in heaven ❝ LEE CHAERI
— hulk ; a nickname earned over the years, because although you don't notice it at first glance, haeri is very strong physically.
— siren; one of her solo song is named heroine so fans now use it as a nickname for her.
— favorite daughter in law ; she won a poll after her solo debut about who netizen (older people mostly) would want as their daughter in law so it's like a joke between her and her friends.
— giraffe ; because she's tall, heaven's member (the maknae started it) start calling her like that affectionately.
she have two tattoos one on her right forearm with just "looking for heaven writen and a dolphin on her left foot.
⤷ WITH HEAVEN
back when she was younger, chaeri didn't care about fashion at all. she really didn't mind being stylish and often went for comfortable and cute outfits. now though it's a different story she's really into clothes and like to follow trends while looking chic. as she is now in her thirties she dress more maturely.
⤷ WITH HEAVEN
⤷ NOW
chaeri learned from a young age to be responsabile. she had to take care of herself, her things and take responsibility for her choices and decisions. because of that she learned to be very meticulous and organized. she always work on her schedule not by week but month so she can be ready for everything. that side kinda make her being bossy since she likes to be in control. she don't like being just a follower and will always try to give orders in order to keep things the way she want them to be.
chaeri gets easily impatient when she have to wait or just when things doesn't go her way. she also tends to be moody, jumping to a mood in another one in minutes. she will probably be all sweet and all then suddenly get mad at something silly sometimes without even having a reason.
she also have a really realistic view of the world. she's not really pessimistic but she is far from being a dreamer and doesn't romantize her life at all. she thinks logically and makes her decisions with the consequences not only for herself, but for the people around her. she likes to be honest with herself and with the people she really loves. she will never lie to someone she loves just because she is afraid of hurting them. she can become insensitive because she doesn't like letting her feelings get the best of her.
even if she comes as someone strong and sometimes even cold, chaeri is actually verry warm towards her family, friend and people she cares about. if they need her, she will always show up.because she is open minded, she will never judge anyone and therefore it is easy for people to confide in her. loyal to the bone she will always stand up for her people even in the worst times.
chaeri doesn't take criticism well. she gets super defensive, susceptible and gets upset especially if it comes from someone she cares about. and if you ever upset her she will be resentful for a long time. she may pretend to have forgiven you but she will never forget anything.
convinced by her grandfather how used to talk about who amazing her voice was, chaeri began to take an interest in music at a young age. at ten, she learned to play the piano and went on to singing competitions. she won many times but sadly she stopped after her grandfather death when she was thirteen.
she tried to stop singing by getting more into school but her mother noticed how much she was under pressure and start convincing her to do what she really wanted to do. unsurprisingly and after much thinking, she decided to make it big to honor her grandfather. she worked hard on her singing abilities and even took dance classes to get ready for auditions but she didn't have to do that because she got scouted while doing shopping with her mother in 2006 when she was fourteen.her father wasn't sure and didn't really trust MAXIMUM at first but after some crying on haeri part he gave up and let her join as a trainee.
mentally this period was definitely the worst of her life. she felt guilty for surviving, guilty to still being alive and was really depressed. after the funerals she spent all of her time at home under her mother's supervision because her family were truely concerned for her well being and mental health. she was unable to sleep for a long time, isolated herself to avoid people who were only interested in gossip and didn't talk to anyone.
hoping to make the guilty feelings disappears she started drinking more and more to the point where most days she happened to be already drunk in the morning.because she knew full well that it was the end of her group, she asked to be released of her contract but the label asked her to make one last song before leaving which she end up doing with the other members.
a few months later after having had a long conversation with her brother who is her best friend, she decided to take charge. She quit drinking and decided to live a decent life instead of ruining her own life. she tried to keep in touch with the other girls, but it was way too difficult.
— old songs (ever since she's young, she has always been into old-fashioned songs)
— getting her nails done (she like classy colors like red, brown or beige)
— cleaning her house when she's mad.
— so every sunday morning, she always takes times to make pancakes.
— she's really close to the ceo of MAXIMUM
— she has more than two hundred pairs of shoes
EXPLANATION despite the many suggestion of the label, chaeri didn't find a stage name for their debut so she just choose to go with her own name at the end.
so before the accident she used to be invited with girls on many show with heaven. she also made some cameo in some music video.
