beautiful.
aju nice!
APPEARANCE —
Standing at the height of 167cm (5'6") and weighing about 59kg (130lbs), you can say that Qian has an ideal and healthy physique. She's perfectly proportioned, with long limbs, torso, and legs. However, she does have rather wide hips- something she's actually insecure about but has been complemented on by others. She's also got slightly broad shoulders but this time, Qian actually likes showing them off when she can. The female thinks that they look prettier that way. Aside from those, there's not much difference with her and the photos she'd take of herself. Fair skin with a hint of yellow; straight, dark brown, medium length hair; almond shaped, hazel eyes; a high nose; and plump lips (that needs to have color or else she'd look really pale and sick).
style —
Qian doesn't necessarily have a specific 'look' that she's going for. Rather, her whole outfit would depend on three points: her mood, the weather and/or where she's going, and the availability of said clothing in her closet. There will be days where she'd doll herself up and wear expensive looking pieces like rompers, dresses, long coats, jewelry, and heels. On other days, she's be seen wearing her favorite yellow hoodies, mom jeans, sneakers, and a cap. Brand isn't really important to Qian, it just so happens that the expensive ones are the more comfortable ones, and it's a total gem if she finds the same quality on online stores or thrift shops. With this being said, yes, fashion is important to Qian but so is comfort and quality. She wouldn't mind buying make up, shoes, accessories, and on some occassion shoes online however, dresses, pants, tops, and other articles under the same category must be purchased personally.
As for her make up choice, Qian would prefer wearing light or "fresh" make up but would heavily rely on finishing the look with her signature red lips. Of course she'd also play around with the colors pink and orange, but it's almost always among just these 3 choices. Then there's her ever colorful fingernails. The design on them changes almost every week, and would almost always be the oddest yet most satisfying thing you'd see. The nail art ranges from pop and rainbow colors, to glitters and metallics. Although due to her lifestlye, Qian does keep her nails a little on the short side, which doesn't really ruin the art.

(-) stubborn, dominant, cold and ruthless, insensitive, intolerant, superiority complex
Sy Qian is by far one of the most complex people you'll ever meet- which is actually why she's the simplest one as well. Come to think of it, the only reason why people would even suggest that it's "easy" to guess what's inside the female's head is of how she presents herself to the public. Qian is seen as a an ambitious and charismatic young woman, who doesn't go by any given standard- especially not that of how women have been traditionally perceived. These thoughts of course, althought true, are only the shallow part of who this boss lady really is.
Like what has been mentioned, Qian is a work oriented woman- something she's gotten from her equally driven mother. This idea is supported by her other personality traits that helped bring her business from the ground up. It all stems from how determined she is to get things done. She isn't someone who'd take "No" for an answer, and would use her charisma to convince and inspire other people to jump in on her cause. Even in difficult situations, Qian is strong-willed and would strive harder to achieve her end goal. She'd help lighten the tension with her confidence and lead her people into doing their 100% to keep the productivity going with minimum wasted time and effort. This, alongside her never ending energy and efficiency, are what makes her a great work commander.
However as all these traits highlight Qian's ambitious self, this also brings out the negativity in her. As no boss is perfect, this woman is the same. Because of her mindset, Qian can sometimes come off as someone stubborn and dominant, which isn't all that bad. However, sometimes all her confidence and willpower can go too far, as she tends to push her vision alone and would sometimes care less of other's suggestions. There are also times when her energy may tire out the people around her- like after all that's happened, you wouldn't really know how tired you are unless you've timed out and have finally gotten a breather. Because of this, Qian is also seen as someone cold and ruthless when it comes to the workplace. Her obsession with efficiency and productiveness in her work field makes the female incredibly insensitive and intolerant of obvious mistakes when pursuing certain goals and/or deadlines- deeming everything else aside from work irrelevant. The thing is, Qian isn't exactly aware of this behavior herself, not unless someone close to her points it out (mostly by her 2nd brother is the only person who can do this). Actually, this part of her is the result of her upbringing as well. Being someone who wasn't given much second thought over, especially by her father's relatives, has pushed Qian to always do her 100% on everything that she does. This has also given her that superiority complex wherein everything that she is helps conceal that feeling of inferiority and failure- something she does not want anyone to see her fall into. Though really, the only major flaw she has in the work place is Qian's tendency to take things to the next level when things don't go originally as planned (and when people somehow becomes irresponsible).
Despite all these, the woman at work only ever stays at work. If she isn't wearing her "Lady Boss" facade, Qian is nothing more but a soft ball- with a mini knife on hand. For one, once all things have been said and done, Qian would immediately let go of any bad feelings. She isn't really one to hold a grudge or dwell on the past. With that said, if she learns that she's somehow offended someone, she wouldn't mind letting her guard down to personally apologize. Others may not accept as fast but anyone could feel the truth in her every word. If there's something about the female that everyone would agree too, it's the sincerity in everything Qian says and does. She isn't a fake person, that's for sure. You'll just have to look closely to decode anything about her. She's also pretty much a cute and feminine person, until you become obstructive. Qian is that person who'd make dad jokes and laugh at them herself, as well has someone who has those weird obsessions (e.g. color-coding and organizing everything to a T). She's also that friend who's quite the spontanious adventurer and party goer- basically the opposite of who she is (in a bad mood) at work. But of course, she's only human and has her own insecurities as well. Physical appearance matters to her, "Because making a good first impression matters." She also doesn't mind (and greatly appreciates) hugs and openly being affectionate towards her- but she'd never say it herself.
don't wanna cry.
background —
Sy Qian has always been one of the more "blessed" or "priviledged" females in both her home countries of South Korea and Taiwan. What else do you expect from the only (precious) daughter of a former olympic athlete turned ceo and a renowned surgeon. Although despite the seemingly perfect life the Sy's are putting up, not everything is running smooth within the family. Tension has always been with this clan but it only got worse when Qian's father remarried, to her mom nonetheless. Regardles of her clean reputation as well as the money and honor that Qian's mother brings to the family, the fact that she is half and coming from what people call "new money" is still seen as unacceptable. Despite these, the wedding still happened and the only daughter was conceived. Qian has two older brothers prior her brith, the youngest son finds himself immediately taken by his younger sister while the eldest brither still had his doubts.
Now growing up, Qian has always tried to associate with both her parents cultures, which explains why she grew up moving back and forth from South Korea and Taiwan. During this period, the young girl was able to differentiate and find similarities between the two cultures and families. For one, Qian didn't mean much back at home. Sure she was given material things by her father's relatives but they always seemed so cold and empty when her father isn't around personally. Qian's maternal relatives on the other hand were very warm although are not able to give her lavish gifts, they usually played with her and took her out in fun places. Comparing the two, the youngest Sy could definitely say that she's attracted to her maternal relatives more than paternal, which resulted in her staying in South Korea for about three years before returning to Taiwan. That three years definitely left an impression on the girl and as a result, Qian knew what she had to do.
By eighteen, Qian decided to leave her paternal family's nest and pursue her college education and career in her mother's home country. Not surprisingly, not everyone voiced out any type of disagreement or sincere concern over her decision. One relative, as a representative of the rest, merely reminded her to watch her image because Qian's actions could affect the family name. This sealed the deal for the girl and a few months later, Qian finds herself in a quaint apartment (good enough for regular college students) all to herself, a few blocks aways from her chosen university where she studied business and arts.
current life —
Qian's lifestyle at present is no different from your average celebrity in South Korea and Taiwan. She looks as if she's living the life everyone has dreamed off and basically, she deserves it. Although sure, some of her business trips outside of South Korea is funded by her father and/or mother- or sometimes her brothers, the rest of her trips and other business ventures all came from her hard earned money. Currently the CEO of a fast growing concept store, Qian's business caters towards a wide range of audience and has a variety of products. (Meraki) mainly offers homeware, crafts, stationery and gifting products; and has expanded to handmade and customized pottery, bags, tshirts, scents, as well as succulents. Qian also does some interior designing on the side, mostly for close friends and referals- which is how she learned of (and help design) Club Seventeen.
Apparently, Qian's junior in business school had a friend, who had a friend named Lee Yeonjin, who was thinking of creating her own Night Club and was asked if she could look it up as a favor. Being up for the challenge, the overly excited girl agreed to the offer- not really aware that the Night Club was actually a Strip Club as well. It was only later in the design and into meetings with her client, Yeonjin, did she learn of the project's true identity. Of course, not one to back out, Qian still went with the project- with a few precautions of course (like hoping that her involvement with project would not reach her family in Taiwan). Though Qian wasn't able to make it to the Club's opening, she finds herself going back to the place a few times, especially recently when her family starts bringing up talks of engagements once more. The girl doesn't usually hang at the open or common area however, but would usually sneak into one of the VIP booths after staying at the bar, while taking a swig and probably dragging Yeonjin and/or Chan with her, or in one or two occassions Seungcheol and another female bar tender. (this would explain how not all the dancers know who she is and how she's actually a frequent customer)
Qian's instagram makes it seem like the young CEO's got nothing on her plate when in fact, her schedule is almost always packed. Weekdays are usually made for meetings (with employees), store and product inspections and improvements, and more meetings (with clients). There are also days when she has to attend interviews, events, and photoshoots. The only good thing about being a CEO is that you get to arrange your own schedule, which is why Qian's weekends are usually only for her enjoyment- save for the occassional quick site inspections during her interior design side job. Aside from that, the girl's weekends usually consists of her lazing around or creating new designs at her apartment the whole first half of the day, and ending it by hanging at Club Seventeen.

relationship —
If you base it off of personality alone (or zodiacs if you're into that), then you wouldn't really think that these conflicting personalities would've even worked- but they somehow did. Of course at first, it wasn't all well- what with their age difference and again, personality. But there's something about being in a foreign land and being one of the only people you know who speaks the same language comfortably, that can bring two people together.
[first meeting] Qian and Jun officially met at Club Seventeen, when the two of them locked eyes as the female entered the room while the younger was preparing for his stint on stage. There was a spark- but more so of the feeling you get when you're caught "in the moment" of things. Qian was feeling great after finishing a project and Jun finally got a job he could be good at which pays well. Not to mention the music or other people played a part in this rather magnetic scene. It didn't last long however, since Qian had to go back to the VIP Booths (as usual) and Jun's stint was short since he was new. Though it did leave quite an impression.
[there after] Days after that night, every time Qian would enter Club Seventeen, her eyes would unconsciously wander and search for the male she'd locked eyes with. And every time, they'd give each other a small knowing smile before getting back to their business. This little playful thing lasted for about a month before Qian got tired and made the mvoe herself. Of course she wouldn't go head on without a background check- though she didn't exactly learn much about him because not much was provided by Yeojin. Though him being Chinese was enough to give the girl an extra boost in confidence. They hit it off quite well after Qian's move. Jun would meet up with Qian at the VIP Booth when he's free or wasn't called for, and would just talk comfortably. Qian would mostly do the talking of course while Jun would listen and share his own input on things, maybe a bit here and there- which the older female could never get used to.
Though of course, talking about yourself can get pretty tiring and sometimes even unfair, especially for Qian since she knows little to nothing about the younger chinese male before her. She doesn't want to pry but whenever she does ask about his background and how he ended up in the country, he'd merely say that he was "reflecting" or "trying to be a better person". Which confuses the female more cause- he's in a strip club? Sure that's stereotypical and kinda rude of her to think but, she just gets so frustrated with him sometimes. Add the fact that they never really meet outside of Club Seventeen, which she brought up as well but Jun would just brush it off or change the subject all together.
However, after some time of "secretly" meeting up by the VIP Booths, the two somehow (slowly for that matter) moves their relationship to another level. Although it may not seem much, but after feeling that Qian's starting to get really uneasy not being able to connect with him like any normal relationship should (be it a dating relationship or friendship) he's decided to finally meet up with her outside their usual place. Because of that, the two can finally do "normal stuff" together like eat out at nice restaurants or at street tents. Qian would take Jun to places he hasn't been to around the city and Jun would sometimes bring the female to where he works as a piano tutor and wushu instructor. They'd go to little unofficial "dates" and just talk about their day. Of course it's not all rainbows and sunshine for the two either. Sometimes schedules just won't meet last minute and they'd get frustrated over the other even if they know that no one really has any power of such events. There are also issues with jealousy when Jun would be called into a private room- something Qian used to be okay with but now isn't. And how the male would more or less stalk the older's social media accounts to make sure that there isn't anything about her and another male- he's actually quite possessive what he thinks is "his". Though really, these two doesn't have the right to get mad at each other because well technically, they've never really made their relationhip clear to anyone or each other.
[surprise] Now about a year of " freindship" and "unofficial dates" Qian was about to give Jun an ultimatim, either they finally label what they are and he actually decides to open up about himself or they just forget whatever's happened with them from when they met till that point. However the plan was pushed back (or scratched all together) when a surprise came knocking down the female's door. Ong Meixin, Qian's sister-in-law surprises her friend by coming all the way to South Korea to announce that the elders are starting to make a move regarding Qian's engagement to Zhou Mi. Although it hadn't been formally reported, there news circulating of the two family's coming together through the wedding. This frustrates and worries Qian altogether but what's got her curious is why her friend had to fly all the way to where she was for just that. "I'm throwing you an unofficial bachelorette party, silly! And here else but at the hottest new and secretive Club Seventeen! Oh Q, I'm sure you've heard of that place already!"
Qian couldn't be more conflicted in her life. Qian couldn't really stop Meixin and their friends from coming to Club Seventeen so she had called Yeojin and asked if she could arrange everything for her. Of course the lady boss was dumbfounded by the whole thing, especially since she knows of the relationship her friend has with Jun. Later at the club, Qian is evidently uneasy- for a lot of reasons. One, she knows that Yeojin would later bombard her with questions she can't avoid; two, she can feel the questioning stares and confusion with the rest of the club seventeen members and staff; three, Jun was nowhere to be found. The bachelorette party went well, mostly because the Club Seventeen members were all professionals and put aside their emotions to the side. Meixin and the rest of Qian's friends were able to return home safely but Qian- she knew she had to drag herself back to the club if she wanted to end things quick.
Once she was back in Club Seventeen, everything was how it was once closing time nears. The atmosphere should've been calm but only tension, questions, and a tinge of betayal could be felt. Qian decides to talk to Yeojin first before anyone else but the later chose to let everyone else hear it as well. The female then explains that she wasn't supposed to be engaged- not yet at least, not until things were clear with her family back at home. Though it seems that she wasn't included in anything (again) and that the marriage plans were actually decided on without her knowledge or consent. This somehow brought clearance in the air but there was still something left to explain. "What about Jun?"
[promise] Still in the club A few weeks has passed and Qian couldn't bring herself to return to Club Seventeen. It somehow helped that she had a week's time with her friends but after they've returned to Taiwan, she was left with the same thought that's been haunting her since the bachelorette party. What about Jun? The two haven't really spoken to each other either. Qian figured that he's heard from his friends already and that he didn't want to do anything with her anymore, which she wouldn't be surprised of. At some point, the female even thought that things might even be better that way, Jun and her not talking but- it didn't feel right to her that they didn't even give each other some kind of closure. Qian was getting frustrated again and was about to drop everything when her door bell rang- multiple times. "Alright, I'm coming!" She shouted from her room and quickly went towards her apartmnet's front door, only to see Jun in the monitor. He looked well, save for the fact that he seemed determined to break down her door if she didn't open it soon. With a nervous breath, Qian let the male in and that's when things started to take a turn.
The tension rose as Jun let himself in before closing the door behind him. Qian didn't exactly feel comfortable in that moment but it felt nice seeing the younger again after a while. They moved towards the living room but didn't do much after and the silence was growing thick. Qian cleared to speak but she was beat to it. "Don't marry him." The words caught the female off guard and she wasn't sure if she heard him right. When she didn't give a response, Jun repeated the exact same words, only in a more sincere manner. When there still was no response, he stood up and slowly walked around out of frustration. Qian just sat there, looking down at her hands, not really sure what to say. She had no power over the elder's decision, so although she didn't want to go through with the marriage either, there's nothing she could do about it. "Then wait for me." The female looked up at the sudden words, only to see Jun kneeling down in front of her. Their eyes locked and in that moment, it felt as if the two had been taken back to the first time they'd meet. The spark was there but feelings have grown, and only silence envelope the two once more. Jun then slowly reached from his pocket and took out a simple ring. He then took Qian's hand and inserted the gold band on her ring finger. "I promise to work things out, so please wait for me."

comments + questions —
- Sooooo I made a stupid move and deleted my original app while trying to figure out how to make it (pretty and aesthetic)-- so in the end, I'm back to square one and am trying to salvage what I've actually accomplished. But yeah, it's not going to be as good as how I did it BEFORE ACCIDENTALLY DELETING T^T Hopefully it's good enough for you tho :c
[update] wow this turned out longer than my first app hahahaha I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND :c
- Okay, I just wanted to say that the whole theme or idea of the story just got me curious and in the end- hooked about everything. I mean, I didn't expect to find anything like this in aff. Maybe there are but it's rare, esp for an applyfic.
- Oh and that pw- I seriously searched for strip songs hahahahaha luckily I found the *perfect* one- at least, that's how I feel lol It even has its own dance routine so, it can help you visualize everything HAHAHA Btw, since it's been quite long since I actually got inspired to start this app (and since the original one got deleted T^T), I kinda mixed the remaining idea in my head with what you like to see in apps, which is why Qian may somehow seem like a mess-- though I do hope she's alright for you!!
- So to clarify, no Jun didn't tell Qian that he was actually one of the candidates to marry her but he screwed up and now their love story is in a brink. I dunno, I felt like it would be nice to frustrate to readers somehow lol But it's entirely up to you if you want him to tell her! And I left the ending to you because I'm really fine if this ends up with them together or not. Cause you know, it'd actually be really hard for Jun to rise up again against Zhoumi's cleaner records. But yeah, we can only hope.
- Also, I hope you don't mind that I made my Qian and Yeojin have an interior designer - client kind of relationship at first that later turns into a friendship. I just tried to incorporate as much as I can (of what you'd probably like and how I saw my character at the beginning of conceptualizing for the story)
- Oh and there are linked words around in the app that leads to picture to give you a better idea of what I was going for. Words are: Soft-ball with a mini knife, Seungcheol perform, loft-type one bedroom apartment, and simple ring.
scene request —
- I've got some scenes all around my app but most are in the background, family/friends relationships, and love interest relationship. It'd be nice if you could do one of those too! PS: The bachelorette party is there too~
- When for one reason or another, Qian and Jun ends up drinking together and oddly enough, Jun gets drunk first. Qian doesn't really want to leave the younger behind and she doesn't really know anyone at the club personally at that time (everyone she knows are either on leave or no where to be found) so she decides to take him home- no problem with that. While in her apartment, Qian finds herself lending Jun her bed- a place she doesn't let anyone go near to, and just contemplates how she ended up looking at the peaceful Jun on her bed as she tucks away the stray hair on his face.
- Maybe an inspection(?) scare but it turns out that they're just some hired people/guards trying to look for Qian or some other *important* person in the club. They were tipped off from the outside that they'd find their target there so that's why they entered all tough and suspiscious.
- When Qian's 2nd older brother comes visit Qian after his wife does, after hearing from her that there was something off about the female. He wanted to surprise her but is instead surprised over what he's learned. He was stalking his little sister, something he usually does before pouncing on her and she's usually punch his arm- but instead, he suddenly get grabbed by the arm and pushed hard on a wall by an unfamiliar male. He looked young and was actually pretty familiar. "Who are you and why are you following Qian?" An accent? Lijie thought before trying something out- "Who are you?" He spoke in Mandarin and this flustered the younger male which then gave him the chance to switch positions. He pinned down the younger male and took a good look at him. A few seconds later or struggling it finally hit the older male. "It's you- isn't? That kid at the hotel?" Apprently, Lijie and Meixin were in the same place as Jun, but left about an hour after the younger male arrived on the scene. Let's just say that the younger had a silent reputation wherein if he'd show up, something was bound to happen good or bad, and Lijie wasn't having it at that time. He found it funny, having found one of their business partners in this foreign country but something suddenly clicked. "How do you know my sister?"
In the end, Lijie was very persuasive and was able to get everything out from Jun. Of all people, he wouldn't have thought that his little sister was going to fall for the Wen's kid. But of course, it's Qian he's talking about- nothing is ever predictable when it comes to her. So after collecting that information, Lijie is left with a decision- how can he and Chaocheng get to convince their father of their dearest little sister's predicament?
[Of course Lijie is going to tell his older brother, that's what he does. And of course, although Chaocheng isn't going to admit it, he's already gone soft on Qian. So now, being the older brother that they are, they'll have to decide how they're going to help their little sister's love life and potential marital future.]
^^^^ I added this scene just in case you needed a loophole of how Jun might've done something to overcome the "wall" that is Zhoumi. Oh and yes, Jun was secretly stalking Qian too after the bachelorette party lol He was also there btw, just hiding since he knew some of Qian's friends and didn't want to be seen in the Club.
password — I honestly couldn't choose with these boys so- luckily I was able to find a pic with all three of them! <3
