Personality triats

→ (-) sensitive, superficial, vulnerable, naive
PErsonalityto describe dana, she is often called the innocent princess. why you may ask? well she is confident and gracious. dana is not cocky, but she knows who she is and she has a good sense of her self. even though she knows she is not the most talented member of various, she stills give off an aura of the fact that her trying is enough. she is gracious in the sense that she was always taught to be proper. she is proper to the extent that the trainees think of her as a sweet little robot. she is always nice and aware of other people's feelings too. she tends to like everything clean and her way. she can not stand things out of place or not in the way she likes. because she is so nice, people feel like she is really friendly and easy to talk to.

dana is also very sensitive, shallow, and naive. she is like a little kid sometimes in the sense that she is not always confident. she shows her confident side on the indside but there are lots of things she is sensitive and insecure about. many of the big hit trainees for not really knowing much korean, not in a malicious way, but it does hurt dana's feelings. for a year she has gone home crying about how hard it is. because dana grew up in a world of beauty, money, and fame she was subconciously taught to care too much about how she looks and acts. sometimes that's all anyone can see about her is how her lifestyle is. dana is also very vulnerable and naive, especially coming to a new country and relearning everything culture and language wise. any of the trainees can trick her into believing anything and she wouldn't know it.

Background

 li dai yu, other wise known as dana, is china's little princess. yes, yes, she was born to technology tycoon li meng yao and famous tv personality and socialite, yan jia yi. dana grew up with a silver spoon in , having the best of everything. you would think her head would be big. well, it's not... not really. dana has been able to do a lot of things thanks to her family. she got to do lots of activities. anything she wanted from cheerleading to track to modeling to piano lessons, she always wanted to something. but her favorite activity she had ever done, is her time doing chinese traditional dance.

she has been doing it since she was 7 and continued to until she was about 14. and that's when she was scouted. april 2013, dana had the biggest recital of her life. she finally had a solo part and the whole performance was put up on the traditional dance school's youtube. a month later her dance teacher confronted her saying that a scout from an entertainment company in korea, big hit entertainment. she was told they wanted to fly her out to korea to have her audtion for the company. this was very unexpected for dana because she didn't have any plans for a career in singing, but she did it anyways, well after weeks of convincing her father, but her mother was already on board. 

so, may 2013, dana auditioned for big hit entertainment and was immediately taken in, as they already had plans for her. she has been training since june 20, 2013.

Heigh & Weigh : 171 cm & 49Kg

Apperance & Styledana was born with princess looks. she gets her face and height from her mama. she has beautiful, almost poreless skin that koreans deem too dark, but actually give off a exotic look. she was born with dark chocolate brown hair that goes down to the middle of her back, but recently she dyed it a light caramel color to match her skin tone and cut it to be a little past her shoulders. she has a cute small nose, but huge hazel eyes. because her mother is a socialite, personality, and model, she was always brought up in a world of fashion and beauty. she always cares about how she looks. she uses eyeliner, mascara, a little eyeshadow, brow filler, lipstick or gloss, and like two different foundations to easily cover up her breakouts that she usually gets on her forehead. every single morning. she is also known to have the best body amongst the big hit girls weighing at 49kg with killer abs. dana often gets compared to krystal and jessica when it comes to style. she likes to keep it simple, but still stylish. her everyday style is probably thhe same as her airport fashion. her casual, everyday wear is something like a nice blouse or sweater that has pretty designs on them with solid colored skinny jeans or shorts. her favorite shoes are either her converse/vans or her ballet flats. when she really wants to dress up she wears flowy skirts or floral dresses. man, does she have many floral dresses. over sized sweaters are her favoirte all year around until summer. most of the time if the group is chilling at home, she will be just wearing a large sweater with just her under wear under it. during the summer, her love is high waisted shorts and she will wear those to death until it is below freezing. she also expresses her love for over sized sweaters outside. she also likes to use accessories to up the outfit, but she knows when too much is too much. she might have like two bracelets on, a headband or beanie, and she always has on earrings. they make the outfit to her. oh, and she loves designer bags. ugh, she only gets fancy when it comes to purses.

Families
 father ; li meng yao ; 51 ; february 20, 1964 ; strict, loving, money-mindedi i mean, they at least have a relationship. they love each other, but her father is strict. she knows that he makes decisions for her because he cares about her better being. they can have sweet moments, but it's rare. but she really respects him.

 brother ; li ai "aaron" ; 26 ; september 1, 1988 ; cocky, cold, overprotective ; because her elder brother is 10 years older than her and is learning to take over the company, they don't have a lovey-dovey relationship, but they don't hate each other. they can talk sometimes, but aaron is so busy. he acts just like a business man, but a brother when he needs to. anyone hurts his little sister, he will pounce on you in a second.

friends
 
best friend child hood friend ; yang mei li ; 16 ; august 12, 1998 ; quiet, introverted ; their parents were partners since they were three years old and have been friends since then. they are like twins, minus their personalities. they get under each other's skin and make fun of each other without it being weird. they are sisters and even dana moving to korea can change that.

 friend ; im nari ; 21 ; july 6, 1994 ; chic, indecisive, domineering ; nari is the daughter of danan's father's business parter as well. she is dana's only friend in korea. and she was nice enough to let dana stay with her while she trains at big hit. nari is dana's only close friend outside of the group.

groupmate; han yeoreum ; 22 ; february 12, 1993 ; shy, bossy, mature ; yeoreum has got to be dana's favorite member in the group of various girls. because yeoreum is half chinese, she understand's dana more on different levels. yeoreum is dana's comfort unnie. plus they fit like a puzzle when it comes to skinship.


Other(s)
 unrequited admirer | jeon jungkook
 | 18 | member of bts | shy, quiet, weird | dana's not the one crushing. oh no. she's working on her career right now and isn't really phased by boys. but jeon jungkook is smitten with dana. they have never really had a real conversation, thanks to him being shy. but they aren't exactly love interests. it's really one-sided. and dana has to try to turn him down easily when he does get the balls to approach her.

Training years :  2 year
Training life : dana has to admit, her trainee life wasn't as hard as others. she got in easily while she knows a lot of others had to audition twice or three times just to get in. she was scouted and only did an audition for formalities. she only trained for two years and a couple of months and is about to debut, although she barely improved her singing. dana knows she gets special priviledges because big hit knew what they wanted to do with her when they found her. it wasn't all easy for her though. she had to move away from her family suddenly and live with a stranger basically in a country where she didn't know the language. and a lot of the female trainees at big hit that didn't make it into various lineup, resented her for that. so, she's had to deal with that struggle.
PRE-DEBUT EXP & SCANDAL
Pre-debut experience : none.

SCandal(s) : 
 - after. various' dana and seventeen's jun together?! false. fans made that up because they love the idea of them together and it makes jungkook mad.
LET'S FLY TONIGHT
comments : just hope it's okayy that dana moved two years ago and not when she was little. she understands and can speak korean well enough to express herself, but she just not as fluent as other members and often asks them for vocab words. that ok? i also collabed with cocoxoxo.
Suggestion : the girls get a debut diary!
