personality.  

positive: When you first take a look at Hwajin, she would appear reserved and quiet, and that because she is. She doesn't like talking unless she has to, otherwise she would just be reserved, in her own little world. She hates being the center of attention. With that being said, Hwajin is very reliable and friendly. You may think she is very cold, and doesn't care about anyone, but she actually has a big heart. Whenever someone is down, she would try to cheer them up and talk to them. Hwajin is very studious, she loves books and art, always having a book near her. When it comes down to making decisions, Hwajin is rational about her decisions, thinking about the pros and cons about the situation. And lastly, Hwajin is tremendously diligent. She has an huge urge of not giving up, no matter what it takes.
negative: Hwajin is restless, especially when she's stressed. She can't be still, she has to do something when she feels like she's under pressure. With that, she gets obnoxious with her habits and just annoys everyone around her without any knowledge of it. Hwajin can also get very stubborn at times, especially when she's sad, tired, or stressed. At these times, Hwajin prefers to be alone and thinks she can deal with it herself but in reality, she can't. Because of this, Hwajin can be extremely insecure and doubtful about herself. Besides from that, Hwajin can be sarcastic, or so she thinks. She is not very good with humor, and when she is being "sarcastic", a lot of people takes it the wrong way and thinks she is bringing them down, resulting in them sometimes loathing Hwajin.

background.  

Ahn Hwajin was born on May 13th, 1995 in Lyon, France. Her parents moved to France after they got married. They were a married couple for 5 months before Hwajin was born. Hwajin had a lot of trouble living in France, mostly cause of her ethnicity. Its not common finding Koreans in France. People called her Heli because they couldn't pronounce Hwajin properly, so that's where she got her stage name from. At the age of 6, her family moved back to South Korea because Hwajin's family in Korea was always nagging them to not live in France.
Her family is originally from Busan, so that's where they lived when they moved from France. Hwajin only visited Korea once or twice, but that was when she was an infant. Growing up, Hwajin always had a soft spot for acting. So that's why when she was 18, she auditioned for JYP Entertainment as an actress. At first she didn't make it the first time, but she got it the second time. Then in 2014, she got her first role as young Jang Guk/Dalrae in "12 Years Promise" when she was 19. Her parents made her pulled out of JYP shortly after the drama, because they didn't think she'd get any other roles and it would be a waste of time.
Along with her love of acting, Hwajin also had a sweet spot for music. She would blare SNSD and U-Kiss' music throughout her house, and would have little dance parties with her friends. Hwajin's friends were those typical K-POP fans, wanting to skip school because a group dropped a MV and dreaming to become an idol to get close with their favorites. Hwajin, on the other hand, while she liked K-POP, she was alot of a calmer fan of group, not even necessarily a fan, just enjoying the music. So how did she end up in Woolim Entertainment as an idol? Well, at first, she didn't have a desire to become an idol, becoming an actress was her number one priority. And while, she didn't want to give up acting, she knew that her dream of having her own movie and a big mansion was not going to happen. 
She decided she wanted to be an idol after the drama, and re-audtioned for JYP as an idol, and they rejected her. Although Hwajin was sad, she didn't give up. She audtioned for a few more companies and eventually ended up in Woolim Entertainment at the age of 20.
Hwajin's parents wasn't supportive of her idol dream at first, main for the same reasons as her being an actress. They would always point out how hard the whole idol process is, how she'd never make it, and becoming a dentist would be much more easier. But after many days of convincing her parents to become and idol, Hwajin's parents finally agreed too let her become an idol.

   time for q&a

nice to meet you lady, can you introduce yourself?

"Hello!" smiles and waves "I'm Heli aka Ahn Hwajin from Diam, please take care of me!"
Diam will gonna have a different color than Lovelyz had, can you give me your opinion?

thinks for a moment "It's... different. Normally when girl groups debuts, they would usually do a cutesy concept. With Diam, it's nice to be set apart from other girl groups once in a while."
