personality description.
Sori is the one to give assignments to and she will be the one to make sure it gets done. Sometimes she feels like she is the only one who is an adult with all 12 of the members. She often is told that she acts older than she is, mainly because she isnt careless and frivolous. She often times will downplay her acheivments with the others just so they have a chance to shine. She will take praise but it sometimes makes her uncomfortable. She speaks correctly to her superiors, doesnt talk down on people and refuses to use slang words. She is good with keeping secrets, she doesn't gosip and often finds herself covering up the others mistakes. She doesnt mind it, she takes care of them no matter what they need. 
Sori finds it difficult to relax, she is always poised and ready, often putting her in a place where she is the one asked to do the tedious things. She cant say no so it lands to her to get the others up, make late night trips to the store if they need something and to remind the others they need to keep the bathroom clean. She is not good with confrontation at all, the first time she was yelled at while at TS she just kinda curlled inwards and didnt stand up for herself at all. She is usually good at ignoring hate, it comes from online, who cares about that. But if someone were to get in her face and yell she wouldn't be able to stand up for herslf. She is the one who keeps the others from goofing around but at the same time she never goofs off. She is always told she needs to relax and have some fun but she just cant. It took her a while to befreind the members of Ground Nova, she is just plain bad at it. Its not that she doesnt want to have friends, shes a great friend she just cant connect with people very easily. She also has the least amount of fans because, while she has great stage presense, she doesnt have very good presense at variety shows or interviews. 


background.
For the first five years of her like Sori was completly normal. It was her, her two older siblings and her parents. Nothing happened out of the ordinary ever. Everything changed later fall after her 6th birthday. Her mother went on a week long hiking trip with a group of friends but once the week was up and no one came home people started worrying. A search party searched for three weeks before they even found a trace of the group, a month later they found the three remaining survivors. There had been a storm during the trip and they had taken shelter but were forced to leave it. They had to go deeper and deeper into the mountains for shelter. Two were injured and died, two were lost and one was swept away in the intial storm. Sori's mother made it but was never the same. Her best friend was lost but she never spoke of it, she refused to. 
Sori had always loved music and begged her mother for dance lessions when she was yougner. She was always the apple of her mothers eye so she got lessions, of course. 
It wasn't until she was eight that the hiking trip ruined the family. Sori's mother threw herself off of a peir into and her body washed up the next afternoon. Sori heard her sister talking about depression but she never knew what it mean, she just knew it was what took her mother from her. 
She was able to continue taking dance lessions but things at home started to turn toxic. Her father started drinking, lost his job and started bouncing from job to job. They were able to keep their house but hardly. Her older sister started taking care of them, making sure they had food, bathed and got to bed and school. That only went on for a few years. 
By the age of 13 her older sister had started going out and acting like a wild teenager so Sori was the one who had to step up and take care of the house. She stilll kept dancing but not as much as she used to, she wanted to there was just no time. 
When Sori got into high school she was able to get back to dancing but her style had changed. She was more serious and less emotional, she was only able to express herself in the studio and never at home for fear of retaliation from her father. 
After graduating from school Sori moved out of her house. She got a part time job and tried to move on with life. She never had any interest in college, all she ever wanted to do was dance and now it seemed like she hardly had a chance. 
When she was 19 Sori moved into her sisters apartment and was able to start dancing more and more. It was her sisters idea to audition for TS, so that they could do something together. Sori didn't think she woul make it but auditioned anyhow.

relations (friends & fam).
Father / Mae Youngchul / jumps from job to job / 48 / 3/10 / while Youngchul is a terrible father Sori can sometimes understand it. He lost the love of his life and just kinda spiraled. They aren't close at all but she still worries about him
Mother / Mae Sunah / Sori was incredibly close with her mother, she goes to visit her mothers grave often, at least once a month. It calms her, being able to sit and talk with her mom
Sister / Mae Yuen / 26 / trainee with Aura / 7/10 / Sori sometimes cant handle how immature her sister is yet at the same time, again, she understands it. She loves her sister and when she needs someone to lean on Yuen will be there.
Brother / Mae Minjae / 25 / Minjae was born with Down syndrome and for most of her life Sori took care of him, it wasn't hard, he is a massive sweetie. A few months after Sori started training Minjae went to a home, similar to an old folks home, because their father couldn't take care of him. Sori talks to him every day, sends letters and gifts and has promised over and over that he will get to come see Ground zero debut. 
Best friend / Sok Eunkyung / 24 / student / 9/10 / Eunkyung is the polar opposite of Sori, she is wild, outgoing and the life of the party. The two of them grew up together, their moms were best friends so it is only natural that they are best friends. Eunkyung asks repeatedly for a tour of Aura just so she can see all the 'hot trainee guys'. There is zero doubts that she would love Katsuo 
Keopi / Keopi is the real love of Sori's life, forget Daejung. She is a massive Maine Coon that she got for their first year anneversary. She weighs 10 kg so massive is an understantment. Sori will facetime Daejung just so she can talk to Keopi. If she doesnt come to visit enough Keopi will get angry and curl up in Sori's arms growling feircly. 

Wu  Daejung (fc Nam Joo Hyuk) 
195x120

 
Daejung is wicked smart, like he could rattle off formulas and stats like it is no ones business. He liked to study as a child and it overflowed into his adult life. He seems to know people everywhere and many, many people would consider them to be his freind, it is just his nature. He is funny and adventurous, always looking for something new to do. He is such a sappy romantic, he watches all the Korean dramas and wants that to be his relationships.
While Daejung is smart he is also forgetful. There were tons of days he would go without food simply because he forgot to bring any with him or he would leave the house with mismatching shoes on. He would always just laugh it off though. Sometimes when he startes focusing on one thing it is difficult for him to get off the subject, he just focuses too hard on one thing


first meeting & all interactions.
Daejung went to school with Sori and always had a crush on her. He did his best to sit near her every year even though sometimes he couldn't. He just wanted to be close enough to hear her. 
During school he had other girlfriends sure but it was never anything serious, he just wanted to fit in with his friends. He never had the courage to ask her out on a date though. 
After school Daejung went to college for marketing and creative writing. He started taking up the guitar for a past time and moved on with life. 
When he was 20 he went into a coffee shop and actually took a step back in time. Sori was sitting at a table, drinking and reading a book. She was just as beautiful as she was when she was growing up, the only thing he could do was stand there. It wasnt until someone bumped into him walking in the door that he moved. He got a coffee, mustered all his curage and went to talk to her. A miracle happened, she stood up and hugged him, asking how he was and had been. He was stunned but managed to sit down. They talked for a long while, it was just a cover for him to gather curage again and he just blurted and asked her to go on a date with him. She agreed. 
For the most part their relationship was via messenger, not in person. Sori was busy a lot and Daejung still had his studies. They did everything they could to meet at least once a week. 
Sori and Daejung's relationship is the sickeningly sweet kind, they were just adorible but they activly tried to hide it. It was Daejung that insisted, he kept saying that she was going to be a famous singer one day so she had to not have anything in her past. 
The past few months were difficult. Daejung graduated and got a job at a large company that kept him busy and Sori had been getting ready with Nova so they havnt been able to spend much time together. Often they would get together to do something but both would end up falling alseep rather than watch the movie

trainee life.
Sori sang and danced Orange Carmel's Catallena for her audition and was accepted that day. She was able to start training that week and actually loved it, she was being pushed harder than she had ever been pushed. It was so great, she hardly had time to do anything but.
Her favorite thing to do was learn Sonamoo's choreography as soon as they debut a video. Soon a group started learning them with her and they did a few covers from youtube. 
When whispers started floating around TS some trainees wanted to jump ship, they were worried that being from TS would drag them down and make it so they couldn't be with another company. Many did leve but Sori didn't, she didnt want to. 
One morning trainees showed up at TS and the doors were locked, lights were off and no one was there. Trainees freaked, thinking they were finished and some just left. Sori didn't really know what to do so she just waited there. A while later a young woman showed up in a van and pasted a paper on the main door, she didn't say anything just directed the trainees to a new building, Aura Entertainment. 
At first things were rocky and Sori didn't like it, she almost left. She wasnt being pushed like she was, she felt like she was just kinda plataeuing now. She held on though, hoping it would make a differance, she decided she was going to wait a year then she would leave and find something else. 
When Aura collected a group of trainees, Sori included, she thought they were done, that Aura was going under as well but it was the opposite. She was going to become a member of a new group, Aura's first group.

scandals.
'Aura's new girl group already getting male attention'
Sori was seen with Daejung, supposidly, on a date. It totaly was a date but Aura came up with a totally valad reason why they were together and eventually the media found other things to talk about. Sori was reprimanded but they are still together

post-debut experiences.
3 guys, Sori and Harin are in a dance/vocal group that performs Maxstep (I know there is only one female in it, we can just pretend)
