Are you sure you're Minseok's child?
When it comes to Mijin she is a very openminded kind of girl and is always willing to try something new once in a while. She is also open to any new ideas or if it comes to the group concept then she's ready to try it out whether it be if it's a y concept to a funky concept to a cute concept. She also has a wide variety of things that she likes and doesn't really see any problems if she lost a argument. She's just really open and her mind is open to retain any new information. Another thing that comes with being openminded is that she's amiable, meaning that she doesn't care about your gender, age, race or whatever you are Mijin is willing to be your friend.

Although this comes from being openminded as well, Mijin is very adventurous and likes to try new challenges or try out something that someone has never done before. If it comes to eating a weird concoction or if it means climbing Mount Everest, she'd be glad to give it a go. At times her being adventurous can get the whole group in "trouble" at times. Such as if they had to suggest a vacation, they'd never want to go with what Mijin says because what she says is outrageous. Who would camp out in a desert and say it's because we need to notch up our survival skills, well that's exactly what Mijin would say. 

Okay, Mijin isn't all that bad though, seriously. When it comes to her members she is always showing concern over them and watches over them silently. Mijin truly cares about her members, every single one of them and wouldn't want even a paper cut on their body. No she's not motherly, it's just an instinct she has when it comes to her close friends. She is very compassionate when it comes to people she knows. Other than that, Mijin is a very upbeat girl who's words are always on the "upper" side of things. Being optimistic means to be looking at the good of everything and that's what Mijin does. This might be why she is so extreme with her adventures because she always sees the good in them and never the bad.

My father, Minseok, always told me to be different.
Mijin's lack of sense might come from her being openminded and optimistic which is why she appears foolish in front of others. She often makes awful decisions, such as spending 5 dollars on gum but her motto is "you only have one life, so live it like how you want too." Yeah, a bit weird of a motto but whatever. Mijin is also known for not knowing how to pick out her friends. Because she is so openminded she lacks a good sense of judgement so it would be obvious that she sees everyone as a good person even though they are not.
 
Because Mijin is open to anything new, she has slightly become eccentric and so she can come off as a weirdo or a creep. Not full out "I'm-your-best-best-friend-and-I-watch-you" kind of weird but more off of a subtle weird. She loves to talk about how cool it would be to have superpowers and always thought it'd be cool to be in an anime. Also she likes to go off in her own world at times, her world is often filled with anime characters and Marvel characters. Coming with this, Mijin is known to be an escapist. She often doesn't really like how the real world turned out to be. So she'll be thinking about a fantasy world to escape reality. Or she would immerse herself in an anime marathon to get rid of any surroundings that deal with reality.

Now, it's not good to always believe that people's children will come out to be an exact copy of their parents. Mijin is almost the opposite of her father, but Minseok still loves her like his own. The girl is the epitome of the word childish, yeah she's immature but she can be mature in serious situations or events. In other times, she'll laugh at anything and loves to bother the members whenever she can. Mijin also likes to laugh at funny words that sound like words that are inappropriate. Another thing is that Mijin can be a bit boisterous as well. She is a very cheerful and energetic girl at heart, but the girl can get out of hand at times. Sometimes the girl can get real rowdy and she is a girl who loves to party. So if you leave this girl by herself at the dorm then don't expect it to be clean. This can often get the girl in trouble, but hey you only have one life, so live it like how you want too.

⟪ BACKGROUND ⟫

  

On the oh-so-beautiful day of July 19, 2022, Minseok and Soonkyu had a baby and called her Mijin. A wonderful name- who am I kidding? The name sounds like Michin and people always get her name wrong saying that she's Michin. Oh well moving on, Mijin's parents were still fairly popular so at her birth many people congratulated her parents for their baby. Since Minseok didn't really want her baby to be in the entertainment, he had tried to keep her away from SM and kept her hidden from the public eye while she grew up. When the birth of his baby happened, he resigned from SM Entertainment and opened his own cafe. Going onto the age of 6, Mijin practically wailed and begged her father to let her see his cafe. Reluctant at first, Minseok tried to convince her otherwise, but finally giving into the cries he brought her to his cafe. His cafe is named MinKyu's Coffee cafe and is famous for it's lattes also because of Minseok. When she first went to the cafe, she saw her father doing latte art and was very fascinated of to how the white cream didn't blend with the brown coffee, rather it stayed afloat and had a spiderweb pattern. Wanting to be like her father, she had asked Minseok if she could do that too. Happy over the fact that she wanted to do latte art, he had taught her the basics and enjoyed her designs that looked like a splatter of dots.

Growing up into a 11 year old, Mijin had started her interest in old kpop groups because she looked through some of her father's old stuff. Seeing the name EXO, she became curious onto who or what EXO was so she searched it up on the internet and was shocked to see that her father was in a very popular group. Wanting to ask her father about it, she did ask instead of bottling it up inside of her. Minseok had wanted to keep his idol life a secret from Mijin but now that she figured it out, he thought it was about time to tell her about his past. After that talk Mijin started to search up more kpop groups and listened to their music, which sounded ancient at first but it grew on her. She never really took an interest in her current k-pop, but hearing old k-pop really made her want to be an idol. So when she saw what was called a "dance practice" video, she became interested in dancing. So that's when she started to try dancing to old kpop songs and well let's just say we're glad she didn't break all her bones. When Minseok found about her trying to dance to kpop songs and her wanting to be an idol, it made Minseok want to try changing Mijin's dream but Mijin practically had the dream set in stone.

At the blooming age of 14, Minseok had finally made his decision and told Soonkyu about it as well. They both agreed and they let Mijin go into SM Entertainment. When Mijin first joined SM Entertainment, honestly she expected to be met with glamour and glam in an instant. But that's obviously not how SM Entertainment works, rather Mijin was met with sweat, tears and blood. The company practically drained Mijin until she couldn't walk anymore, they were probably pressuring her alot because her father was in one of their best groups. Mijin kept going though, she didn't want to stop and wanted to debut as an idol. So when the news about her joining a group with the other children of EXO, she didn't really know what to think. The only person she "knew" was Luhan's boy and she only saw him on rare occasions. So meeting new people all of a sudden made her nervous, what frightened her more was that her dad is friends with all of their dads. But deciding against the idea of being a shy, lonely girl she went against that idea and opened herself up and had her time with each of the group members. Throughout that time, Mijin had felt close to Miya and D.O's boy and felt glad that she had great leaders, Lay's girl and Kris's boy.

Over time, Mijin had grown up most of her teenage life with these people and grew closer with them. She had started to like each and every one of them, although some may have been late in joining the group. She's just hoping that the other members also feel the same way as her, but if they don't then oh well. Other than that, Mijin was very impressed at how everyone else was talented and Mijin was subpar with the people who had the exceptional vocals, impressive dancing skills and smooth rapping skills.

⟪ FAMILY ⟫

  
→ Father, Kim Minseok ⋮ 54 ⋮ Barista/Owner of his own cafe ⋮ Minseok had always been a good father and is a understanding man who is always there to support his daughter and wife. Although sometimes Mijin experiences second hand embarrassment because of him. At times the idol side of him comes out and he tries to cute to customers. Hear that, the sound of a facepalm- ⋮ Being the father of a troublesome girl, Minseok is actually a very patient father and is always willing to hear Mijin out. He had always been there for the girl and was reluctant to let her go to SM but seeing that his daughter adored idols and wanted to become one herself, he let her go. He was the one that was always there for Mijin because her mother was always busy working as a treasurer for SM Entertainment. Another thing that Minseok does for Mijin is show her how to do latte art because Mijin did say that if she didn't make it into the entertainment world then she would like to be like her father and continue running his cafe.

  
→ Mother, Kim Soonkyu ⋮ 55 ⋮ Treasurer of SM Entertainment ⋮ Mijin's mother Soonkyu is a very diligent woman who loves to see her family happy. She is always willing to accept anything that Mijin does and supports her as much as Minseok does. ⋮ Soonkyu had always been out and in the Kim household because she had a huge job of making sure that SM's money was in safe hands. Now Mijin didn't hate her mother, she still loves her as a mother and appreciates the fact that her mother works so hard to earn money for the family. Whenever Soonkyu came home late, Mijin would stay up late and make her mom a latte with her own special latte art. They had special moments together and Soonkyu told Mijin many things when it comes to being a girl and becoming a woman. Her mother had given her a necklace that has 3 rings on it that represent the Kim family as a whole.

⟪ FRIENDS ⟫

  
→ Skinship buddy, Park Miya ⋮ 17 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ When the two of them are together, Mijin is normally clinged onto Miya like a koala because their heights are almost similar. People say that they are polar opposites, because whenever Miya is seen lazying around, Mijin would always try to get her up and moving. Or at times whenever Miya is being stubborn Mijin tries to change the girl's opinion and gives her the ups of the option. But in other ways, they click at times and that's why they're very close with each other.

  
→ Target #1, D.O's boy ⋮ 19 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ The two of them met because they mainly shared similar interests in rapping and are pretty much on the same level on rapping as well. And because of that Mijin became very close with D.O's boy which led to her seeing the boy as a target of poking, pranks or waking him up with cold water. Although she is a bit cruel with the boy, he's the only boy that is really close with Mijin so the girl treats him like how she thinks she should.

⟪ GROUPMATES ⟫

  
→ "Kinda close kinda not" friend, Luhan's boy ⋮ 21 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Being that Minseok and Luhan were fairly close with each other, there were times where Luhan visited Minseok's cafe and of course he brought his son along as well. This caused Mijin to talk with the boy and well as a child Mijin wasn't all that knowing, so she would always tell the boy that he was handsome and wanted to marry him. Now grown up, Mijin tries to avoid him when it's comes to her and him because she honestly feels embarrassed over her stupidness as a child.

  
→ "I know your father" friend, Kris's boy ⋮ 22 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ How Mijin sees Kris's boy is a tad bit similar to Luhan's boy but she never met Kris's boy before. Whenever Kris visited the cafe he always said he had a son but the son never wanted to join him in coming to the cafe. Moving on from the past, Mijin sees Kris's boy as a great leader and looks up to him and his leadership skills. Another thing that Mijin likes about Kris's boy is that he's good at everything- singing, dancing, rapping and just about anything.

  
→ "You're rich, give me money" friend, Suho's girl ⋮ 19 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Mijin did hear about Suho's family background and also how he was a bit more advantaged with money than his other members. When Mijin first saw Suho's girl, she expected the girl to be decked out with Gucci, gold and sparkles. Well, she wasn't exactly right but Suho's girl did have the money that runs in Suho's family. Slowly over time when Mijin started to become more friendly with the girl she would always joke around and tell Suho's girl to buy her something.

  
→ "The 2nd mother" friend, Lay's girl ⋮ 20 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Lay's girl is one of the reasons of to why Mijin started to become really comfortable with the rest of the group. Mijin had always looked at Lay's girl as a second mother even though Lay's girl is one year older. Mijin had always went to Lay's girl to get comfort or to have a one on one girl talk. Mijin feels very comfortable around this girl and is always happy to see the girl.

  
→ "I admire your dancing skills" friend, Baekhyun's boy ⋮ 18 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ When Mijin first saw Baekhyun's boy it was in the dance studio, the boy had such amazing dancing skills that it made Mijin's jaw drop. After that, whenever the boy started to dance Mijin's eyes would always land on him and let's just say Baekhyun's boy has a secret admirer. Mijin doesn't see the boy in any other way, she only admires the boy's skills and compliments him everytime he's done dancing.

  
→ Target #2, Chen's boy ⋮ 18 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Chen's boy is the second person that is the target of Mijin's little pranks or whatever she does. The boy is actually pretty fun to hang out with and so whenever D.O's boy doesn't want to hang out with Mijin then she goes to her 2nd option, Chen's boy. Sometimes she likes to cover the boy in a heavy blanket when it's summer and take his blanket when it's winter. It's fun to see the boy kick the heavy blanket off or seeing him cuddle up into a fetus position, but later on Mijin covers him in a blanket.

  
→ "We should be best friends" friend, Zitao's girl ⋮ 19 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Zitao's girl is the same age as Mijin so it was pretty easy to get along with the other girl. It made Mijin become very comfortable around the girl so she would sometimes spark a conversation with the girl. At times the both of them go out to go do something when it's almost midnight and just do whatever they want. Their interactions are pretty rare but Mijin wants to become closer with the girl.

  
→ Spoiled prince, Kai's boy ⋮ 17 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ This boy is literally spoiled by all of the older members and sometimes it can make Mijin jealous but she does the same thing of spoiling him. She sees him as a little brother and finds it fun that she can order him around as well. But there are times where the boy's charms are a bit too much for Mijin so she just has to spoil him.

  
→ Spoiled princess, Sehun's girl ⋮ 16 ⋮ Astral Member ⋮ Pretty much the same thing for Kai's boy, this girl is spoiled probably even more spoiled than Kai's boy. The girl can pretty much just ask for something and she'll get it right on the spot because of the older members. But Mijin can't really say anything because she spoils Sehun's girl as well.
 

⟪ DO YOU WANT TO BE IN ASTRAL? ⟫

Actually yes- despite the fact that it goes against what my father wanted. /laughs lighty and whispers the last part/ I wanted to be in Astral because truth be told, my father and mother inspired me to be an idol because they were idols before. So me being me, I decided to join Astral as a member even though I'm not exceptionally talented. /shrugs my shoulders while mocking a smug face/

⟪ DO YOU GET ALONG WITH THE OTHER MEMBERS? ⟫

Well I would say I do get along with the other members, but I have a feeling that some of them think other wise. /chuckles sheepishly while looking at the ground/ But it's okay, maybe when Astral starts to develop as a family instead of a group then they'll start to get along with everyone. In the mean time I will just say that I get along with everybody fairly well. /nods after my statement along with a bright wide smile/

⟪ DO YOU BELIEVE ASTRAL WILL BE POPULAR? ⟫

That depends really. If we, Astral, show the people promising results then yes I believe Astral will be popular but if not then I think- well yeah /smiles slighty while my eyes glint with a hint of sadness at the thought/ In all honesty, I believe we will be popular because I'm pretty sure EXO-Ls, is that what they're called?, want to see how their "oppa's" child grew up and all that stuff. That would mean we will be popular within the middle age people but hey that's fine because that just means we have a unique fandom. /snickers a little/
