appearance  YOONJI IS A FAIRLY TALL AT 169CM AND ON THE HEAVIER SIDE (FOR IDOL STANDARDS) AT 58KG, THE MAJORITY OF THAT BEING MUSCLE FROM YEARS OF BOXING. SHE HAS LONG LEGS AND A BIT OF CURVES TO HER BODY THOUGH IT'S NOTHING TO REALLY WRITE HOME ABOUT. SHE HAS LONG NATURALLY LIGHT BROWN HAIR, HOWEVER SHE'LL DYE IT HOWEVER SHE SEES FIT AT THE TIME. ANYTHING FROM DARK BROWN TO A BLONDE WITH HER ENDS DYED A LIGHT PINK, BUT SHE DOESN'T DO MUCH AS TO STYLING IT MOSTLY PUTTING IT UP IN A PONYTAIL IF SHE DOESN'T FEEL LIKE HAVING IT DOWN. SHE DOESN'T CARE MUCH MORE MAKE UP ONLY EVER PUTTING ON SOME EYELINER AND MASCARA, and she doesn't bother with manicures because without fail one way or another she will ruin it.  

fashion YOONJI IS DEFINITELY A CASUAL KIND OF GIRL THROUGH AND THROUGH. WHATEVER IS THE MOST COMFORTABLE AND EASIEST TO PUT TOGETHER SO SHE CAN GO ABOUT HER BUSINESS WITHOUT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT HAVING A WARDROBE MALFUNCTION. SHE ENJOYS BUYING CLOTHES THAT ARE TWICE HER SIZE, USUALLY MAKING HER LOOK BIGGER THAN WHAT SHE ACTUALLY IS, AND SNEAKERS OR BOOTS ARE HER SHOES OF CHOICE. TRYING TO GET YOONJI INTO ANYTHING THAT'S NOT PANTS AND A COMFY SHIRT IS LIKE A BAD TRIP TO THE DENTIST. IT'S ALWAYS A FIGHT AS YOONJI SEEMS TO HAVE A PERSONAL GRUDGE AGAINST SKIRTS AND DRESSES BUT SHE KNOWS WHEN SHE CAN'T AVOID WEARING THEM. A NECESSARY EVIL.
EXAMPLES


other Yoonji has a multitude of piercings on both of her ears, as well as a belly button piercing. She also has two tattoos, as of right now, the first one being on her left foot that she got out of defiance from her parents. the second one she got after being shot down constantly both underground and during her time as a trainee at YG right along the left side of her collarbone, it symbolizing that no matter how many times she's told no they can't keep her down or confine her creativity.

personality 
"Is everything alright? who do i need to beat up?"
YOONJI IS A GIRL WHO IS FULL OF CONFIDENCE. SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE WANTS AND HOW SHE'S GOING TO GET IT AND NO ONE CAN TELL HER OTHERWISE. SHE KNOWS JUST HOW GOOD HER SKILLS ARE AND WON'T SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS THAN WHAT SHE KNOWS SHE DESERVES. DESPITE HOW SHE MAY COME ACROSS SHE'S QUITE DEDICATED WHEN IT COMES TO ACHIEVING HER GOALS. SHE WON'T STOP FOR A SECOND EVEN WHEN SHE'S FRONTED WITH ADVERSITY EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. NO ONE CAN SAY THAT YOONJI DOESN'T WORK FOR WHAT SHE WANTS, AND IS ALWAYS STRIVING TO IMPROVE HERSELF TO ACCOMPLISH WHATEVER SHE'S SET OUT TO DO. THIS GIRL NOTICES JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING, AFTER TAKING CARE OF HER YOUNGER SISTER FOR SO LONG SHE'S BECOME OBSERVANT. JUST THE SLIGHTEST CHANGE IN A PERSON SHE'LL NOTICE AND WILL ASK IF THEY'RE DOING ALRIGHT, OR TRY SOME WAY TO CHEER THEM UP. HIDING SOMETHING FROM HER IS HARD TO DO AS SHE CAN USUALLY SEE RIGHT THROUGH WHATEVER LIE THEY'RE TRYING TO TELL HER. YOONJI IS EXTREMELY PROTECTIVE OVER THOSE THAT ARE CLOSE TO HER. ANY WAY THAT SHE CAN LESSEN THEIR BURDEN SHE WILL DO IT, AND LORD HELPS ANYONE WHO MAKES HER SISTER OR MEMBERS CRY WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO AN UNAMUSED YOONJI WHO WILL MAKE SURE THAT IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. IF SHE HAS TO BE THE SHIELD AND TAKE THE MAJORITY OF THE BACKLASHING SO BE IT, JUST SO LONG AS EVERYONE ELSE IS OKAY.

"Yeah just a second. i'm almost finished."
SHE NEVER STARTS ANYTHING THAT SHE CANNOT FINISH, AND MAKES SURE THAT ITS DONE THOROUGHLY AND PROPERLY. WHEN PRACTICING SHE WON'T END UNTIL SHE HAS IT DOWN COMPLETELY, WHICH DOES END UP TAKING A WHILE IN THE MAJORITY OF THE CATEGORIES SINCE ONLY HER RAPPING IS WELL DEVELOPED, BUT THAT DOESN'T STOP HER. SHE DOES HAVE TO PUT HER MONEY WHERE IS SO IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THAT SHE CAN BACK IT UP AND BEING THOROUGH WITH EVERYTHING IS HOW SHE DOES EXACTLY THAT. YOONJI HAS A COMEBACK AND A COMMENT FOR EVERYTHING AND IS A WITTY PERSON. HER TIMING IS PERFECT, ALTHOUGH SHE DOESN'T SAY IT IN A JOKING MATTER, IT'S HARD NOT TO ADMIRE THE APPROPIATE COMEBACKS WITHOUT EVEN SO MUCH AS A SECOND THOUGHT TO THEM. SHE CAN GO A BIT OVERBOARD, AS SHE'S MORE OF A TALK FIRST THINK LATER KIND OF GIRL, BUT IF SHE ACTUALLY MEANT WHAT SHE SAID THEN SHE WOULD MAKE IT VERY CLEAR WHAT HER INTENT WAS.     -

"What? No way, that's stupid and you know it."
YOONJI HAS A SERIOUS COMPETITIVE SPIRIT, AND CAN NEVER TURN DOWN A CHALLENGE. SHE GETS SUPER SERIOUS AND WILL NOT SETTLE FOR SECOND PLACE. SHE CAN BECOME QUITE RUTHLESS WHEN COMPETING, AND THEN SULKS IF SHE ENDS UP LOSING. SHE DOESN'T TAKE COMPETITIONS LIGHTLY AND GETS UPSET WHENEVER SOMEONE DOESN'T TRY JUST AS HARD AS SHE DOES. SHE CAN BE PRETTY OUTSPOKEN AND HAS NO PROBLEN LETTING HER OPINION KNOWN TO ALL THOSE WHO DIDN'T CARE AND DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT. SHE'S NOT ONE TO BACK DOWN TO ANYONE ALSO MAKING HER A STUBBORN PERSON. ONE CAN TELL YOONJI NO AS MUCH AS THEY WANT AND IT'LL JUST GO IN ONE EAR AND OUT THE OTHER, ESPECIALLY IF THERE'S NO GOOD REASON FOR WHAT'S BEING SAID TO HER. SHE'S A MULE THROUGH AND THROUGH ALWAYS DOING WHAT SHE THINKS IS BEST, EVEN THOUGH SHE KNOWS SHE'LL DEFINITELY GET IN TROUBLE FOR IT. She's also a tough girl, and can handle a lot that's thrown her way, but it also applies with how she comes across to others. she's definitely rough around the edges, and isn't one for subtlity. 

"you really should watch your mouth."
Yoonji is a blunt person, and doesn't understand the meaning of the phrase hold back. it just spills out of like a river flowing over a waterfall. she knows that what she says is hurtful and she knows that she shouldn't act that way but changing is easier said than done and she can't seem to stop. she does feel bad for those who she does hurt, at least the people who she likes. this girl is not afraid of confrontation, and honestly speaking likes it more than she probably should. she has no problem starting or finishing a fight. she will not tolerate anyone who says anything to just be mean. constructive criticism is one thing and blanant bahsing is another and Yoonji will the first one to remind anyone of that difference, complete with examples. needless to say she can be disrespectful, as it doesn't how old or important the person may be she doesn't care if they're rude she'll be rude right back. when asked why she acts this way she'll say that if they could simply tell her she has no talent or skills then she has every right to tell them that they're picking on a twenty-one year old because they literally have nothing better to do with their lives. fair is fair right?

"I'm sorry but who are you? and why am i supposed to care?"
Despite her confidence and usual " it" attitude, Yoonji is actually quite obsessive and worries about everything. is that song any good? did that harmony make any sense? was her dancing enough? Did anyone notice her mistake in the chorus? she's constantly thinking about it and fretting, which only makes her more irritable and more likely to snap than usual. now yoonji, though she does try, is about as tactless as they come. she's observant, but cannot for the life of her know how to handle a situation due to her lack of emotional understanding. she also cannot deal with anyone who cries in front of her, although it is amusing to watch the gears turn in her head and then mumble comforting words, even if they come out more like questions, and a few pats on the back before going to find someone who can handle it much better. Yoonji is wary of strangers, and it takes a lot before she'll trust a person, so many think of her as unfriendly, which honestly isn't too far off the mark. she's extremely protective of those who she finds deserves it, but there are only a few people who fit into that category. 

background
Baek yoonji was born in daegu on August 11, 1990 to a middle class family and while she was still a baby her parents had moved them to seoul because of a job opportunity for her father. ever since she was young, yoonji was opinionated, and had no problem letting people hear it, and since she wasn't a shy girl everyone could be a target if she felt the need for it. she would often get scolded in school by her teachers and it was always her mother who was there to apologize while yoonji huffed and refused to do anything, as she felt she was never in the wrong. when she was seven her younger sister seohyun was born, and it was love at first sight for her. she was always trying to get her mother to let her help take care of her and hold her. she didn't even mind as they both got older and yoonji had to stay home to watch her while her parents worked. when she turned thirteen her parents had sat her down and told her that they needed her to clean up her act, stop getting into fights at school, start paying more attention in class, helping around the house more, since as the older sibling it was her responsibility to be the example for her precious little sister seohyun, and yoonji hated it. for a couple of years she did really try not wanting to be any kind of bad influence to her little sister, but it was obvious she was miserable. 

When she was fifteen was when she finally couldn't take it anymore. she didn't want to study like they wanted her to, but instead wanted to try rapping and composing, something that had always interested her, going as far to learn how to play the guitar, piano and saxaphone to help with that dream. she'd even gone out and watched performances from some amazing rappers and well she wanted to do that, have that freedom and say what she wanted in such an artistic way. both of her parents, though her father Daejung, particularly had made it very clear that while she was under his roof she would do what he told her, and taking part in that kind of trash music was forbidden. so after a night of screaming back and forth arguing about this yoonji left the house saying that she just wouldn't live under his roof and then he couldn't stop her from doing what she loved. unfortunately she didn't have many friends, and the ones who she did have their parents didn't want her to stay worried about her attitude. so she was stranded for a while until her uncle dongwoon came to pick her up at a park near her home. he didn't say anything just grabbed her bag and brought her to his car, driving her to his apartment. apparently he got a phone call from her mother asking for this favor to look after yoonji, and he couldn't find it in him to tell her no although he wasn't thrilled about having his troublesome niece in his apartment.

yoonji had tried getting into the underground rap scene, but was basically chewed up and spit out, but it didn't stop her from continuing to try. she was told many times that her lyrics were too childish, she didn't have enough of a back bone to handle the criticism. and whenever she fought back it only proved the comments right, as she wouldn't listen to what people were telling her at first, but how could she when no one would take her seriously? she was trying and no one seemed to pay any notice to it. so in 2005 at sixteen she started auditioning for entertainment industries, but that also came up to doors slammed in her face. she didn't have the right look, they wanted someone softer not so rough around the edges, sure she had the skills as a great rapper but no one wanted that, and she never fit the concept that they were looking for. however there was a silver lining of sorts as she tried out for yg and was accepted in. she was so grateful and thought that this was definitely going to be her chance. it wasn't, sure she was training but even there she wasn't being taken seriously.

at seventeen she quit school to focus, desperate to show that she was one hundred percent serious about making a career out of this but was always given reasons as to why she wasn't given a chance. it's not your time yet, you need to focus on making everything good not just rapping, you're not trained in composition so why would we take a chance on these? for two years she was told all of these and brushed past for others, who in her opinion were just as unknown and could use more work. she knows that not everyone gets what they want in just a couple of years, some people train for almost a decade before being given a chance, but yoonji knew that staying here she wouldn't get it at all they'd just keep her going around in circles telling her this and that she was ready to leave in 2006. they convinced her to stay one more year saying that although she wasn't ready to debut maybe there was something she could do as a possible music composer. she had the skill, they knew that she had taken many classes online. they were debuting a boy group and wanted her to compose for them. she accepted although wasn't thrilled that it wasn't for herself, but did it anyway. it went on like that for two more years until in 2008 she left not able to take it anymore, especially since she wasn't getting a lot of regnotion for it. she loved composing truly but she didn't want to just compose for others she wanted to compose for herself, but she was also getting burned out. near the end of 2008 she auditioned for moonlight entertainment, deciding that if it didn't work out this time she would give up.


likeS 
Sweets: she has a serious sweet tooth, its a weakness of hers, and can usually be used as a bribe. 
music: a pretty obvious answer but she really does love it, it's her escape and she loves the challenge that it brings her
sleep: what's not to like about it? 
kdramas: a guilty pleasure, and she used to watch them with her sister when they were still living in the same house. 
coffee: how else is she supposed to be up at ungodly hours?
thunderstorms: there's something that's calming about them 

dislikes 
Bugs: she will literally scream and run from them 
— Being looked down upon: if she feels like she's being disrespected and looked down upon she will fight them 
summer: it gets way too hot and she feels like she's melting
clowns: no one wearing that much paint on their face can be that happy, not to mention they can be super creepy
early mornings: the girl will work through the night when deeply emmersed in a project and be fine, but as soon as the sun rises she'll be a whole new level of crabby
smoking: she really cannot stand the smoke smell, and has argued with her uncle about his nasty habit a number of times

hobbies 
composing: it's both an escape and a good time for her, she can spend days working on one piece and it only feel like a couple of hours. 
boxing: she has always liked doing as a kid, and it's a good safe way for her to vent out her frustrations
cooking: she's quite good at it having lots of practice from taking care of her sister
Collecting small keychains: another one that was started with her little sister. they'll often exchange the ones that they bought so they will always have something of each other even when they're far apart. 

habits
snores: she snores when sleeping, quite loudly at times but doesn't believe anyone when they try to tell her 
cracking knuckles: when upset or angered she'll pop her knuckles 
deep breathing: as a way to try and keep her cool she will do deep breathing excerises to try and not blow up at someone
stuttering: when she gets flustered, which isn't often but it does happen, she'll stutter and trip over her own words not making much sense, but it's amusing to watch

fears 
disappointing her sister: she wouldn't be able to live with herself if she were to do something that would genuinely upset seohyun to the point that she won't talk to her
claustrophobic: she's really no good in small enclosed spaces, and will start to hyperventilate
failing: she's come so far that if she didn't make it through now then it would be devestating and she wouldn't know what  to do
not making up with her parents: yes she left home and hasn't really contacted either of per parents but they are still her family and she does want to make up with them but doesn't know how at this point. since whenever they're in the same room a fight breaks out even now years later

family
— Younger sister : baek seohyun : 15 : student : although she may not be on speaking terms with her parents at the moment, she speaks to her sister all the time. she adores seohyun and is always checking up on her, making sure she has her homework finished and is doing well in school (despite having been a terrible student herself). One wouldn't think that they were seven years apart with how they joke and tease each other constantly. seohyun is too intelligent for her own good and is scheming a way to get her stupidly stubborn sister and equally stubborn parents to sit down and work things out. she's tired of being the go between and definitely reminds them all that they're adults and shouldn't need a fifteen year old to be the mediator between them, and is looking for help.
— Grandmother : baek minsook : 70 : Retired : yoonji loves her grandmother dearly and is willing to do just about anything for her, and really appreciates how supportive she is toward her dream. she's one of the few in the family who actually thinks she has a chance at this whole thing, but really wishes that her granddaughter and son would just get along already it's starting to get old and well she would know and makes sure to say as such at every family dinner. 
— Uncle : baek dongwoon : 39 : real estate agent : yoonji is really grateful for her uncle, when she first stormed out of the house after a particularly heated argument with her father and didn't have a place to stay, her uncle picked her up and let her stay with him for some time. unlike her sister and grandmother her uncle doesn't push the whole 'you need to talk to your parents' issue too much but will nag her about leaving her crap all over his apartment and being super loud all hours of the night. but other than that it's a pretty easy going roommate situation, although eventually dongwoon would like to have his apartment to himself again.

friends
— best friend : jung eunha : 22 : photographer : eunha has been friends with yoonji since middle school and has always been one who didn't put up with her crap and smacked her when she needed it. they are extremely close and know just about everything about each other. eunha is the only other person who's been able to call yoonji jinnie and not get a death glare. eunha is amazing photographer and yoonji is always there to say as such when she sees some of her best friend's work in well known magazines. 
— friend : Kim Junho : 23 : idol : even after leaving yg she kept in touch with Junho, mostly because he would'nt let her forget about him. She never will admit it but she does value junho as her firned and will typicallly message him up, under false pretenses, when she's having trouble with one of her compositions or having difficulty with her lyrics. 
— rival : lee yeseul : 21 : soloist : yoonji and yeseul didn't meet until after astral's debut, when over the internet people had started comparing them and stating that they were both very similar both in skill and personality. yoonji of course did not like that and starting working even harder to show that she's different from this soloist. however it only had them being compared more and more to the point where they both starting getting sick of the comments and each other. every time they cross paths words are always said and sparks fly. people worry that maybe one day they're actually going to physically fight but so far so good.

stage name Yoonji
stage persona honestly there's not a lot of change in yoonji when she's on stage, except that she absolutely commands attention and is even more confident, if that's possible. she does come across as more girl and less standoffish, one who's quite good at the fanservice in a variety of winks smiles and cute actions. she looks way more friendly and sociable. 

trainne years 3 years YG (2005-2008); 2 1/2 years moonlight (late 2008-current)
traniee life training at moonlight was just about the same as it was at yg, except there were definitely more people who she had clashed with, but she was still given a little composition opportunities as she had already had some experience at her last company. yoonji was getting into the sing of things, minus vocal training, something that she seriously at. her rapping was on point, dancing wasn't terrible, but singing was just something that she didn't quite grasp, by the time she was chosen to be in astral she could hold a note but she wasn't going to move anyone with it. in 2009 moonlight had gained a new trainee in park mina and well it was hate at first site. every time they were in each other's presence they fought like cats and dogs. yoonji couldn't stand the brat's attitude and mina felt the same. they fought so much that it was part of the reason that she was about to be kicked out. so she was surprsied when minho had approached her about joining the new group, and well she wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth, even if it was a group. it took her a while to warm up to the other girls, but soon she found herself laughing with them and minho's and misaki's determination rubbed off on her and she was certain that she would acheive her goals with them.

nicknames
won/wonnie : a simple nickname that just about everyone, except yoonji calls him
Stupid : what yoonji will call him, because it's what he is and there's no reason to bother calling him something else
 
birthdate July 28, 1989
age 22

traits
positive: charming, eloquent, Reliable, Simple
neutral: Ambitious, Casual 
negative: Arrogant, Devious, Lazy, obnoxious

personality 
Wonshik is undoubtedly
charming, and pleasant to be around. he has this air about him that just makes a person want to stay around him since he just comes across as being so likeable. it also helps that he's super good looking, something that he definitely uses to his advantage, on top of his good manners it's hard not to fall for this guy. on top of all that he's quite the eloquent speaker, never seeming to stumble over his words. he can be seriously persuasive with his fancy word play and pleasant attitude, making those close to him both jealous and exasperated with it. he is actually reliable, and always seems to come up with the solutions for problems that arise. he also seems to have everything with him in his bag of mystery. need a bandaid? he has it and antibotic cream. Pen and paper? he has it covered, complete with a multitude of colored ink options. it's a little scary how prepared he is, but it comes in handy so no reason to question it. despite how he may come across as someone who's needy, wonshik is a simple guy. he doesn't need a lot to be content, and if someone suggests anything he's 100% cool with all of it. he doesn't like to overthink as it usually causes a jumbled mess inside and outside of the brain, and well that's too complicated for this guy. he tries to get others to see the same but really no one else can seem to understand it.

Wonshik is however
ambitious and wants nothing more than to succeed in his career. he's grateful for the super amazing job that he had landed, but he's always looking ahead and thinking about how he can improve himself, even if it means leaving people behind in the end. he doesn't want to hurt people but at the same time, one has to do what they can to make it where they want to go. He's a casual kind of guy, who isn't really going to show his concern about much, and likes to think that he's familiar and on good terms with everyone. he does get on some people's nerves since he doesn't really look like he's taking things seriously when he just shrugs his shoulders and says that they'll work around it, but at the same time that disconcerning nature makes it so that no one else goes completely insane with worry. 

Wonshik's biggest downfall is that he is
arrogant. he knows people like him, and that he has some amazing skills, and makes a point that everyone knows it. his arrogance gets out of hand more often than not recieving a lot of eye rolls and exasperated sighs. he does have friends who try to deflate that ego but as soon as he gets a praise or the right amount of attention it inflates all over again. he can be devious when he wants to be, because everyone needs to have their fun. even if that fun is at someone else's expense. he's not going to lie he has some underhanded things to make sure that he made it ahead of the pack but it wans't anything that got someone in trouble so in his eyes it wasn't all that bad. wonshik does work hard while at work, and comes across as someone who has their whole life together, but he's a serioiusly lazy person. when at home he does nothing, just lays around watching tv. laundry is piled in a corner that he just grabs from every day because it's more convinient. his work papers thrown everywhere on his dining room table. it's a complete 180% to how he is at work, so it's a shock whenever he has someone come over, because he doesn't bother cleaning even then, and will just sit on the couch telling them they can do what they want. for someone so charming he can also be so obnoxious. saying the same thing over and over again, repeating himself to the point of people wanting to bash their head into a nearby wall. mostly it's all about "amazing" that he did and got regonized for, and even if someone tells him no one cares, he'll continue anyway. he just likes to listen to himself talk and this is the best way for him to do it, even if it makes his coworkers have to bring heardbuds to block him out.

Kim wonshik was born on july 28th 1989 in seoul south korea. he had an average childhood, but was always interested in photography and his parents were supportive the whole time, buying him his first nice camera when he was in middle school, just so long he kept his grades up. he was a good student anyways so that was never the problem and was definitely something that he could do no problem. he took pictures of everything and anything he could. people, wildlife, traffic signs, food, he did it all and loved every bit of it, so much that he decided to continue to pursue it in college, as his major. he never regretted it, but did minor in business finance, to make his parents happy that he would have something else to fall back on.

He didn't run into any trouble until he got his first job as a photography company that was extremely cut throat, and no one could be trusted. he accepted the challenge head on and though it was a little concerning that he didn't have trouble doing what was necessary to move up. he didn't just want to stay the assistant so when he found a way to move up, even if it was at the expense of his immediate supervisor, he took it. after working in that position for a couple of years he moved on to the company that he currently works at meeting eunha, a spirited girl who wouldn't put up with his nonsense, and it was until he met her childhood friend that he finally understood why that was. he thoroughly enjoys this new company and the more laidback nature that it is, and plans to stay.

love story  
It all started with a harmless text message from her so called best friend asking if she was free to meet up with her and to meet a coworker of hers from her new job. of course yoonji wasn't thrilled about having to deal with a stranger, even if eunha did like him, but she knew better than to say that or she'll be dragged out of the practice room by her ear, and she really didn't want anyone witnessing that, so she agreed. just five minutes into the introductions she could already tell tht she hated this guy. arrogant didn't even begin to cover this guy's personality. he just wouldn't shut up talking about accomplishment this award that, and yoonji was about to shove her precious donout down his throat just to get him to stop talking. the worst part of it all was that he thought he was charming, sure he wasn't bad looking, anyone could see that, and he did have a way with words, he just kept going on and on about himself until she literaly couldn't take it anymore and yelled at him to just shut up already. the outburst didn't phase him in the slightest and he grinned looking at her from across the table, "so you do talk. that's nice to know, i was wondering since you are supposed to be a performer but all you said was your name and nothing more since we got here." Yoonji only scoffed and looked in the other direction, very clearly done with and had said what she needed to. much to her annoyance however her reaction only seemed to amuse him some more and continued talking like nothing happened. for once she was happy when she had gotten a message from minho saying they needed her back and excused herself saying goodbye to eunha and ignoring wonshik when he tried to say goodbye, but was fuming when she heard that annoying laugh, making a mental note to tell eunha that she was never meeting any of her coworkers ever again. 

Unfortunately for her it didn't end when she left the table, because soon after she got two messages one from eunha, stating that she gave wonshik her number, and the second be the man of the hour sending her a 'it was nice meeting you we should do it again sometime it'll be fun'. she decided not to answer back to either of them and ignored the majority of his messages, until after almost three months months of messages that consisted of emojis she didn't know exsisted that she actually threw her phone across the room of the dorm apartment and walked out, saying she was going to the gym to work out, not bothering to pick up her phone from the floor. luckily it wasn't broken and she was very relieved after coming back and sat down giving the others a thumbs up that she was now okay, and answered back. 'Stop blowing up my phone. i don't want to talk to you.' 'i think you do otherwise you wouldn't have answered.' Yoonji could feel her eye twitch at the smug smile she could almost see through the message and groaned sprawling on the floor literally giving up, making everyone more worried since this was strange even for yoonji. 

it continued like this for a good a few more months, and it was very obvious that yoonji was not playing wonshik's game and wasn't planning on doing anything that involved him. unforunately she had a little demon of a best friend commonly known as eunha, and she should have known better but didn't think anything of it when she was asked to meet her at a cafe to catch up, and it worked out that she had an off day that week so they made a plan, and she was excited. until she walked through the door and saw wonshik reading a magazine and smiled at her when he looked up. she immediately tried to leave but was stopped by him. "eunha said that she was coming, but if i'm being perfectly honest I'm happier that you walked through the door." Yoonji actually gagged and got in line to order her coffee, might as well since he wasn't going to let her leave and well she didn't want to cause a scene, even if she wasn't popular. when she had gotten the glorious beverage and a slice of strawberry pound cake, what minho didn't know wouldn't hurt him, she sat down and remained silent. wonshik watched yoonji as she unconsciously smiled eating her cake, and then was startled when wonshik poked her cheek smacking his hand away on instinct. "You're ten times prettier when you smile. too bad it's only at food. I'd give anything to have it directed at me." Yoonji resisted the urge to gag again and glared at him. "please stop talking you're ruining the taste of my cake." the rest of the "date" was spent in comfortable silence, which only made yoonji uncomfortable as she had never been in a situation like this. when she got up to go he also got up offering to take her home, to which she refused and left without another word. she got home not realizing that she was smiling to herself until she was asked if she had a good time with eunha to which she flushed on impulsive and shook her head going to the couch, not saying another word, secretly trying to fan her slightly red cheeks. 

She wanted more time to figure out why she was smiling about a stupid arrogant guy who liked the sound of his own voice too much, but wasn't given it when she met him on one of astral's schedules. he was going up in the elevator as they were getting on, well she was pulled in by minho saying that they didn't have the time to wait for her at the top, and she didn't want to admit that she was terrified of being in that elevator, and show weakness in front of everyone else, so she held it in. she made it up four floors and several more people before she couldn't take it anymore and when she saw the door open pushed several people out of the way with a mumbled apology and ran out of elevator before the doors closed and into an empty hallway where she was trying to regain composure, and send minho a message that she was okay and sorry and will meet up with them in a minute, promise. she didn't read the reply text as she started the deep breathing excerises that she'ss been doing recently. she jumped and screamed when a hand grabbed her shoulder, still hypersenistive, but was shocked to see that it wasn't minho or the girls but wonshik. "hey you okay? you kind of freaked out in there" she nods still shaking and not able to create sentences that made sense and slid down the wall trying to regain what little composure she had left. she didn't notice wonshik left until he came back handing her a water bottle and sat down next to her. "Drink it'll help, and you don't have to explain yourself to me but the people you were with were very worried you should tell them, especially if it's something serious like this." he stayed with her quiet for once for several minutes, before getting up and patting her head. "I have to get to work now but i hope you feel better and if you need anything just call. you have my number." he gives her a grin and a wink before leaving as yoonji just stared at him more confused than ever, that this guy knew exactly what she needed, quiet support, and didn't ask what was wrong. she pulled herself together and met up with her group explaining what happened, although it was with a lot of embarrassment and a red face. 

It wasn't until almost a year later that yoonji agreed to have wonshik take her out on a real date, she was still figuring things out, but with a lot of unwanted help from seungjae and mei they made her see that she was falling for this guy, no matter how much she didn't want to and was scared of actually enjoying herself, but also pushed her to give it a try especially after the whole elevator freak out. so she did and well it was a quiet affair, just a simple walk through the park, trying to as inconspicious as possible so that she wouldn't be spotted. she really wanted to not enjoy herself but she did and it was actually really nice. she still had to tell wonshik to shut up when he went off on a tangent about himself in the middle of a story about work, only to laugh when he looked genuinely hurt by the comment. it was the start of several other dates, very much about the same kind and timing. she really liked it though and preferred them over the bustling crowded places that most people wanted to go. she would never admit that she was scared of officially going out with wonshik, but she 100% was. she only ever completely trusted a select few and well she never expected that he would be considered in the running for that list but when she had come to that realization she didn't know what to do. but she really didn't have to because wonshik had of course beat her to it on another one of their dates. "you know at this point you should know that i really like you. i thought that i would like a person as much as i like myself but you are that person. is it your job that's stopping you?" yoonji was shocked at the honest and sincere confession from someone who up until a couple of years ago who she didn't think was capable of having those thoughts. she shakes her head though sighing, but grabs his collar pulling him down to kiss his cheek. "it's not my job, you should know i don't care about what they say about my personal life. you wanna go out? then lets go out. tonight it's official."

Hey Clara! Thanks for applying~ I really enjoyed reading Yoonji’s app. I like her personality, especially since it'll probably end up causing some drama to the overall story. I enjoyed reading her background (the length was just right for detailing why she's the way she is) and I enjoyed reading about her familial relations, especially her uncle's. He probably dying for her to debut so that he can finally have his apartment all to himself. The inclusion of boxing as a hobby and the effects that it has on her body type is really interesting and I feel like it suits her character a lot. It would also mean that Yeseul wouldn't stand a chance if the two got into a fist fight. Speaking of Yeseul, she was exactly what I had in mind when I thought about the rapper's rival, especially that showdown on Unpretty Rapstar! Her relationship with Mina would be tons of fun to write, and I can see it spilling over into the public creating a bit of a scandal ^^:. I enjoyed reading her love story, the way it develops is really cute. Especially how Yoonji doesn't realize what she's feeling right away.

Overall, I really enjoyed reading about Yoonji! I also didn't notice any mistakes, so Yoonji is now accepted~ Thanks again for applying ♡
