PERSONALITY :　
the good leader isn't the loud ones, but those who knows the members : siwoo's always seen as one of the more 'cool' contestants of 'do or die', being quiet, almost always adapt and relaxed. but truthfully, he's just in-tune with his own nature; the little details, the small gestures, the interactions; none of them were lost in his eyes. and when faced with other contestants (especially in groups), he's the one to ensure that everything about their concerns and needs are listened, prioritized, and understood. and he always tries to motivate them as much as he could. his attentiveness comes with him being organized; settling priorities, utilizing people (again, especially when in group challenges) to their full potential, and with that, he has to bear through everything. he's calm and collected, being able to strike through bad rumors and had people talking behind his backs; and he's much more determined to prove people wrong about it. and he never takes failure as a slumping card; everything is delivered in high-quality regardless of his mood, and while he doesn't like all the challenges the judges gave to him, he knows it will be his stepping stone to reach better things. every criticism gets him to up himself better than before; and he's going to reach it, no matter what. part of his personality gains tract with others, good or bad.
difference with the others is everything but being different itself : siwoo's big goal was a debut. that's it. his passion in music is thoroughly notable and his desire to make his own thing is always there since he penned some of his own solos before entering 'do or die'. his talent is known and while he may not even make it, he wants to provide the best chances of being known. he's prepared, yet at times, his ambition tends to drive people away (or worse, turns it into somewhat a competition with particularly plucky contestants). his independence means he needs no heed to others and can perfectly take care of himself in relative seclusion; he doesn't come off as very attention-seeking, but those who are used with softer sunshines are more off-put with his personality.
sometimes, it's hard to get rid of bad habits : a past upbringing of harsh failures and rejections never sits well; he doesn't reinforce the stereotype. always crushing the prejudice, he was highly sought (if not respected due to his young age). but being barely 23 while being forced to suddenly mature, he's still younger than he looks and acts. in attempts to do so at the time he's not going to be taken seriously, harsh, straight-up crushing rejections and pain has left him in a sour view of the world. and when he's not careful with being untalkative, slipping up would cause disasters with the k-netz. and while he always attempts to do take care of people he's supposed to, most of the time, if he doesn't held them favorably (or had done something effectively making them worth it), he doesn't hesitate to cut them off when they had went straight too far. the indifference had people calling him 'heartless', but he could only do so much before the most logical thing to do had to be done (aka elimination). and sometimes, being too private gave out the false assumptions that he meant evil and manipulation and harm—he doesn't. he tends to keep himself guarded when coming with the tricky idol industry; when he doesn't become careful enough, what past he desires to keep personal and close to his heart would be blown out of the water, potentially destroying his family, friend, and he himself.

BACKGROUND :　
1995 : siwoo was born, first out of three. father is a businessman while mother is a doctor.
1995-2012 : siwoo grew up loving music. he also joins a school band around this time, where he was getting pressured to finish school and be a doctor or do business like his parents. siwoo had to secretly audition with DHE. He was accepted, and trained as a vocalist.
2014 : siwoo's parents found out that he had been training (and getting the money from busking gigs and working at a restaurant as a cook) and siwoo had to persuade them that what he did would be worth it. they paid, but he hadn't been on good terms since then.
2014-2017 : He trained since 2012 and became one of the older trainees who was very busy (due to lots of things), and he hasn't contacted his parents for three years, but he was one of the best vocal trainees and the company considered to either debut him solo or join the competition. either way, the votes are drawn out and he competed in bvg.

▸ best friend — kang jiyoung (24) / musician / tough, snarky, ambitious/ 9
probably the only time jiyoung or siwoo weren't cold were with each other. both seemed comfortable compared to when they were kicked out of their houses. also, jiyoung provided place for siwoo to live when he was in seoul.

TRAINEE YEARS :　five years

Trainee Life : 

▸ Training has been so far a constant game of competing and improving; a headstart from being a singer in a band and long training period is advantageous, but he knew too well if he kept up a bad attitude and doesn't learn, he's not going to debut. He excelled as a singer, but when it comes to dancing, he had troubles in the first place, but has been showing speedy improvement as he takes in advices and criticisms like a champ and decides to improve by getting constant feedbacks from coaches. Although siwoo couldn't really make his solo, he knows that for a competitorl, he's faring decently and better. When it comes to personality, however, some people could be and are surprised when he can appear very off-handed and uncaring (a case of constant exhaustion can speed up this factor) at first, but siwoo will be friendly enough to all trainees while keeping a personal eye on how all of them looked up at him. Most trainee had a more friendly impression when they got to know him, but many also avoided working with him. He may be listening to what the trainees can do, but when he demands high quality, he can also be slightly pushy around people and this can throw them off. He meant well, but many times it does causes misunderstandings and some trainees would end up hating him.
