FULL NAME — sung bada ( 성바다 ).
NICKNAMES
yeppeubada : this extremely corny yet actually rather creative nickname came from joohee, and it stuck. many have wanted to use the nickname as well but joohee has made them stop doing so and claimed it to be her private endearment for bada.
• yeppeuba : since joohee claimed the nickname, the soleil members, who wanted to use the nickname but was stopped by a raging joohee who stormed to their dorm, they settled for this unoriginal version and call her this on television as well, so it's also what the fans call her.
• daeyang : used by hyunwoo, as he now says bada is more than a mere sea and is an ocean, so he started calling her daeyang, literally 'ocean', instead. this nickname arose the first day they met because hyunwoo took one look at bada and joked that she didn't fit the name because she wasn't as pretty as ses' bada.
• derivatives : sung, ba, da, baba, dada etc.
 
DOB + AGE — march second, nineteen ninety-three : age twenty-three.
BIRTHPLACE — byeolnae-dong, namyangju-si, gyeonggi-do, south korea
HOMETOWN — byeolnae-dong, namyangju-si, gyeonggi-do, south korea
ETHNICITY — korean.
LANGUAGES — 
korean : her mothertongue. 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 : not a language bada is good at. merely conversational, she wouldn't know the basics if it wasn't a compulsory subject at school. c9 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.
FACE CLAIM이루다 : wjsn.
BACKUP남다원 of wjsn.
APPEARANCE
• the walking definition of  genteel delicacy, bada is nothing short of being ethereal. dyed chestnut tresses that fall behind slim shoulders to a shockingly tiny waist as the chestnut create a stark contrast with her face which obviously lacks melanin, bada 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. bada'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. with a svelte silhouette, bada'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, bada's hair was darker than the average korean and the perfect jet black was envied by many. however, c9 decided to dye it chestnut before soleil 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. 
HEIGHT & WEIGHT — 157 cm + 42kg : bmi 17.0
FASHION SENSE
• it's safe to say that bada's style can be summed up with one word: refined. feminine and polished, saying that bada is a cultured fashionista would be an understatement. her wardrobe is 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 soleil 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, bada 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. bada 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 sung bada?' and phones flashing around her.

ostentatious
ELABORATION —

an angelic chef d'oueuvre often alluded to perfection, sung bada is a walking masterpiece, a mixture of good genes and respectable personality, a representation of how unfair god can be. the newest gem of c9 and a rising visual in the idol industry, soleil's sung bada 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 bada was born to be in the spotlight. her introverted and feminine personality is loved and hated by many equally, and when bada looks through the articles about herself and sees her fans defending her antis' words of "sung bada just wants fame", she hates herself for agreeing with what the antis write. 
 
[+283, -51] daeyang really is very pretty and lovable, but she's useless. what was her company thinking? they usually put out such solid soloists... cheetah, for example, then you have this mess.
[+548, -498] perfect example of debuting just because of a pretty face. ten years of training has done practically nothing. how very similar to twice's jihyo, but at least jihyo is an average singer.
[+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? daeyang 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! 
[+112, -98] she's still a kid. stop.

 
 
associate with those of good quality with utmost grace and elegance in her step, there's a reason why bada 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 even though she's one of the youngest members, has the urge to take care of the other members, and sometimes ends up being imperious, taking up the role of the leader when c9 didn't give it to her because of her, frankly, incompetence. while very introverted, bada doesn't like sugarcoating the truth. if she has something to say, she'll say it without hesitating. her brain to mouth filter, or rather, 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 members since they think bada honestly has no right to judge them. bada 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, bada 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 sung youngjae and nam hyeri on march 2nd in 1993, bada 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 ten. to bada'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.

thirteen year old bada tried again in 2006, auditioning at sm, yg, loen and pledis. she was rejected from all of them. at that time, c9 a relatively unknown company, was ( aggressively ) conducting open auditions to get trainees. bada auditioned, and the company was enthralled by her beauty. they decided that skills could be cultivated, and since visuals like bada didn't audition every day at a small company like theirs, they signed her on. 

to their disappointment, bada's skills could not be cultivated. simply put, she had no talent in performing. two years of extensive training in singing and dancing and bada was average at best. but she didn't give up, nor did she change companies. she was aware no other company would take such a trainee. 

she knows that c9 merely hope bada's face will rake in the fans and the funds and she knows she's going to be panned. but she knows that she's going to make a name for herself.

bada 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 23, she still hasn't finished her first year.

first to wake and last to sleep, bada's lifestyle is nowhere as glamorous as the public think it might be. fatigue consumes her daily but if she ever gets hurt the company is nice enough to let her 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.

all along bada has been going against her contract: she's not happy.
 
RELATIONSHIPS — 

BEST FRIENDS - shin joohee (23) - fashion design assistant - abrasive, acerbic, vivacious, altruistic -

joohee and bada 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, joohee and bada are the walking definition of opposites attract. if it isn't obvious by now, bada 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. joohee is rather loud and playful, and when around bada, she's usually the one chatting bada's ear off, and many think it's a wonder how bada doesn't get annoyed at joohee's endless rambling.








EXES - kang taehyun (25) - song producer at c9 - reliable, pragmatic, dutiful, inarticulate taehyun and bada first met when the former entered c9 as a trainee in 2008. their friendly senior-junior relationship soon blossomed into something more. taehyun fell for bada because her feminine and introverted nature and bada just adored the refined and composed aura around him. they were the couple who enjoyed walks hand in hand around seoul and would hang back after training in a secluded training room, bada's head on taehyun's shoulder as they just talked about their day with their hands entwined. their relationship actually went on for a solid four years, which was pretty shocking as many considered them to be teenagers in puppy love. taehyun was 21 and bada 19 when their relationship started getting rocky. he was agitated at the fact he still hadn't debuted and often took our his pent up frustrations and anger on bada, and thereafter left the company without even telling her. recently, however, taehyun has returned to c9 after the ceo's personal request and is now a producer... for soleil, of all things.








notable idol friends include lee hyoeun of stellar, shin hyunseong of boyfriend, lee byunghyun of teen top, mark tuan of got7 and lim nayoung of ioi.

TRIVIA
on stage, she's always stuck in dresses and pumps. she's never worn pants on stage. 

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, ignoring positive comments yet fighting the urge to cry at negative ones.

her back is hunched and her bones are actually slightly askew because she's always hunching. it's not that severe and surgery is not necessary, though bada does want better posture and is contemplating one.

she falls asleep easily and is a very deep sleeper. alarm clocks prove futile and the members blare loud edm in her ear to wake her up.

her instagram, which was set up 100 days after debut, has the username soleil_bada. she has around  29k followers. her bio is "SOLEIL'S BADA 030293" and a korean flag behind it. 

bada is actually extremely insecure about her face and so rarely posts selfies. even her icon for her instagram is an official picture.

around half a year after debuts she starts to get immense mood swings and panic attacks due to the stress and negativity.

whenever she gets nervous she starts scratching her inner forearms and won't stop even if they're all red. c9 makes the stylists cut her nails a lot. 
STAGE NAME — daeyang [ 대양 ] yes, this was inspired from hyunwoo, but not because she likes him. when choosing stage names she told c9 she didn't want to be just a sea, she wanted to be an ocean, taking hyunwoo's words.
POSITION — vocalist, sub-rapper, face of the group.
 
TRAINING YEARS — ten years.
TRAINING LIFE — having trained since 2006, bada is undoubtedly one of the oldest and longest trainees at c9. 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. 

PREDEBUT WORKS — 
• a brief appearance in labelmate olltii's 31035 ( 2013 )
• brief apperance at the end of younha & jung joonyoungs' just the way you are ( 2014 ).
• appearance in jjy band's omg ( 2015 ).
SCANDALS — 
rising rookie, soleil's bada dating? the article had fuzzy pictures of bada hugging a male. the pictures were fuzzy but as she wasn't wearing a hoodie or a mask it was pretty obvious it was her. funny thing is the male was her cousin, so c9 released a snarky statement saying that was not encouraged within the company.
soleil's bada dating c9 producer! while bada took down all pictures of her and taehyun, taehyun did not, so of course netizens found pre-2010 pictures of them kissing and being very lovey-dovey. there was no denying this so c9 had to say that they dated but broke up a few years back and they now only have a professional relationshop. the netizens don't believe this and still assume that bada is dating.
• soleil's bada abused by members or company? bada had had a panic attack the night before soleil attended an event and even though she had been wearing long sleeves, the sleeves were lose and some of her scratched peeked out when she raised her arm. many deduced that soleil had discord between members, c9 was abusing trainees, or kang taehyun was just rough. c9 released a statement stating that bada merely hurt herself, and that no, taehyun and bada really aren't dating.
soleil's bada posts picture of her and boyfriend... "not kang taehyun, okay guys?" bada got so fed up at the assumptions of her and taehyun and the horrible edits of them two together ever since people saw her scratches she went and posted a
picture of her and hyunwoo kissing. c9's publicity department was in a huge frenzy. this happened around 1-1 1/2 years after debut.
• soleil's newst song, bada has no parts? officially, bada has a few lines, but because the song was so heavy on vocals c9 knew bada couldn't be able to sing it live without being bashed, so they only gave her harmonising lines where the main vocal would sing with her as well. this brought light to bada's inabliity and she got so pressured she almost stopped all activities.

LOVE STORY
• the first time bada heard hyunwoo was when the two cha siblings were aruging and subin proceeded to turn on the speaker just so the rest of the girls could hear "how irrational he is". the words hyunwoo spewed left a bad impression on bada. 
• the first time they truly met, however, was when soleil had finally finished all their preparations for their debut and was granted a day to rest before the music video teaser was posted the next day. hyunwoo visited the dorm and it was bada opening the door, wondering who this cute and short man was. granted, bada was even shorter, but a lifetime of looking up at people gave her expereince in knowing who was extraordinarily tall and who wasn't, and this man in front of her was one of the most petite she'd ever seen. "is my sister here?" he had mumbled gruffly and bada had been so surprised that this man was the one cursing subin-unnie??? he pushed her out of the way to get through and got smacked by subin.
• bada downright disliked hyunwoo. but the frequent visits to the dorm and the gentle words he said when he wasn't arguing with subin made bada change her views towards him. she saw him as someone gentle and mature yet somewhat childish and the two became friends. 
• bada's feminine and demure nature always gives people the image that she'd be a good girlfriend, loyal wife and kind mother ( there's a reason why she's so popular in the army as well ) and taehyun didn't miss out on that as well. subin could see that hyunwoo was starting to develop feelings for bada and even though subin telling them that their yeppeuba was off-limits, hyunwoo didn't care. 
• the fatherly side of hyunwoo made bada attracted to him. it might be because taehyun's personality was slightly similar, but either way, bada was able to move on from taehyun incredibly quickly after she met hyunwoo even though she had dwelled on her ex for years. the spark was there and everyone could see it. it wasn't long before they went out alone on friendly dates and a few months into soleil's debut hyunwoo had confessed. bada had gladly accepted and tentatively told c9. they sighed, shook their heads and told them to lie low for a bit. they could date, but it was best if they kept the dates indoors as soleil just debuted.

subin, circa 2016: so now I'm sister-in-law insstead of mom??
 
RELATIONSHIP — at the beginning of the story they're still in the honeymoon period, and are the sweetest couple the soleil members have ever seen. they have lots of skinship and the members always find themselves walking into the living room, seeing the bada's legs on hyunwoo's lap and her head on his shoulder as she sits next tohim, heave a huge sigh, and u-turn back into their room. they mutter sweet nothings into each others' ears and give small pecks every now and then.

further along the excessive sweetness is gone but the members still have to u-turn out of rooms because the couple has exceeded the stage of pecking and are having longer kisses that have subin gagging. they rarely fight and have a rather serene relationship, just enjoying each other's company instead of chatting.
STATUS — friends → secretly dating → openly dating
 
RELATIONSHIP STATEMENT — you're so sweet like honey / you made my heart flutter / falling in love / you & I it's a new beginning — kisum ft. hwasa's love talk
FINAL WORDS
I don't even know when c9 was established. and I can't think of media play articles what's wrong with me :( also the love interest is messy but hopefully you get the gist of it.
SCENE SUGGESTIONS —
• the members think bada's panic attacks are getting better but subin walks right into another one as bada scratches so hard she draws blood.
 
PASSWORD —
retro : spica's you don't love me : also the song which showed that bada couldn't sing

bohemian(?) : spica's tonight : this should just be a sub-unit without bada tbh

idek what this is : d.holic's chewy
