Personality—
Haeun was mostly raised by her mother, since she was a housewife. She always thought her daughter to be kind to everyone, even if they were rude to her, she always told her: "If you have to choose between being kind and being right, choose being kind and you will always be right" and Haeun learned to live by that motto, sometimes being too kind. Haeun just got used to apologize a lot, therefore she sometimes says sorry without knowing what she did wrong.
Haeun grew up without many friends because it was hard for her to make them, being the shy girl she was. She has always had a cheerful personality, so even if she didn't have friends to play with, she'd play by herself. Now, when she's able to make a friend, she'll cherish him/her a lot and will always try to make the people close to her as happy as possible.
Sadly, Haeun is one of the most forgetful and clumsy people you'll ever meet. Her parents always nagged her because she'd often forget her lunch or school projects at home. The thing is that Haeun doesn't really pay much attention to her parents because she's always thinking of something else, being in her own perfect world, and her parents hate that.
Haeun has one flaw that she hates about herself, but no matter what she does, cannot change: she's a coward. Be it watching a horror movie, or confronting people or problems, she just panics, she absolutely hates it. That's why she was bullied at school sometimes, because she wouldn't do anything to stop the bullies.
Despite not being the most perfect person in the world, Haeun is a hardworker, just like her mother. Whenever she's up to do something, she won't stop until it's done and she's happy with it; no matter how long it takes to finish it.
Overall, Haeun is a sweet and naive girl who can be a little clueless of her sorroundings, but when she does focus on something, she works hard to get it.

Background—
Haeun was born at St. Helier Hospital in Sutton, a large suburban town on the lower slopes of the North Downs in South West London, England. She was the second daughter of the Kwon family. Her brother Hyunsoo being three years older than her.
Her father owned a prestigious law firm in Sutton, so her family lived a pretty comfortable life. Her mother was a housewife who dedicated all her time in taking care of her children and making sure everything was well.
Haeun did well in school, and even thought she wasn't the best, she never failed any subject; in the afternoons, Haeun would go and hang out with her friends, who would call her 'Annie' since they said it was easier to pronounce than her Korean name and it fit her well.
Later in her life, Haeun discovered K-POP and she fell in love with it. She had always loved to sing but she never thought she would make it as a singer in western countries because she was asian, but she saw an opportunity in becoming a singer in her father's country, Korea.
She talked to her parents about the idea of going there and see if she could become a singer. She had seen that YG was holding auditions the next year and she really wanted to go. At first, her parents didn't aprove, but after countless begging, they agreed.
She went to Korea with a friend that could actually speak the language so that she wouldn't get lost or something. She auditioned for YG in the 2011 auditions held in Seoul. She was very nervous that day, because one; she didn't speak a drop of korean and two; because she could see and hear that there were people there that were tremendously talented.
Haeun sang 'Because of You' by Kelly Clarkson as her audition song and she passed all the rounds, making her one of the few people that were selected to be part of YG in the Seoul audition; she was completely happy.
She returned to England only to go back to Korea three weeks later to start her training. Her father wasn't pleased with the outcome of the situation but couldn't really do anything about it. But when Haeun left, neither of them said goodbye to each other, since they were angry.
And thus, she went to Korea and began her trainee years in order to fulfill her dream, not knowing what the future held for her...
Family—
— father | Im Taejung | 51 | Lawyer | Mr. Im can come off by a cold and sometimes mean person, but that's really just because his job demands him to be like that. Back at home, he's someone quite diferent, as he cares a lot for his children and wife and shows it. He always says he wants the best for his children even if it means that sometimes they won't like it. | Haeun's relationship with her father is not that great. It was good before she suggested going to Seoul and become a singer, but after that, they became distant to each other because that's not what he wanted for her. Now that she's in Seoul, he barely calls, so they rarely talk to each other.
— mother | Lowsley Mary| 50| Housewife | Haeun's mom is a very kind person, she tries not to be mean as much as she can and she's always trying to make the people around her feel happy since she doesn't really like seeing people sad. Even thought she's a housewife, she's very hardworking at what she does; always making sure there's food on the table and that the house is clean. |Haeun and her mom are in pretty good terms. Even thought her mother didn't really want her to become a singer, she still supported her all the way and was very happy to know she had passed the auditions. Haeun's mom calls her at least thrice a week and visits her at least twice a year to see how she's doing.
— brother | Im Hyunsoo| 23| Lawyer | Hyunsoo used to be very playful and would make lots of jokes and pranks, but as he grew up he became a more serious person, but still nice to be with. Since he just graduated from college, he's very focused on his work, so that he becomes a great lawyer just like the father he admires so much.|Hyunsoo and Haeun get along most of the time. They have a pretty average brother-sister relationship, they fight over the stupidiest things and then a moment later, they'll get along once again. Since his brother is now working, he can't visit Haeun, but they Skype from time to time.

Love Interest— Lee Hongbin [Zhang Yixing (Lay)]
Age— 21
Group— VIXX
Personality—
There's no specific word to describe Hongbin, he's just...Special. When you meet him at first, he's super quiet and awkward, he'll just talk to you if completely necesary, so don't expect much from him if you're not friends. Also, he's super awkward with girls, so if you're a girl, it'll be even more hard for him to aproach you.
Once he opens up though, it's a complete different story: He's a very goofy guy that loves skinship, loves to make people laugh and is a complete sweetheart. Honbin gets easily excited, therefore he's happy most of the time. He's a very loving guy who likes to treat everyone in a nice way.
Hongin loves to smile and to make people smile as well, also, he's very calm and will help to solve any situation as peacefully as possible, without anyone getting harmed. He's also a very hardorking person and he tries his best to make everything as perfectly as possible.
When he likes a girl he tries to get her attention as much as possible, but not in a loud or scandalous way, but with little details here and there, so that she feels special and not just like any other girl.
When it comes to Haeun, he's very protective of her, and whenever she's sick with cough or something similar, he gets very worried, thinking that her asthma may strike.
First Meeting—
Haeun and Hongbin met after 4REAL debuted. Hongbin was a special MC for a music show they were in. Haeunwas obviously excited because she always thought Honbin was handsome and she'd finally be able to catch a climpse of him in real life.
When 4REAL finished performing and were returning to their dressing room, Haeun decided to stop and take a selca of the back of the stage, because why not? When she finished, she noticed the rest weren't there anymore and she didn't really pay attention to where the dressing rooms were.
She was about to panic when someone tapped her shoulder. She turned around and found a staff member asking if everything was okay. She asked for directions and headed straight to where the man told her.
Just when she was about to arrive to her destination, she saw him, walking along one of s. She just stood there, dazed. She thought he looked even more handsome in person than on TV.
As Hongbin and the other VIXX member walked past her, she bowed and greeted them in the most awkward way possible. They greeted her back and continued their way. She sighed in relief as they left, but just when she had started walking, someone ran into her from behind.
She turned around and found Hyuk, the other VIXX member. She asked him if he needed anything and he nodded. "You see, hyung said that you were very pretty and wanted to meet you" She just stood there, confused. "He did?" She really couldn't believe her VIXX bias wanted her number. "Not really, but I know he will. So give me your number, so I can give it to him later when he says so" She gave him the number, still confused of the situation. Hyuk left as quick as he arrived and left Haeun in a daze once again.
She came back into the dressing room and told the rest of the members what had happened, still not believing it herself.
The next day, she recieved a text from an unknown number that said:
"Hi... This is VIXX Hongbin. We kind of met yesterday? This may sound awkward but my groupmates are forcing me to do it. (⌒_⌒;)
I really thought you were cute, let's hang out sometime, okay? (｡≍ฺ‿ฺ≍ฺ)"
And that was the start of their "friendship".
Interactions—
Hongbin and Haeun are very awkward around each other, but not because they're not close, but because they both like each other. Actually, ever since that time when he texted her to hang out, they started texting each other almost every day, since because they're both very busy, they can't see each other. They'd sometimes do videocalls, but that's not very common.
Hongbin is always trying to make Haeun smile, whether it is by saying compliments to her or by making her laugh.
Like stated before, whenever they meet in person, they're pretty awkward in a cute way, like, he stutters when he speaks and she just blushes a lot, making people tease them because of that. They're friends also call them the 'Smiley Couple', even 'cause thought they're not dating, but they're always smiling at each other.
While it's quite obvious that they like each other, none of them has had the courage to confess.
Love Rival— Kang Seungyoon
Age— 20
Group— WINNER
Personality—
Seungyoon is seriously one of the nicest and sweetest guys you'll ever meet. He worries for the people close to him and tries to be as helpful as he can.
Seungyoon is the kind of guy who makes friends pretty easily, as he has an outgoing personality. He has no problem starting a conversation with a stranger and becoming their friend.
Seungyoon is very insistent on pretty much everything he does, and when he sets his mind on doing something, he won't rest until he has achieved it.
He can also come off as flirty, as he loves to compliment girls, but he's actually just being nice, well, at least that's what he says.
He's a free spirit that loves to have fun and hang out with his friends, he says he has a pretty average personality, but his friends say that girls love him and always fall for him and that "average" personality. well, except Haeun, she just loves Hongbin to be honest.
First Meeting—
Seungyoon and Haeun joined the agency on the same year, but they couldn't really talk to each other until a few months later due to Haeun's lack of knowledge on the korean language.
One time, Seungyoon aproached her to say hello, since he saw her being lonely. She answered back, but that was it. When he tried to start a conversation, she just stared blankly at him. When he finished talking, she tried to tell him that she didn't speak Korean, and he somehow understood.
They were like Tarzan and Jane, and sadly, Haeun was Tarzan. The whole following conversation was pretty awkward because they could barely understand each other, but thanks to Seungyoon, she learnt korean faster as they always practiced after that thay, becoming very good friends.
Interactions—
Haeun just sees Seungyoon as her younger brother, but Seungyoon doesn't feel the same way. You could say he has a once-sided crush on Haeun? Yeah, that'd be the best way to describe their relationship.
Seungyoon is so deep in the frienzone it's not even funny, well, at least not for him, but it kind of is to everybody else. Whenever he gets the chance, he tries to flirt with Haeun, just to miserably fail. If they're friends are around, they'll probably make fun of him once she leaves.
Funny thing is that Haeun was actually going to give Seungyoon a chance just before she met Hongbin, but then it all changed when she met him. Even though Haeun has told Seungyoon about her feelings for Hongbin, he secretly refuses to give up on her.
Stage Name— Anne
Persona— Clueless Flower
Position— Lead Vocalist, Lead Dancer [Main Rapper, Vocalist, Dancer]
Fanclub Name— Haeunsters (Her name Haeun + Gangsters /i'm seriously bad at these things/)
Fanclub Colour— #ff6666
Training Years—
— YG Entertainment (3 years)
Trainee Life—
Since Haeun couldn't speak a single word in Korean, it was very hard for her at first. Luckily, YG signed her up for korean lessons as soon as she signed with the agency. Seeing that Haeun didn't speak their languange, she didn't have many korean friends and they'd sometimes bully her, pushing her around and telling her to go back home and leave Korea to koreans... wich was kind of lame, since her ethnicity was korean.
After all the bullying, she decided not to talk to the rest of the trainees, she just quietly practiced and tried to ignore any hateful comment she'd recieve.
One time, she heard a few trainees speaking in english, and that's when she suddenly just said 'Hi' to them. They were friendly enough to greet her, and started making conversation with her, obviously understanding what she had been trough.
Once she found her group of friends, it wasn't that difficult to be in Korea anymore. And after she started improving with the languange, everything was easier.
As for the training part, she'd practice very hard every day, trying to improve her dance skills who were close to horrible. After all the efforts, she was finally able to dance decently, but still had a hard time learning the difficult steps. When it came to singing, the training wasn't so intense, because her voice was decent, she just needed to fix some details here and there, but she still had to practice everyday.
