Style.

just like her hair, her style is always changing and she dresses accordingly to her mood. some days she might feel a little girl and wear a dress with a jean jacket, some days she might deck out in casual suit style and other days you'll find her running to 7/11 in hoodies and sweats. the majority of her clothes are black, gray, white, denim, and "borrowed" clothes from her members. she use to rely a lot on their stylist to help her look decent going out but she now dresses herself.

Relationships.

band member / go iseul / 28 / idol / down to earth, fun loving. & practical / these two got along well right away. they were the same age and iseul took haru's hand and guided her along her trainee life because in haru's eyes iseul was an expert and super talented. she looks up to iseul a lot because even though they are the same age iseul takes care of her like one of the youngster of the groups. she have always felt a little bad that she is not as mature and motherly like iseul to the other members and felt even worse when they lost their leader and a lot of drama hit the group.

band member / park hana / 23 / idol / calculated, intelligent, loyal / haru swears the first time she saw hana she choked on her water and was just in awe at her beauty. she found hana to be so precious because she was so much younger but so much more mature and smart compare to haru. they butted head just a little bit at first since haru is very loud and immature but eventually they've become sisters. even if haru cant give adult like advises to hana she always there to cheer hana up. haru was always proud of hana and how hard she works for the group's and she also felt bad because she sees the pressure the company puts on her.

bandmates / the only thing that comes to mind and if she is ever asked to say anything to her members is "I am thankful and i am'm sorry." since 2007 these were the only people in her life who stuck with her through all the netizen witch hunt during their scandals espcially the last one with yuri where a lot of things were blown out, happy wins and to late night tears in the studios. she is always thankful for them and yet feels sorry because she feels she does not contribute much to the group. so she works twice as hard, practice 100x more, and wishes they can place some of their hardship on her.

good friend and mentor / kwon jiyong / 31/ idol ( bigbang) / fatherly, silly, & warm hearted / she remembers leaving the company when bigbang was preparing to debut. she had always admire him for how cool and talented he was. jiyong look at her as a little sister and was protective and thought of her as someone who was precious and had a lot to show the world. he was sad to see her go but understood why. they two kept in contact even after haru left.

bff / kim heechul / 36 / super junior / spontanous, outspoken, caring / they two are known as bff, they have appear on so many variety shows together and they can honestly joke and call each other out on so many stupid things. they are loud and fight like brother and sisters. haru is thankful towards heechul for supporting and understanding her struggles in the variety show business. when they left Y.I Ent. Heechul was very encouraging towards all the girls and helped them a lot. he is her daddy long leg.

bff & mother / iu lee jieun / 26 / solo artist / kind, thoughtful, mature / they met during a variety show and since then iu has been like a mother to haru even though haru is 1 yr older. they get fairly close and celebrates birthday, sleep overs and goes out to eat a lot together when they can. they have like best girl friends vibes, even when they havent seen in each other in months due to work they would be able to talk for hours catching up.

when they finally debuted naive haru thought this was it but it was not. when they release Twinkle the company made haru join the variety show Heroes where she gain a lot of attention along with IU. when U.Jin left it she was emotionally unstable but continued to work hard for their next come back in december and continue filming. she was thankful that the cast and crew did not give her a hard time. after joining Heroes, doors to many more variety show open up because of how witty and quriky she is.

after leaving Y.I ent she felt a breath of relief. she alway loved going on variety show but it was mostly like she was force to go on and be bright. she wanted to try so many different kind of variety show and was able to join like hello counselor, law of jungle, real mean, king of mask singer, etc...some shows where she just didnt have to be funny and happy.

2017 / True / photos of her and model/actor lee soohyuk came out before his enlistment and both company has confirm the two are dating

Love Interest

Name. lee soohyuk

Backup. seo in guk

Personality.

On the outside people tend to think he is a cocky guy because of his looks, but he is rather soft hearted and friendly. It takes him a little bit of a time to open up to people but once you're his friend he is willing to give a helping hand anytime. soohyuk is no conversation starter but he is social and can follow a conversation. he is a calm and level headed person, he is observant and calculate all his thoughts and actions. friends and family are everything to him. he is passionate and loyal to them. he puts other before him and would rather much let himself be hurt then to see those he loves hurt. he would stick up for them but let hate and critizism of him slide. he is not into aggressive confrontation.

Love Story.

soohyuk is the guy who holds door for someone who is feets away. hes the type of guy who slows down his pace to walk beside you. he bring you yuja tea because he remembers that you once mention whenever you are sick with a cold your mother would make you yuja tea. and that was how haru completely fell in love with soohyuk.

the two initially first met in 2016 when haru went to support iseul on set for her awoo music video. he was the "leading" man in the mv and they just greted each other casually. they also met during mama 2016 back stage when haru tripped over her dress and almost broke her neck if it was not for soohyuk's quick reflex in grabbing hold of her. everything happen so fast she wasn't even able to thank him because the goup had to get on stage but afterwards she got his number and text him a thank you message. he text back for her to buy him a meal as a joke but their conversation continued through text and finally she did ask him out for dinner. the two bonded quickky over the same love for music, coffee, movies and when they found out both of them were good friends of jiyong they totally used that as an excuse to hang out more often.

their relationship is sweet, supportive, healthy, and fun. they enjoy just staying in and watching movies, or going out in big group. most of their dates onsist of going to the movies. ofcourse they have their ups and downs too its mostly because haru is more petty and just acts out to get reactions form him because he hardly ever gets angry or jealous.

just a week before his enlistment in august they two were photograph going to the movies and getting into his car before going to his apartment. both company confirm their relationship and some fans were excited while some thought how convient that he was enlisting and sowon's comeback was just a week away as well making them think it was a marketing stradegy.

during his time away they wrote letters and she visit him when she could. they are not too public with their relationship and haru has ony answer very few questions about their relationship on tv.

Status. dating

Ending status. married! just kidding...more open with fans about it like posting on sns like sooyoung and jung kyung ho

Hello there, Momo! Thanks for being the first applicant for Sowon! There are a few things that need to be adjusted before we can accept Haru so let’s get right into it.

First off, please specify what you mean when you mention witch hunt in Haru’s relationship with the members of Sowon. Is it to do with one of her scandals listed or something else? Moving on to her idol section, please add at least two more colours under the member colour section as it says to do in the cheatsheet. Also the rap twin and backup rap twin you have chosen for Haru are too strong. As the plotline you are applying for is not a lead or main rapper but just a rapper I would suggest someone like Dreamcatcher’s Gahyeon or Weki Meki’s Lua.

As for her post-debut activities, I understand that Heroes is meant to be Haru’s break out into the variety world, but looking through the cast of Heroes, I don’t think it makes sense for Haru to be a part of that show before the girls had their breakout as all the other cast members of Heroes had already gained popularity before appearing on the show while Sowon would have still been relatively unknown until their release of Oh! In august 2011. Keeping all that in mind, I would prefer if you removed Heroes from Haru’s body of work as it just won’t make sense with the story.

Other than those things, there is nothing else that needs to be adjusted! I really love the love story for Haru and Lee Soohyuk, I think the way they met is really creative and quite believable!

Anyway, once you fix those things mentioned, we would be more than happy to accept Haru! Thank you for applying for Sowon!
