   WHO IS THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL...

FACE CLAIM ♡ Kim Seuk Hye
BACK UP FACE CLAIM ♡ Park Hwan Hui

APPEARANCE ♡ Sorin has a petite-like figure and a feminine touch to her appearance. She has a charming eye-smile and bright eyes, soft brown hair (that was dyed) and a height of 164cm. Despite this, she has strong and stiffs thighs and calves from playing basketball. She also has a tattoo of a star behind her ear that she got with her brother. Other than that, she has two piercings on each of her earlobe and a helix piercing on her right ear.

STYLE ♡ Sorin likes to dress smart, chic, and feminine. The clothes she usually wear is comfortable yet fashionable. She doesn't have a distinct type of style as she wears anything, so long as she finds it nice. One thing that she doesn't like is wearing heels as she isn't good wearing it and will stumble sometimes. (her appearance and style is basically the same as the face claim.)

      

  but looks aren't everything。

   YOU'RE ONLY AS PRETTY ON THE OUTSIDE AS YOU ARE ON THE INSIDE...

PERSONALITY ♡
Sorin, although a bit shy and awkward at first meet, is friendly and likes to make new friends. She has a hard time making new friends because of her awkwardness, but once she warms up to them, it will be like they were childhood friends.

She is funny in the sense of making her friends laugh, such as making a fool out of herself to cheer up her friend, or telling stupid jokes to brighten the mood. She is very caring and considerate towards her family and friends.

Despite so, she can be a bit sensitive. She doesn't like it when someone does something she doesn't like, and will throw a small tanthrum when the situation doesn't go as she expected. She is also very irresponsible and can be lazy at times. She doesn't like to clean up her room and bed, and sometimes she would need someone to tell her to do something, only then will she do it.

   THERE'S MORE TO YOU THAN MEETS THE EYE...

BACKGROUND ♡ Sorin was born on March 30, 1992 in Busan, South Korea. She has a mother and an older brother, who is an actor, and a younger brother. Her father passed away when she was 10 during a car accident. Because of this, Sorin grew up without a father's love. Her family had trouble at first, but soon they got better and life continued on. 

She started her career as a model when she and her older brother was offered a job to model for a brand when she was 16. At that time, her older brother was already a well-known model and preparing to debut as an actor. They accepted the job readily and she became known quickly.

She was offered to be an actress by her older brother's agency, and she accepted it, seeing as she always wanted to act but had no confidence. She appeared in a few dramas as side or minor characters, and it wasn't until when she was 20 that she was offered a role in a well-known drama, Innocent Man (2012) as Kang Choco (Lee Yubi's character), that her fame quickly rose.

She appeared in many dramas and was given a few important roles, and even acted in Japanese dramas as well. Sorin is very famous in Japan in particular; although her agency wasn't sure why, maybe they like her personality, but they accepted the response as good publicity.

Ever since then, she's been on the rise as a famous actress in South Korea.

SHIPPING NAME ♡ 'GiRin' couple, or Giraffe couple; because girin means giraffe in korean.
NICKNAMES ♡ 
SUMMARY ♡ Gikwang is a ladies man; he know's how to treat a woman right, so long as the the lady likes him. When it comes to taking care and understanding a girl, he knows it the best. He is very charming and bright, and has a great personality that many likes. He enjoys playing sports, and has a big tummy as well; traits that are similar to Sorin.

  soul(mate) searching。

   SURELY YOU HAVE THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE...

FIRST MEETING ♡ Sorin and Gikwang had no prior meeting, other than greeting each other backstage at Music Bank. Their first official meeting would be for We Got Married. The meeting was a funny one for them.

The episode started off with both artists in a separate location, where they were given a mission card. The mission card was to find each other and the one who finds whoever first wins; the loser will receive punishment: to jump into the cold Han River (and it was winter then). The next day they went to the Han River to seach for each other, but surprise surprise, it wasn't easy. They walked for a while before Gikwang met actress Moon Chaewon, while Sorin met Beast's Yoseob. Both were surprised at first, but soon they walked around Han River, even though they are fakes.

A few  minutes into their walking, Yoseob and Chaewon gave them another mission card, which says that their real husband/wife is a good friend of Yoseob/Chaewon, and whoever guesses first will win.

In the end, it was Gikwang who guessed correctly first, but just as he said her name, Sorin appeared and gave an accidental backhug from trying to catch him. Because both of them won, the PD decided to let them decide who will jump in.

They played 'rock, paper scissors' but they kept putting the same sign for each turn. In the end, Sorin volunteered to jump in, but Gikwang refused. They bickered about it for a while, before the PD said if they want to jump in so eagerly, why not both of them do it?

And that was how two top stars jumped in the Han River, hand-in-hand, together with fans and reporters around them.

RELATIONSHIP ♡ Their story together started off like any new fake relationship, it was awkward. During their first meeting at the Han River, they felt no awkwardness as both were occupied with winning and who would take the punishment, but as they met again, they felt shy around each other.

Slowly but surely, their relationship blossomed into one envied by many. They were funny around together, and didn't show much affection, but it was the small little caring things they did for each other that others found adorable. For example, Gikwang moving to stand near the road quietly, or when Sorin fed Gikwang unconsciously and wiped the stain from his mouth as if she did it everyday, or when both of them smiles at each other like they were a true couple.

They were a couple made in heaven, as their fans tend to dub them. They both enjoy basketball, both loves eating, and they both care for each other unconsciously.

But despite so, they rarely showed their affection for each other; they just do it unconsciously. They would tease eah other and annoy the heck out of him/her, even going as far as to pull pranks sometimes. The fans enjoys their constant bickering. It was a love-and hate relationship.

CONCLUSION ♡ Even before the show ended, both of them became a real couple near the ending of their fake relationship. But as the show stopped, they had less time to meet each other, and are both busy with their schedule. In the end, without anyone knowing, they stopped talking and their relationship just faded, unconsciously. Few months later when Beast made a comeback, they met again at Music Bank. Feelings were still there and after a long talk, they got back together, and this time, they decided to at least tell the Beast members. 

TRIVIA ♡ 
>they are known as the 'GiRin' or Giraffe couple, which they themselves agree on it, making it an official name.
>they both have eye-smiles, and they tease each other about it. "I can't see your eyes!", "I can't see your's too!", "Maybe that's because you can't see!", etc.
>they once tried to prank each other; Sorin put salt into his coffee, while Gikwang placed a fart pillow under her seat. Just as she sat down, Gikwang drank his coffee at the same time. Their reaction was priceless.
>Because of that prank, the word 'GiRin prank gone wrong' went out the seach engine to number 1.

      
 

  interview time。

   answering the questions of the show...

WHAT IS YOUR IDEAL TYPE? ♡ "When I was younger, I said my ideal type would be someone like my brother. When I was a teenager, it changed to a flower boy with golden flocks and bright eyes. And then just recently, it changed to a manly and muscular man." she paused. "But now? I'm not really sure, but when it comes to finding an ideal type, I would look at their eyes first. The eyes tells everything, after all."

WHAT ARE YOU EXCITED FOR? ♡ "The mission cards! I've seen it on TV so many times, I want to know how it looks like." Sorin jumped in her seat. "And, I also hope that I'll be given interesting missions!"

WHAT ARE YOU WORRIED FOR? ♡ "I'm worried about many things: how the netizens will accept me and my husband, how my husband's fans will react, and just everything. Will I get hate? Or will we be accepted with positivity?" she thought for a while before speaking again, "I'm most worried about how my husband will think of me. Will he like me? That's the important question."

IS THERE ANYONE YOU'D LIKE TO GET MARRIED TO? ♡ "...Ed Sheeran... I'm just kidding." she says, but her face says the complete opposite, making the staffs laugh.
