nicknames

 CHOI DAMDANGJA  최담당자 :: fans new and old alike, even the other members sometimes :: literally "person in charge choi," it's a play on her birth name, which was initially created because daniela always tries to be the leader.
 CHOI SOHYANG  최소향 :: people who have been fans of an.beat since their debut. nowadays, it's pretty uncommon to hear :: a combination of kim sohyang's first name and daniela's surname. it was so created because certain people thought daniela sounded like the famous gospel singer when an.beat first debuted
 COSETTE  코세트 :: johannes, especially when he wants to get her attention right away :: when she was younger, she played young cosette in a small theatre production of les miserables
 DANA  다나 :: her family and jaekyung, who wants to have a unique nickname for her. johannes tends to use it when he wants something out of her :: a shorter, cuter version of daniela
 DANI  다니 :: the rest of her friends—the older women of six girls call her dani-yah, while hyosung calls her dan-eonni—and fans when they don't feel like saying "regen". it matches the traditional two-syllable korean name, so she likes to use it in place of her birth name (using choi dani instead) :: also derived from daniela 

birthday may 27, 1989
birthplace seoul, gyeonggi-do, south korea
hometown cologne, north rhine-westphalia, germany
ethnicity korean
languages spoken

 GERMAN  fluent :: her native language. she speaks the kölsch dialect, as she grew up in cologne.
 KOREAN  fluent :: she spoke very limited korean with her mother growing up; most of what she knew before she became a trainee had to do with chores or discipline. because of this, her grammar and accent used to be laughable, but now she sounds like a born seoullite, save for the occasional speed bump with hanja. to be fair, though, it isn't really something they teach in middle school (as far as i know, that is).
 ENGLISH  proficient :: as is required by the german secondary school system, daniela has learned english since she entered gymnasium at age 10. she continued even after she moved to south korea, and was put into an advanced english course due to her previous knowledge. anyway, exuare has told her several times to speak with more of a korean accent, so as to be more understandable (a thick german accent combined with english is hard to follow for a non-native speaker), and she tries her best to do so, but it's just so hard to keep it up. when she sings, her accent basically disappears, since that's imitation more than anything.

appearance

 PHYSICALITY  daniela has a vague hourglass shape to her, and even has a bit of junk in the trunk if you look at her from the right angle. she has thicker legs than is desired for female idols, and is the number one reason why she has never worn thigh high boots as part of her concept. her skin has always been quite pale—partially due to genetics, but mostly because her step-father thinks it's important protect skin from sun rays—and to fight against uv rays, she always does her best to wear sunscreen. as a result, combined with how her make-up is done, her skin often has a dewy look to it.

both her ears are pierced, in the earlobes and helices, and she has a tattoo (which she got in 2014) that reads "Man muss das Eisen schmieden solange es heiß ist." (meaning "one has to forge the iron while it's hot" in german) down her left side in dark blue ink. it was very painful, but she thinks it was worth it. she has always wanted a nose piercing, but one of her former companies, jyp, said she couldn't. she is tempted to ask exuare if she can get it now, since she's been with them for several years.

 FASHION SENSE  in public, daniela tries her best to always look in-style. from oversized sweaters to halter top dresses, she probably has at least one of that very clothing item. but personally, daniela likes tomboyish clothing with a feminine twist, such as skater dresses and converse, or snapbacks, tank tops and jean shorts, and she will wear these on a casual day, or when she will just be outside to run errands. for dance practice, she will wear sweatpants or athletic shorts with a neutral colored tank top. her formal wear is usually a dress with plenty of jewelry, but if she had a choice, daniela would probably wear a pantsuit.

personality

 →  daniela is a good person—really, she is. or at least, she tries to be. but in reality, she is very easily annoyed, but still able to cover it up in front of most people. however, before her close friends and family, she explodes, pouring out all of her complaints to them. luckily, her close friends, like yujin and yubin, are willing to take that burden. the thing that bothers daniela the most is lying, which, unfortunately, is a major part of the korean music industry, especially for idols. so, she tries to tell the truth as much as possible, especially after her debut. the one thing is that she will not tell harsh lies to other people; that's what the ranting is for. instead, she will bend the truth, but never enough that she feels like she isn't telling the truth.

having to step in for her mother when she couldn't think straight, daniela has had to act like an adult for a long time. at first, she didn't like it, but after going through it for so long, she has grown to appreciate the skills her role in the family have given her. for one, she has become very good at taking care of people, and helping them out in any way she can. she always tries to find a way to fix things, and in that sense, has become good at thinking on her feet. secondly, she knows how to take charge, and can, usually, steer a situation the right way. but, she isn't perfect, and can't always change things for the better. additionally, daniela is considered very mature for her age. still, she tends to be overly clingy to those she considers her "children". the only way to make her go away is to basically shove her off, which makes her very sad.

it takes a lot to stick with something for almost seven years, especially when that something involves only receiving four hours of sleep a day. but, for daniela, it was all worth it. she forged her way through a language barrier, training for hours a day, and a couple of let downs using her determination, which can, perhaps, also be her downfall. she is so driven to do what she loves that she will disagree if anyone says something negative about her passions. really, anyone. and, because she sticks to the same things for so long, she tends to remember those whom have wronged her. she will not outwardly say anything to that person, but will occasionally glare or mutter under her breath about them.

background

 →  a few months before daniela was born, her mother, sunhye, and daniela's biological father, park woohyun, were as happy as could be. they were still fairly young and foolish in their parents' eyes, but to them, life couldn't get any better. they were recently married with a baby on the way; what wasn't to love? absolutely nothing, that's what. but, one day, tragedy struck. while the couple was driving to the beach for a day trip, a large semi-truck suddenly spun out of control on the road and ran straight into the couple's tiny, silver kia. woohyun was killed on impact, while a pregnant sunhye suffered a broken leg. Although the injury was promptly treated, sunhye remained in the hospital for a few more days. the police investigating the accident, along with the doctors at the hospital, were very concerned that the young woman would go into shock and have her child prematurely. and, under all that stress, it was possible the baby would die. so there sunhye stayed.

at some point during sunhye's long stay at the hospital, she met a man by the name of heinrich, who turned out to be her current husband. although he was a very serious man, his voice was kind and comforting, and she couldn't help falling for the soft-spoken german. he could also speak korean, which was certainly a bonus. even after daniela's mother was considered free to leave the hospital, she would frequent the building just to see heinrich in his free time - not that he had much of that. no more than three months later, the two of them knew they were made for each other, and were getting married as soon as possible. not too long after their wedding, daniela was born. the three of them lived in heinrich's small apartment, along with his son, erik. he was six years older than her, but got along as soon as daniela was old enough to interact like a normal human being. by that time, heinrich's visa had expired, and the family of four moved back to his home in cologne. after a year in germany, daniela's brother johannes was born.

from a young age, daniela liked singing, dancing, and acting. she begged her parents to let her try out acting at the local theatre. her step-father thought it would be good for her, seeing as her only two friends were her brothers, and would surely help her find some new companions. sunhye quickly agreed. so, from age five to 15, daniela was at the theatre starring in different plays and musicals.

daniela was first introduced to k-pop when its popularity was just growing in germany; she was about ten years old at the tim. she was, almost instantly, hooked, and very quickly became interested in korean culture as well. she wanted to learn about her homeland. It was at that moment daniela knew she wanted to become a k-pop idol above all else. her parents supported her, and said that she certainly could go if she was accepted into a company. heinrich was the more apprehensive of the two, concerned that daniela could be kidnapped, or get hurt and have no family to go to. sunhye assured him that daniela would be staying with her family, so everything would go just fine. finally, he agreed, and daniela sent audition tapes out to several companies. In the end, she was taken in by good entertainment. within a month, daniela was onboard a plane to daegu, then a bus to gyeongju, where she would live with her aunt and the rest of her family until good entertainment was ready for her.

while in middle school, struggling to keep up with the all-korean curriculum, daniela met a boy named jongseok. he about her accent at first, but once they became friends, he explained it was because he just wanted to befriend her, but didn't know how to go about it. he would eventually become daniela's best friend, and, briefly, her boyfriend during her last year at jeongju ochang high school. by this time, she had little trouble speaking Korean, although she made numerous mistakes when she wrote something down, and continues to do this, although far less frequently.

after transferring companies twice - from good entertainment to jyp to exuare—daniela settled into training much sooner than she previously had. being a veteran of training, she knew how it worked and what to do, generally speaking. every company was different, after all. after graduating high school, she decided to study film arts at konkuk university, where quite a few of her friends, including jongseok, ended up also. balancing her studies with training was difficult, but nothing she couldn't handle if it meant achieving her ultimate goal.

— she hates her birth name with a burning passion, and will use dani or daniela in its place whenever she can.
— conversely, she uses baumgärtner and choi interchangeably as her surname, except on legal documents.
— knows sung yuri (ex-member of fin.kl) and ida dene simmons (ex-member of izak and jiyeon) due to their german ties; yuri lived in german for a number of years, while ida is half-german.
— daniela doesn't think she's ever had a crush before. since she was young, daniela has never felt the overwhelming desire to be with someone in the way she can only assume a crush works, and as a result, she thought she was somehow broken. but, as she discovered the lgbt+ community, she has been able to accept her ual and romantic orientations. So, she now identifies as panromantic aual privately. publicly, she says she just wants to focus on music for now and not think about relationships.
— given her uality and exuare never forcing her to make something up, daniela has never announced her ideal type. even when asked on variety shows or interviews, she'll just reply "no comment". as a result, there's an ongoing joke in the an.beat fandom (especially regentropfen)  wherein fans post random objects under #regensidealtype.
— wings who aren't regen-biased tend to say she's very "shippable", which is just a product of her friendliness. if she interacts with an idol even once, there'll be at least one person saying they've found their new otp. this includes but isn't limited to: behind the scenes photos of queen of ambition that showed yunho and daniela talking (she was just expressing her admiration), se7en and daniela playing opposite one another in elisabeth (just acting, nothing more), promoting hot young bloods with jongseok (see: scandals and news articles), most of her friends from good entertainment (they've just been through a lot), her cousin (before anyone knew they were related, of course), [[...] more examples to come].
— her blood type is b+.
— at one point, her last name was going to be chak (착), a combination of her mother's and biological father's (park woohyun) surnames.
— a vocal supporter of the lgbt+ community.
— her favorite desert is gelato.
— she's read fan-fiction a few more times than she would like to admit, but immediately stops if she sees any -related fics involving her and/or her friends. 
— mostly a fan of soloists (like lee hyori and rain), but also likes snsd, btob, turbo, and clc.
— an athiest.
— in 2012, she graduated from konkuk university with a bachelor's degree in film arts.
— she's the type to say horrible things to her dongsaengs (e.g. "i'm gonna kill you" and "you're so ugly"), but her words should never be taken seriously.
— loves being called noona, and doesn't mind using/being called eonni, but isn't a fan of calling guys oppa; she'll do it on-camera, though she'll cringe a ton, but refuses to use it otherwise. luckily the male staff members of exuare understand this, and she doesn't have any close male friends who are also older than her, so she doesn't need to use it a lot anyway.
—  although she is more of an oldies k-pop fan, "잡아줘 (hold me tight)" by bts is one of her 2015 jams. she's very disappointed they haven't been able to perform it live.
— over the years, daniela's hair has been pretty consistent: reaching somewhere between her bottom of her neck and her mid-back in waves, and some shade of brown. the only exceptions to this was one time when stylists once gave her orange hair for a group comeback, but they ended up dyeing it back to dark brown a couple days later. another was early on in an.beat's career, equivalent in outragousness to most of dara's hairstyles.
— the story of her citizenship is an odd one. for the first seven years of her life, she only held south korean citizenship, even though she lived in germany, because she was born there. however, once her mother was naturalized in 1996, daniela also became a german citizen, and remained as such for the next 14 years (by german law, dani couldn't maintain her south korean citizenship, as the child of a foreign national with dual citizenship cannot also have dual citizenship). however, in 2010, with the nationality act ammended, daniela was eligable for dual citizenship. so, between promotions for "drop the beat" and "shampoo", she applied for dual citizenship with germany and south korea, which she was granted after proving she was born in south korea to a south korean parent, and pledging she would not present her german citizenship on south korean soil. since then, she has freedom of movement throughout the european union, and can go to many other countries outside of europe without a visa. but at the same time, there are some countries she literally cannot go to because of her south korean passport.
— like myungsoo of infinite, or kyungsoo of exo, fans almost never refer to daniela by her stage name; exuare still insists on using it, though.
— more to be added

relationships

              

 MOTHER  최선혜 (66) / aspiring novelist / intelligent, scatter-braied, hopeless romantic / -1
they are the complete opposite of one another; sunhye is in a constant state of flying by the seat of her pants, while daniela is dedicated to having a plan. for this reason, she was constantly annoyed with her mother growing up, as when her mother wasn't quite in the right mindset to take care of her children, daniela would be forced to step in. they clash on almost all topics they discuss, and for this reason, many people think daniela resents her mother. and, in some ways, she does. but deep down, she cares for her mother more than anything in the world.
 STEP-FATHER  heinrich baumgärtner (54) / general physician / kind, stoic, intimidating / 3
their relationship is typical of a father and daughter. heinrich has always treated daniela as his own, but at the same time, as daniela has grown older, he has begun treating her with a great deal of respect too. 
 STEP-BROTHER  erik baumgärtner (83) / c-list actor / calm, easy-going, charismatic / 4.5
as the first sibling daniela ever knew, she is very close to erik. when she doesn't want to approach their parents about something, perhaps because she did something dangerous, she will most likely talk to Erik about it. the trust each other a lot, and text each other whenever they have a chance, although with the timezone difference, this has proven to be quite difficult.
 HALF-BROTHER  johannes baumgärtner (95) / model / ambitious, indecisive, arrogant / 2
daniela is almost always seen scolding her brother when he's around. still, she does legitimately care about him/want what's best for him. after all, she is, in some ways, more of a maternal figure to him than their own mother. so she is, sometimes, gentle with him, like when he approaches her to talk about serious matters or girl troubles. he decided to pursue modeling as a professional career after finishing mittleschule at age 14, and in that time, he has become something of a rising star in the industry. until about a year ago, when he was signed with a south korean modeling company (kplus), johannes had been traveling throughout europe and the united states. in that time, he's been able to (sort of) make friends with some of the models around his age, and recently one kim taehyung. but johannes isn't the best at making friends, so it's more of a "we're-working-for-the-same-company-so-we-should-probably-be-nice-to-each-other." 
 MATERNAL COUSIN  이선미 (92) / wonder girls / caring, youthful, energetic / 3seonmi is, essentially, another one of daniela's siblings. whenever they're together, they're playing around and acting like children. when daniela first arrived in south korea, sunmi's family took her in while she waited for good entertainment to prepare for her training. sunmi once offered for her to live with the rest of the wonder girls, while she trained at jyp, but the company said no, as doing so would be favoring one trainee over the others.

                 

     

 BEST FRIEND  이종석 (89) / actor&model / school (03) / jovial, reserved, a bit callous / 5
undoubtably daniela's best friend. the two of them have known each other for 12 years, and they feel they can tell each other anything. this has lead to many awkward encounters with third parties (like the time daniela told jongseok in explicit detail what her period symptoms had been like that month), but they don't care anymore. 

 TRAINEE BUDDY  gina choi "g.na" (87) / soloist / six girls (06) / 3
in some ways, gina reminds daniela of her own mother, but not to the point that she also feels annoyed by gina constantly. instead, she seems to be a toned-down version of her mother, which is tolerable enough for the younger woman. similar to daniela's relationship with seonmi, she and gina always mess around when they're together. gina is the number one piece of evidence to prove daniela doesn't 100% hate her mom.
 TRAINEE BUDDY  양지원 (88) / spica / six girls (06) / modest, diligent, cute (in dani's opinion lmao) / 3.6
in addition to hanging out with daniela a lot, jiwon will, forever and always, be daniela's favorite eonni. while she always strives to be perfect for the fans, to daniela, jiwon is without flaw, and someone who she will look up to for the rest of her life. conversely, jiwon sees daniela as a little sister and friend, full of quirks and acceptable flaws.
 TRAINEE BUDDY  김유진 "uee" (88) / after school / six girls (06) / rigid, mature, polite / 4
daniela has always considered yujin to be one of her good friends, mostly because she never judged daniela for her terrible accent when she first arrived at good entertainment. 
 TRAINEE BUDDY  김유빈 (88) / wg / six girls (06) / captivating, funny, internalizes her emotions a lot / 4
to this day, if daniela needs to be cheered up, whether it's because she misses her family, or is just feeling sad, she will go to yubin, because she knows she will feel better right away. yubin, on the other hand, vents any pent-up feelings she has to daniela, be it her frustrations or just figuring things out.
 TRAINEE BUDDY  전효성 (89) / secret / six girls (06) / collected, caring, perserverant / 4
because hyosung is younger, daniela always goes out of her way to make fun of her, or make her do things, especially in front of the other members of secret. hyosung hates being embarrassed in front of them, but as daniela's dongsaeng, she can't really refuse. in general, though, they have a sisterly bond, and because they are closest in age out of all the former good entertainment trainees daniela knows, they share a lot in common. in the past, she very firmly told daniela to not baby her like she does with other people, which she has (mostly) respected. she sometimes slips up, though.
 SOULMATE  김재경 (88) / rainbow / strong heart (10) / kind, helpful, extroverted / infinity 5
often mistaken for daniela's best friend, jaekyung is probably just a rung off of that status, though it doesn't look like jongseok will step down from that position anytime soon. still, jaekyung and daniela's relationship is very close and intimate for korean standards. when they're together, they are almost always touching in some way, be it hitting each other while they laugh, or sitting close enough together that their arms brush. their relationship seems to be just a half-step beyond a "normal" relationship between two female friends. still, they're great together on variety shows, and highly requested to appear together. they're two peas in a pod, one half of the other. but they'd never consider it romantic.
 BANDMATE  문영애 (92) / an.beat / exuare (6/09) / genuine, competitive, spoiled / 3when youngae first arrived, and only months later put into the an.beat line-up, daniela was angry. how could a girl who hadn't even trained for a year just show up out of the blue and debut, when for her it took three years alone for a chance? but once she got to know the girl, it was hard for daniela to not to like her. even if youngae could be a real brat, she reminded daniela of a certain relative of hers, so she knew how to deal with youngae if she really ticked her off. they do have their differences, even now, but at the end of the day, they'll always support each other.

  

 FAVORITE HOOBAE  김석진 "jin" ('92) / bts / show champion (10/13) / something tells me you can write his personality better than i can so imma leave this blank / -2
bts and an.beat were put in the same waiting room before their respective performances, and the boys were being a little bit rowdy, as per usual. but the girls (or at least daniela) didn't mind. regardless, seokjin kept apologizing and tried to shush the other boys with little success. to this day, seokjin has stuck out to daniela, because not only is he aesthetically pleasing in daniela's eyes, but he is also constantly considering the people around him, regardless of whether he knows them or not. and ever since they first met, daniela has gone out of her way to interact with him. over time they have seen that they share a lot in common—even though there is a three year gap between them—from their caring natures to having the same major while attending university; in fact, some of seokjin's professors are the same ones daniela had, and she's sure she saw him in passing when she used to help her favorite professor with their freshman classes once. the other an.beat members like to by saying he's like her first crush, but she thinks her feelings are definitely affection, not infatuation, even if he is nice to look at. instead, she's almost like his mom, constantly babying and checking up on him. plus, she and jaekyung are made for each other, and nothing can ever change that.

she thinks the other boys of bangtan are cool too, but seokjin is clearly her favorite. johannes can have the rest of them.

trainee background

 →  when daniela left cologne, she was determined to become an idol, and that meant joining a company. she began at good entertainment in 2003, after sending an audition to them, and remained there for three years. considered to be a very diligent trainee, daniela was recognized for her hard work almost immediately. to good entertainment's founder, daniela was ideal for a future idol: she was willing to do just about anything for the chance to be famous, she was hard-working, and very friendly. after training for three years, the company's founder put her into a project group, six girls, along with a few female trainees she had sometimes passed in the halls. the six of them were, of course, excited to debut together. but, just before the girls' reality show was going to begin filming, daniela was told she had been pulled out of the group, and would debut as a soloist instead. on the inside, she was torn. she would, on one hand, be able to showcase all of her talents without going unheard, but on the other, she would not have her new friends by her side. in the end, daniela took the offer, and even ended up making a cameo on the girl's reality show (by that point, it was called "five girls", the group we all know and would have loved today). her wish was granted. in 2007, when the group and daniela were supposed to debut seperately, the company transferred all six of them to various companies, along with the rest of their artists, due to financial problems.

daniela was sent to jyp entertainment along with yubin. there, she already felt like she didn't belong. she realized it just wasn't the company for her. so, she looked around at different companies. sm was more focused on having good dancers, which she was decent at, but still not enough to stand out a lot, and yg simply wasn't her style. she briefly considered joining jiwon at core content media, but she complained about how they were treated frequently. her other friends from the six girls line-up had been able to debut, so she didn't think it would be the best idea to join their labels as a trainee. so, where was she supposed to go?

one day, as she pondered this question, she was approached by an exuare recruiting agent. daniela had told them she had never heard of this company before, but promised she would audition sometime soon. in her head, though, she said that this was very unlikely, but the woman was quite convincing, and by the end of their conversation, daniela was scheduled for an audition the following week. when the agent asked for her name, daniela, in a panic, said regen, the german word for rain (also a nickname one of her friends gave to her, due to her korean name being "sweet rain"). in the end, this ended up being her stage name. when she auditioned for exuare entertainment, she sang "survivor" by destiny's child and "forever love" by fin.kl, then danced to part of lee hyori's "toc toc toc." after being accepted, daniela worked hard, just as hard as she had before, and often went to school with only four hours of sleep.

 →  various plays and musicals, from 1995 to late 2002, i.e. les miserables (as young cosette and again as éponine), amphitryon (as andria), the fossil (as ulrike), leonce and lena (as the governess).
 →  appeared briefly in mtv's diary of five girls (late 2006)

 →  ROOKIE GIRL GROUP MEMBER DOES NOT WANT TO GET MARRIED? :: 2010 :: on strong heart (coincidentially the one where she met jaekyung), daniela made a comment, relevant to the topic, about not wanting to get married nor have children. when asked why, she replied that she had yet to find anyone that fit her criteria. netizens called her a snob, claiming there were plenty of attractive guys on the show alone.
 →  IS AN.BEAT'S REGEN A LESBIAN? and others :: heard all throughout an.beat's career, but peaked in 2012; officially false but sort of true :: after her comment on strong heart, the media and fans start to question daniela's uality. in a later interview, around 2011 or 2012, daniela denied it, simply saying her comment was misunderstood. but unfortunately, her close relationship with jaekyung and the ambiguous lyrics of her song "awoo" have never helped her case.
 →  THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUNMI AND AN.BEAT'S REGEN? :: 2013 :: an.beat and sunmi were interviewed at the same time on a live music show, and of course she and daniela were excited to see each other. they kept it very professional as the short interview went on, but in the split second before the camera panned away from them, eagle-eyed netizens noticed the two of them reaching for each other's hands and laughing. this just brought back the gay regen rumors, until sunmi revealed a couple days later that they were actually cousins, and were just happy to see each other after spending so much time apart.
 →  AN.BEAT'S REGEN DID NOT PLAY THE GUITAR IN HER SINGLE "JUST THE TWO OF US" :: 8/13, true :: daniela said in an interview that she didn't know how to play an instrument, which prompted the interviewer to ask if she had learned to play the guitar for the "just the two of us" music video. she admitted that she did not, but quickly added that youngae helped her make it look more genuine.
 →  LEE JONGSEOK AND REGEN DATING? :: 1/14, false :: after the release of hot young bloods, which both of them were in, it was revealed by some of their classmates that they had dated in the past (which is true). since it was in the past tense, it wasn't that big of a deal for netizens, and went away after a while. unfortunately, rumors about the two of them resurfaced after jongseok was spotted holding daniela very close to him while they walked out of a restaurant, clearly finishing up a date. in reality, they were celebrating the release of the movie, and had tripped on their way out. concerned, jongseok put a protective arm around her. quite a few people witnessed this, what with the restaurant being pretty popular, but few acknowledged that daniela was actually drunk off her ; the pda was clearly more important.
 →  EXURE ENT FORCES REGEN (AN.BEAT) TO PERFORM DESPITE INJURY :: 10/14, false :: after filming two music videos for her new album, daniela decided to celebrate by getting a tattoo. soon after, it was time for the very first stage of her new song, but it was so painful that she couldn't dance, so she ended up sitting in a chair instead. the crop top she was wearing also showed discoloration on her side. fans automatically assumed she was forced to continue promotions despite her injury (from what exactly they didn't know). in truth, exuare actually wanted to delay promotions and let her tattoo heal a bit first, and it was daniela who wanted to continue.

Anything else?

 →  her fanclub is called regentropfen, meaning "raindrop(s)", and her fanclub color is #848ae0.
 →  between an.beat's debut and the present (aka 2015, but 2013 too), daniela's voice has improved, and now, out of all idols, she's somewhere in the 90th percentile in terms of vocal agility, though she is most comfortable with her upper range. for this reason, she likes to incorporate whistle tones into her singing when appropriate, like mariah carey or ariana grande.

netizens have criticized daniela's voice a lot over the years because she didn't have the typical r&b or pop sound of a main vocalist, though exuare was quick to reply that daniela has the best control of her voice in the group. despite this statement, daniela worked extensively with a vocal coach to develop her voice, in hopes of pleasing fans.

because of her vocal training, her style changed a lot over the years. fans have always thought daniela sounded like sohyang, but between an.beat's debut and the end of 2011, she sounded like a cross between sohyang and kahi. 2012 and 2013 was her time of experimentation, where her voice changed a lot depending on the song. in 2014, once she settled into her signature sound, she was considered an ailee-sohyang hybrid. (in short, her talent twin is ailee)

 →  when asked to show off her talents, she usually showcases her whistle register and acting (mostly through reenacting scenes from famous dramas and movies).
 →  she has had a twitter account (@angelicregen) since 2011, and an instagram (@regenbaum) since 2012. in the beginning, she used to reply to all tweets she received, back when there were very few wings, especially on twitter, but since the fandom has grown, she only replies to maybe one or two a day.
 →   she's a bad freestyle dancer, but can perform choreographed dances just fine if she practices hard enough. in terms of rapping, she can do it if she puts her mind to it, but won't enjoy it (aka i did not know ailee could rap???).
 →  daniela has a decent variety sense by herself. she's even better with the other members or her friends, but really shines when jaekyung is with her.

 

 
 

last comment i needed to destress after finishing college apps so i revamped again lmao
Do you mind if I pick the back up love interest instead of the first choice? n/a
Are you comfortable with drama? yessssssss

scene requets

 →  an.beat on healing camp (preferably while sung yuri is the host)
 →  dani and anyone else who likes football watching the world cup or something
 →  flashbacks to a questionable hairstyle daniela was given
 →  daniela accidentally coming across a fan-fic about her and jaekyung
 →  just lots of cute, platonic moments with jaekyung
 →  dani's first meeting with seokjin + everyone teasing her about "liking" him (preferably in 2013)
 →  (if she ends up with a love interest) maybe them being jealous of daniela's affection for everyone???
 →  daniela appearing on a variety show with bts and trying to subtly encourage seokjin to speak up more (would probably make the most sense if she had a solo debut or cb)
