personality —

  ▴ shinji is the kind of person that usually behaves one way or another depending on how close or how well she knows someone. out of politeness she's friendly and would talk to someone to just break the ice even though to her it may seem out of place and awkward. this leads to shinji being easygoing as she would rather be relax and calm instead of uncomfortable and hostile in the environment. luckily shinji is able to adapt in her surrounding without totally feeling like an oddball, although she doesn't mind being a wallflower at times as well. shinji also has a great deal of having empathy for someone or something and tries to perceive many things from different perspective and not be closed-minded often. shinji can be a playful person if she has created a bond with them where their relationship can be at that level. sometimes it takes a while only because she doesn't trust so easily and usually treads the water before diving in completely. sometimes it just depends on the situation and she wants to assess it.

▴ it's how shinji is realistic. sure she's quite imaginative and open-minded, but shinji reminds herself that there are times when she has to think of real life and those around her. it's why she's reserve with people and likes to see and know how they are before becoming closer. shinji dislikes it when people judge others as many people have misjudged her lots of time, but than again she knows it's only human nature to do so. so shinji has to remind herself to not be so biased and try to be fair and see the gray within the black and white. life is never that easy. shinji knows that for sure although the struggles are never that easy to deal with, but that what makes life refreshing and the rewards favorable. anyways, shinji prefers to compromise instead of choosing or doing one over the other, unless it's sports or something easy since most things in life can be judge fairly without complicating the matters further.

▴ even if shinji can remind herself all of the positive things in life, she knows that the negativity has to come and go as well. shinji can be impulsive and say and do things that may make her regret it afterwards and may also seem insensitive and like a jerk, too. this can make shinji become stubborn if she's a firm believer of something or doesn't want change as she has been comfortable with how things have been. it could also mean the changes of doing one thing one way and now having to do it another way. sometimes it would make shinji clumsy, not because she has two left feet or is accidental prone, but because she's unfamiliar and unskilled with it all. which leads to her being absentminded at times as shinji either forgets and gets lost in the focus or is mentally tired and wants something to distract herself from it all. somehow stuff life this can make shinji passive-aggressive without her realizing it. even if she's frustrated or angry, she'll keep her composure in a calm-like way, but her voice and words will betray her as they'll come out differently then she has initially wanted it to and may sound different to the receiver.

▴ all in all, shinji usually says that she's the best example of the saying, 'don't judge a book by its cover'. shinji knows that people will already think of her one way or another not because they know her, but because they know of her or of how she portrays herself. shinji won't go out of her way to change someone's mind of what they think of her, but she will give them the opportunity to get to know her better if they wish, and to find out what kind of bond to form with her as well. so like before, shinji will act and behave one way or another depending on the level of trust, the one on one connection, the different forms of bonding, and the personal closeness she feels with someone on those many levels. for shinji, once you step into her life and want to be a part of it, she's forever got your back and will be there for you to her best ability. shinji doesn't forget those who have done her good or wrong, and pays it back ten fold except the evil part. those who done her wrong, she lets karma get back at them for that.

background

  ▴ 1992, shinji was born into a musically-oriented family. unfortunately, her birth wasn't a planned one. she was a mistake, but eventually an okay mistake. her parents had one too many drinks at one of their colleague's music function which led to shinji being conceived. she wasn't aborted as neither of her parents wanted to lose face.


  ▴ 1995, at the age of 3 it was discovered that shinji was unable to carry a tune like her siblings. she was basically tone-deaf.


  ▴ 1997, at the age of 5 it was also discovered that shinji didn't have a knack for playing instruments or much of an interest in them.


  ▴ 2000, at the age of 8, shinji became awfully aware of how musically-challenged she was within her family. her parents made it obvious while her siblings would always deny the fact and would say something like it wasn't the right time or their parents were just being too hard on her. for shinji, she tried so hard to watch and observe what her siblings did to make them be able to sing and play instruments with their parents looking at them so proudly. she tried, but it was never enough for her parents as she still couldn't sing properly or play an instrument for longer than a minute.


  ▴ 2003, at the age of 11 was when she wanted to be more and do more when she attended any of her siblings recitals and performances. seeing the audience clap and cheer when her siblings finished performing seemed so thrilling. she wanted somebody to look at her with that much admiration. it was also the year that TVXQ debuted and her sister was an avid fan. shinji felt awed at how they sang, dance, and performed so openly and lively that the audience and fans loved them. it was different from what her parents would let them watch or her siblings to perform. right then and there, shinji became highly interested in this type of world.


  ▴ 2006, at the age of 14, shinji started attending dance workshops thanks to her second brother who also enjoyed this type of style. she and him went to learn dance and to enjoy this other music world that wasn't like their parents. sure her parents didn't know, but it didn't matter much as they didn't really pay her much attention and only focused on her two older siblings whose future seemed a lot more promising then hers. her second brother wanted to do more than just play the piano and the violin. he wanted to create music and write lyrics. he found something worthy of him in that than what his parents wanted. so he knew what shinji was going through as he was the youngest child that was a little different before she came along.


  ▴ 2009, age 17 was when she started getting scouted by talent agency. many of them complimented her on her looks, but nothing beyond that. a few assumed she must have the talents like her siblings since her family was well-known as music people. she didn't deny nor confirm this. her parents forbid her to join any of these talent agency as they were just using pretty faces to get lackluster music across with no real talent in their songs and the likes. when shinji mentioned that one of talent agency wasn't a music one, but an acting agency. her parents took that into consideration of being different and agreed for her to go that way if she wanted to. as acting was different from singing. what they didn't know was that the acting agency was also a music one, as well. but shinji didn't tell them that. until it was too late and she was already old enough to choose her own life and what not.

connections

  ▴ father, jeon muyeol, 1955, pianist, doesn't approve of shinji being an idol as music is an enjoyment and something to not flash around
  ▴ mother, min youngae, 1959, violinist, also doesn't approve of shinji being an idol, same reason as her husband
  ▴ sister, jeon yeojin, 1981, singer and violinist, very supportive of shinji
  ▴ brother, jeon chiwon, 1983, singer and pianist, also super supportive of shinji
  ▴ brother, jeon jaeshin, 1985, singer-songwriter, composer, same as the other two siblings and also helps her as they're a lot closer

  ▴ cousin & labelmate, nathan jeon, 1994, member of seirios, didn't know they were related until one day shinji mentioned she had an uncle named muyoung that her father doesn't talk to much that lives in the states and nathan was like, 'that's funny. my dad's name is muyoung and i have an uncle named muyeol that my father doesn't talk to much either, but he lives in south korea' and shinji was like 'my dad's name is muyeol'. they stared at one another before trying to figure out if they were actually related as there was no way that both of their fathers are brothers with the same name and what not. boom. a picture confirmed that they're related. their fathers are twins. they've been close since.

  ▴ mentor & friend & labelmate, 'yeoeun' yong eunsung, 1988, member of essentia, yeoeun was actually the one that told shinji to audition for bluesphere upon shinji wanting to find another company. yeoeun was one of jaeshin's close friends back when they attended the same music academy and kept in touch once they graduated. yeoeun also knows the other siblings. anyways, when shinji actually joined bluesphere and was accepted, she would seek out help with yeoeun as she was really the only person she knew at the time and to thank her for leading her to this opportunity.

  ▴ labelmate & friend, kim seungmin, 1990, member of aeon, seungmin was actually sleeping when shinji came upon him unknowingly. he fell asleep after dancing in one of the practice rooms and shinji happened to enter that said dance room to practice on her own. at first seungmin was okay because it was music and it lulled him to bed. he just got annoyed when the same song kept restarting every thirty seconds as it disturbed his nap. so he finally woke up and actually observed what was going on and noticed shinji practing and she couldn't get the dance steps right. he silently judged her, but after watching her re-do and re-start it all, he let out a sigh and pointed out her mistakes and where she was going wrong. it startle her as she assumed she was the only one there. seungmin continued to tell her this and that and she silently complied to correct her mistakes. since then she's gone to seungmin for advice on dancing and other things like sleep and reading.

the love timeline

  ▴ crush & labelmate, park jiho, 1990, member of aeon, shinji has had a major crush on the guy since his debut and even upon joining the same entertainment as him even to this day, but has told no one of her crush since he and sunhye are an unconfirmed couple and didn't want that kind of thing put on her too for being a homewrecker or something and yeah, so she keeps quite. also dating someone within the same company isn't good as what her sister used to tell her as her sister and this one guy had a thing and then he left her when a foreign harpist came along and yeah that didn't sit well with shinji. but it also didn't help that jiho's a playboy and just too good-looking and believes jiho to be out of her league. and again he and yeoeun used to be shipped as an item and that they are also under the company but it made things quite awkward between them, and yeah, it's a hopeless love or a strong infatution for shinji as she believes it to be. so that's why she won't say anything. [xD]

 

comments — hi, cristal! my name is ky. ^^ this was a bit difficult to do as it wasn't your typical app for a girl group. haha, but i had fun and hope all is well with shinji! also i hope the love timeline with jiho is okay? i dunno what else to do with it except that she has like this massive crush on him. haha but i'm also considering of putting seungmin there, too, but dunno if i should or not. i kind of do if it doesn't work out with jiho, but i dunno. haha but if anything, please do let me know about any revisions i need to make. also good luck with writing out this story and choosing the characters for orion!
scenes requests — none at the moment
password — a dance sketch (cover) of Ne-Yo's Mad [click!] with Aeon's Seungmin

stage name — none
persona — the pretty all-rounder, because for whatever reason she just can't escape the label of being called 'pretty' no matter what she says or does and that her main focus while training was building up her singing, dancing, and rapping skills for her own personal reason to separate herself from her vocally talented siblings. she doesn't want to be the best in one area, but just good enough in more than one area.
fanclub + colour — b.u (as in at first ugly to counter balance the pretty/ugly term that shinji or her fans had no problem with as it was realism and not a fantasy sort of thing, but now it just means to 'be you' for all that you are and that is what matters the most), dark sea green #9BC9B dancing queen
trainee experience — 5 years (2 years at fantagio from 2009-2011, 3 years at bluesphere from 2011-present).

 

shinji was originally going to be an actress as that was what her and her parents agreed upon when she signed up with fantagio. but eventually shinji wanted to be something more and not just acting and so she also partook in singing, dancing, and rapping lessons to also be an idol as well without her parents knowledge. it wasn't until she left fantagio on good terms and auditioned for bluesphere upon her brother's friend's suggestion. when her parents learned that she wanted to be an idol singer, they tried to persuade her to not continue this path, but with her siblings' persuasion, the parents just told her to do whatever she wanted to do as they didn't care what career she wanted now as they had their other kids whose career was just as amazing as an idol's life.

 

anyways, to shinji, while acting training was easier to take up as she had to focus on projecting her voice and working on her facial expression and how she walk and such. but during idol training, shinji had it rough. she wasn't used to practicing a lot or for long hours while doing the same routine over and over. plus it was having little sleep to function coherently that kind of messed her up as well. plus a lot of the other trainees believed that she didn't have the talent and she was nothing more than a pretty face who only got in based on her looks. they told her she was wasting her time with all this. a lot of the female trainees told shinji that even if she could carry a tune or dance amazingly or even rap with such flow, her pretty face is what everyone will always notice first and only focus on without paying attention to her overall performance.

 

not gonna lie, that made shinji cried on the inside and what she believed to be the truth for a long while, but she knew that she was more than that. she had to. she had to see that she had something worthy for her to be more than somebody based on her looks. and so she wanted to prove everyone that had ever doubted her that she could be a somebody that mattered and that she had skills and talents through her own hard work. shinji mainly wanted to prove this for her own self and that she could make it and stand on that stage with her head up high. she would prove to them that she could handle it and that she would work twice as much just to make sure for her own self, too. she couldn't quit when all of her life she was told she wouldn't amount to anything, but just a pretty little doll face.

scandals and rumours —

▴ 2014
- ORI★N's Shinji Is Using Her Name to Debut -
RUMOR: TRUE & FALSE
It was speculation that she was using the musically talented Jeon Muyeol and his family's name to gain popularity to debut as an idol with ease. Shinji didn't know how people found out she was the daughter of Muyeol and Youngae, the sister of Yeojin and Chiwon and Jaeshin. True she was related to them, but it was false that she was using them to make a name for herself. She wanted to do this on her own accord and on her own merit.

 

▴ 2014
- Seirios' Nathan and ORI★N's Shinji Are Actually Related -
RUMOR: TRUE & FALSE
[look at connections. lol] It was true they were cousins, but they both just found out that they were and so Shinji wasn't using Nathan to debut. Again, it brought up the past rumor and spectulation.

 

▴ 2015
- Aeon's Seungmin and ORI★N's Shinji Caught Dating -
FALSE
Seungmin and Shinji are close as he reminds her of her second brother a lot. Plus they have some similar interests in common. It didn't help that a lot of Seungmin's fans are obsessive and delusional about him and just dislike the fact that it's not them that's near him. At first it was okay, but then it wasn't once Shinji actually debuted. It was all because of Shinji and Seungmin frequenting this one bookstore on their free time and would read there for hours. Since then, the two don't go together anymore because of this.

— ★ —

what made her want to become an idol?

  — she dreamed to perform. she dreamed to be on stage. it was hard to do that when you weren't as vocally talented off the bat and so at first it seemed the same to be able to showcase herself like how her siblings were able to sing and carry a tune without being in the constant limelight. plus, it would be something different as neither of her siblings were going this route to be an idol celebrity. she figured she could be the first one and that she did have the musical talents within herself even if she had to improve it on her own accord.

does she like being an idol?

  — yes and no. the down side of being an idol was that she hated the fact of having cameras flashing in her face and her privacy being intruded upon. also there were those schedules you had to keep up with and the likes. eventually she got used to it and it became a part of her life. the up side of this was she could express herself and reached out to the fans' hearts. she just remembered them and it helped settled out the down sides. the other down side one as that none of her parents were supportive of her decision, but at least she knew her siblings had her back.

HOW DID/DOES SHE FEEL TOWARD THE NEW/ORIGINAL MEMBERS?

  — she was a bit uneasy as she didn't know how they would be as the group had already debuted while these new members were well newbies. also with how it would be like with the fans and what not. she eventually warmed up to them as they were just like her in wanting to pursue a dream and showcasee that to the world.

WHAT does she wish for orion?

  — she wishes for orion to continue to grow and achieve whatever dreams they wish to pursue as a group and as individuals if it comes to it. as long as the memories remain. the good, the bad, and all the ones in-between.

WHAT are her goals/wishes after orion?

  — after getting a taste and living the dream of performing, she feels like she has done enough and is satisfied with her music career as she believed she proved herself enough. she'll quit the music industry and actually open up her own small bakery cafe while displaying a lot of orion's things to make it feel like home and a tribute. having a quiet life outside the music biz seemed more enjoyable now as she wants to date freely and settle down to start a family without the invasion of privacy and making peace with the fans and the likes. [if she's chosen, i was wondering if she could maybe pursue a relationship with seungmin (if they're friendship moves on to one of liking) or with jiho (if he and sunhye break or something, i dunno, and shinji finally reveals her crush towards him). lol]

the pretty
