personality

{★} Eunjung, as she was a social butterfly in the USA, she brought this personality of hers in Korea. She's natural born friendly as she loves to be close with other people as she grew up with no siblings. She's very accomodating and warm that's why people had always been drawn to her. She's not afraid to be faced with a lot of people and she loves spending time with the people she loves. She will not hesitate on meeting new friends as she always loved to meet others. Another personality of hers that people had always thought as to be her charm is being witty. Eunjung would always end up thinking of clever things to say that her friends or even strangers would find really funny and smart at the same time. She can quickly think of a funny remark that usually entertains other people and because of that, she earns the love of everyone. With that being said, Eunjung's actually a smart lady. She can quickly understand a situation and as much as possible, she'd think of a solution to every challenge she may face. She always tries her best to be logical with every deisions she make as she had learned when she was younger that impulsive ones can sometimes lead to downfall. Eunjung's a caring person too, often wanting to aid with other people's needs. She's naturally warm-hearted and she's not afraid to show care for anyone because that may be her soft spot too. She'll do her best to attend to everyone's needs before herself.

Even though she may look like nothing can destory her, Eunjung is exactly the opposite of that. She easily displays her emotions. If she feels happy, she'll eventually smile or laugh. But if someone made her sad, she'd also show that. It's not difficult to make her cry either. She could even cry with the littlest things that would usually others find amusing of her. Eunjung is also the kind of person who you'll find uncertain of. She can do things or act things that other people wouldn't be able to see that she'll do something. She's very unpredictable and that's what others like about her as well. She can be spontaneous if she wanted to.

As no one is perfect in this world, Eunjung has no escape with that. Despite being such an elegant young lady, Eunjung can be really hard-headed. Sometimes, she would just agree with what someone's saying just to finish their argument and what not but deep in her mind, she doesn't change her opinions. Especially to her parents, she can be so stubborn. It would be hard to talk to her if she's acting one because once she made the decision, that's it. Nothing can sway her. Although she can be headstrong, Eunjung tends to be more passive. She'd rather not argue (well, except when she really needs to.) and just accept what others are telling. She hates debates, only if it's about facts or natural phenomenon, then she'll state her opinions. But if it's problems with other people, she would just stay quiet. If they bully her, let them be. That's what she always thinks. Sometimes, thinking too much will lead her to be aloof with everyone. Eunjung always needed space to breathe. Once she feels trapped, it becomes difficult for her and so she'd stay away from what drama's happening around her and she'll just act cool and distant towards everybody. Also because of her passiveness, Eunjung doesn't vent out her anger very much which causes her to bottle it inside her heart. This would usually develop to resentment and she could actually hold a grudge towards another person if he/she did something awful to her. She always expects people to be kind towards her as she is to others too.

background

{★} On a Christmas Day in 1993, Im Eunjung was born in California, USA. She grew up in a loving family and she didn't have any siblings. Both of her parents were Koreans but both have been living in the USA for a long time already. At a young age, Eunjung already showed interest for the music industry as she would usually watch kids shows that were musical. She even memorized the songs from Mary Poppins and other Disney classic movies. Her parents even encouraged her with this because they saw the potential with their daughter. When she was 7 years old, she told her parents she wanted to be enrolled in a dance class and her parents gladly granted that wish of hers and Eunjung studied ballet and jazz at a young age. She continued dancing up until the year 2007 as Eunjung's father got a huge project in South Korea which lead them to move in the country. During this time, Eunjung had heard the song "Black Happiness" by T Yoon Mirae and she fell in love with Mirae's voice and she felt inspired to try out rapping too. Eunjung had always believed that she's not a good singer and she thought that maybe through rapping, she can still sing. Within the year, Eunjung got together again with her cousin, Im Yoona who happened to be a member of Girls Generation who just debuted, in SM Entertainment. Yoona had encouraged Eunjung to try out for auditions upon knowing that the girl had great interest for the music industry as well. Eunjung tried out auditioning and instantly got in. Many of the trainees weren't happy because of that but she continued and persevered as she wanted to achieve her dreams. SM Entertainment focused with her dancing skills because that was her strong point though she also showed interest in rapping. After a year of being a trainee in the agency, Eunjung quitted and tried her luck with another agency. With just only a few months, she auditioned in Exuare entertainment and also passed. Her parents, at first with all the auditions she had been attending, weren't happy for this because they wanted Eunjung to study first but the girl was persistent and she wanted to reach her dreams. Eunjung told them that she'd do good in school just so her parents let her be a trainee. She actually got their blessing but when she quitted SM, they were hesitant for her to try Exuare. Then again, she was able to convinced them and so that started her trainee days in her present agency.

relationships

     

{★} Father • Im Seungkwan (1962) / Engineer / Smart, funny, arrogant, demanding / 5 
Seungkwan is close to Eungjung, though she may not say that she's actually a Papa's girl, that's what she truly is. They would often exchange lame jokes to each other to which they find the both of them laughing and this will earn an eye roll from Eunjung's mother. Upon knowing that Eunjung wanted to be an artist, he was actually oppose to it since he wanted Eunjung to have a normal life and finish her studies. But seeing how determined his daughter was, he eventually allowed her to go for auditions. He also originally wanted Eunjung to be an Engineer like him but he knew that she was like following her mother's footsteps.

{★} Mother • Park Dasom (1964) / Pianist / Caring, mellow, reserved, strict / 5 
Compared to Seungkwan, Dasom was the stricter one who always wanted Eunjung to be lady-like at all times. Despite that, she always shows her daughter how much she loves her that's why she supported Eunjung with her dreams even though, like Seungkwan, she wanted Eunjung to finish her studies first before taking this path. But she knew enough that Eunjung's one heck of a stubborn young lady and so she approved as well. Sometimes, Eunjung would also open up to her with personal secrets but mostly, Eunjung can't tell those to her mother. She feels awkward :))

{★} Cousin • Im Yoona (1990) / Idol - Girls Generation / Kind, hardworking, childish, passive / 4 
Yoona and Eunjung didn't grow up together, however, that didn't stop the two to treat each other as real sisters. When they were younger, Eunjung's family would fly to SK and visit Yoona's family and the two became really close cousins. And even at the times wherein Eunjung cannot go back in SK, she and Yoona maintained their contact by talking in e-mails and other sns. Yoona was also the first one to know that Eunjung's family will migrate to SK and she was the one to pick them up from the airport. She was still a trainee then who was set to debut in a few months. She knew about Eunjung's passion and she encouraged the younger to audition for SM Entertainment.

    
{★} Soul Sister • Park Sunyoung (1993) / Idol - f(X) / 2007- SM Ent. trainees / Optimistic, painstaking, emotional, sensitive / 5 
Sunyoung and Eunjung met when both were trainees under SM Entertainment. She was the one to stick with Eunjung when the latter got bullied a lot by other trainees. She would even stand up for Eunjung because she gets really annoyed with them saying insults with Eunjung. Eventually, the two of them became best of friends. When Eunjung decided to leave SM, Sunyoung was actually sad about it but of course, she supported her because she knew that it would be better for Eunjung's health to leave as well. They remained in contact and even when Eunjung auditioned in Exuare, Sunyoung was really supportive and even excited as well. Up to the present day, the two were still best friends.

{★} Favorite Unnie • Moon Youngae (1992) / Idol - AN.BEAT / 2009- Exuare Ent. trainees / Faithful, genuine, aloof, impulsive / 4 
When Eunjung became a trainee in Exuare, she was really excited to meet new people. She made a few friends there and after a year, Youngae also became a trainee in Exuare. She has to admit that she found the older girl quite intimidating and she was a bit afraid of her because sometimes she seemed mean for Eunjung. But standing up for herself was one of the traits that Eunjung found admiring with Youngae. And with that, Eunjung tried befriending Youngae. Sometimes, Youngae will be a snob towards Eunjung but that didn't stop the latter. Eventually, after a few more weeks, Youngae gave in and became a kind, but sometimes sassy, unnie to Eunjung.

{★} Guy BFF • Kim Hanjin (1992) / Idol - 1LUSION / 2009- Exuare Ent. trainees / Caring, considerate, shy, strict / 4.5
Hanjin and Eunjung met during his first day of being a trainee in Exuare Entertainment. He was so shy back then so Eunjung, being the dork that she was, approached him and asked if he wanted to become friends with her. Of course, he felt weird because he didn’t see that coming. But nonetheless, he agreed with her. She helped Hanjin around Exuare, with the trainings as well so the two of them eventually got close. Sometimes, Eunjung would help him to be more outgoing so that he could make many friends around their industry as well. They also do rapping practices as both of them were rappers and Hanjin would even give her some tips about rapping. As days became months, the two became the best of friends. They had a good platonic relationship and some people thought they actually were dating because of their closeness and inseparableness. But of course, they won’t ever cross that line as they think that would be . Eunjung was also there for him when he got removed from the line-up for 1LUSION. She told him that she will support him no matter what. Thankfully, Hanjin got the part back and even got the position of being the Main Rapper and Leader. Eunjung claimed she's the number 1 fan of 1LUSION. :)

trainee background

{★} After Eunjung decided to leave SM Entertainment, she quickly made a decision that she'll try to go for another agency with hopes that it will be far much better and welcoming there. She found out about the Exuare Entertainment auditions and tried out. She successfully passed and became a trainee there for more than a year before finally debuting in AN.BEAT. At first, she hid her identity of being Yoona's cousin as she didn't want to experience what she had in SM Entertainment. At that time in SM, some of the trainees bullied her because they were accusing her that she only got in because Yoona was her cousin without even them knowing Eunjung's strengths. And for a young girl like her, she felt really sad because of it. That's why she made a rash decision of leaving SM. Eunjung can admit that she cannot please everybody and she noticed that some of the trainees in Exuare didn't like her as well but she didn't mind anymore as she was really hoping to finally debut. After a few months of being a trainee in Exuare, Yoona had acknowledged her in one of GG's radio shows and that was when the trainees of Exuare knew about Eunjung's identity. Some still throw harsh comments at her but this time she was stronger and didn't mind them. Eunjung's trainee years were definitely a rollercoaster ride of emotions. There were a lot of things that she found difficult. First, the culture. For her, SK was different and so was the people. Though she was practically still fluent in Korean, there were times when she just can't keep up with the humor of other Korean trainees. Another factor was that, Eunjung wasn't that talented at all. She did expressed her interest in rapping but of course, the singing training was not something she can avoid and she was always nagged at every time. Other trainees would even tell her that she didn't belong there but she knew she'll do her best. She can still dance and rap anyway. :))
