / leader-like, caring, patient, athletic / He taught her archery and keeps in touch with the siblings through Jason.

Trainee Background:

A year after Luhan got accepted into S.M. Entertainment, she decided to pursue her dream and chase after her brother. She entered S.M.Ent's audition in Seoul, with the category 'Singer'. She was so nervous, of course. She played with her own fingers as she waited for her turn. She practised her song, made sure she hit the notes precisely and practised her pronounciation. What surprised her was that Luhan actually skipped his trainee schedule and visited her at the audition venue. He cheered her up and supported her, wishing her the best luck. When it was time for her to sing, she glanced at her white necklace -that her family gave her as a birthday present when she turned 5- and prayed for the best. She faced the judges and started to sing an acapella of SNSD's 'Into the New World'. She sang the song with all her heart, and she expressed it on her facial expressions really well. The judges were impressed by her sweet voice. The judges then thanked her for auditioning and wished her luck, in which she smiled, bowed and thanked them in response before walking out of the room. A few days later, she received an e-mail that she got accepted, passing the audition. Luhan congratulated her for this, sending a bouquet of roses and camellias to her apartment room since he can't visit because of his trainee schedules.

Her trainee life wasn't quite enjoyable at first. She was bullied by the Korean female trainees and some of the male trainees. But once they knew that she was sister of Luhan who was their friend, they relented on her and stopped bullying her. She met some of the SNSD members and BoA during the trainee periods, and they were impressed when she sang and played the piano. When her brother debuted, she kept training and training harder, just to make her dream come true and reunite with her brother on-stage. She then heard of S.M.Ent making another girl group which will be the counterpart of EXO. They thought that since she was Luhan's sister, she will be the counterpart of her own brother. Knowing this, Luhan turned down a few advertisements and a role in a Chinese drama just to train his little sister. And proudly, he made it when she debuted with the girl group named 'Athena'. 

Trainee Years: 4 years

 

D E B U T  I N F O R M A T I O N

Stage name: Lin

Position: Lead Vocalist, Lead Dancer (Athena-M)

Persona: Second Elsa (because her cold personality and her singing abilities); Fawn (since the 'deer' title was taken by her brother, she thought 'fawn' would be more young and feminine)

Fanclub name: Fawns (styled as 'faωns')

Skills:

:: Singing

She sings with a sweet soothing voice. When she sings, it's like a mixture of Jessica's and Seohyun's voices. But mostly, her voice sounds like Zhang LiYin's when she sang the song 'Breath (Chinese Ver.)'. She often sings ballads and the bridge parts. It seemed like her voice sounds like Luhan's when she's singing boy group songs.

:: Dancing

She dances hip-hop, jazz, and a bit of popping, but she also dances feminine ones like ballet. She loves to dance SNSD's 'I Got A Boy', 'The Boys', f(x)'s 'Electric Shock' and 'RumPumPumPum'. She would prefer y moves than girly moves, but she would give it a try on girly ones (explained in the personality that she loves challenges). She would like to make a special stage of ballet one day when they have their own concert.

:: Rapping?

No. Not a chance. She tried once; she always had her tounge twisted. She's not really good at tongue twisters either.

:: Acting

She had always acted with her brother when she was little, and she entered her elementary school's musical as the lead female character. She appeared at EXO's Wolf and Growl Drama MV (it all started when Luhan dragged her into the set and the director casted her to be the main female). She said that it went a bit well since she was Luhan's little sister, after all: why wouldn't Luhan love his own sister? But she also said that it was awkward standing in Kai's arms and having him kissing her cheek for the teaser scene. But because of her tight trainee schedule, she couldn't make it until the end of the shoot so the producers replaced her for Yoon SoHee. The kissing scene was also replaced with Yoon Sohee so Lin felt disappointed that her first kiss was stolen by a guy she didn't actually love. Luhan, getting the basics of loving a girl, continued the drama with a success thanks to Lin. She also made a cameo in EXO's Miracles in December MV as the girl that Sehun was staring at (same thing happened on how she got casted).

SOCIAL INFORMATION

Love interest: Wu 'Kris' YiFan

Status: Crushing on each other

Story: They first met when she was training with Luhan in the music studio, when Kris suddenly entered the room. Their eyes met the moment after he opened the door; her heart started to beat faster, blood rushed into her face, her ears turned red. His reaction was the exact same, though less noticeable. Kris asked if the siblings were done training since their vocal training period was over. This snapped her our of her trance and she left the studio with Luhan. The second meeting was when Lin was walking towards the dance room with her equipment bag in her hand and a cup of caramel macchiato on the other. She finished her macchiato and went to throw it into the garbage can. The moment she turned her back, she bumped into a tall auburn-haired guy and accidentally dropped her bag. They immediately apologized and crouched down to pick it up. When they did, their fingers touched and they raised their heads, that was when they recognize each other. At first Kris mistook her for Luhan's girlfriend, as S.M. had prohibited trainees from dating. She explained that she was Luhan's sister, which relieved him. They got up on their feet after Lin picked up her bag. They introduced themselves... rather awkwardly. Little that they knew, Luhan was spying on them, being the protective brother of Lin. When EXO debuted, they still meet up in the dance rooms or in the cafeteria. Lin would also sometimes visit their dorm to visit Luhan, stealing a glance/stare at Kris whenever Luhan's not looking. As time passes, their feelings for each other grows. Luhan notices this (at a moment where Kris gets jealous when Kai cheek-kissed Lin), and warns Lin not to fall in love easily, for she might get hurt for herself.

Bestfriends:
:: Zhang YiXing (Lay) (4/5) / EXO(-M) / Met on trainee period (introduced by Luhan). A hard-working passionate yet forgetful guy who loves music and dancing. They often meet up at the music room and play piano together, sing together, etc. She usually seeks counsel to him when Luhan or Suho's not around.

:: Wu YiFan (Kris) (5/5) / EXO(-M) / Met on trainee period (interactions, etc. explained above)

:: Seohyun / SNSD (5/5) / Met on Lin's trainee period when SNSD were having dance practice. She is an upright, innocent, and sweet health-freak maknae of SNSD. She often mentors Lin on her singing skills. They often sit together at S.M. Building's cafeteria and eat lunch together.

Friends:
:: Lee Sung Jong (3/5) / Infinite / First met during Athena's first stage on Music Bank/Inkigayo/M!CountDown (idk you can choose one of them). He is the maknae of Infinite known for his feminine features (which reminded her of Luhan). Even so, he hates it when people call him cute or when one tells him to do aegyo. Lin usually taunts him with this which pisses him off, but he still tolerates her since he's her fanboy (explained below.)

:: All of EXO, frankly (3/5) / A group of 12 dorky cute guys with each a different talent. They were friends since she was Luhan's little sister. They were always there to cheer her up when she's down.

Rival:

:: none, if you're okay with it

Others:

Fanboys:

:: Lee Taemin (3/5) / SHINee / He sometimes creeps up on her in the music studio, sneaking to fanboy on her
:: Jeno (3/5) / S.M.Rookies / He interacts a lot with her when they were trainees
:: Lee Sungjong (3/5) / Infinite / He fanboys on her in interviews and music shows (Music Bank, Inkigayo, M!CountDown, etc.)

 

Role Model:

:: Kwon BoA (3/5) / Soloist / She admires her dancing and singing skills as well as her acting skills. She had been a fan of her American movie "Make Your Move 3D" where she showcases her dancing skills and her acting skills. They met for a moment after Lin's audition before BoA had to leave for her schedules. She had been Lin's mentor in dancing and singing. Lin thinks that she is a passionate and energetic woman.

Comments: OMAGAH I've been looking for an apply fic like this the whole time! Like a counterpart of EXO with the exact same position and I love the goddess Athena~ I'm a fan of Athena and EXO, seriously. I think Lin's suitable for the group as she is Luhan's sister and I thought she would be his counterpart, it would be easier for Luhan to teach her. About the Wolf and Growl drama MV, it just makes sense that Luhan would love his sister like how he will love his girlfriend, right? And I didn't use the ulzzangs from the list although I made Yoo Hyun Jin her backup ulzzang. I just thought YiYi would suit her personality and that her eyes look deer-y like Luhan's. Is it okay if I don't have any rival? I think it would be easier for you to write less rivals and hatred. As explained in the personality, she dislikes wars and fights, which is a bit like Athena herself. Athena dislikes fighting without a reasonable purpose, which makes her goddess of strategy. I hope you like LinXi and I hope you can use her in the group! Good luck with the story! Oh and as for the password, it's a cover of EXO's songs that's in English Acoustic ver. You should listen to her covers it's AMAZING. The video can only be played in PC or computers, so... yeah. Sorry about that. But you know the song for sure... Again, good luck! Hope you like her! Her name's LinXi because it's the Chinese name for the name 'Lindsay', not LiXin. LiXin would mean a totally different name. But if you wanna call her that, you can use it in the story when one of the members teases her.

Haha, good idea on my mistake. Linxi is even prettier than Lixin. Oh, smart of you about the mv thing. Thanks for fixing and I still love Linxi~

Oh deer (lol), I really love Lixin. I think she fits the group and gee I love the goddess Athena too. You're right, Lixin is kinda like Athena in some traits, like she doesn't like fights without an important purpose. I love how she loves archery. I love archery too (though I never tried it orz). Overall, the personality is not mary-sueish (orz) and I think you blended her traits without differencing the negative and positive, which I appreaciate. Lol, Elsa. Fawn is soooo cute!
I think YiYi fits Lixin, but that Yoo Hyunjin fits the group better. I might think about it. But the friends' section is destinated only for people outside SM, since all SM (especially EXO) is close to the girls and the bestfriends is only to distinguish people who are extremely close. And about the thing of participating in EXO's mvs, it's true that Lixin would fit the mvs better than other people who apply for it, since she's Luhan's sister, but I'm trying to make this minimally realistic and Yoon Sohee is credited as the MV's lead female, so, I would ask you to fix that.
Other than that, your application is very nice. I will post the review, but probably it will be something like my comment, so it might not be interesting to read. I love Lin, can I call her Lixin? It fits her better and it's a beautiful name. BTW I heard the covers and they're amazing. She has a beautiful voice. Thanks for applying~
