gook minjin'S PROFILE
personal introduction "hello, it is I, Eira, the monarch of November."
additional talents
piano, she wants to go study piano at conservatory when she's allowed to
writing, her writings are her way to pour out the emotions she can't show, her writing is beautiful, graceful and artistic. She currently only writes stories, but she could also use these skills for lyrics after some training
ideal type "a warm person. I'm winter, I'd like to be with someone who's like summer. It would be interesting to see what chemistry we have."
official height & weight 159 cm & 43 kg
fanclub snowdrops, her flower is a snowdrop, and she just thinks it's a cute and beautiful name for her fans
popular ships write their ships in order of popularity (most to least popular) and, if you like, you can include an explanation (which would be really helpful, especially in the event one or more of these ships are with idols from other groups / solo artists)! you can also include their opinion on the ships that would be great too uwu
1. Minjin & Haruki - she openly says her ideal type is someone who's like summer, and who else is more like summer than Haruki? We all know both would be shy about this ship, especially Haruki is a lil mess now. They're also both just so smol
2. Minjin & Chanwoo - they've acted together in #WYD, Minjin was Chanwoo's girl, and the ship is still thriving since they're often seen together (and Chanwoo is also a summer pup!). At first, this ship will be the most popular but soon enough, Minjin & Haruki will take over
3. Minjin & Meloji - the usually popular leader-maknae ship. Minjin doesn't mind cause she will end up taking a liking to mamaloji
4. Minjin & Junsu - tallest + smallest, and both are calm and reserved.
5. Minjin & Ilona - another that's kind of sister-like just like minjin+meloji, but this one is less popular than that one.
initial thoughts/opinion they have both been singing under yg so they already kind of knew each other despite not being close at all. when minjin noticed that yujin was with her in the group, she felt a strange sense of security. She would be protected.
relationship they're like positive? But no friends yet? Minjin's only friend in empire will be minjae at debut, but meloji will probably be one of the first that she feels safe to show a bit of herself to
on-camera they show more interactions on camera since minjin tries to be less... frosty. So she goes to the members she likes to actually try to show that she's not the asocial android she is.

initial thoughts/opinion who is this bad guy and why is he here
relationship minjin still doesn't like him. they barely talk, the first time they talked, nero straight up flirted with her and since then minjin has just seen him as dirt. nero will have to put in lots of effort to ever get minjin on his side, no matter how chill of a dude he actually is. minjin doesn't change her judgement about bad boys fast. she sees him as threat to minjae as well. Avoid at all costs.
on-camera still, avoid at all costs. Minjin only interacts with him when she really has to

initial thoughts/opinion he seemed fine, she just hoped he wouldn't become a , cause his face seems y to her
relationship yeah he's a . jk but seriously, minjin is always judging this guy. he's too stubborn and feisty to her liking. Most of their interactions are staring contests.
on-camera on camera, minjin is at least friendly to him
triviA
tba
initial thoughts/opinion wow, she's pretty
relationship these two really have their ups and downs. minjin can see that bitna means good, but she can also really piss the lil baby off. a lot of judgement usually goes bitna's way but she'll probably be one of the earlier friends for minjin since she can be very patient and a good listener. probably because minjae will befriend her
on-camera not really, they tend to be friendly but sometimes minjin can't help but still judge
triviA
tba
initial thoughts/opinion she's a hard worker but minjin was sure she wouldn't get along with her
relationship minjin really thought this relationship would not work, but it's actually going surprisingly well. Well of course they're not friends, but at least they're positive.
on-camera they're friendly with each other

tba
initial thoughts/opinion why is this creature so loud
relationship negative on minjin's side, definitely. She really doesn't like Jooyeon and how loud and snarky she is. Can't she like shut up for once and let everyone else be? Minjin simply refuses to talk to Jooyeon, and so does minjae. One thing minjin loves, showing her own hidden sass, is just ignoring jooyeon and staring at her until she gets pissed and gives up.
on-camera just like damian, only interactions when really necessary

any additional tidbits i need to know or you want to share? list them here and format as you please!
initial thoughts/opinion he's huge.
relationship junsu and minjin are both very reserved people, but that somehow makes them think more positively of each other. Minjin likes being around Junsu because he just has the calm aura minjin likes. They're bound to become friends. junsu will also probably be early in minjin's befriending line. Two minuses make a plus.
on-camera since both are reserved, there aren't many really open interactions but more the 'secret' type, like when they're just standing together in the back or giving each other the look of 'why are we doing this'

initial thoughts/opinion get your good looking face outta here
relationship minjin judged him by his face at first, thinking he was a flirt like damian (ugh we dun like him in this house), but she was proven wrong. He's also one that minjin is fine spending time with, but they're even more awkward than minjin & junsu.
on-camera interactions? what's that?

initial thoughts/opinion cute???
relationship they don't talk much at all, but minjin secretly cares about yide, but she just doesn't really show it yet. Yide is self-destructive and negative, and that triggers the mother in minjin. She reminds minjin of minjae but toned down and that's why she cares
on-camera minjin is sometimes by yide's side, even though they don't always talk

initial thoughts/opinion "Minjae, I have encountered a cute creature."
relationship these two are the literal CUTEST especially after minjin decides to start mothering haru. Haru has an obvious crush on Minjin, it can't escape even minjae's eyes. He's shy in front of her (and minjae) and minjin at first will find it endearing but not really give him anything cause she's still liking chanwoo at that moment, but after spending time together, haru will become the first one she opens up to, and they'll grow closer and closer until hopefully they can be cute puppy lovers. Also, why does haru always seem to walk in when Minjin's doing something she would normally not do in front of others?
on-camera haru is afraid to mess up so he tends to try to avoid minjin, but they're always surprisingly close to each other and stealing glances whenever they can. cue the youtube compilations of their shipping moments

initial thoughts/opinion her brother, her sunshine, her everything. the sun who's caught in an eternal eclipse. for now.
relationship while he's technically the older twin, Minjin is the more mature twin. Minjae used to be happy, but naive and vulnerable, now he's just a broken man. He's a ghost of himself, and the only one that can make him smile for now is Minjin, because the wound is still very fresh. He joined YG to be with his sister, and to continue working on his dreams that he thought were destroyed. While minjae is still very cold and untrusting towards anyone that is not Gook Minjin, he is showing improvement. Minjin would do anything for her brother and protects him as much as she can. She just wants him to smile again.
on-camera they're together 90% of the times, minjin often talks for minjae, if she even says a word. There have been broadcasts of shows where the only person Minjae has talked to is Minjin.
triviA
they're twins, Minjae is 6 minutes older
eira'S interview
how do you feel about empire?
> Empire? It is a group of people that I like.
why is your stagename Eira?
> My brother and I wanted stagenames that were matching and also related to snow. Eira is the Welsh word for snow. I thought the name was quite exquisite.
you formerly made some cameos in other yg artists' songs. how do you feel about that, debuting in an idol group?
> It was worth the wait. My brother accompanies me now.
outside of your main subunits, which member or members of empire would you like to collaborate with, and why?
> Minjae. Oh and Haruki- Uhh... He-... He seems like- IS a nice person-
which male member and which female member are you closest to?
> Of course Minjae. For the females, I don't know.
if you could collaborate with members of e2w and c2c, which members would you choose and why?
> Jen. I don't really know why. I feel like our visual vibes are compatible.
outside of your reveal, would you like to pursue solo promotions?
> Whatever.
thank you for your time, Eira. do you have anything else to say?
> Not really. Thank you.
gook minjin, behind the scenes
display name/names in the group chat
by herself: Minjin
by Minjae: sis (but later on, little flower)
by Haru: little snowflake (is this okay, ??)
by the others: small frost baby / Elsa
dp/dps in the group chat she doesn't take selfies so this official picture that she's actually really fond of. it probably won't change.
members they'd rather room with they openly express their desire to room together (damn you min) but minjin would be fine with any girl that's not Jooyeon or Bitna, she doesn't want vulgar people in her clean, pure room
members they'd rather not room with Jooyeon and Bitna. And Nero. She doesn't even want to dorm with him.
preferred chores cleaning with minjae, she knows it makes him feel at ease so she does it with him
chores they'd rather not touch anything Jooyeon related
dorm life minjin surprisingly doesn't hide away. She and minjae can often just be found in the common areas so they can observe the others. When they are not there, they're usually huddled away in a corner in one of their rooms to have chats that can be deep or light-hearted, or secretly play mobile games together and grin when they fail. Also, if you don't know where they are and need them, just stay near their kittens, they spend lots of time with their kittens and those are moments you don't want to miss. When playing with their kittens, minjae and minjin often unconciously show their brighter sides to the others.
birthdays, holidays, all the days! she often tries to just ghost the others during her birthday cause she doesn't want attention from the others, but she's actually a holiday freak. She doesn't express it, but loves holidays and loves decorating the dorm and buying presents for everyone. It's easy to forget the frost babies' birthdays cause its on boxing day, but minjin always makes sure that everyone has something for minjae to then just ghost her own birthday.
the members can suggest any songs for their warmup songs. what song or songs does minjin suggest? iKON's dumb & dumber and b-day, but that's risky cause she always wants to go crazy on those songs, and she can't show the crazy to the others.
cereal before milk, or milk before cereal? the frost babies pour cereal before milk, but are still strangelings.
haru, jason, or damian? Haru, I mean, does this need an explanation? Haru is the only liked person of these three.
idol relationships, past present and future iKON! Maybe some Oh my girl members in the future when she has opened up more.
