Having grown up having to take care of herself on her own, Minji finds it really hard to accept help from someone else. She is really self-sufficient but sometimes goes overboard, doing too much work that is almost impossible to do on her own. Even though Minji can be super dedicated to things she is passionate about, put her to work on something she isn't interested in, and she will quickly get distracted and forget about it all. Although she is the youngest of her friends, Minji takes it upon herself to make sure everyone is happy. She cares for people around her a lot and puts their comfort above her own. She is always cracking jokes and wisecracks, to make others smile. Others smiling makes her happy, so she can always be seen acting like a clown. Sometimes, she does take the joke too far, since she sometimes doesn't realize if someone is sad.

Minji strives to be liked, by everyone, and this usually ends up with her acting 'cool' when that isn't really her. She's been told many times that changing herself for someone else is bad, but she can't see the habit stopping anywhere in the future. When she’s around people that she doesn’t know, she gets self-conscious and silent. She can be really outgoing with friends, but other people make her go into her shell. Would happen after she acted being close-minded or after practices. She'll feel sorry in the end of what she did towards her teammates and would worry if she has gone too far. About practicing, she'll be worryful because she thought it isn't good enough and make herself tired. Minji is a disorganized person, like really. Her room is a zone, her schedule is always messy, and she promise that will be more organized, but, never does. She is like this since she can remember and her mother had always fighted with her because of that.

bckground. Minji was born in Busan, to a family of two parents and a big brother. When she was 5 years old, they moved to Melbourne, Australia because her mom got a new job as a teacher there. While she grew up, she had a lot of energy, and her parents put her in taekwondo and swimming lessons in a hope to work out her energy, but then it became the thing that took over her life for a while. She did swimming and taekwondo for years, but when she was 10, her swimming teacher recommended she take a dance workshop happening in the same youth center. She attended the workshop, and immediately fell in love, she constantly dance and sung whenever she had time, and although she still loves taekwondo and swimming, she had her heart set on being a rapper. When she was fifteen, she got an offer from a professional youth swimming team in Korea, and her parents happily let her go, knowing she loved the sport.

After living in Seoul for a few months, and competing in multiple swimming competitions with her team, she was dared to audition for S.M by a friend. Never one to step down from a challenge, Minji auditioned, fully expecting to be cut, when suddenly the official came up to her and told her that she'd been accepted. As a trainee, she still swam with the team, but when she debuted she had to quit, although she still swims for idol championships and just for fun.

birthname. Vernon Chwe

PRSONLITY.

— Vernon has different personalities depending on his mood, from what we have noticed. He can be extremely charismatic, serious or what you call it, memesol. We've always known him as memesol as that's my favorite side of him! He is literally relatable with his expressions & his body language.

lovestory. 

— They both met each other because she was hanging out with hoshi and she got confused looking for him in the company. So then she bumped into Vernon and Vernon helped her out and they started to talk getting to know each other. Well at first they were really awkward with each other and they were too shy to talk to each other. They became best friends later on because they will always be hanging out and doing pranks on each other. But they will always be flirty with each other. One day when they were hanging out together. They were watching a movie together until Yubin started to stare at Vernon. Until Vernon notices it and turns to Yubin and he cups her face and kisses her. They pull away at the same time and they confess to each other at the same time and they started to date that day.

— At the end of the story they ended up dating and going out more and seeing each other too
