PERSONALITY: 
ALL ABOUT KIM JANGMI!
INFJ • PRIESTESS • CANCER • NEUTRAL GOOD
looks like a cinnamon roll, is a cinnamon roll. very handy when it comes to grooming, like anything you need she can do. allows herself to be vulnerable because she knows its an intrinsic part of life. never feels the need to compete with other girls because all girls are great and jangmi loves all girls anyway. honestly jangmi's a dummy but like she makes up for it in spiritual, emotional, and karmic maturity. all about good vibes and energy!! needs to feel everything fully, and truly wants to make super strong emotional bonds with people. wears her heart on her sleeve at all times literally 24/7 only with crying and how much she loves everyone though. feels things so strongly that it's dizzying and she think she'd be better off not feeling anything. such a sensualist its unbelivable. sees the beauty and art in literally eVERYTHINg. in tastes, sounds, smells, touches like she can see colors in the wind and all that artistic stuff. super artsy-fartsy and loves painting and other arts and crafts. normally calm but when she gets worked up or has coffee, she goes absolutly wILD and is convinced she can do everything and anything. loves everything and everyone so so so much like, the amount of love she has is smothering. super sentimental and cheesy like its kinda embarrassing. remembers all anniversaries and birthdays and important life events. keeps a bunch of scrabooks and memory boxes. loves making things for people. really knows how to appreciate the small things in life. super duper affectionate like if you're within five feet of kim jangmi, you're getting hugged or smooched, especially if you're a girl. actually very moody and easily upset but usually smiles to hide it? if she's quiet for no reason, it's because she's thinking!!! it isn't bad at all okay sometimes jangmi just likes to think about things by herself. actually if she gets quiet for no reason she's usually thinking about her feelings in context to the situation at hand.  is very emotionally in tune and is always like "okay how does this feel?". cries over literally everything for no reason and every reason at the same gotdamn time. is actually a literally baby that just disguised herself as a high school grad. its cute when she's wearing feetie pajamas and cuddling with 75 plushies but not so cute when she's putting her fingers in her ears and shouting "LALALA" because she thinks you're being mean. somehow manages to break everything. is super clingy and like texts the squad all the time. needs constant reassurance that she's liked, like if even a day goes by without someone saying something to her, she'll start crying because she's been abandoned. she has some pretty skewed and unrealistic ideas about the world because of her priviledged background and is almost unbearably naive and starry-eyed. also has a pretty big sense of entitlement. she's a good girl who doesn't do anything wrong, so why shouldn't she get everything she wants without having to put in effort towards it? jangmi has been spoiled and pampered all her life, and as a result she doesn't really know how to do adult things by herself and she doesn't really know how to make a real effort towards something.


                                     A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME.
   


BACKGROUND: from the day she was born, kim jangmi was brought up to be the perfect little girl. as an only child and a girl in a rather traditional-minded family, jangmi is very very loved and very very cossetted. all she had to do is ask, and she would have it within the day. pretty dolls, prettier dresses, even prettier affection from her parents, kim jangmi had it all and developed a bit of a princess complex. she was always a huge crybaby, especially as a kid, and she'd always get made fun of for it. no one really liked her that much because she'd always cry to get her way. she never had any real friends growing up, kids would only hang out with her because she had a lot of toys or because their parents told them to be nice to her so they could rub elbows with people who had a decent amount of money. they'd totally ditch jangmi when they found someone cooler, or someone they actually liked.

to fill up her loneliness, jangmi would often play in her mom's closet, throwing together outfits ( which her mom loved ) and then one day her dad came home with a sewing machine when she was like 10 and jangmi's been in love with making clothes ever since.

jangmi gained her first friend in middle school, a tiny, angry egg by the name of kwon hayoon. it was the day of the school's trip during a scavenger's hunt. jangmi was crying because she couldn't find anything on the list no matter how hard she looked and her hair was messed up and her clothes were dirty and this was not an activity for girls and to top it all off, some of her peers were laughing at her for crying. and then angry mom hayoon swoops in to tell them not to laugh at her and then comfort jangmi. hayoon even helped her with the scavenger hunt! and since that day jangmi's just been super heart eyes for hayoon in a totally platonic way.


LIFESTYLE:  during the summer, jangmi plans on attending a bunch of fashion, makeup, and design workshops. she's also gonna watch dramas and read terribly cheesy romance manhwa and maybe marathon sailor moon again. but other than that she's gonna hang out with her friends like as much as humanly possible because she's gonna miss them so. much. the more responsible squad friends are like gonna teach jangmi how to do as many adult things as possible so she doesn't accidentally kill herself come fall.
 
TRIVIA: 
likes roses and rose products, pink, poetry and art, light scents, girls, fabrics, pastries, shimmer eye shadow, intimacy, dad jokes, beauty, stationery, her sewing machine named 'rosie'.

dislikes people who shame her for crying all the time, people undermining her because of her femininity, spicy foods, pungent scents, dentists.

habits are buying everything that's pink or rose-related, spraying rosewater all over her face at random times, clinging to girls, clapping like a seal while she laughs, kissing rosie goodnight before bed.

hobbies are doing makeup and nails and hair and outfit coordination, watching makeup tutorials, reading fashion magazines, gardening, pinterest arts and crafts, eating sweets, sewing, knitting, scrabooking, taking pics of her friends.

fears everyone secretly hating her, people not wanting her around, being unloved and a failure, not succeeding, doing something she'll regret for the rest of her life.

has a little "garden" in her room ( really it's just a corner of her room where she has a bunch of potted plants, fake and real ). she grows a lot of mini-roses but also grows other small flowers too!

always has glitter on her, somewhere.

dumb things she's done include : accidentally setting her hair on fire while baking a cake ( don't ask ), tried to leap over a chair and then tripped and slammed her nose against a desk and had to go to the hospital, still needs to count on her fingers, said a circle had eight sides, got ran over by a tricycle, got tangled up in the pencil puches made entirely of zippers, whipped so hard she hit her head on a table and got a concussion.

jangmi is so helpless like,,,, someone save her. girl can't even make a bowl of oatmeal without it catching on fire. she doesn't know the right way to wash clothes, and the first time she did it on her own she nearly flooded her house. she just has 0 clue how to be an adult. her mom just tells her to marry rich enough to hire people to cook and clean.

the one thing she does know how to do is sew. jangmi makes pretty much all of her own clothes and finds doing so to be very soothing and calming.

is really bad at jokes! like her sense of humor is like almost non-existant not in the sense that she doesn't have one, but in the sense that her jokes are literally "why couldn't the man find his map?" why? "because the man lost his map." and she laughs so. hard. at these not-jokes.

jangmi has a really good eye for aesthetics and matching color and composition and stuff like that. she's always snapping polaroids of the squad and she puts her polaroids up on her bedroom wall.

hates school and was not the greatest student. she tried really hard to study and do well but she just couldn't,,,,

has never really made any big or serious choices in her life before, and just did whatever her parents told her to do. they want jangmi to go to a ewha womans university, but jangmi just wants to have her own fashion and makeup line ( kinda like pony only with clothes included ). she could technically do that at ehwa but the thought of formally learning something she loves scares her because what if school runs her dreams and then she's stuck with a fashion design degree but she hates fashion??

cried because she found out swans could be gay. cried because she saw a picture of a teacup pig. cried because yoon sanha someone thought it would be funny to hide in her closet dressed as the babadook. cried when a boy asked her out because she didn't know what to do. cried the first time hayoon called jangmi her friend for the first time. cried when bin grabbed held her hand because it caught her off guard. cried when her dad ate her leftovers that she hadn't gotten around to eating.

surpisingly doesn't smell like roses ( she cried when bin told her ), smells more like cake.
FUTURE FORWARD: 
honestly, jangmi is probably gonna go through with her parents wishes and go to ewha, majoring in fashion design. the only thing she's worried about is if she's gonna live in the dorms or not because commuting to campus every day could be a hassle but also she's scared of living on her own!

ALL ABOUT LEE DONGMIN!
ISFP • LOVERS • ARIES • MAKES JANGMI CRY BY BEING TOO BEAUTIFUL.
Responsible™ / extremely embarrassed / mom pt 2. he's very modest and quiet, and he's so beautiful that jangmi doesn't even see his gender and sort of classifies him as an ethereal non-earth creature. the two of them talk about journals and notebooks and other weird niche stationery stuff and she's always picking up little stationery things for him to use. dongmin helped her study a lot back in high school and honestly if it wasn't for him, she would've failed more classes than she did.

ALL ABOUT YOON SANHA!
ESFP • FOOL • ARIES • MAKES JANGMI CRY BY TEASING HER.
talks and gets hit / always ready to fight. the actual, real-life bane of kim jangmi's existence. sanha's playful and inherently boyish nature is a sharp contrast to jangmi's. they're basically two elementary schoolers  who play together at recess but don't really mesh well because she's too sensitive and he's too rowdy so he always ends up making her cry. but still, they're somehow friends. it's actually a bit funny to watch the two of them argue like children over the tiniest things. sanha always apologizes to jangmi first when they argue, especially if she starts crying. for as dysfunctional as their friendship is, they still greatly appreicate each other, even if they're not that close.

introducing moon bin!
PERTINENT INFORMATION
meet the actual puppycat who only has two moods : sleep and dance. he looks towards the upcoming fall with both excitement and trepidation. excitement because he gets to learn what he loves, and trepidation because he's worried his girlfriend won't be able to handle how much less frequently they'll be able to hang out together. he plans on attending seoularts and major in dance.
 
 
BACK-UP: uH,,,, jinwoo
 
BIRTH NAME: moon bin.
NICKAME(S):
PUPPYCAT he's a puppy but also a cat, understand?
BINNIE just a cute nickname for him. he and jangmi often call themselves the "mimi and binnie" pair.

PERSONALITY: bin is very, very thoughtful and invests a lot of time and energy into his relationships so people know exactly how much he cares about them. he's really affectionate too. but he's also very introverted and independent so he also likes to do his own thing so sometimes he's a bit detached! even though he's playful and energetic, he's also very deep and tends to think about things rationally rather than emotionally.
 
TRIVIA: 
she likes backhugging him ( because his back is literally a da vinci carved statue ) but she gets embarrassed when he reacts by like patting her head so bin literally just has to stand there while she holds him.

bin is awful at tying up / braiding jangmi's hair ( even though he says he's good at it ) but he likes doing it anyway, and she loves it even though it turns at bad because it was done by her bin.

whenever jangmi's lost in thought, bin lightly chops her on the head and she immediately cheers up.

no matter how ridiculous of a request jangmi makes, he'll almost always say 'okay'.

his mom sent in a concern on 'hello counselor' because he sleeps too much.

at this point literally 50% of his wardrobe is stuff that jangmi made.
LOVE STORY: 
they met the first year of high school during a remedial lesson for a test that jangmi failed and bin fell asleep during. it was her mom's birthday and jangmi really didn't wanna miss it so she tried to charm the teacher into letting her skip the lesson, to no avail. deciding to be nice, bin distracted the teacher by asking for help with problems he didn't understand, allowing jangmi to slip out of the lesson. the next day, jangmi gathered all her courage and found him and shouted a 'THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME' while handing him a pretty little hand made card of gratitude. she literally sprinted away from him as soon as he grabbed the card and then she tripped down some stairs. bin was suprised, both at the gesture ( because normally people wouldn't thank someone for something so small ) and also because just fell headfirst down some stairs. after that, he would say hi to her in the hall and sometimes they would talk.

they became friends first and started hanging out with the squad and they'd go on cute little "friend dates" where they'd hang out at cafes or go shopping for fabric together. and then one thing led to another and then bin asked her out at like the end of their second year and she started crying and bin was confused and worried. she said yes once she stopped crying and honestly everyone was kinda shook.

but the binmi ship was sailing fast okay they're just literally so cute together that it gives people cavities. like they both hold so much love in their hearts and they're both super duper affectionate so you can imagine them when squad's hanging out like they're giggling and she's feeding him and he's wiping food off her face and everyone is cringing and sanha is screaming. they're like pretty much together all the time, either going on ridiculousy cute dates with even more ridiculously enviable couple pics or they're cuddling in a pillow fort they made together. they do a bunch of diy projects together because bin is surprisingly really good at diy, and she uses him as a male model when she wants to make masculine clothes. they're always trying out weird facemasks together and buying cheesy couple items.

early in their relationship they were especially cheesy because of how often they would tell each other they liked each other, jangmi because she needs and gives constant reassurance, and bin because why not say it back? but then bin feels like he's said it enough for her to have a lasting imprint on her mind but jangmi needsconstant. reassurance. but bin doesn't understand why he has to keep saying it because he's spent all this time telling her and showing her that he likes her and he feels that should be more than enough. and because she feels like he doesn't like her anymore, she acts super duper clingy and bin really doesn't like it. like jangmi sometimes he just wants alone time okay? but his detachment makes her cry but he's tired of her crying so he wants to be alone! and their relationship hits a really rocky ( hahah ) point and the squad feels awkward as hell because if they break up like this, how will it affect friend dynamics??

the squad is Exasperated by all the couple trouble so they work together to get to the bottom of binmi's relationship issues and bring it to their attention. and basically, they're both mistreating each other because they're worried about the upcoming fall and university and adult life. like, jangmi thinks they should spend as much time together during the summer because they won't get to see each other as often when fall rolls around but bin thinks they should get used to be together less often so as not to put future strain on their relationship.

( basically like : beginning of summer everythings great! middle of summer conflict Happens™. end of summer is when they finally talk things out! ) 
 
ENDING: bin and jangmi talk things out and realize Things™, like they realize why they were fighting so much and so much tension is lifted but they also realize they see things differently? and that maybe it won't always work out if they don't learn and grow for their experience and make an effort to better accomodate each other.
 
STATEMENT: currently dating but like on the steps of adulthood and now they need to start thinking of themselves and their relationship seriously.
this interview is conducted by kwon hayoon.
 
HI HI! WHAT'S UP? HOW'S YOUR DAY BEEN GOING?
just the presence of jangmi's bosom friend makes her beam, "hayoonie! we pretty much spent the whole day together, remember? we were planning what to do for your church's bake sale! i was making a nice poster for you and everything! "
 
THAT'S NICE! WELL, WHAT'RE YOUR PLANS FOR THIS SUMMER?
jangmi smoothes her hair down and hums softly, "hmm... i'm gonna hang out with you and the others?" that was essentially all she had thought about, "maybe i'll attend some fashion and makeup workshops?"
 
AH I SEE! WHAT ABOUT AFTER SUMMER'S OVER?
"i'm gonna go to the school my parents want me to. but hayoonie has to promise me to visit a lot, okay?" she sticks out her pinky and when hayoon takes it, stamps their promises together with their thumb.
 
I'LL KEEP THIS SECRET FROM THE BOYS, BUT WHO'S YOUR FAVORITE OF THEM? YOUR LEAST FAVORITE?
her lips extend into a big grin, "my favorite boy is my binnie!" her fingers curl as she says it becaus honestly, it's embarrassing to admit. "did you really expect it to be any other way? as for least favorite.... i'll say sanha because he's mean to me." she makes a 'tt' with her fingers and hovers them over the apples of her cheeks.
 
COOL! WELL, I'LL SEE YOU LATER, MIMI!
"love you! so so so so much!"
COMMENTS: jangmi has the same bday as sailor moon. also!!! i did something different??? with binmi's love story?? i hope you don't mind that they're already dating and you can make sense of my rambling pt 2

( also can u tell i've never dated anyone before is this how relationships work )
 
SCENE SUGGESTIONS: 
sanha and jangmi bonding by her doing his makeup. idk i just love sanha with blush on.
 
PASSWORD: flowers.
