Her body is petite and quite curvy, her waist is small and flat but people say her 's pretty flat too. 

fashion style

— you can never be overdressed or overeducated

She's got a very gentle, feminine style and blouses are her favourite, but at home she couldn't care less whast she looks like. While chilling at home, her style is laid back but she has a thing for oversized clothing, especially big woolen jumpers - and later in the story, her boyfriend's hoodies. She hates animal print but loves floral print and neutral colours like beige and white, occasoinally baby blues and pinks. When going out, heels and all that are a must too - since she feels she's a little on the short side - anything feminine is good. During special occasoins she likes wearing scarlet red. Her winter wardrobe is a little darker with more neutral coours and jeans and jumpers.

personality

— i use bits and pieces of other personalities to form my own

Some wonder if Dahyun is actually listening to the things they're telling her or if she's zoning out. She walks around with a distant smile on her face, because of her inability to concentrate and her one tack mind she's always drifting off into her own little world. She's bubbly and never seems to take anything seriously, throwing her head back laughing whether the joke was funny or not. At first glance, you'd expect her to be calm and gentle, not playful and a social butterfly. She is also quite flirty and playful, saying shameless and slightly erted things in order to get reactions out of everyone. She is quite easy going, always just going with the flow and never really putting much effort into everything she's doing. Some would mistake her for being lazy but it's actually becuase she hates confrontation and conflict and will do anything to escape it, but she is seen as the middle ground between two parties and when people in her group are arguing because she is able to see from different perspectives becuase of her compassionate nature. She is also quite the people pleaser, who seems to put other people's emotions before her own and forgets herself and really can't say no to people. She doesn't like going out much and her life basically consists of eating, sleeping and singing but that's the way she likes it. She's such a lazy . Change is also not her thing, she likes everything balanced and constant. Stability is what she thrives on, which is why if she meets a new unfamiliar person, she would go running for the hills. It takes a while for her to stop being so shy and awkward and stop hiding behind her other members before she can actually become friends with someone. People also tend to think of her as indecisive because she takes a long time in making decisions. She thinks over all the pros and cons of her options again and again because she is scared that if she picks the wrong decision, everything she's ever worked for will come crashing down. She hates being rushed or restricted and in interviews, she is always sincere and honest. When being controlled by the staff to say and do things she doesn't want to, she will hate it so much but will go along becuase if she doesn't she could risk bringing her entire team down with her.

However, everything changes when she gets on stage on stage. The playful sparkle in her eyes will swap for one of concentration and determination. The truth is she's never had an affinity for studies or anything else. She won't work hard and concentrate unless she's doing something she likes. If you force her to do something she hates, she'll only hate it (and you) the more you try to force her. When it comes to singing she's hardworking and passoinate; singing is all she's ever had. She watches over her members as well as working on improving herself becase she believes they'll go on for a long time and that they're family despite the disputes that they may have and she loves every single member. She's meticulous and always points out what to do or corrects them if they go wrong, this can sometimes annoy or anger her teammates but she only means well. She's not the best at dancing but she enjoys it. She's got a very elegant - kind of like ballet - way of moving when she dances. She's always striving to make herself and her team better - in a way she is a perfectionist - even if it means picking on the tiniest of details. No matter how much she sings, it'll never be enough to satisfy her and she wants to be singing every second of the say. She doesn't mean to be a but if someone can't dance or sing very well or is slightly half hearted abuot it, she'll get in a bad mood. Everyone else is working hard, why can't they? It is only in this time that she will speak up and confront them, she hates injustice and it's not fair to eveyrone else who works hard is one person is not pulling their weight. This works vice versa as she never wants to drag down her team or disappoint anyone. She will usually self loath or feel like if she was to create a scandal or go off tune during a preformance. She has trouble saying her inner feelings and how she feels but this translates into her singing, which helps her sing with more emotions. But sometimes enough is enough. Once she cracks, there's no winning in an argument agaist her. she does so much for other people, she can at least have one moment to blow up, right?

background

— what's past is prologue

Her father is a doctor and her mother a college professor. She always had so much pressure on her to become as great as them and always tried to study hard for them but she realised she coudln't have cared less about physics and geography and whatever else they tortured her with. Her middle school music teacher introduced her to singing and she fell in love with it. She'd never really told her parents that she wanted to become a singer because they were always pressuring her to become a doctor or something, even if she'd talk about music or her singing, they'd always tell her it was just a hobby and could never be a career. They never once came to any of her school concerts or plays even if she begged them and she soon stopped trying to get them to accept it. In high school, she met Chanyeol who was in her class and a trainee at the time and obsessed with music. He helped her improve and cheered her on and they became best friends. With his help, she snuck away and auditioned behind her family's back. When she got accepted, they were really against it but she insisted this is what she wanted to do and threatened to run away. Her parents let her become a trainee because they thought, "she'll come back to her senses soon." Even to this day, her parents are strongly against it, even going as far as sending her brochures for colleges and medical schools through the mail. Sometimes they'd deny and completely disregard the fact that she's going to do music. Everytime they talk on the phone, they're telling her to quit. This effects Dahyun more than she lets on - not that she will let it on at all - but she carries on as normal.>

family

— all happy families are unhappy in their own way

mother — kwon yura // 40 // professor // stubborn, short tempered, charming, ambitious // yura is really against her daughter being  singer, she doesn't think it's a good career path and really wants her to be a doctor - mostly so she can show off to her friends - and is quite materialistic, always having the latest bags and whatnot. they don't talk much now. 

father — kang ho dong // 45 // docotr // workaholic, pefectionist, intellgent, close minded // Heis quite stoic and distant from his daughter because he's always at work but decides if she's happy, so is he. But he's just to eaily influenced by his wife and is unable to communicate his feelings in general. 

friends

— a friend is someone who knows you and still loves you

n/a - no one significant

others

— i love mankind, it's people i can't stand 

n/a

is danni next?

— singing is all I've ever had

focus area — Singing
weakest area — Rapping

what team would your character rather be on? — She honestly doesn't mind. 

TALENT TWIN 01 — Kim Taeyeon
TALENT TWIN 02  — Hyorin

strengths — She is one the best at singing, with a perfect technique and ability to pour her emotions and heart into it, above all else she has passion. She can bring her singing skills to the team and her hard working as well as perfectionist nature so that every one of their stages will be perfect. 
weaknesses — She's not necessarily bad at dancing, she has a very elegant way of moving, but it's hard to keep up with the coreograhpy. Don't even ask her to try rapping because her tongue will most likely not be able to handle it. When she messes up she will go into self loathing mode and it may affect the rest of the team, she also tends to chastise other members if they are not working as hard, but only when it's justified. 

how long have they been training? — 3 years
summary of their training so far — She tried to come and go quietly, she didn't want to draw alot of attention to herself and just wanted to practice her singing but people soon heard about her soon enough, the pretty girl with the amazing voice and she got some trouble from her seniors who'd been there longer when people stated talking about her debut. She'd never treid dancing properly before and despite her missing beats and forgetting coreography most of the time, she does manage to get it right in the end and her movements are elegant and have feeling. Rapping....don't even speak of it. Though she did dabble in a lot of things, her heart only beated for singing.

wHaT are their aspirations? — She wants to experience everything, but most of all she wants to release a solo album or lots of OSTs. and wants to prove herself singingwise. She wants to have a world tour and just be on stage, recieving and giving love to the fans. 

what kind of concept would they like? — She likes trying out everything, has fun doing the girly cutesy concepts (Gee - SNSD, Darling - Girl's Day) or carefree and fresh (SISTAR in general heh) but when it comes to more serious concepts she struggles and though it would be nice to show a different side of herself, she she'd prefer just to have carefree stages. 

park chanyeol (idol)

— Oh sehun (idol)

personality — He;s one ball of sunshine.But with fame comes the pressure of always having to live up to expectatoins. If he's shouted at during practice or just critised in general, he'll wallow in self hate and pout while trying to think of ways to improve himself. He hates it the most when he comes to detest what he used to love so much because of the pressure, music is becoming like a chore to him. Since he's an idol he's bound to be a little cocky and isn't very grounded. He's got his head up in the clouds and is blinded by the bright stage lights, always striving towards perfection. He hates feeling unimportant and is always craving attention. He hates when people touch what he deems 'his'. He's a free spirit who can drag his heels quite hard. He's confident and flirty and never leaves anything half finished. He knows what he has to do to get what he wants and is willing to get a little manipulative if it speeds up the process. However, he's extremely soft hearted and loyal and woul ddo anything to put a smile on the faces of those he loves.

relationship — If she ever needed help or was upset, she would call him and he would come runnning to her. He saw her as someone different because most people in the industry would only be in it for the fame and glamour but she has so much talent and passion, he wanted to protect it os she doesn't come to resent it one day like he does.They like messing around and he has a thing for tesing her. He is overly affectionate but she returns it tenfold. They are always there for each other and support each other no matter how. bad scandals may come out about Chanyeol but Dahyun will always believe him and stand by his side. Whenever he starts hating music and regrets ever choosing his career path, he thinks of her who bring shim back to earth, it's in these moments he'll think he'll go insane and thinks she's all he has left. Hence the reason why he calls her 'da-yah'. Even after her debut everyone knows them as best friends and they don't mind who'se watching or how many eyebrows are raised at their overly friendly friendship. He likes taking her out to the aquarium/amusement park/ dinner/to get bubble tea, whatever, he'll even come over to her dorm when she's too lazy. "It's not a date...unless you want it to be."

meeting — Met in High school, more in the background. They drifted apart when Chanyeol debuted and soon they lost all contact and she got all depressed and started resenting him and whatnot. Though they still called and texted on birthdays and whatever, it still upset her. When she was announced to be in one of the groups in the competition, Chanyeol suddenly storms back into her life with texts of support and "please call me back I missed you." and who is she to refuse him? 

other — Chanyeol tries confessing but she doesn't believe he oculd ever like someone like her so she brushes it off. He carries on dropping the heaviest hints known to man and whatnot. He has the subtlety of a sledgehammer.In the end she confesses and kisses him first even though he technically beat her to it ages ago but he likes it nontheless.
