the ORIGIN.
BACKGROUND » Youngsook grew up with music. Both of her parents worked as music teachers for a nearby school. She was born in Ulsan, South Korea in a pretty wealthy family. She was a spoiled only child for most of her life. When she was 7 her mom wanted her to learn piano so she started taking classes to make her mom happy. She instantly took a liking to playing music and asked her parents if she could starts taking guitar classes as well. They said yes and she started guitar classes as well.
In school she was the popular girl who everyone liked. She got great grades and loved the attention from all her classmates. The university she went to was Ulsan and she graduated the school of music. When she was 16 and on her first year of university she decided to go to an audition for Jellyfish. She didn't expect to get in but she did. Jellyfish took a liking to her and offered her a trainee place. She asked her parents if she could join and they said yes.
PERSONALITY »
Off camera:
Let's start with the bad shall we? Youngsook seems kinda like a and she can seem kinda cold when you don't know her. It's not because she's shy it's just because she has resting face making her face seem y when she isn't smiling. Her way of dressing in dark colors can also make her seem a bit distant. She's quite blunt and says whatever she thinks without filter often making people kind of surprised by what she says. She's kind of stubborn and wants to be right most of the time.
Now to the good stuff. Youngsook is mostly because of her age quite mature and responsible and she likes to be charge. This makes her good as a leader. She's very reliable and trustworthy and actually enjoys taking care of others. When you get to know her she's a super sweet girl who is very loyal to her friends and would do almost anything for someone she loves.
On camera:
On camera she likes to act y and actually enojys being called y. It isn't like her to be dorky and whenever any of the members does aegyo, acts cute or are dorky she will just shake her head and laugh.

THE STORY.
THE PAST » You always hear about trainees having it super hard but it wasn't like that for Youngsook. Because of her very young age everyone took great care of her and treated her as if she was their little sister. Of course the triners were hard on her because she wasn't the best singer, not a very good dancer and she couldn't rap what so ever (Mainly the reason behind her very long training period) As she got older she started treating the younger trainees as her little siblings. Everyone seemed to like her making it very easy for her. Nothing did really happen during ehr trainee years. She got a boyfriend when she was 17, but they broke up when she was 19.
EXPERIENCES »
- She graduated the school of music in Ulsan where she went to a few singing competitions
- there was talk of her getting to debut earlier but nothing was ever released to the public
THE REASON » AVE was her last chance to actually do something with all the training she got. She thought all the training would've been a waste if she didn't get to do anything with it so she decided to give it a shot and see
poSITION » Leader, vocalist
STAGE NAME » Baekyoung | She didn't just want to use her name so she decided to go for something else. It ended up being Baekyoung (Sounds kinda like Baekhyun xD EXO reference. It was actually a friend of mine who came up with it xD)
STAGE pERSONA » Fallen/dark angel | I like to call her that xD I though bad girl or ice princess would be too... Plain and overused xD She seems badass on the outside (Kinda like a dark or fallen angel) but on the inside she's super sweet kinda like an angel
SINGING TWIN » Miss A Jia
DANCING TWIN » SNSD Tiffany
RAPPING TWIN » N/A
the one and only.
love interest » Lee Minhyuk
backup love interest » Shin Dong Geum (Peniel)
personality » Everyone knows all of BTOB are weird and crazy. Minhyuk is no different. He's just weird in a diva-ish way. He acts like a diva but in a weird way. He's funny but lovable. No matter if he's on or off camera he acts goofy and weird but when he's on camera he sometimes likes to show his y side. Minhyuk enojys working out but dosen't show off his great body very much.
FIRST MEETING » They met at a party for Big Byung for when they debuted (Before the official debut of AVE) where Hyuk had invited Youngsook and the rest of AVE and Sungjae had invited Minhyuk and the rest of BTOB. They had both gotten some to drink and ended up talking with eachother. None of them had much filter because of the drinks they had gotten so they ended up telling eachother stuff you normally wouldn't when you firstly meet someone. During the night they ended up exchanging phone numbers.
love story » After their first meeting they texted eachother but they didn't talk much in real life. None of them could remember much of what they told eachother on their first meeting which was probably good. They kept talking and growing closer and at AVE's debut party they both ended up getting a bit too drunk and ended up kissing. None of them could remeber it the next day but Youngsook's members could and told Youngsook what had happened. They ended up being super awkward until Minhyuk told Youngsook that he actually liked her and asked her out. I would like them to end up together but I'll leave that up to you xD You can make them boyfriend and girlfriend or just friends with benefits depending or whatever you want...
RELATIONSHIP » They're both pretty experienced when it comes to dating but when they're together they become like 14 year old teenagers who have never dated before. Always holding hands and kissing (Much to the dislike of both their members) Whenever they can't see eachother they text so they both keep their phones close to them.
