nicknames
— Dumb//dumdum : Dylan gives off the feeling of being dumb, he has the image of being dumb, so people sometimes call him this. Areum always refers to him as or dumb . It used to hurt Dylan but now he couldn't care less. For reasons.
— energy bomb : Dylan has lots of energy, he's probably the most energetic of the group. His energy is very explosive and endless, so that's how he earned the nickname of energy bomb.
— Fake maknae (2) : Yeah Joohwan's also a fake maknae, but that's more related to looks. Dylan can just act like a real baby, and he tends to be babied too. His energetic, happy personality is just so precious and he radiates childlike innocence, despite not looking the way at all, until he smiles and melts hearts.
— Dan : Dylan isn't a name that you can easily shorten to call the person, but his childhood friends found a way, by erasing the 'YL' and calling him Dan. Some people think he's called Daniel when they hear people calling him Dan, though.
— Emperor of dance : Dylan is already quite known in Korea, solely for showing off his amazing dance skills on shows. He is an amazing dancer, people are crying for him to find a company and debut. He is viewed as one of the strongest dancers in kpop, the chance is big that he's in fact stronger than anyone else.
— Leader of the cat army : Dylan is defnitely the crazy cat lady of the group. he currently has four cats, and would definitely not say no to expanding. Others jokingly call his cats the cat army, and he is the leader, even though Kuro is the one who gives out the orders.

appearance What stands out about Dylan at first are his heavy build and bleach blonde hair. He was always on the heavier side, having broader shoulders than the others, but because his dancing is so intense, he needs the necessary muscles to keep up. He's not chubby, just broad and muscled. He has kept his hair bleached blonde ever since he made his first appearance in Korea. He is often deemed a visual hole, until he shows his smile. His smile is his biggest charming point, it's cute, it's soft, it's innocent, it melts hearts. People either love him for his dancing or for his adorableness, but never for his visuals. He also has a tattoo on his forearm.
fashion style Dylan's not really confident in his looks, because he lost so much opportunities because of his face. So he tries to not stand out as much as possible, wearing neutral, simple clothes and trying to blend in with the public as much as possible. Too bad he's really fond of his blonde hair. Because his hair is so bright and contrasts his clothing style so much, he's still easily found in the public.

personality
"Dancing won't get you anywhere if you don't have the looks."
social and cheerful: Dylan is a ball of joy. He loves making new friends, just chatting away or having fun. He's a real chatterbox who tries to keep on smiling all the time. He radiates this sunny energy, which is precious and childlike. He just seems so innocent and also dumb because he's always so happy, seemingly not having a care in the world. He befriends people easily, but that also makes it easier to keep on his facade, and even manipulate them if he needs to do that, even if he doesn't like it.
Intelligent and patient: almost everyone is mistaken in their judgement about Dylan. As said before, he seems dumb because of his energy and innocence, but he is actually very clever and a top student. He used to be offended or sad when someone told him, but he is now using it as weapon. He has even fooled Areum with his confusing image, and he has noticed that it gives him an advantage against her. She pays less atention to him since she thinks he's too dumb to try anything against her, and it also makes her target him less. He sometimes feels sorry for the others cause he kinda slips through the cracks and they don't, but it's for the better, and in such situations, Dylan would always put himself first. He's also very patient, he is able to keep up his facade even though it really annoys the out of him, because he knows that it will be advantageous. He's waiting like a predator in the bushes, waiting for the exact moment when he can attack Areum and bring her down. His patience with other people is incredible, he rarely lashes out at people that annoy him.
Energetic, prideful and competitive: Dylan has lots of energy, way too much energy for his own good. He has to get rid of it in a way, and that's how he started dancing. He is always dancing and jumping and yelling, making him seem childlike and dumb (again lol). He loves wearing himself out, but he also loves to compete against others. He's a very competitive spirit who always wants to win and is very prideful about it. When he loses even in the smallest thing, his pride will be harmed and he feels bad about it, but when he wins, he's just beaming, walking with his chest out, loving life and extremely proud of himself. Sometimes people let him win on purpose because he is really cute when he's proud of himself (people just love that bright smile, ya know).
Insensitive: Dylan is ashamed about this himself, but he can come over as quite insensitive. It is partly his intelligence. When he doesn't see what the problem is, or deems the problem stupid, he won't feel any empathy, or just a bit when it's about someone he really likes. He then just says 'why don't you just...', which doesn't help more often than not, but sometimes, just sometimes, he is able to solve the problem with his logical, unbiased reasoning. But yeah he really does need to be a bit more sensitive and Dylan knows that about himself, but he doesn't want to act or lie, so he tends to just excuse himself and stay out of other people's problems. But if he really feels like it's a problem, he'll immediately emerge in it and try to solve it asap.
Insecure and anxious: Dylan has actually grown into quite the insecure little boy. He has lost many chances for debuting because of his looks, despite being like probably the best dancer in kpop. He really started to think: 'do I look that bad?'. It made him so anxious that he starts to even have problems looking into a mirror. When something goes bad, he'll always be very panicky about it. He's worried about his plan as well, and that's why he's extra patient and careful about it.
Clumsy and disorganised: Dylan can't just do anything without something going wrong. And well, you know already that when something goes wrong, he'll start to get into a panic. People really have to watch him so that nothing happens. He's not only very clumsy, but also disorganised. He leaves his belongings just lying around everywhere. He doesn't know how to be neat, and doesn't want to be either. He just hates to clean.
background Dylan was born in Canada from a Japanese family which had some Korean blood in it as well. Yeah, Dylan had lots of international stuff going on from the day he was born. he was a happy and smart kid who grew up perfectly bilingual, speaking both English and Japanese. He was also very energetic, too energetic, so his parents asked him to choose a club that he wanted to join, expecting soccer or maybe volleyball. Against all of their expectations, he said dance, so when he was in elementary school, they put him into the dance club where he was able to flourish.
Dancing was pretty much the only thing Dylan needed in life. It has remained that way. He'd be fine with doing anything, as long as he could dance. He is a very good dancer too, and his teachers and parents really did push him to go pro. Dylan was originally going to go pro, until he discovered kpop. His favourite group were SM's queens, Empath. His bias? Areum. She was so pretty and seemed so sweet. He wanted to follow into Empath's footsteps and become kpop idol. But it didn't prove as easy as it sometimes seems, especially for him, because he was foreign and didn't have the looks with him as well. (well I think he's super good looking and adorable but yeah he is definitely not like your standard kpop boi) He did end up finding a company and he started kpop training under Cube in 2011. His first appearance on TV was in 2014, when he joined the second season of dancing 9. He expected to get more chances if he made a stir. He did make a stir, but still, Cube didn't debut him, and instead of giving him more chances, they decided to just get rid of him in 2015. Dylan went back to dancing, renting studios and joining dance crews occasionally. He was known as a good dancer, but he didn't get chances, and the excuse was his looks. Until Boys24 came.
Dylan didn't make it in Boys24, but he again caused a small stir for his dancing, yet no opportunities came. When Produce 101 season 2 was announced, he decided to join yet again despite knowing how bad mnet actually is. He joined the show as individual trainee, and got actually further than he had expected, ending at #33. He got votes mainly for his skills, being part of A class and one of the best (if not the best) performers throughout the whole show, and he had a few fans who actually thought he was goodlooking and adorable, but yet again, it wasn't enough. Fans cried for a company to hit him up, but no one did. Again, for his looks. During the show, he got quite close with the dance mentor, Sea from Empath. He was so happy to have befriended someone of his favourite group, but whenever he talked about his favourite, Areum, he noticed how her face changed, no matter how much Sea tried to hide it. Dylan notices such things cause he's so intelligent, and he sensed that something fishy was going on with Areum and Empath. But when Areum approached him randomly, scouting him for her company, he forgot about it all, getting so excited that he finally had a chance to debut, and dance, dance and dance. He went to Sea to talk about the news without Areum knowing, and when he told her with the proudest smile on his face that he had joined Areum's company, her face completely changed. At that moment Dylan realised that he might have made the wrong decision.
Dylan kept visiting Sea in secret, and after lots of whining and questioning from Dylan, Sea started spilling the tea, one drop at a time. And then she introduced him to Jena. At that moment, Dylan's heart shattered, and he really grew a hatred for Areum. After seeing Jena in such a bad state and also seeing what Areum's doing to him and his groupmates, Dylan became determined to take her down. Working together with Sea, Dylan has a plan, it is very risky, so he has to wait for the right moment, but for now, he just plays dumb so Areum cares about him less and doesn't see him as threat anymore. He's lurking in the shadows, waiting to attack and take down the unsuspecting final boss.

relations
— best friend : Kim Yeonjin (26) / dance mentor / you know him better than I do / 90%
Dylan is the only one that has been able to get to Yeonjin so far. They were just connected immediately. Both foreigners who have been dancing for most of their life. Yeonjin knew about Dylan when he joined, and knew how good he was, so he has never really seen him as pupil, but more as his equal, and that's how they were able to become besties quite quickly. When they have time, they sometimes just dance and come up with choreographies together, just for fun. They share the same passion, and that's how they found each other.
— big sister and mentor : Lee Yejeum/Sea (28) / member of empath / you know her better than I do / 90%
Sea was dance mentor on produce 101 season 2, while Dylan was probably the best dancer of the show, so they naturally grew close and reached past mentor-pupil level quite soon. When Dylan announced that he was scouted by Areum, Sea got concerned, and she has slowly started entrusting him with secrets of what Areum did, thinking that he might be useful to start a plan of taking her down. If that ever happens, they'll probably be working together. They've grown this close that Dylan has started to see Sea as big sister. They're carefully crafting their 'ruin Areum' mission together.
— the silly one : Ong Seongwoo (23) / actor?? we don't really know rn / silly, hard-working, childish / 80%
Being both all-rounders that are mainly dancers, and also the same age on produce, these two quickly grew close, and Seongwoo and Dylan were definitely each other's closest friend on the show. Their fans loved the interactions, but it didn't save Dylan when it was time to do duo votes cause the fans all shipped Ongniel.
— the new kid : Kassy Cheung (23) / member of Empath / you know her better than I do / 70%
Kassy was a nice addition to Empath. Dylan got to know her when he visited Sea and Jena once. He likes her, and she likes him. Well not in the romantic way of course, but as friends. They have lots of fun together and Kassy is really a source of warmth in Dylan's cold life. She makes him forget about the worries, even if it's for just a second. Those seconds are important.
— satan : Lee Areum (28) / ceo / you know her better than I do / -200%
Dylan at first loved Areum, she was his bias in his favourite group and all, and was one of those who believed her instead of sm. Until he actually joined her company and noticed how bad she was, and then he met Jena and his hatred for her grew even bigger. He hates her with a passion and is ready to endure anything just to wait for the right moment to take her down, even though he sometimes just wants to punch that plastic face of her and ruin all of it.

training years
4 years with Cube, after that he like floated in between dance crews and survival shows but never really had a company after Cube until Areum approached him.
training background Dylan was treated well at Cube, but it wasn't good enough. They didn't take advantage of his spark of popularity after dancing 9, and got rid of him instead. Afterwards, he couldn't find a company for two years, and filled those two years with survival shows. First the flopping Boys24 where he got eliminated early, then produce 101 season 2, where he got noticed, and got quite far. It was hard on him as foreigner who has to purely rely on his skills, but produce brought him new friends, new fame and the opportunity offered by Areum. He was a talented all-rounder, and known to be a fan of empath, so Areum thought he was the perfect target. Dylan was thinking of going back to canada without saying anything and giving up on his idol dream after areum's abuse started, but then he met Jena, and seeing her made him change his mind. He's enduring all the abuse even though it is so hard for him, all for Jena, all for revenge for her.
predebut experiences
— Dancing 9 season 2 (instead of Park Insoo), was on the winning team
— Boys24, was eliminated with Unit blue
— Produce 101 season 2, got the votes for his skills, but stranded in the top 35 as #33
scandals
idk he would probably have no scandals except if he decides to start facing off against Areum. Jena dating rumors would be impossible since she's so hidden away, but dating rumors with Sea or Kassy would be possible?
news articles
— Dancing 9 winner Dylan Murakami rumored to have left Cube
— Former Cube trainee and Dancing 9 winner Dylan Murakami to participate in Boys24
— Dylan Murakami rumored to be joining Produce 101 season #2
— 'Emperor of dance' Dylan Murakami to finally make his official debut with Midn9te
(optional):
— Midn9te's Dylan Murakami and Empath's Sea publish shocking video, exposing former Empath member Areum's abuse towards Hwang Jena and Midn9te, netizens show mixed reactions. (there would definitely be netizens that wouldn't believe Dylan and Sea, cause yeah they love their queen)
future experiences
— a solo? Since he's an all-rounder? Idk what a good solo would be though... he could also go do something in Japan to promote Midn9te there.
< history >
when lee areum approached him... He was blinded by excitement, forgetting about the suspicions he had after befriending Sea. He was asked by his former bias to join her company. He was guaranteed to debut. He would be able to dance, dance, and dance more. After 6 years of struggling on his own, he could at least struggle together with others... and that ended up becoming quite literal. Areum approached him the day after his elimination aired on TV, while he was getting out of the dance studio he was renting, late at night. She had waited there for hours, apparently.
the private audition Dylan was very excited, but also very confused as to why there were only a few trainees, it was like they were handpicked by Areum to just debut together, and that's what actually turned out to be true. He performed Exile's New horizon at the audition. It might be japanese but it was the best way to show both his vocals and dancing. Kpop dances were just not challenging enough for him for auditions. He also always kept that song for auditions because it makes him think of a new beginning and hope.
the other eight They were great! Dylan was very impressed, but he was happy that no one could beat him in dancing. He supported them all and cheered for them happily
only having one another
Cherry bomb: Dylan feels bad for him, since he's like the leader and absorbs lots of the damage. They're also same aged, so Sung Won and Dylan are quite close.
Roar: Oh god, this boy has to really calm down and wait for the right moment! Dylan always tries to make him shut the hell up. Yeah, he understands, he wants to stand up as well, but not now. Dylan knows that it is not a good idea so he contains himself and waits. Roar should do the same. They sometimes actually fight themselves, but never physical.
Grrr: Dylan simply loves grrr and his little plans to make the bad guys' lives terrible. Dylan sometimes helps him out, gets him out of danger, but also stops him when the little plan he has is too risky. He also believes that grrr would greatly help him and Sea out to take down Areum on the long run. Maybe he could install hidden cameras to film footage, or something.
Limitless: Dylan was almost like this guy, also believing and loving Areum at first. But he got snapped out of it by Sea and his own intelligence. He tries to help, but will end up kind of giving up on him? Limitless is unsaveable, really.
Runaway: My god, Dylan can really get pissed at this guy. He could ruin everything for the rest of the group, so he always tried to keep his distance and make sure to not reveal anything of his plan or friendship with Sea, Jena and Kassy to him, because he knows Runaway will accidentally let Areum or one of her minions know. Dylan knows that he can't do anything about it, but he has decided to just stay away, because it is better in the long run. They'd probably become good friends afterwards.
Chain: Chain tries to hide his feelings very well, but Dylan can read people very well (like what happened with Sea when he talked about Areum), so he can see that something's going on. He doesn't ask, but offers Chain a shoulder to cry on behind closed doors, comfort and warmth. He's there for Chain at all times and he's probably the only one together with Shine and Whiplash that Dylan would absorb damage for. If they're in trouble, he'll step in so they're safe.
Shine: Shine is the spark of hope for everyone. His smile is just so healing, while Shine also often says that about Dylan himself. As said before, Shine is one of the three kids Dylan would take a hit for. Shine can't be tainted, he can't lose that smile, so Dylan makes sure to protect him and appreciate him for being such a good and happy person. He also wants to introduce Shine to Jena, because his smile might also bring a smile on her face.
Whiplash: Whiplash is hiding something, and Dylan knows it. It really makes him feel uneasy in his heart because he really wants to know why, what and how. Whiplash seems broken, and Dylan wants to protect and fix him. He really feels bad for the guy.
thoughts on rebirth Dylan really hates the situation and really wants to get out. But he's staying there because he wants to get his revenge for Jena and for the rest of the members. He is happy that he can dance, but he would rather take down Areum on the way. He endures it all, acts dumb so she targets him less, but also tries to help the others out when it isn't too risky for himself. He's like 75% himself first, 25% gotta protecc the babies.
< CONVERSATION with the ceo >
hello, dylan. please, sit down. "hello, miss! Thank you for having me," he gave her a polite smile with a touch of nervousness in it before sitting down in a very tensed up and straight manner.
i'm sure you're wondering about the boys who also auditioned. He immediately nodded before his lips curled into a bright smile, "Yes! Yes! They all seem very good! I've seen some of the boys before, and I'm really curious to learn more about them and their histories in the kpop world!"
don't worry. you're still going to debut. i want to debut a boy group, a nine-membered one. how does that make you feel? you can be honest. His face got even brighter, it was like he was beaming as he almost jumped out of his chair, leaning closer to her unconciously. "Really? Am I going to debut? Oh my god! Finally! I'm going to be able to dance! Thank you, miss! Thank you so much!" Dylan kept rambling, borderline freaking out.
do you have any concerns about the group? he didn't even answer properly, he was too excited at that moment, and only shook his head.
mmm. now, i have my reasons for selecting you to debut in midn9te – that's the name of the group. but what do you think you can share with the group? what makes you... special? "Me? Special? Well... They call me the emperor of dance? Are my dancing skills special enough? I'm not sure..." This answer from him was confusing, since it both seemed like a brag and him trying to stay humble as he muttered his lips, thinking of what actually did make him special. "Hmmm... my hair? My nationality?"
mmm, i see. now, do you have any areas you personally think you'll need improvement on? "My insensitivity," he answered, being completely honest, maybe too honest, "I don't feel and show any empathy towards others when I don't consider the problem they're having an actual problem. It might cause tension in the team."
well then, i'm sure our trainers and i will do our best to help with that. now, do you have any food allergies or health issues i need to know about? "First of all, I am terribly allergic to peanuts to the point that it would result in hospital visits, it might even be deadly for me... Luckily it never got that far," after the abuse, he'd realise that saying this might've been a bad idea since Areum could use it against him, but at that moment, he just wanted to make sure his safety was optimal, and didn't suspect much. "Also, I have two moments in the year that I literally always fall ill, at the beginning of october and the end of february. Every single time."
i see. well, thank you for coming to audition, i found your audition... enlightening. "Really? I'm so honored to hear that! I'm a big fan of you, you know..." he smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck out of embarassment.
i'd like you to sign your contract now, actually. the sooner you sign, the sooner you and the other boys can move into your dorm and start training – oh, don't look so surprised. i've prepared for this group since last year. "Really?? So I'm just debuting like that? That's so crazy! After all these years of struggling... Amazing..."
so, if you'll just sign here... he took the pen with a bright smile on his face before signing the page with a cleanly practiced idol-like sign. He was ready for that .
thank you, dylan. why don't you go with sangho? he'll take you to the van while i talk to the other boys. "No, thank YOU, miss! I hope to see you again soon! Well, if you'll excuse me..." He bowed quickly before hurrying out of the room, not being able to contain his excitement much longer.

nicknames
Dylan usually just calls her noona, sometimes 'nanoona', short for jena-noona, because she's older than him and they aren't that close yet.
personality you probably know her better than I do.
first meeting Dylan has first met Jena briefly back when he went to Empath fanmeets and concerts when she wasn't on hiatus yet. But yeah that isn't really concidered a meeting, right? Their actual first meeting was when Sea decided that it was a good thing to spill all the tea to Dylan. She entrusted him with the task to protect the rest of midn9te and to possibly take Areum down because he was smart and already knew stuff he didn't need to know just based on judging Sea's behavior. So after spilling some of the tea, Sea introduced Dylan to Jena. Jena had always been one of Dylan's favourites, but meeting her didn't make him excited. He knew that if Sea would introduce him to her, that she'd be a big part of the Areum abuse story, and it was true. Jena looked super pretty, and Dylan was stunned, but still looked terrible, skinny, empty and broken. Dylan's heart shattered on the spot, and then rage filled his mind, causing his blood to boil. He talked with Jena and Sea, and after the talk, Dylan was determined to not just ditch the others and go mia from the company, but actually stay there as some kind of undercover agent. He absolutely wanted to take Areum down for what she did to Jena and what she's doing to midn9te at that moment. Jena became his power engine to endure it all, without her realising.
development Development? Nahh. Ain't nobody got time for that.. The thing is: Dylan doesn't want to attempt stealing Jena's heart. At the beginning, he doesn't feel anything himself, but during his secret visits to Sea and her to share reports and just talk about the problems, attempting to help Jena stay on her feet, his heart starts to beat faster. He will slowly fall in love with the broken girl, but he'll be so focused on just trying to help her and the others and taking Areum down that he won't flirt or something at all. Jena herself doesn't even think about love, but maybe? After Areum gets taken down? Dylan just tries to make Jena feel better, taking baby steps. He simply feels so bad for her and feels like it's his duty to protect and take care of her, and to take revenge for her and midn9te. If it wasn't for her, he would've given up, ditched the company and gave up on his dream after a short time already.
interactions They will probably meet for the first time during the story (if it starts like at debut), and they will be kinda awkward acquaintances, but Dylan slowly but surely creeps into Jena's heart. He tries his very best to not be too much, and just befriend her at her pace. Whenever Jena needs support, Dylan will try to come by asap (but it's usually Sea who calls him) and comfort her. He shows her warmth, friendship, comfort and support, and of course a smile that heals. Jena won't care at first, but she'll become curious about Dylan in the future, and maybe he can help her slowly get her life together? If she allows it, of course. His presence is like a ray of sunshine in her dark life. Maybe the single ray can cause a whole sunrise in the far future.
status they probably don't even know each other yet at that time?
ideal ending maybe dating? it definitely is not needed, and I think that Dylan would only really dare to actually flirt with Jena after he took Areum down (and maybe then the story's ending lol)
relationship trivia
- Jena is just a teeny bit taller than Dylan
- Dylan really wants to talk to people about how pretty Jena is but he can't reveal that he knows her... yet
- Sea is literally the best wingwoman you could ever imagine
- Their shipname would probably be Jelan
- Dylan's main weapon to make Jena smile is videos and pictures of his cats, and often him pulling funny faces with his cats
- somehow the videos that Jena likes the most are videos from when Princess Valencia Do attacks Dylan
- there is nothing much to say cause there's literally nothing going on atm
