ETHNICITY korean
LANGUAGES
korean is her mothertongue, and she's fluent, channeling a seoul dialect. her voice is pretty hushed and her talking speed is slower than average. one word to describe her voice would be feminine, as she's developed fully. whenever the group appears on radio shows, listeners usually comment that her voice is especially pleasing and soothing to the ears.
english is not a language yoona is good at. merely conversational, she wouldn't know the basics if it wasn't a compulsory subject at school. star empire gave lessons, but she never really paid attention and only has the basics down. she fails to maintain daily conversation, and her accent is incredibly obvious.

APPEARANCE the walking definition of genteel delicacy, yoona is nothing short of being ethereal. having dyed jet black tresses that fall behind slim shoulders to a shockingly tiny waist as the black creates a stark contrast with her face which obviously lacks melanin, yoona fits the almost unattainable standards of korean beauty perfectly. long lashes frame wide eyes with natural aegyo sals that form a perfect ratio with her ( surgically altered ) straght nose and cherubic lips that are always stretched into a smile. yoona's figure, to be blunt, isn't especially curvy, but with long, slender limbs, she shows up on sites such as us pann and naver regularly, mostly on posts talking about the prettiest rookies of the year. some fans complain why she isn't the visual regularly. with a svelte silhouette, yoona's been a beauty since young. her shoulders are always pulled back and her head held high with poise and elegance when she's sitting, standing or walking. when walking she keeps her arms by her side and rarely swings them. furthermore, you'd seldom see her with a spring in her step: every step she takes is even and sometimes she seems like she's gliding through the crowd.
before debut, yoona's hair was lighter than the average korean and the brown was obvious under the sunlight. star empire, however, decided to dye it jet black before i love you debuted in order to highlight her facial features. while most don't really notice any differences between her and her pre-debut pictures, experts will be able to spot that she's had a minor rhinoplasty and as she's frequently using double eyelid tape nowdays, is considering double eyelid surgery as well.

FASHION it's safe to say that yoona's style can be summed up with one word: refined. feminine and polished, saying that yoona is a cultured fashionista would be an understatement. her wardrobe an organized array of plain colours and pretty much no patterns, she's frequently seen in ted baker and burberry. her usual everyday outfit, when not promoting as part of i love you and when she's finally out of the dresses with frills and bright colours that she honestly hates wearing, is a white, chiffon blouse with black jeggings. however, just because she doesn't like the outfits she wears as an idol, yoona does wear dresses and skirts in her free time. it's just rarely her first choice of garment, but when she feels like it and finds skirts to fit the top she has in mind, she'd gladly wear one. yoona has a soft spot for long sleeves, and during summer you'd be able to catch her in long-sleeved, thin shirts tucked in high-waisted shorts. her favourite season, though, is winter, because that's the time of the year where she can whip out her large coats and put them on her shoulders, strutting through the chilly roads of seoul as she enjoys being the center of attention, whispers of 'is that kim yoona?' and phones flashing around her.

ELABORATION
an angelic chef d'oueuvre often alluded to perfection, kim yoona is a walking masterpiece, a mixture of good genes and respectable personality, a representation of how unfair god can be. the newest gem of star empire and a rising visual in the idol industry, i love you's kim yoona has been riding on waves of overhype as well as having the burdens of improving and harsh reality on her shoulders ever since debut. always put in the middle of group photos and dance formations, there is no denying that yoona was born to be in the spotlight. her introverted and feminine personality is loved and hated by many equally, and when yoona looks through the articles about herself and sees her fans defending her antis' words of "kim yoona just wants fame", she hates herself for agreeing with what the antis write.
[+283, -51] kayoon really is very pretty and lovable, but she's useless. what was her company thinking?
[+548, -498] perfect example of debuting just because of a pretty face. seven years of training has done practically nothing.
[+108, -201] it's funny how she always tries to act like the leader when she isn't, and is the most useless one ㅋㅋ I think she's just an idol because she likes being famous.
[+309, -107] can't you guys give her a break? kayoon might not be the most talent idols out there, but I've met her once and she's a very reserved and sweet person. she's still a rookie, she has time to improve!

associate with those of good quality with utmost grace and elegance in her step, there's a reason why yoona is one of the most popular idols of recent times. if it isn't because of the everlasting smile on her exquisite face, then it's because of the dignified aura she gives off. the living embodiment of rule and order, she's sometimes known as the 'father' of the group because of her need for order and her constant repression of the members' silly antics, and such actions, much to some of her members' chagrin, happen both on and off camera. another lovable quirk is her shyness- her embarassed smiles and heated face are simply make it easier for people to fall for her. she treats everyone with equality and as the oldest member, has the urge to take care of the other younger members, and sometimes ends up being imperious, taking up the role of the leader when star empire didn't give it to her because of her, frankly, incompetence. while very introverted, yoona doesn't like sugarcoating the truth. if she has something to say, she'll say it without hesitating. her brain to mouth filter, or, her lack of it creates fights between the members a lot and needless to say, she's not exactly close with some of the louder, younger members since they think yoona honestly has no right to judge them. yoona just means well, but is incapable of shaping her statements into warm words.
for it is better to be alone than be in bad company hidden beneath the impeccable exterior the spotlights shine on is a shockingly insincere maiden who yearns for attention yet gets hurt by it. she knows when to say the truth and when to beautify it to be favoured by magnates, and is remarkably two-faced, putting on a smile and letting it drop when she's alone. since young she's loved being complimented for her beauty, which can be considered one of the largest reasons for her to step onto the journey of being a trainee and debuting. as if she was born to merely impress, yoona takes great care in shaping a flawless image for the fans to scream over and for the cameras to take pictures of. she loves reading the posts that rave over her beauty and the fanchants that say her name, but as someone who takes her image and fame very seriously, she's very sensitive to negative comments as well, and tends to be very insecure and belittle herself regularly, hating herself for being untalented and, to some, not pretty enough.
BACKGROUND
born to kim jisung and nam hyeri on june 21st in 1994, yoona grew up with praises and endless admiration. an only child, she loved the spotlight and her dream was to be famous; many believed that she would be able to accomplish the said dream. her parents, lenient, approved and would excitedly drive her around seoul to attend different auditions when she was merely eleven. to yoona's disappointment, she was rejected, albeit the sparkle in the judges' eyes every time they first laid eyes on her her — she noticed the sparkle died down as soon as she started singing. all the companies praised her visuals but said that her talent wasn't enough, and that she should try again when she was older.
fourteen year old yoona tried again in 2008, auditioning at sm, yg, loen and pledis. she was rejected from all of them. at that time, star empire, a relatively unknown company, was ( aggressively ) conducting open auditions to get trainees for a new girl group and a new boy group, which would be nine muses and ze:a in the future. yoona auditioned, and the company was enthralled by her beauty, and decided that skills could be cultivated, but such visuals like yoona didn't audition every day at a small company like theirs, and signed her on.
to their disappointment, yoona's skills could not be cultivated. simply put, she had no talent in performing. two years of extensive training in singing and dancing and yoona was average at best. needless to say, then the initial lineup for nine muses was announced, she wasn't on the list. but she didn't give up, nor did she change companies. she was aware no other company would take such a trainee.
with ryu sera's departure in 2014, yoona was sure she'd finally be able to debut. to her exhilaration, she was training together with the muses. but her world crashed down when she was pulled out and lee keumjo replaced her instead. letting herself break down and scaring all the trainees with her anger, she cried when she heard the news, screaming and shouting and throwing a tantrum. the next sentence, however, stopped her short.
"I'm not done yet, kim yoona. you will be debuting in 2016 under i love you."
yoona knows that this is star empire's last resort. she knows that they hope yoona's face will rake in the funds they need so desperately. she knows that she's going to make a name for herself.

yoona knows that this is star empire's last resort. she knows that they hope yoona's face will rake in the funds they need so desperately. she knows that she's going to make a name for herself.
LIFESTYLE
yoona returns to the dorms latest and leaves the earliest. sometimes it's because of her endless schedules, other times it's because she was practicing, hoping to improve. she never hogs the bathroom and showers the quickest out of all the members, using cold water even in winter. she's been on hold from school ever since she graduated high school and got into sungshin women's university's college of social sciences ( she was rejected from sopa for a reason ), but at age 21, she still hasn't finished her first year.
first to wake and last to sleep, yoona's lifestyle is nowhere as glamorous as the public think it might be. fatigue consumes her daily and if she ever gets hurt the company boots her out of hospital right after a checkup, ignoring the doctor's suggestions to stay longer for better treatment. she wakes up as early as five and can spend more than twenty four hours working. there is no specific way to pinpoint how her schedule or lifestyle actually is because it's just way too hectic.

TRIVIAS
both her instagram (231k followers) and twitter (194k followers) use the same username: kimyoona_ly. she rarely uses twitter but often posts on instagram. her feed mostly consists of selfies ( alone or with others ), unreleased cuts of photoshoots she's done, presents from fans, and places she's at. she's obsessed about her feed and uses c3 from vsco. she's considering opening a snapchat.
it's welll known between fans that she can hold spices and alcohol really well. as in really, really, well. she downs alcohol without blinking an eye and shoves spicy food down without choking.
to say that yoona likes skinship would be an understatement. she's always backhugging the members and leaning on them. she pats their butts frequently as well, though she stays away from the member she's not friendly with.
on stage, she's always stuck in dresses and pumps. she's never worn pants on stage.
star empire didn't force her to go on a diet. in fact, they made her eat more. blessed ( or cursed? ) with fast metabolism and a small appetite, she's always been severely underweight and star empire was afraid that rumours of them abusing trainees would float around if yoona was too thin.
she reads up comments about the group and herself daily. she squeezes time out between schedules and scrolls through pann and naver on the car, smiling at positive comments and fighting the urge to cry at negative ones.
while some choose to dance or go out to have fun to release their stress, yoona likes staying at the dorm and bounce a stress ball while watching dramas during their free days. she also watched movies, and the members have hinted at it during broadcast.
the only reason yoona isn't listed as a visual is because star empire didn't want backlash.
her sole predebut experiece would be acting in ze:a's breathe in 2014, acting with...dongjun, of all people.
inspiration is running dry. might add more.

RELATIONSHIPS
lee keumjo / 23 / idol (nine muses)
—yoona holds a petty, one-sided rivalry towards keumjo. yoona was placed in the lineup for nine muses when sera left the group, and along with jo sojin, trained together with the girls. but then yoona was dropped from the lineup and was replaced with keumjo. yoona herself knows that, albeit she being the prettiest trainee star empire had, keumjo was way more talented than she was. she knows that keumjo deserves to be a muse more than her, but just can't help feeling hurt whenever she sees keumjo. the latter knows of her feelings, and tries to be nice to yoona, feeling apologetic, but not really sorry. yoona heself thinks she's being too petty, but can't help being cold and sarcastic to keumjo.

joo sora / 21 / student
— sora and yoona have been friends forever. and by forever, I mean their parents went to buy baby supplies together. starting from forced playmates to genuine best friends, sora and yoona are the walking definition of opposites attract. if it isn't obvious by now, yoona is closer to her friends who aren't celebrities than her celebritiy friends, or even her groupmates. even though their different lives and busy schedules keep them from meeting up face-to-face, daily texts and weekly facetimes keep their friendship incredibly strong. sora is rather loud and playful, and when around yoona, she's usually the one chatting yoona's ear off, and joon thinks it's a wonder how yoona doesn't get annoyed at sora's endless rambling.

heo joon / 21 / student
— joon has been yoona's friend since they were thirteen. every single person at school believed they were dating, and proclaimed them to be the most photogenic couple, despite yoona and joons' protests. but it was true they harboured a small crush on each other, but when yoona went and became a trainee, they chose to move on from their so-called 'first love'. they're still pretty good friends and after appearing on yoona's instagram quite a few times, his number of followers have boomed and he's semi-famous himself. they now tease each other about their crushes. currently, joon's enjoying being showered with gifts by multiple girlfriends.

STAGENAME kayoon; pronounced kay-yoon. using her birth name would draw backlash so star empire gave her kayoon. using 'kim' and 'yoon' to form k.yoon seemed way too, I quote the staff, "rapper" for yoona, so they put 'k(ay)' and 'yoon' together. yoona's pretty content with it.
POSITION vocalist, dancer.
TRAINEE PERIOD & LIFE
having trained since 2008, yoona is undoubtedly one of the oldest and longest trainees at star empire, if not the. her trainee life was incredibly tough for her, as she spent all her might practicing and training only to be slammed during every monthly evaluation. her singing was unstable and airy, her dancing lacked energy, and the rap trainer gave up on her after two months. now, her singing's gotten more stable, but her range is still pretty narrow, and her dancing is average. on the bright side, she was well liked by all the trainees and because of her courteous nature, the trainers had a soft spot for her as well. the main reason the trainees like her so much was because of the fact that they knew she was absolutely hopeless and didn't even see her as competition. because of that, they saw no harm in befriending the demure girl.

LOVE STORY
dongjun and yoona met in the middle of 2009, when both were trainees, with dongjun being seventeen and yoona being fifteen. their personalities clicked and they became fast friends, being each other's pillar of strength during their trainee days. both were teenagers and it didn't surprise anyone when they started acting very ambiguous, sometimes being like friends, sometimes more.
meeting each other to dongjun asking yoona out all happened in a span of five months. both acted recklessly and their relationship was based on pure attraction. nevertheless, their whirlwind romance ended when ze:a debuted in january 2010. dongjun was intent on keeping their relationship, but yoona was more rational and knew that they were still in their honeymoon period and things would get ugly afterwards. furthermore, she was in no position to date a rising and promising idol. she broke it off, but they remained amiable and close friends.
till now, yoona still has feelings left for dongjun, and vice versa. but with yoona telling herself that she couldn't drag dongjun down and dongjun telling himself that leaving yoona alone would help her focus, they both avoided the topic and believed they were doing so for the greater good. it still breaks yoona's heart every time he sees dongjun kissing in a drama or acting chummy with other females, but she reckons that she has no place and no right to judge.

COMMENTS to be honest I don't find irene that pretty, but I'll go with the word of korean netizens. the love interest section is noticeably very rushed, I apologize for that. I was hoping to turn this in as quick as possible. it'd be easier to sum the love interest section with one word: unrequited. whether dongjun and yoona end up together, move on from each other, or just keep that heartbreaking relationship is completely up to you. I had fun filling in this app, and I hope you enjoyed reading it.
