who I am

  

PERSONALITY TRAITS: bright/happy, funny, wise, caring | absent-minded, too relaxed, obnoxious, insecure
PERSONALITY:

'hey we both like sailor moon, let's be friends!' if you ever had the pleasure to meet this person, then happy is the first word that will come to your mind. she is a ray of sunshine that always has a positive mindset towards everything. she faces everything with a smile first because she believes frowning is the first step towards sadness. the trait that comes along with this is the fact that she make friends really fast. she greets everyone with a wide smile and especially if its a stranger, she'll immediately approach them. this makes her a fairly good and eloquent talker especially towards stranger. she doesn't get it when someone is so afraid to aproach someone, just be nice and positive! she's a really approachable person since she doesn't mind it when someone wants to communicate with her. socialising makes you happy, and being happy is nice thing!
 
'omg dudes i look like a swag teletubbies with this hat' sometimes it's not her sense of humour that is funny, it's her reactions. she shows it in a way that is exaggerated and funny that it will make others laugh because of her ridiculousness. her favourite action is laughing until you trample to the floor, at rare occasion she couldn't stop laughing at all and it will take more than half an hour to calm her down. she also make the most weirdest comment like how a certain building looks like a whale smoking or an art that looks like someone just vomited paint (or that swag teletubbies). moreover is her dumbfounded expression whenever she's caught off guard or surprised. she's just like frozen there with a dumb expression and then she'll be like so confused that she could only say '...heh?'
 
'maybe you should stop following her if she only hurts you?' shigure, on really rare moments, is surprisingly  wise, and it comes when you least expected it. if you're telling stories with her or simply pouring your heart out, you'll expect that she'll say something funny to cheer you up. but much to that person's surprise, she actually gives a rational and logical solution towards the problem. and well, it surprises most of the people because she always gives out advices when they least expected it. shigure herself doesn't even realise that she said something incredibly big and sometimes say that she got 'carried away with her words'. she's always surprised when she's in the middle of being 'carried away with her words' and then the person is just like 'OMG SHINOZAKI THAT'S IT!!' '...what? what is it?'
 
'please don't say that about nano, you're offending me' for shigure, friendship and family is the thing that you must keep close and cherish all the time because nothing could replace someone that is dear to your heart. she shows extreme kindness and compassion towards those who she considered as her family. she also shows great concern if they feel uncomfortable with something or if they feel sad. she felt like it's her job to make them smile all the time because she'll also could feel the sadness from them, and she doesn't like being sad. sometimes this trait could come off as being over protective. one of the case is when her best friend got mocked by another classmate and she was raging the hell out of her own head whilst her best friend must be the one who calms her down. she gets emotional or bad tempered really easily if someone bad mouths the ones that she love
 
'...i think i left my phone at the restaurant...' the negative trait that is most visible is the fact that she stares into blank spaces when she's silent. and she tends to forget the little things, which is quite important cause she usually will forget all the little things and panic (you'll be seeing her running around the halls of the studio yelling 'WHERE THE HELL IS THAT GODDAMN RING???'). when she first noticed that she had lost something, she just froze and the dumbfounded look on her face is so visible. then she panics while asking everyone where is the thing that she's looking for (usually at the most obvious places). and while she's looking at it, there is a 95% possibility that she already found it, places it somewhere then forgot where she places it. and when i said 95% it means it happens all the time. when she found the things that she need at the most obvious me, she'll suddenly laugh 'OMG I'M SUCH A DUMB DUMB' while continue laughing, not minding the people who's looking at her weirdly
 
'dudes chill, we can like finish this tomorrow before the deadline' i think the other and more simpler word to describe this trait is her ability to procrastinate without really worrying about it. but she prefers it with the word of being too 'chill'. if you're working an important project with her, then it's best that you won't appoint her as the leader. she'll take you out to play instead of working really, and when you bring up the subject then she'll just shush you and tells you to enjoy life as it is. she'll start working at it for like...2 or a day before the deadline. if you put her in charge then she'll just shrug her shoulder 'i mean, if you want to work it alone then fine. i'll tell the counselor that we split up and works on it individually'. and her finishing job is not always smooth or squeaky clean good. i mean, it's 'okay' and you could totally see that it's rushed. but for her what matters is that they did it by the deadline. if she goes out of the deadline, then she really panic
 
'hey...hey...HEEYYY!! LIIISSTEEENNNN!!!' in somewhat someway, you'll find her a bit obnoxious. well not a bit obnoxious, if you're really close to her then sometimes you'll be annoyed of her presence. she really like to mess around even during serious time, since she doesn't really like pressure and changes everything into playtime. she likes to bother her friend when they're working, like showing them things that are unimportant or tugging at their clothes just to make them annoyed. she'll also pretend that something important happened to make them panic but then it's nothing. when they ask why, she says because 'their expression is priceless'. what makes people more upset is because she's unaffected by their anger, she'll even laugh it out. but she'll end up apologizing if it's too offensive...after she's done with laughing
 
'/chuckles/ i mean...i'm a disgusting human being, there's no doubt in it' shigure puts up a fun and confident person as a front, but she's never the kind of person that is strong against criticism. she'll instantly crumble down when someone makes fun of her or mocks her in a serious way, she's actually a sensitive person from the heart. but if someone asked her if she's okay then she'll laugh it out saying that it only 'pinched her a bit' (as in pinching her until her skin came off and she's bleeding). usually she puts the words seriously and rather make a bit sarcastic towards it. there was a time when someone said that she 'failed as a human being' because she couldn't move on from her first love. it hits her so hard that the next day when the same person called her out because she couldn't finish an advanced equation (in which that person can't solve by the way), shigure said 'well i'm sorry, i failed as a human being remember?' or 'oh why don't you try to solve it, mr.i-am-the-most-perfect-human-being-ever'. she doesn't really cry much about it, but when she's tired or upset, she either ignores it or took it harder than before

BACKGROUND: 
(i'm just going to write some important pointers in her background)

welp there's nothing really interesting in her childhood days expect for that one certain day when she was born and that faithful day where she meet her twin nano. to put it simply, her and nano had a quite bad start because they were fighting over the same toy train. nano ended up crying because shigure pushed him off and forcefully took the toy train from him. when she sees him crying, she felt bad and decided to give him the toy train but then he pushed her away until she fell and now we have two crying kids (what a magical meeting). even though her and nano got into a bad start, but somehow someway both of them hugged it out and had been friends since then. nano is the person that influenced shigure with dance, since his bigger brother is a part of a dance crew. at first, shigure only followed what he does for fun but in the end, she's the one who got pulled in deep into the game. she joined YTT (Yesterday Today Tomorrow) Studio and joined 2 classes of ballet for her own and funky hip hop with nano. nano is a natural born dancer whilst shigure struggled to follow him. shigure was about to drop out of dance because she's too tired but then nano challenges her to be more awesome than him. if she does this, then he'll give all of his gundam figurines to her which he cherishes so much. knowning how much nano love his figurines and would go all the way to that extent, she realises that he doesn't want shigure to leave. so she does it for nano instead, with the goal of 'friends forever until the very end' in her mind. what surprises nano is that she took 3rd class for fun and that is contemporary. when the dance exams come, both of them passes and got into the top 10 with shigure ranked number 4 and nano ranked number 3. nano almost cried in both happiness because his best friend is more awesome than him also with despair because he has to give all of his gundam figurines. but to nano's delight, shigure refuses if he promises that they will take their dance game to the next level by joining LIL'RAIDERS. they passed the qualifications with a tremendous difficulty and if they didn't impress the teachers, then they couldn't join

nothing really interesting happened afterwards, it's a normal life for shigure. such as her graduating from LIL'RAIDERS to FRONTRUNNERS that acquires her to quit her soccer club, her first love, her first heartbreak (and nano beating the hell out of that guy for breaking his best friend's heart), first time travelling out of the country, first time to a concert, first time got something from her bone broken, and others. she has a lot of firsts around her elementary-middle. her exciting normal life took a turn when she joined a dance camp in korea just before her high school years. she showcased at the streets with the camps choreography and FRONTRUNNERS piece that she contributes in choreography. that was the time when she got street casted by a person from a company. shigure is confused because the person was speaking in korean and it took the lady a while before she realises that shigure is not from korea. after getting some things sorted out, shigure agrees if nano got to come with her. the company representatives refused because he's not the one being casted and they think he doesn't cut it, which greatly offends shigure because HOW DARE THEY TALK ABOUT HER BEST FRIEND LIKE HE'S A NOBODY. she basically lashes out on them on the spot since she's really pissed off because they don't know his real talent. nano managed to calm her down and said that it's no biggie really, that she should give it a shot without him this time. but shigure refused it, she prefer to stay in japan and dance with him. the representatives reluctantly gives them a solution, if shigure really wants nano to get in then he should audition instead of getting recruited like shigure did. if nano couldn't get in, then they couldn't do anything about it. shigure accompanies him to the audition place and watches him for a far. nano passed the audition smoothly, shigure was not surpirsed by it since he has a lot of passion and talent in his dance. the judges was also surpirsed by this, especially the ones who were there when shigure defends her friend. they didn't expect nano to be THAT good since nano was not the center of the piece.

while training, she doesn't really need that much of practice on dancing except for some polishing here and there. instead, she was put in a special programs such as technique class, choreography & improvisation camp along with her new friend/student soonyoung and nano. she's put into intensive training of vocals and language since she's fairly good at singing but needs a lot of learning in korean. bullying is out of the question, just a few rumours her and there especially about her lashing out on the officals of pledis but nobody has ever attacked her or offend her (except if it's about nano oh then she will definitely be mad). she mostly has a mental breakdown on learning the language because she has a hard time in it but she's really trying her best. she also has her studies to think about and the fact that she's still a part of FRONTRUNNERS. she doesn't want to quit from FRONTRUNNERS, they're her family. it is a fortunate that Pledis and YTT agreed to work together so that the principle dancers and the members of the dance crew could give lessons and workshops for the dance department of Pledis, some of them even worked as Pledis' new choreographer and back-up dancer. but for her, she needs to balance everything for her to not be out of place. so these days she has a mental breakdown and cries in nano's arms thinking about her future. the only thing that could distract her now is to dance and her work. being put in the international and masters training programming makes her being excluded in the current pledis girls and the chances of her debuting is quite slim. so after 4 years of training and waiting, she grew weary and asked for a transfer to a company that could handle her talents also. the company suggests her to move to bighit entertainment, which one of michiru haruka's liked choreographer son seung deuk took place. auditioning and getting in is easy; but what's ahead of her might be the challenge for hee

TRIVIA:

LIKES:
❀ sweaters; i think it's obvious as to why. she practically wants to be wrapped in something warm everyday, even at hot days ('just wear a cropped or a thin sweater')
❀ morning; even though she values sleep too, mornings are always her favourite time of the day. she always said that it's the perfect time for cuddling (watch out shigure's roommate, you'll find her next to you when you wake up) and for a relaxing walk
❀ breakfast; food is love food is life, but breakfast means something important to her. she likes to have the hot of her coffee or the fluffy bite of her pancake
❀ eggs; she loves to add egg to any type of food she's having, she also has a ton of gudetama merchandise, even the sweater!
❀ anything cute; she's OBSESSED with anything that correlates with cute. one time she saw this pink fish, she BEGGED her father to buy it because she thinks it looks like a cute precious pink fluff that's swimming aorund (did i tell you that she's weak towards aegyo?)
❀ children; 'LITTLE TINY CUTIES! EVEN BETTER THAN NORMAL SIZED CUTIES!'
❀ pastel colour; TOTALLY COLLERATES WITH CUTE
❀ her upper body; people tend to praise her upper body which boosts her confidence. what makes her happy is the fact that they're not talking about her ies ouo
❀ laughing; laughing makes her a happy person. she doesn't care if she looks like a yellow seal, she tends to laugh at everything anyway
❀ sailor moon; 'I am sailor moon, champion of justice! on behalf of the moon, i will right wrongs and triumph over evil, and that means you!'

DISLIKES: 
❀ the concept of fan-idol intimate relationship; it doesn't really bug her as much, but according towards her theory, a fan's love towards an idol is a different kind of love. it is not something that is based on a personal and up close experience that shows the true colours of that idol. but i mean, hey if you're lucky and you get to know your idol better then sure. it's just the concept that bugs the hell out of her
❀ drama; drama gives her headache and it makes her tired. why does everyone likes to have conflict when a simple problem could be solved really easily and just apologise?
❀ over the top pride; pride is something that is good to have, but it is not everything. for her, if you need some help then don't be afraid to ask or if you want to apologise first then it's okay, that's admirable. but she doesn't like people who's stuck up because they think that pride is everything for them
❀ migraine; unfortunately for shigure, she always has this kind of migraine when she's stressed. and i'm talking about the migraine that makes you vomit every 10 minutes and light will pierce your eyes. the fact that it happened when she's stressed is not helping her feel any better
❀ making everything personal; you know that kind of person that has some beef with you and then brings it to the job? LIKE dude, just get the job done first then we could solve our conflicts
❀ arrogant people; and she doesn't mean people who are arrogant in a sarcastic, sassy and funny way or in the end it looks kinda cute, no those kind of people makes her laugh. she's talking about the people who wouldn't smile the first time they meet, why? BECAUSE THAT'S NOT POLITE THAT'S WHY. at least give a smile or greet back or something, don't ruin your image at first impression. common sense people sheesh
❀ crying; nope
❀ onion; it's weird for her to have allergics towards onions really
❀ the feeling of drowning/out of breath; she condemns this feeling, and it makes her feel scared. not the kind of out of breath after a tiring excercise or practice but those kind of feeling that the air is up from you or you can't breathe. she hates the deep sea because of the possibility of drowning, it scares her

HABITS: 
❀ she tends to groan when she's tired or annoyed, then says 'oh my Gooooodddd.....'
❀ laughs at everything...yes that is a habit and a signature movement (?)
❀ tends to act more active and hyper to forget about her worries or nervousness
❀ either curses or stay frozen when she's surprised
❀ cuts her hand's nails with small scissors out of old habit

HOBBIES: 
❀ making choreographies; it is an essentials really, she shows her emotions clearly when she dances. although this is not really positive, but when she's sad or upset usually her contemporary dance is filled more with her feelings so it come off really good
❀ improvise (dance wise); #improvuntilyoudrop
❀ writing lyrics; she's still an amateur and still training, but she likes to do it now and then

RELATIONSHIPS: 

  
✩ main dancemate & best friend - kirihaiko nano (19) / trainee at pledis / hyperactive, greaseball, flirty in a friendly way and hyperactive...also hyperactive...also he makes stupid jokes and puns like nano stop
interactions with shigure /// ah...when both of them reunites, it's always starts with shigure yelling out 'NAAANOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~~NYANYO NYANYO NYANYOOOO~~~' and then both of them would run to each other and hug really tightly. these two were childhood friends and was in the same dance crew, not to mention he's the first person to get her to like dance. he's her main dancemate because both of them clicks so well when it comes to dance. when doing choreo improvisations, their movements blends so well with each other and it looks so good, it's always fascinating to see them dance together. oh you won't even imagine how awesome it is when they dance or make a choreography together, the pieces they make is so amazing. when both of them are not dancing with each other, nano is a place where she tells him about everything and a shoulder to cry on. but shigure rarely cries on him because he always makes stupidly funny comments about it like 'nano stop~ i'm trying to be emotional here! /pouts/ you're ruining the mood!'. nano also like to flirt with her in a very friendly way like he's so greasy that it's not even funny. he would just slide towards her then say 'are you the sun? because your smile is blinding me' 'out of all the flowers in the world, you're the most beautiful' 'i get diabetes whenever i hear that sweet sweet laugh of yours' and shigure would just trample to the floor and laugh way too loud whenever he does that. sometimes she throws him punches and kicks, shouting 'SHUT UP!'

  
✩ close friend and classmate - mandou nakama (19) / university student / calculating, manipulative, playful, lazy-, genius
interactions with shigure /// back at the time when shigure is still at middle school, mandou nakama was known as the opposition force of jyousetsu gakuen. nakama's middle name is trouble (sometimes she's called 'mondai nakama') and she's always able to get out of it. she was deemed as the troublemaker and the rebel of the school, always finding ways to cause an uproar and to manipulate people to get her ways out. but out of those exteriors given, she is extremely intelligent. and by intelligent, i mean intelligent that even the word genius is an understatement for her level. she was able to pass her final exams with above the average score even though she was never there for most of the lessons and spends her time sleeping. the teachers and students conspires that she's actually always cheating or that her parents were educating her with a higher level back at home. but nobody really knows the truth except for her being a crazy genius. how she and shigure became friends was not being accountable for, it came out of nowhere. shigure at first had a normal perspective of her but when she was able to answer a university level physics questions after she got woken up was what piqued her interest in nakama. shigure wanted nakama to teach her lessons but nakama refused, saying that she got no interest on mentoring someone. shigure instead, bugged the hell out of her until nakama became mad and unwillingly teaches her. nakama kept a cold and harsh exterior, seeing shigure just laughing it out sometimes annoys nakama. but then she outgrew out of it and found some friendly nature in her towards shigure. nakama founds herself being friends with shigure as time goes by

  
✩ 'students' (lol) and close friends - kwon soonyoung (19) & xu minghao (17) / part of seventeen / outgoing, talkative & fast learner | modest, kind & cutie~
interactions with shigure /// even though soonyoung relatively trained longer than shigure, soonyoung said that she's more of a senior when it comes to dancing. both of them got into a special program for choreographing at first until the agency assigned her to mentor soonyoung when they saw how much progress she's making. she's a bit 'eehh...' at first but then she felt comfortable with him as quickly as a lightning. soonyoung is a friendly and funny person, combining shigure's habit to laugh at anything is not helping at all. not to mention they're the same liners so for them to bond quickly is not a matter anymore. soonyoung and shigure helps out together in each languages, he helps her with her korean and she helps him with his japanese. soonyoung also teaches her funny dances and shigure is like 'soonyoung~ be serious!' but then she ends up laughing (one funny thing; when he's about to debut, he changed his hair to blonde. and when she sees him, she squealed and hugged him 'you became more like me~' she said as she touched his hair)
for the case of minghao, he came a little late than soonyoung. but shigure accepts him with an open arms, she couldn't say no to those cute innocent smile and his button nose. she openly admits that she's his japanese mother and she will go great lengths to protect him (she said that while pointing a bamboo stick to everyone [nobody knows where she got that, don't even question it]). shigure babies her 24/7 most of the time of their practice time, and minghao doesn't seem to mind the treatment from her. he smiles brightly when he sees her and accepts all of her hugs and light cheek pinching. when it comes to mentoring him, even though both of them has different styles but shigure could easily goes to his level of dance. she also teaches him a much more slower dance that depends more on the feeling. both of them helps each other with their korean and occasionally minghao teaches her how to do b-boy (one funny fact; shigure doesn't like him calling her noona because it makes her swoon and weak on the legs but sometimes minghao does that to tease. in which she reacts with a gasp and look pained 'i did not raise you like that!')
 

who I'll be

  

STAGE NAME: himawari
POSITION: main dancer, sub rapper, sub vocalist
BACKUP POSITION: visual, lead dancer, lead vocalist
STAGE PERSONA: being in a dance crew and had tried various of styles, her adapting abilities towards concepts is easier for her. since contemporary is her main genre, she's able to adapt to a more fluid and smooth movement and does excellent job in going into her character. cute concept is probably one of her favourites and her smile had been a strong suit for her. everybody loves the cute himawari, the all sunshine and bright smile is what made them like her. more hip hop and strong concepts brings out her polished works from her dance crew and all of those hard work being put. her front is her facial expression, which is EN POINTE, her inner polyswagg awakens whenever she's met with hip hop concept. her hip hop fronte sometimes described by the fans as 'alter-ego himawari' or 'dark himawari' since she became very fierce and sometimes comes off as intimidating. y...well let's not say a thing about that. i mean the only thing that's y is her body but she's still trying to learn about the whole thing of being 'y' so yeah...don't ask about it
VARIETY PERSONA: she is the type of person who laughs at literally everything. she founds everything so fascinating and laughable. like when she first meets the mc of a show, she'll laugh because it will feel so surreal meeting them in real life. she's the weird kid of the group, like legit she's willing to do the outrageous and bizarre things and she won't feel embarrassed about it. her reaction and expression is just gold because she loves loves LOVES to exaggerate stuffs (although to be honest, that's her natural reaction). she just want to have fun and have a good time with everyone. if someone criticise her about that then she'll just do it even more or occasionally say 'take a joke man!'. her favourite thing is when she tells a really cheesy and dry joke, when people doesn't laugh is her favourite because the fact that it's not funny makes her laugh. she knows it annoys the heck out of people so she just starts doing the running man challenge walk backwards while singing 'don't kill me please~'. there is no such thing as charismatic himawari...there's only weird himawari. and everyone rejoice in the existence of weird himawari

PRODUCTION TALENT: choreographing is her front and what she does best so why not help the production team with it? sometimes she asks if some of FRONTRUNNER choreographers are allowed to choreograph for them so that ARORA can have a variety of styles to explore with. she's still learning how to write lyrics and all of that stuffs but she's a bit hopeless in it. but hey collabs are allowed or a simple mixtape

TALENT TWINS: 

✩ SINGING TWIN - reol (drop pop candy & +♂) shigure has what you call the ultimate shota voice; a combination of a cute yet strong voice resulting in her voice to be like of a young boy, which is super weird when said but is actually true. she has her own charm in her voice and is a much more skilled vocalist than a rapper. although mostly singing in a higher tone, she is able to sing in a low voice and has a nasal quality to them, bringing a more rock value towards it. fans says that when singing, she has two sides of it; himawari that uses a more pop-electric side while shigure is leaning towards the rock-heavy side. 
✩ RAPPING TWIN - t-ara eunjung - she's of an mediocre level and is able to do a slow to fast rapping when it comes to beat. but she has a bit of difficulty when it comes to flow and projecting the 'feelings' towards the rap. she still needs to improve more in rapping
✩ DANCING TWIN -  sugawara koharu for hip hop/general & zoya (red jacket) saganenko for contemporary - as a contemporary dancer from the start, she has crazy energy and tolerance towards dancing. she has strong technique and flow towards it, and not to mention how she is light in her feet and her rubber like body. potrayal of emotion is not a question anymore; rather than showing it towards singing, she shows it in dancing. she's really good in improvisation and unpredictable change in rhythm and speed, making her an advanced intermediate dancer. when it comes to hip hop, the energy that came towards contemporary makes her has an endless stamina. she hits hard when dancing but also has a great control in her movements. she likes to do really fast movements that makes a transitions into a core-based movement in a split second. she also like to do old school basic hip hop movements when freestyling since it is the foundation of hip hop. being an all style dancer, she was trained to be able to adapt to different genres. as stated above, the genres that she does and/or in the process of training are; l.a style, funky hip hop, urban, poppin', locking, dancehall, waacking and ladies' style. she's sorta weird when it comes to y Y and not y fierce, because she could totally whip her hair and make fierce faces but not ily going down and roll your hip in a very 'woohoo' manner

TRAINING PERIOD: 4 years at Pledis + 1 year at BigHit

TRAINEE LIFE: 

shigure started training at early 2011 in pledis in which she also attented a special international school that's recommended by the company. shigure is normally a bright and kind hearted child, so bullying was out of the question because...come on, not everyone in this world are mean and who in the world would dare to bad mouth about someone who is nice from the heart? she picked up with the lessons really well; especially dance and vocals. since she's more interested in comtemporary, the company puts her in a special program which makes her learn more about contemporary, jazz and basic ballet whilst also staying in the normal program that includes more towards hip hop and vocals. another one of her main programs is to teach her more about making choreographies, technique class and improvisations camp which also applied to seventeen's soonyoung. the only thing that she's struggling is her language. she never learned korean before and it took her nearly half of the year she spend training to really be normally fluent in the language (a little bit higher than minghao's). after her transfer to bighit entertainment, the company makes her focus more on channeling her hip hop on her dance and making more choreographies but still having a contemporary element. they also help her to improve her vocals and rap in all those one year but they realised that pledis' program had really heated up the girl's skill and that's when they thought, this particular yellow kid, is ready for the next level
