APPEARANCE mengran prides herself on her long black hair. she's only dyed her hair a few times in her life, but she usually fights tooth and nail not to dye it, although she wouldn't mind going blonde or a pastel color

often her looks are considered fox-like which is something she doesn't see, but she does enjoy that her fans do pay enough attention to label her so

Style mengran thinks that dark colors are what compliments her the most so when you open her closet it's just a black hole. she likes wearing skinny jeans and sweaters so you could say her style is rather simple

Other due to her fear of needles whenever she has to wear earrings they have to put clip ons or stickers on her

— ( o ) ; ditzy, airheaded, 4d, obvious, oblivious, care free, loud, good liar, sassy
— ( - ) ; forgetful, easily distracted, cry baby, well-meaning, easily angered

 
Personality
— ( friendly, talkative ) m3ngran accidentally makes friends, when she finds someone interesting that she'll want to talk to, she talks to them and typically will make friends with them. her members always joke because often times they're held up due to mengran having made a friend and won't stop talking to them.
— ( out going ) if you put mengran in a room with people she doesn't know, more than likely she'll be the first one to speak, this ties in with the fact that she's friendly. she'll probably leave the room with a few new friends at that. she loves to include people in conversations and make a fun environment for everyone.
— ( colorful ) her emotions are endless and they're very bright and obvious. when she's sad, she's literally the epitome of sadness from inside out. mopey and quiet. when she's happy, she's always bouncy and loud. her emotions are usually very exaggerated.
— ( ditzy ) this girl is giggly. she laughs at dumb jokes, doesn't click with 'smart' points easily and has a ton of 'blonde' moments.
— ( airheaded ) this fits with ditzy well, things just seem to go into one ear and leave the other as fast as it entered. she has very selective hearing and has a bad habit of tuning everything out and going off into lala land.
— ( 4d ) fitting with colorful, when ever she's experiencing an emotion, you always know she is, she's very readable when it comes to what she's thinking.
— ( obvious, good liar ) even though she has a thing for playing pranks, she usually can't get away with them because she always gets caught while trying to impliment them, or she laughs until the one she's trying to prank realizes she had done something. if she's hiding from someone her giggles will be heard so she's not an optimal hide and go seek partner. the only thing she's not obvious at, is telling lies, she can easily think them out and go for the strategical road.
— ( oblivious ) she never knows what's going on. reading the atmosphere is not her strong point and she's usually the one to ask when lunch is moments after a member got an ankle injury or something along the lines.
— ( carefree, sassy ) mengran goes with the flow and doesn't really let things bring her down, so she's rarely angry for long amounts of time, because she's so care free. because she has a lack of caring she's rather sassy and will always call someone out for something that comes to mind that's unsettling with her. she often speaks without thinking which could lead to her getting in trouble.
— ( forgetful ) the management is lucky that she can remember her lines and dances let alone her own name. she's okay with names but if you ask her a favor and she gets distracted, it will never get done until you pester her about it until it's completed.
— ( easily distracted ) the members joke that she has the attention span of a toddler
— ( cry baby ) whether it's a happy story or a sad story or she's angry enough, she'll more than likely shed a tear or at least tear up. sometimes if she's moved enough she'll completely bawl her eyes out.
— ( well meaning ) even though sometimes she may mean to do something in a positive light, it could easily go wrong, or even terrible. she's the best at accidentally doing these things.
— ( easily angered ) her fuse on the little anger bomb inside of her is probably less than two centimeters long. it takes a lot to anger her because she's not too picky, but when something does anger her, she goes off.

background
mengran was raised in a family of doctors, something that she's always trying to hide so there's nothing about her dad buying her way into the entertainment industry. this is clearly a lie because she got herself there. however since she's never mentioning her father's occupation to other trainees, things have been infered close to the actual reality.
her father wanted her to follow in his and his wife's foot steps, also the foot steps of her older brother and her grandfather to become a doctor. together her family had told her that she was going to become an oncologist and of course this didn't sit well with her.
when she told her parents that she wanted to audition to become a trainee, they let her do so, figuring that she either wouldn't get in or she would give up during the training process and go to college, so when she said that she was rejected by four companies, they were actually happy, but when she informed them that she was offered to train just weeks later, they let her do it, still believing that she would quit. after she told them that she was offered a trainee position and she was going to take it no matter what, they decided to let her go with it, trying to be as happy for her as she was for herself.

Trainee years 2011-2014
Trainee life because mengran had never been out of the country when she got accepted, the adjustment to the culture was hard on her so she often talked through it with the other foreign trainees, this at least gave her a piece of mind that she wasn't alone. because mengran also was from china it took her a while to enroll in school so the hours she'd spend at school were used for training. because of this mengran became hypercritical of herself and felt as if she weren't improving so she spent much more time training than the others and she began to choose training and sleep over food. this ultimately caused her to be exhausted and her body weight dropped as well, it was to the point of in order to debut, they actually had her put on some kgs because she was beginning to look unhealthy.

kim taehyung
backup jung hoseok (bts)

Personality taehyung's fans call him an alien, and that's the whole truth and nothing but the truth. he's a rather weird and care free soul, which is what attracts mengran to him. he doesn't get mad easily and he's very easy going. taehyung however can be quite dense at times so when mengran hints things to him and he doesn't get them, this is one of the most frustrating things to her. the only thing the two don't have in common is that taehyung is quite innocent in some aspects. mengran had a full run in high school so she knows entirely too much, which taehyung on the other end, trained for his high school years and doesn't quite match mengran there, but on the other hand, mengran really likes being able to lead him along.

Love story for a special stage on music core, many male idols and female idols were paired together, and taehyung and mengran happened to be one of the pairs. right off the bat mengran had interest in him because he was very handsome to her, and then his personality just sealed the deal and she began to pursue him just at the second group practice. she had the smart idea to ask for his number so she they could get together and he could help her outside of practice, and from there the mission was a go.

Ending mengran and taehyung finally ending up putting a label on their relationship even though they're practically dating before, they aren't public and don't necessarily plan to become so

Status flirtationship
