  BASICS 
NAME shimizu daisuke  清水 大輔
OTHER NAMES
 DAMIEN his official english name he used while he lived in australia and america. barely uses the nickname since living in south korea.
 DONGHYUN  동현 his official korean name he used during his high school years in south korea as it was easier for the other students to call him by a korean name than his japanese birth name. he stopped using the name after graduating, so many know him more as daisuke than donghyun.
 DIA this was the name he went under when he was a underground rapper.
NICKNAMES
 DANCING MACHINE mainly due to his knowledge of many styles of dance, he was quickly given the nickname on produce x 101 and has followed him to A1.
 PUNK many people think daisuke is a punk due to his fashion sense and so this nickname blossomed because of so.
 PAPI a nickname that daisuke penned when he was on produce x 101. he may not of been the oldest, but he was sort of older than a lot of contestants on the show, but besides that, he has a lot of y energy when he performs and a lot of fans who watched his performances would often comment "Whose the papi with the silver hair?" usually followed by "Damn, papi!"
 
DAD he has dad energy, in both scenarios. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

ETHNICITY japanese
NATIONALITY korean
LANGUAGES
 KOR fluent due to growing up in south korea since 2011, he has studied and grew to learn the language. he is quite fluent now, his old accent barely even noticable now. some people find it surprising to hear his fluent korean, especially after learning that he is ethnically japanese.
 ENG semi-fluent he grew up in english speaking countries for nine years and the only reason why he isn't fully fluent is due to living in south korea for so long. has a faint australian accent when speaking english, but it isn't that noticable due to living in america more than australia.
 JPN conversational mother tongue, obviously learned from his parents. originally his parents had him speaking japanese at home to keep up with their native langauge, but after moving so much, it wasn't a surprise when the tradition was forgotten and soon daisuke's fluency dropped. he has forgotten a lot of vocabulary due to korean and english taken most of his brain, but he can still keep a conversation going.
 CHN basic very basic, only knows a few vocabulary words in mandarin. began studying under fantagio, meeting chinese trainees and wanting to converse with them. hasn't studied the language since he was busy with produce x 101 and such. will most likely pick it back up in case A1 ever has chinese promotions or to converse with chinese fans.

APPEARANCE
one of the first things you notice about daisuke is, unfortunately, his height. he's rather on the short side, but his charisma surely makes up for it. another thing to take notice about daisuke is his warm smile, eyes going into little cresents.
he has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, which is usually hidden by his unique taste in fashion. his skin is a nice tan and his body lean with muscles that he gained from his swim team back in high school.
his hair, naturally black, has been bleached and dyed silver for as long as he can remember as it's his signature style, but he's open for other colors for future promotions.
daisuke's ears a certainly pierced, matching his fashion style (ref. nct's ten). he also has an eyebrow piercing that he can take out depending on a1's promotions. he only has one tattoo of a diamond that's on his right hip.
STYLE
daisuke's fashion sense can be described with one word: punk. colors that mainly make up his closet are black, and sometimes really, really dark gray. he has a collection of ripped skinny jeans, choker collars, baggy band shirts, worn out converses, studded chain belts, you name it! he most likely has it in his closet.
he very much loves accessories like rings, earrings, chokers, and belts. he has some type of accessory that will match any of his clothes and outfits. it's necessary to complete his looks!
  WHO YOU? 
PERSONALITY
 POS 
mature, paternal, charismatic, hardworking
 NEU 
observant, quiet, mellow
 NEG 
perfectionist, clumsy, awkward, gullible
when you first meet daisuke, you can tell he is a mature young man. he is determined to do whatever he can to keep people from falling out into silly arguments and nonsense, easily taking care of tough situations with patience. he's happy to listen to new and challenging ideas and view points without accepting or rejecting them blindly. despite him being a only child, somehow daisuke has developed a fatherly persona with his friends. usually due to his maturity and level-headedness, daisuke just screams dad (or daddy, depending on the context-). he's good at giving advice and doting on the younger members, giving them his attention when needed. overall, daisuke is extremely charismatic with his adaptability. put him into any situation and daisuke will step up to the task, no matter what happens and adapt with the best of his abilities. he knows what people want, whether it's his soft side or his y side that comes out when he dances. another charming point of daisuke is how hardworking he is. he's ambitious, always willing to go the extra mile to get better in a simple skill or to help a fellow friend out. all his skills were something that he has worked on by himself, nothing more hardworking then that.
daisuke is definitely quick to notice things when they happen (or about to happen). it's like he has eyes in the back of his head, being able to know someone behind him even when they are trying to sneak up on him. another thing about daisuke is that he's a pretty quiet person, hardly ever making noise or announcing his presence every time he walks into a room. he prefers to keep to himself and let people naturally find and seek him out rather than make himself known as that is something that he's grown used to since he was a kid. underneath his fatherly exterior, he's actually a soft guy, mellowed out by his early maturity. he lets things go with the flow (unless something disrupts the flow, then he'll go and fix the problem) and hardly lets things anger him.
if there's one thing people know about daisuke it's that he known to be quite the perfectionist and it usually has to do with himself. even with his great skills and overall great attitude, he always thinks he needs to improve and work on something. he never calls himself perfect and will proceed to work himself until it's close to perfection. even with that, daisuke is, well, quite clumsy. clumsy with his hands, actions, and words. once in a while, he will find himself mixing his words or actions, tending to come out awkward. his clumsiness tends to just blend in with just him just being quirky. speaking about awkward, daisuke certainly is awkward. maybe it has to do with him use to being by himself and not with sudden popularity, he just...doesn't know how to compute it very well. someone talking to him suddenly when they usually don't talk will have him freezing up and just staring with a blank look on his face. sometimes, when one catches him off guard, he may says things wrong or in the wrong context and then it just ends up being akward all together. despite that, daisuke can be quite gullible, especially with any of the young members of the group. something sweet and innocent sounding he believes without much more reasoning or one asking him to do their chores cause their foot hurts when in reality it really doesn't.
 
BACKGROUND
daisuke grew up with eccentric parents that were freelancing artists. they took on jobs all over the world, never settling in one place for too long. so it wasn't a surprise when daisuke turned five, his parents got a job opportunity in australia and there went his family.
learning english was hard, especially since he was so used to japanese, if only for a bit. kids looked at him weird, especially when he tried his hardest to speak their language, but only a garbled mix of japanese and heavily accent english bits. he was fairly quiet due to the kids staying away from the 'weird kid', but it didn't bother daisuke that much as he used the time to study up on english and hoping that one day he could be understood.
the family only stayed in australia for two years before they found themselves moving once again, this time to america. they settled in las vegas and daisuke learned a lot of new things. he was another 'weird' kid here as well, but he just continued to keep to himself. he soon found out about dancing and daisuke thought it would be fun to learn. though he kept this new interest to himself, not wanting to bother his parents just in case they ended up having to move again. he began to look into different dancing styles, looking up videos and trying to copy what he saw in the videos. it was a long process, but daisuke thought he was getting somewhere with his own studying and practicing.
he continued with his own little hobby for some years until his parents got another job call; this time to south korea. so the family were on their way to seoul, south korea. daisuke soon had to learn another language, though it helped that his parents did enroll him into a international school. despite him going through heavy studying sessions to learn korean, daisuke was quite popular among the students despite his awkwardness. he especially grew in popularity when everyone found out he could dance.
with his new group of friends, one friend introduced daisuke to south korea's underground rap scene as he was an aspiring rapper. daisuke grew very interested and his friend thought that was really cool since some of his other friends really didn't care for his rapping hobby. his friend decided to help daisuke with his korean and, at the same time, teach him the works of rapping. it was quite a surprise when daisuke caught onto rapping very quickly, much like he did with dancing. they became quite a duo themselves, only gathering a small fanbase on the streets of rapping underground.
after graduation and in his own freetime, daisuke opened up a youtube account where he began to post dance covers and choreo videos. some people recognized him as the underground rapper dia from the rookie duo 'rook' with fellow rapper killz and were quite blown away with his dancing talent. to daisuke's surprise it didn't take long for his youtube to blow up a bit due to his y and sensual way of dancing. due to his sudden popularity on his youtube, it also didn't take long for other people to notice him.
on his way to filming a public dance practice, he was noticed by a man in a nice suit. he was approached by the man and even though a part of him was wary of this stranger, he let the man speak. he was given a company card, fantagio it said, and the guy invited him to a private audition. despite being skeptical of the man's proposal, he nodded and said sure. daisuke had never really thought about being an idol before, he just liked dancing and rapping on the side.
daisuke when to the private audition, thinking that the experience would just be something to look back on. he auditioned with a choreo piece he thought of himself, and rapped a bit. he was a bit rough around the edges, mostly due to the fact that all his talents were cultivated by himself with no professional help. the judges were very intrigued with that tidbit. daisuke went into the audition thinking he wouldn't be accepted, but was especially surprised when he got a callback, saying that he was accepted.

TRIVIA
  100% homoual and there's really no denying it. sure, he's nice to women, but he hold no romantic or ual feelings for women.
  he won't out right say he's gay, but if someone asks or calls him out on it, he'll come right out. he's not afraid of his uality, his parents taught him to be proud of himself.
  despite his punky wardrobe, daisuke has a bunch of rainbow (and specific flag colors) accessories that he likes to throw on randomly to show his support to lgbt+ community. whether it be a button, a pair of converse, or a belt, he will wear them in public regardless.
  has been told that he doesn't seem like the typical 'gay' man because he seems 'straight', but daisuke is confused by such statements because how does he seem straight when he straight up says he doesn't like girls? 
  most fans are rather surprised when they realize how short daisuke actually is because he radiates tall energy, especially when he's dancing.
  was a member of the swim team in high school, which is where he got a lot of his muscles from.
  he's not the worst cook, he knows how to make certain dishes and how to make them correctly and tasty. he enjoys cooking or helping the other members cook.

  has survived watching all the human centipede movies. his friend killz even bought him the t-shirt.
  a really bad liar. cannot lie whatsoever.

  hella addicted to coffee.
  his favorite type of music is rock music and he doesn't have a preference for languages, he loves all types of rock music.
 
SOCIAL MEDIA
  back when he was an individual trainee, daisuke had his own youtube channel under @diamondintherough where he posted dance covers and choreo videos. it when under a hiatus when he was picked up by fantagio. most likely will pick the channel back up in the future, will probably add _a1 on the end.

TRAINING YEARS 2017 - present
TRAINING LIFE
being an official trainee was weird at first. since daisuke had grew up cultivating his own talents, we was unused to listening to actual trainers and instructors. his first year at fantagio was a bit rough, but daisuke grew use to the professional training and developed more into his dancing style and found that he was actually a good singer as well.
it really wasn't a surprise that daisuke was squeezed into the small trainee group that fantagio put together. his all-rounder talent meant he could help fellow trainees practice their weaknesses.
things were looking up for daisuke. there was talks of their trainee group possibly debuting, but then something else came up. another produce season for males and fantagio was gearing up to send trainees to the survival show once more. daisuke was immediately thought of and daisuke actually took up the offer. if he was a contestant, he could get more exposure for the future group.
with his mind made up, he entered the produce world and took netizens by storm.
he made a lot of people turn heads, especially with his japanese name and fluent korean. he further surprised everyone with his audition song that had the judges instantly think 'a'.
daisuke definitely left his mark on produce x 101 and despite being one of the most popular trainees on the show, he was sadly eliminated before the finale, but daisuke didn't let that get to him. he went on the show to get exposure and that's what he got.
he came back to fantagio content with his final ranking and fantagio was proud of him. soon enough, daisuke was ed back into training, especially with the added new members, the trainee group trained hard for their up and coming debut soon to come.
PRE-DEBUT EXPERIENCE
  prior underground rapper under the name dia. he was in a rap duo called rook with fellow underground rapper killz.
  prior youtuber under the name @diamondintherough.
  prior contestant on produce x 101 under fantagio. daisuke ended at rank 30, but was a rather popular contestant.
PRODUCE X 101 EXPERIENCE
 AUDITION dang dang dang (extra: there goes my baby), ranked A and stayed in A during the reevaluations.
 ROUND 1 no more dream (replacing kim hyunbin), was the captain of the team due to him being the only who knew bts' debut song. his team not only beat the other bts team, but won out of all the other teams.
 ROUND 2 me after you (replacing kim hyunbin), decided to choose vocal to test his vocal prowess. ranked low due to not being your average vocalist, but was praised for challenging himself to try it.
 ROUND 3 move (replacing kim hyunbin), was chosen for the main rap position due to his history in underground rap and was praised for his performance. despite the praise, he was still eliminated after the round.
HEADLINES & SCANDALS
  possible headlines about his nationality, his japanese name & fluency in korean.
  there will be tons of headlines (and possible scandals) about daisuke's supporting lgbt+. he knows coming out publicly would be career suicide, but he it won't stop him from supporting it wholeheartedly.
  maybe he eventually comes out? cause i can also see daisuke not being one to lie, especially to his fans. there would be tons of speculation about his uality throughout a1's career, but he would eventually come out.
FUTURE ACTIVITIES
  possible solo career? i can see him wanting to explore his vocals more and so you may use daniel's solo work for possible songs!
  composing rock tracks for a1! rock music is daisuke's favorite type of music and he's always experimenting with rock sounds, so it'd be cool if he would compose some rock tracks for a1!
 
HOW DOES DAISUKE FEEL ABOUT THE NEWEST SEVEN MEMBER AUDITIONS?
unlike some of the other original members, daisuke is quite open to the new members. he was one of the few who opened his arms for the newer members to intregrate them all together. sure he was glad with the original, but daisuke thought it was nice to see fresh new faces.
