personality


RESPECTFUL : PASSIONATE :  AMBITIOUS : EMOTIONAL : POSSESSIVE: SENSITIVE : EGOCENTRIC : WORRISOME

hiroko is a determined, stubborn and very ambitious girl. she puts her all into whatever she does which is a big factor in how she got so far in her career. many people see her as polite and she prefers to keep it that way and will do her up most to make good a impression on everyone she meets. people like her manager and crew members see her as very pleasant and well mannered. while she strives to keep a professional look, on the inside, she's a mix and jumble of emotions and thoughts. she often feels very intense things from overwhelming joy to severe sadness that can cause her to cave into herself. with intense feelings can also come with intense anger and if she feels threaten or hurt, she'll try to defend herself. having so many strong feelings often lead her to in saying things she doesn't mean and will deeply regret it right after, causing her to seem impulsive and most commonly, irritable.

having many people seeing her as a good person and mature causes her to be "egocentric"; not in the sense that she's heartless and cares only about herself, but she deeply values what others think of her. she's paranoid about damaging her reputation she'll jump through endless hoops to keep her image positive, but never at the cost of others. she's easily hurt and said to be sensitive, especially when it comes to how people see her. if someone seems her in a remotely negative way, she will take it upon herself, and quickly assume that she must've done something wrong and try to fix it. this may cause her to be worrisome and insecure, and that fear doubles when it comes to her reputation.

while being known to being passionate this also comes with possessiveness, something she strongly has. whatever's her's is her's no and's or but's. she'll share though - she did grow up with three other siblings now - but if you try to steal someone or something then there becomes a problem. she'll be clingy if her insecurities get the best of her, and that's partly because she doesn't want to lose someone. she's afraid of being left alone so she keeps anyone and everyone she can close to her so she won't have to worry about that. regardless, her emotions will get the best of her and she will still have days where she'll feel alone in a room full of people.

character's background

hiroko is the daughter of famous japanese enka singers masako mori and shinchi mori. having three older brothers, she was subject to teasing by the boys as the only girl as well as the youngest. her oldest brother takahiro was the hardest towards her. the second oldest, tomohiro was the quiet genius and didn't pay too much attention to hiroko. while the youngest hiroki was the nicest to her but still annoyed the out of hiroko whenever she just wanted some alone time. with almost two years apart from each child, usually, all the kids got along well but strangely, while the meanest, takahiro was the closest to hiroko.

as a child being surrounded by music, she always enjoyed it as much as the rest of her family. she and takahiro even sang in the school talent shows together. growing up her parents fought endlessly and brought a lot of stress and trauma to the kids, and for hiroko, she developed depression because of it. she seeked comfort from her oldest brother despite being him being hardest on her. takahiro was the first one to inspire her to sing and helped her find her talent as a singer. while they both had different styles they preferred, they still found mutual likes in music and when hiroko brought up the idea to got into the korean entertainment industry, he was the first to know.

when hiroko was thirteen her parents got a divorce and her mother became much more strict with the children as she was given full custody of the four kids. takahiro, now 17, became rebellious and moved out to their grandmothers house and later joined his own band. as hiroko watched her brother become a rock singer she was sure that she wanted to go through with her dream of becoming a korean pop singer. if that idiot brother could do it, she could too right? when she told her mother, she was scolded but was given the chance like her brother and by the time she was 16 she had signed a contract with her first korean label.

family

  


- BROTHER : morita takahiro : 32 : singer of one ok rock

goofy, bad-tempered, rebellious

as the oldest of the bunch takahiro always felt it was his job to look after his younger siblings and looked after them when their parents were way with business. as children, takahiro would tease hiroko; pull at her hair, steal her things, and point and laugh at her if she made a mistake. however when tension was high he became a true big brother and was the best at cheering her up when she felt down. he has always had a bad temper and gets angry easily and has lashed out at his siblings, especially hiroko and hiroki since he was around them the most. he was never one to follow the ideas of his parents and wanted to inspire his siblings to do the same.

 

  


- BROTHER : moriuchi hiroki : 26 : singer of my first story

aloof, stubborn, hyper

as the youngest, hiroki was subject to so much babying he never knew what to do with it. however he was a little stain to hiroko sometimes. he would barge into her room as kids and scare the living day lights out her whenever he got the chance. he would sometimes play pranks on her or if he broke something would point a finger at hiroko to get her in trouble instead. but if someone were to ever pick on hiroki she would be the first one to call them out if takahiro wouldn't do it first.

 

- MOTHER : mori masaka : 61 : japanese enka singer

traditional, caring, supportive

as two women often do, hiroko and her mother got along well enough with some feisty moments every so often. her relationship with her mother though is stronger than that with her father who she has some remorse for. masako was the one who made hiroko be a studious "good girl" compared to her brothers who were all trouble makers. she was a lot tougher on hiroko to be mature and ready for the real world but would come off as naggy and strict. masako believes in tradition is had no problem living under her ex-husband's shadow which never sat well with hiroko. however as she matured, hiroko has grown to only love her mother and forget about the times she was a "mother" towards her.

 

- FATHER : mori shinichi : 72 : japanese enka singer

dynamic, smart, direct

in hiroko's eyes, her father was the one who started the fighting in the family and began to hate him when she was growing up. although he cares for her, she would avoid him at all costs and ignore his presence if he was in the room. however as she grew to be an adult, her remorse for her father lessened and she now visits him when she can and is making efforts to create a new and healthier relationship with him.

friends

  


- BEST BUDDIES : yun kwandi : 29 : model and actress

bubbly, demanding, affectionate

kwandi and hiroko met when they were both trainees under sm entertainment. kwandi noticed hiroko looking lost in the building and when she spoke to her, picked up quickly that she wasn't korean and din't speak a of it. thankfully for hiroko, kwandi knew some japanese and helped hiroko through the first few weeks when she first joined. they would often practice together, and sometimes give tips and tricks they learned. but soon kwandi was offered a modeling career by a different label. since kwandi wanted to be also in the acting field she hope that being a model might give her a better chance at being casted. so she dropped out of sm and joined the new label. since then, the two didn't have much contact until hiroko debuted where kwandi caught her at a music show and they got talking again as friends.

 

  


- THE FOURTH BROTHER : lee hongki : 30 : singer of ft island

aloof, thoughtful, funny, probably gay with takahiro

while not being the same close as he is with takahiro, hiroko and hongki chat a lot when they can and like to share funny things on off the internet and hangout together if they're able to. hongki helped hiroko a lot with learning korean as takahiro had asked him to do when she left as a trainee. there's never been any attraction romantically from either side, despite them admitting that they would date either other. the biggest factor that keeps them from actually dating is how close hongki is with takahiro which would just make things awkward if the relationship would take a turn for the worse. however, they sometimes have in-depth conversations about life like, "why are we humans here?" or, "what do you think happens when you die?", etc.

kim jonghyun ( shinee )

lee jaehyeong ( the rose )

personality

 

talened : energtic : kind : critical :
hot headed : emotional

 

to many, kim jonghyun is a hyper man who's blessed with a voice of an angel, and talented in music and is never one to give up. he's often optimistic and caring towards everyone he meets. he is greatly dynamic in personality and attitude, and is always able to grab the attention of a room full of people and entertains others with ease. he's a true performer with overflowing charms and a likeness to him that can be irresistible.

jonghyun is known for having a temper and it should never be targeted, but it's something he could never hide; it's just apart of him. he can get fired up in lightening speed if her feels attacked or you bright up his insecurities (usually about his height) and while having frequent outbursts, they can leave just as quickly as they came.

behind the sense, jonghyun can get caught up in his thoughts that send him spiraling down into a dark place. his fear of being ultimately misunderstood by his fans consumes him until he has no where else to go. he cries easily and he's never had a problem with that, he even cries on camera and becomes vulnerable with the public, but that's only a small piece of him. his label has suppressed him for years since a young age, and even though they have been giving him more freedom, the damage has already been done.

interaction with love interest

hiroko had seen shinee while in  japan and coming to korea saw them even more. when she started with sm entertainment, she had caught glimpses of him and many other new and old idols alike in the halls but she never had gathered the courage to speak to them.

they formaly met during a music show where he and other veteran idols came to meet the rookie group that were coached by their seniors super junior. being the kind of go-getter he is, jonghyun was the first to introduce himself to utopia and took an awkward liking to hiroko. because they didn't know each other on a personal level, their attraction was mostly based on appearance. she stuck out mostly as one of the shortest girls, (if not the shortest) and her heavy japanese accent made her strangely charming. 

their love of skinship goes hand-in-hand and if they're away from the cameras they can get touchy ( with boundries of course. ). while in public they try their best to keep some distance to keep everyone else in the current room comfortable but that's never stopped them from holding hands, giving a quick peak on the cheek or locking eyes from across the room.

there were times that jonghyun's anger got the best of him that caused rifts between them. he's gotten pissed by something and taken it out on her which caused her to get upset and her depression would consume her quickly and he wouldn't hear from her for weeks. deep down, she knew he would never want to hurt her which caused her to come back and mend herself with someone who she felt was the only other person that would understand and cheer her up (besides her brother).

training background

hiroko's first label was with her first choice, that being sm enterainment. she trained under sm for a collective two and half years and them handed to sj label to finish her training and be on route to debut.

hiroko excelled in her singing and was trained as one, and never had strict training as a rapper. she went in with her dancing at around an average skill level with minor mishaps. as a foreigner, she was mocked for her accent and common mistakes in the korean language but having skills in studying was able to improve within a short amount of time that brought her up to at least a basic conversational level by her debut time. she was given a couple of modeling opportunities  while with sm, but for very small businesses with small amount of pay and more relied on her brother and parents for financial support while she was away.

as a sm trainee she practiced good eating habits as well as a daily skin routine to clear up her skin and remove harsh blemishes. she was pressured into correcting her teeth and slight under bite as it wasn't the picture perfect sm entertainment seeked but she refused to have face alterations of any kind. while it caused some friction up front, the company was content with her creating an intense skin routine and losing excessive weight before her time of debut.

- if there's a special stage with super junior that would be pretty cool, or they do a cover of some sj song lol
- do that thing where the leader and maknae switch positions ( like the youngests can talk down to the oldests ) what's that called? i never figured it out haha
- dancer, rap, and vocal roles are switched for a verity show for s and giggles
- super cute moments with some of the girls' love interests because that would be cute lol
