"nene is really diligent, working in another country with a different language is a struggle but she's doing really well. she's also the one I'd go to feel relaxed and not lonely." - Curley
 

personality:

‣ A warm and gentle soul wrapped up in an easily flustered air. Together, these traits give her a sort of awkward charm that some people seem drawn to.
‣ Timidity, too, is something she grew out of, for the most part. Now she can initiate conversations, ask for a favor, make friends. She doesn't like to do these things, nor to leave her comfort zone (if she had the choice, she'd stay home all day and not talk to anyone), but at least she can.
‣ This has resulted in her being not too loud and outgoing, nor too reserved, though she does skew a bit to the quiet side. That is unless someone gets her to talk about music, which isn't so hard to do or presses her buttons. In general, though, she's just a bit subdued, observing the world around her—which can be nice if you're looking for a calm presence.


‣ Is the affectionate type when it comes to people she's familiar with. She's mostly affectionate with the younger/same-age ones since she wants to make them more comfortable with her. She'll often put more food on their plates, ruffle their hair endearingly, and whatnot. With the older ones she’ll be affectionately cute like Even though some may be annoyed by it, it doesn't mean she'll stop. In fact, she'll just be even more affectionate towards them because that's how she shows her love.
‣ She is also quite kind. Her demeanor is more gentle than anything else and tends to care a lot more than necessary. If someone she cares about is in need of help, she'd come to help, even if she isn't good at what needs to be fixed or done.
‣ She has quite an open mind. Nothing is too crazy, bizarre, or out there for her.
‣ In addition she is a creative soul who typically thinks outside of the box. Her self-expression is unique as many will say, but that's just her being the original and creative person she is.
‣ What surprises many is that she is also practical. Sure she can be very creative and think of many odd solutions to problems, but when she actually needs to get something done she'll get it done in an efficient way.

‣ Despite all the nice things about her, nene still has her flaws and they seem to co-exist with her brightest personality traits.
‣ Her old tendency of being timid, shy, and stuttering over her words comes back from time to time. She's always been sheltered her entire life, and because she had so many siblings, she never really was alone and thus, never needed to put herself out there and make that many friends. But after debuting, she thought she can’t keep being that way and had put effort to change.
‣ She's incredibly sensitive, even though at times, she'll act like she isn't. The truth is, sometimes it does get to her when someone teases her a bit too much or lashes out at her because of some random thing. She’s prone to bursting into tears at any moment. It hurts her whenever she sees even the tiniest of criticism against her, and while she tries to not make it known that she's so sensitive, those close to her can see through her act anyway.
‣ She is also more dependent on others than not. There's always someone to help her or will be around her. She can't stand the idea of being alone and more than anything. Being the one to have to 'pave her way' she would much rather prefer someone teaching her, so she won't mess up, but Nene sometimes feels fearful that others will leave her, so she tends to remain on the dependent side until a little before it gets too annoying to bear.
‣ Is a private person. She doesn't like people getting very deep into her business and doesn't like sharing her hardships with others. She'd rather they see the things she has excelled at over her failures and struggles. She blames that side of her on the ex-friends that left her after she opened up to them and thinks that she burdened them. She doesn’t want to go through that again and so she keeps a certain barrier.


 

 

my past, your future

 

background: 

Born in Bangkok, Thailand, Nene is the youngest of seven siblings in a pretty well-off family. So, with being the youngest in the family, she was coddled endlessly. After years of catering by her siblings, cuteness and affection now come naturally to her. Nene’s passion for performing arts grew when she was in middle school. She started learning to play the guitar at the age of 10 years old after she had attended a local band concert. Later, she joined a small band of her own where she was the guitarist and main singer when she was in junior high school and entered a couple of competitions in Bangkok where they won top 3 for most of it cause of their skillful playing at a young age and Nene’s soulful voice. Nene stayed in the band for 4 years until she left when she got recruited by a big thai company called gmm grammy. she joined a girl group called milkshake but they only lasted a year until they disbanded. however, she did stay in the company as an actress and took in multiple roles in thai dramas. having expressed her desire for going back to being a singer, nene agreed to her company's offer to sign with the chinese label, Huaying Yixing Media, as a trainee. her parents and older siblings were supportive of her decision to move to Beijing and train to be an idol. After moving there, it was a given that Nene suffered from a language barrier but she studied hard there to learn Mandarin with the help of other trainees. She training for 1 year, then her company decided to send her and a couple of other trainees to the idol survival show, Produce Camp 2020, which nene won 5th place in and debuted with Bonbon Girls.

it's awkward but I love it

 

first meeting:

the two first met through Blackpink's Lisa who's acquainted with them both. nene became friends with Lisa when a mutual friend organized a meetup and the two girls hit it off from there while Lisa and bright are childhood friends who were in the same dance team. one day, when Lisa and bright and a couple of their circle of friends were playing among us, Lisa thought she'd invite nene to join in as well. nene was hesitant at first but enjoyed playing with them and actually got along well with Lisa's friends so they all played frequently with each other. she had a notable tom and jerry-like friendship going on with bright which always made their other friends laugh at their interactions. though, the two never met in person and only talked through voice calls while playing. that is until they meet in r&i. THEY DO START OUT A BIT AWKWARD AT FIRST (MOSTLY IN NENE’S PART WHILE BRIGHT JUST FINDS IT STRANGE SINCE HE’S USED TO HER PRESENCE ONLINE) BUT THEN SLOWLY THEY'D REVERT BACK TO TEASING EACH OTHER LIKE THEY USED TO. THEY ALSO EXCHANGE CONVERSATIONS AND PERSONALLY GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER. WITH BRIGHT BEING THE SOCIAL BUTTERFLY HE IS, IT DOESN’T TAKE LONG FOR THE AWKWARDNESS TO FADE.



 

 

know you, love you

 

personality traits:

(+) Energetic, enthusiastic, charismatic, caring, brave
(=) Mooodmaker, clingy, competitive, kind
(-) Attention-seeker, impatient, stubborn, rebellious, mischievous, lazy, noisy

"Bright is always energetic and hyper. While it has its merits, sometimes he does things that make JB angry (laughs)." - Youngjae
 

personality:

‣ Bright, just like his stage name, is like an energetic puppy. He's almost always jumping and just being adorable.
‣ He’s constantly laughing, getting excited, maybe talking a bit too loud about something he likes and occasionally drifting off.
‣ He never fails to make the atmosphere bright with his jokes and funny personality. He loves to laugh about everything under the sun. He’s able to laugh raucously at jokes and he may have a big sense of humor in terms of cracking jokes. A simple smile makes him smile too.
‣ Sometimes acting like a child whilst still being grounded and wise enough to have a real conversation.
‣ When he is interested in something, he would show intense and eager enjoyment and spends time doing it. He is peppy and full of happiness and is a joy to be around. His countenance radiates virtue and love dwelling within.
‣ Kindness is splashed across his face. You would often see him greets whoever he meets (including complete strangers, he’ll easily strike up a conversation), opening a door for someone, giving up his umbrella to someone who doesn’t have one, allow a person with only a few items to go in front of his in line at the grocery store. He'd often reach out to the more introverted ones, and even if they don't want to talk to him, he'd still greet them every time she sees them.
‣ You’ll find him charismatic. A sincere smile, maintaining eye contact, being polite and courteous is his way of getting people on his side. He can persuade through his words, encourage with his optimism and confidence. It’s a skill he learned and practices because he’s really into impressing the whole population.
‣ He looks after the needs and other things of his loved ones, enjoys supporting them, and makes sure everyone is always happy. He’s willing to help anyone in need and when he’s in, he’s all in.
‣ He has a way of seeing the beauty in others, even, and most especially, when that person couldn’t see it in themselves. His definition of love is ‘being able to handle the pain together’.


‣ While he can make friends easily, he is the clingy type. He has trouble abiding by personal boundaries or encroaching on personal space. He can't trust other people easily and end up spying or trying to invade their privacy and see what they’re up to. He also tends to lean on someone for advice way too often.
‣ Everybody wants attention and Bright is no exception. He likes to show how he feels, so he keeps saying things on purpose. If his efforts go unnoticed, he may start fishing for compliments. The attention he will get in this case will provide him with reassurance and will help him think that he is worthy. It makes him feel like someone cares about what he has to say, makes him feel special.
‣ He can be difficult to deal with. He’d strongly resist any form of change for which he isn't ready. He’d refuse to back down just because others say he’s not good enough for a particular position, because, deep down he has enough belief in himself. He’s willing to hustle the extra mile to do things that actually make him happy.
‣ He likes to have fun by playing tricks/jokes on people. Yes, sure, he hates conflicts, but hey, a little prank from time to time is always funny right? However, he won't make a really bad joke, afraid that his target could get hurt, emotionally as well as physically. If you're his current crush, then no worries! You're protected from those jokes/pranks.
‣ He also tends to be loud and talkative when speaking, and his actions and voice may annoy some people. Someone has to make him stop if he really should be quiet, to which he'll comply and apologize for his behavior.

the end is our start

 

ending: 

throughout these couple of days, despite some ups and downs, nene and bright develop feelings and choose each other at the end. however, I'll leave it up to you whether they decide to take a step into their friendship and start dating or just stay as close friends after the show ends. 
 


 

 

talk, touch, feel

 

They're notable gaming buddies since bright mentioned nene amongst others when asked before who he usually played among us with. Whilst gaming, the two came to have a tom and jerry-like friendship where they'd banter endlessly but when teamed together they mesh well and mostly win. When they meet in person in the show, their interactions aren't that different. They do start out a bit awkward at first but then slowly they'd revert back to teasing each other like they used to. they also exchange conversations and personally get to know each other. with bright being the social butterfly he is, it doesn’t take long for the awkwardness to fade. The two get closer through similar work experiences and intrigueness to each other’s lives and different interests. Nene usually doesn’t open up to other people much but for some reason when at the moment with bright she feels like it’s safe and okay. he’s usually very peppy and energetic but he also adjusts to her mood. When he and nene are having a serious conversation, he’ll be attentive and empathetic but if he notices her mood dampening he’ll revert back and try to uplift her. that makes nene realize that she actually likes bright, and with that, her shyness is back. Bright notices her slight change and finds it cute, not holding back from expressing it. He thinks nene is adorable and never expected her to be close to his ideal type which is a pleasant surprise to him so he as well ends up liking her. Lisa, knowing her two friends are in the show together, regularly comments that she always thought the pair would make a good couple since they balance each other out and teases them by telling them that she’s rooting for them all the way.
