don't try to disappear
personality :
positive: tolerant, reliable, charismatic, altruistic, natural leaders
negative: overly idealistic, too selfless, too sensitive, fluctuating self-esteem, struggle to make tough desicion
hongbin is a true team player, and he recognizes that that means listening to other peoples' opinions, even when he contradicts his own. he admits he don't have all the answers, and are often receptive to dissent, so long as it remains constructive. The one thing that galls hongbin the most is the idea of letting down a person or cause he believes in. If it's possible, he can always be counted on to see it through. Charm and popularity are qualities hongbin has in spades. he instinctively know how to capture an audience, and pick up on mood and motivation in ways that allow him to communicate with reason, emotion, passion, restraint – whatever the situation calls for. Talented imitators, he is able to shift his tone and manner to reflect the needs of the audience, while still maintaining his own voice. Uniting these qualities is hongbin's unyielding desire to do good in and for his communities, be it in his own home or the global stage. Warm and selfless, he genuinely believe that if he can just bring people together, he can do a world of good. More than seeking authority themselves, he often end up in leadership roles at the request of others, cheered on by the many admirers of his strong personality and positive vision.
hongbin can be caught off guard as he finds that, through circumstance or nature, or simple misunderstanding, people fight against him and defy the principles he has adopted, however well-intentioned he may be. he is more likely to feel pity for this opposition than anger, and can earn a reputation of naïveté. he can bury himself in his hopeful promises, feeling others' problems as his own and striving hard to meet his word. If he isn't careful, he can spread himself too thin, and be left unable to help anyone. While receptive to criticism, seeing it as a tool for leading a better team, it's easy for him to take it a little too much to heart. his sensitivity to others means that hongbin sometimes feel problems that aren't his own and try to fix things he can't fix, worrying if he is doing enough. hongbin defines his self-esteem by whether he is able to live up to his ideals, and sometimes ask for criticism more out of insecurity than out of confidence, always wondering what he could do better. If he fails to meet a goal or to help someone he said he would help, his self-confidence will undoubtedly plummet. If caught between a rock and a hard place, hongbin can be stricken with paralysis, imagining all the consequences of their actions, especially if those consequences are humanitarian.

background : hongbin and nayeon first met when they were 14. that was hongbin's first journey to korea to meet his father' friends. nayeon's father was one of them. nayeon who is friendly bring hongbin around seoul and bring him eat the most delicious food in korea. hongbin was having fun in that one week in korea and with nayeon. before he went back to new york, he asked for her contact number so that they could remain their friendship although they are from the other side of the world. since then, hongbin will always text nayeon or they chat through skype. when nayeon got into jyp entertainment, she quickly call him when he's sleeping (because at new york it's night time). he still feel happy for her and talk to her for 1 hour. although they do not see each other often, they enjoy each other accompany. therefore, in valantine's day 2013, hongbin flew back to korea to give her a surprise and he confessed to her, nayeon happily accept and they become a couple.
nayeon and hongbin are not the typical loving couple you can ever find. this is because they do not meet each other often. when hongbin flew to korea for a few days with his father, he will spend that few days with nayeon. he will wait for her in front of the company and they will go on a date in a cafe, walk around dongdaemun, or watch a movie together. nayeon will talk about her life as a trainee while hongbin will tell her about his producing life in new york and how fortunate he is to meet those famous djs like hardwell and tiesto. they do not share their first kiss yet because they think that they are too small. hongbin will instead kiss her forehead, cheek and even shoulder that makes nayeon feels warm.
hongbin gave nayeon another great surprise when she saw him inside jyp entertainment. she was confused because he never went into the building. jyp's ceo park jinyoung then introduced the renowned korean dj dean as one of the trainee in jyp entertainment. nayeon opened her eyes wide as she didn't expect hongbin to have this decision. actually, hongbin decided to become a trainee because he could be with nayeon and pursue his music interest. when nayeon knows that, she can't help but hug him tight and kiss him. that's how their first kiss goes!
since then, the two of them practiced hard. they frequently meet in the company. since hongbin has his own apartment, their date will be in there as they cannot go out often, with the company revealed profiles of nayeon. hongbin will cook for nayeon and they laugh their heart out. in june 2015, park jinyoung went to meet nayeon and hongbin. he knows that the two of them are couple. he requested them to break up because nayeon is going to be debuted under twice and dean will be revealed soon. he don't want any scandal between them. hongbin refused to straightaway, saying that they could cover their relationship and not showing it to public. nayeon holds his hand, calling him to stop. when they go to his apartment, they had a great arguement. nayeon asked for a break up because she really need to debut and cannot risk that with his relationship. hongbin was very heartbroken because she can say that in front of him. he never fell in love so deeply before and do not even want to be apart with her. nayeon put the key to his apartment on the table and leave without even turning back.
hongbin was very sad and heartbroken, he didn't go to practice for two weeks. nayeon was worried about him but dared not text him because if she texted, it means that she still care for him. she asked her teammate, tzuyu to ask him. nayeon wants a break up because she does not want his fame and career (dj and kpop idol) goes to a waste. after his best friend, yimin's advise, he stands up and continue practicing. when the two of them met in the corridor, hongbin will smile at her while she just nod. hongbin still miss her a lot. sometimes, he will stand outside twice's practice room and watch her practicing, laughing. just by watching her laughing will give him energy.
relationship status : ex-couple and talk with formalties (they are still in love with each other)
everything is so awkward
