APPEARANCE
Tara is mixed so she has darker skin than the average Korean, it's really her eyes that give away her half Korean identity. She's actually pretty tall at 170cm tall and 49kg. She got legs for days and a cute eye smile and a gummy smile to match. Her hair is naturally a curly afro she barely ever straightens it she rather show off her curly hair since it's what makes her unique. Her natural hair is almost shoulder length but she likes to experiment with extensions and braids since her parents can do it for free. Now she has curly extentions that make her hair to her lower back and loves putting accessories like bows.
 
FASHION
Tara is super girly, she loves dresses, skirts, heels, accessories, all of it. As a teenager she keeps up with what's trendy but doesn't really let it dictate her whole fashion sense. She just gets inspo from that if she likes it. Most of her inspo comes from designer brands and the fashion shows she goes to. But instead of wearing all name brand clothes she wears more affordable things that give off an expensive vibe or whatever vibe she's going for since she's far from rich. She'll admit that she got her clothes from the underground market in gangnam without shame because she doesn't see the point in acting like something she's not.

TRAITS ESFP
POS  mature, innocent, friendly, realistic, positive
NEG — naive, indecisive, stubborn, impulsive
 
ELABORATION
Tara is so cute, she gives of such an innocent and bright vibe. She has the ability to make anyone feel comfortable even if they don't know her well since she talks to easily. But not too much, she's still socially aware so she won't overtalk if she feels shut up vibes from the other person. She really picks up on others emotions easily, she's so perceptive you can't hide anything from her. So if she sees someone down even slightly she'll try to include them to cheer them up.
 
She tries to look on the positive side of life. When she was younger she heard bad comments about being half black and her parents reassured her that she shouldn't let salty strangers affect how she lives her life. So now thats what she lives by, she refuses to let negative people bring her down. She's learned to ignore the hate long ago and do what makes her happy. She has no intention of changing herself to fit into society or be liked by others, those that are meant to like her will like her. She has no problem openly talking about her struggles to educate others. She's just really inspirational and mature for her age, her parents raised her to be wise beyond her years.
 
But just because she's self confident doesn't mean she doesn't have her time of insecurities. Like any other normal person she has her days of feeling not pretty enough and peoples words still hurt her sometimes. But she prefers not to give them the satisfaction of seeing her cry so she cries later. During those times she calls her parents or Solbin or Hanjun to help her feel better, especially her parents give her great advice while Solbin just threatens to fight them and Hanjun reminds her how beautiful she is.
 
All in all Tara is still only sixteen. She's still indecisive and asks her friends and parents opinions before doing something even though she'll most likely do it anyways. She has her pouty, sassy, and moody moments. She has bursts of energy that makes her impulsive. She's still learning and naive because she wants to believe the majority of people are still good natured. She's still a person that has emotions and makes mistakes like anyone else.
DigDeeper
Tara's parents met when her mom was doing charity work in Haiti. After falling in love she lived there for five years, they opened a hair salon and got married. They moved to Korea and opened another hair salon/barber shop business in Hongdae. Three years later Tara was born. Her parents were well aware of the struggles of being an couple in Korea so they were worried about the struggles their child would face. So they didn’t sugarcoat anything for Tara, they warned her about those kind of people and taught her to love her skin color and curly hair. They did a really good job explaining the situation to her without scaring her or making her anxious to make friends. They even went to her elementary school to talk about race in front of her class and educate the kids as well. But dealing with racism was unavoidable, first and second grade were the hardest for her because she had friends but their parents were the ones that stopped them from hanging out calling her dirty.
 
She remembers a specific incident when she saw her friend at the park on the weekend and went to go play with her. But her mom whispered something in her ear and she went back to tell Tara that she couldn’t play anymore. Instead of just being sad and accepting it Tara went up to her mom and told her “I’m not dirty! I’m beautiful like chocolate! Your mind is dirty for making fun of a little girl!” The girls mom was standing there all shocked and embarrassed and suddenly a bunch of kids went up to Tara to be her friend because they thought she was cool. That’s where she met Solyoon who went up to her and said “I like chocolate”. That was the beginning of a life long friendship, Solyoon became her best friend and they did everything together.
 
After second grade school got easier because all her classmates accepted her. She didn’t let the ignorant comments of parents or random adults in the street with nothing better to do bother her because she was confident in herself. She got voted class president because everyone liked her and was the vice president of the kpop club. She was a huge multi stan and had posters all over her room like any other teenage girl. She dreamed of being an idol too one day and her parents supported her by letting her audition for hanlim high school where she's a freshman. She got accepted as a broadcasting and entertainment major.

Relationships
PARENTS / MARC JEAN-BAPTISTE & BOO YOOYEON / 49 & 47 / HAIR SALON OWNERS / FRIENDLY, HUMOROUS, OPENMINDED 
Tara’s parents are the ones that shaped her into the amazing person she is now and she’s really grateful for them. She tells her parents basically everything and they’re just happy that she became such a bright girl despite the struggles. Tara’s parents are super chill, the kind to bring cupcakes to her school for her birthday. But they're not overly chill that they never discipline her. She’s close to both of them and they’ve made many appearances on her TikTok. They’re always looking to make friends in the community to help people feel welcomed, unafraid to speak up about things and bring attention to needed issues. Their hair salon business is booming with foreigners and Koreans, they have two locations one in Hongdae and another in Itaewon. They’re also not shy when it comes to discounts for friends!
 
BEST FRIEND / JUNG SOLBIN / 16 / MUSICAL THEATER STUDENT AT HANLIM / ENFP / FC: Kep1er's Yeseo 
Though she has an air headed and clumsy personality Solbin is like a second mom to Tara. Since they’ve known each other for so long and she’s sees the struggles that Tara has been through she’s very protective over her friend. She’s ready to fight anyone that even looks at her the wrong way even though Tara could very well defend herself. Anyone that talks badly about Tara has to at a long rant from Solbin about how she’s the bestest friend ever. She’s the main person to feature in Tara’s TikTok videos and is the reason Tara got into singing and dancing. As a musical theater major at Hanlim Solbin is an amazing singer but her intentions are to go into theater instead, not a girl group. Though that didn't stop her from dragging Tara to dance classes and Karaoke. But when Tara is on the show, she’ll call her and text her everyday to tell her the latest news at school and remind her to eat well. Anyone who Tara becomes friends with on the show is definitely getting her vote.
 
BOYFRIEND / TAMURA HANJUN / 16 / FILM STUDENT AT HANLIM / ISFJ / FC: P1Harmony's Soul
Hanjun fell in love with Tara the minute he saw her. He thought she was the most beautiful person he’s ever seen. He’s a lot more shy than Tara and Solbin so he was intimidated by them a bit at first. It was his friend that pushed him to her as a joke and Solbin was about to beat him up because she thought he pushed her on purpose. He had to go through Solbin first before he could talk to Tara to make sure he had pure intentions. After finding out that he did and he had a crush on her, Solbin is the biggest Tajun shipper ever. She was a big help when it came to helping him get Tara interested as well. Without her they probably wouldn’t even be dating now. It’s been 6 month since they started dating, Hanjun got the whole class to help by giving her gifts of her favorite things on her way to class that morning like a carton of strawberry milk, the eunwoo photo card that she’s been dying for, a pair of earrings that she said she liked last week and more. By the time she got to the classroom the other classmates threw flower petals when she entered and he was standing there palms sweaty to ask her out. They got in trouble later when the teacher came for the mess but it was a worth it because they started dating. Hanjun is the kind of boyfriend that everyone wishes they had, he’s attentive and supportive and cute and just all about Tara. They have that adorable and innocent puppy love that doesn’t go beyond simple skinship and pecks. Sometimes he just sits back and admires her beauty while she talks with friends. Solbin has to smack him back to reality more often than not. He stands on the traffic side so she doesn’t get hurt, he opens the door for her, they send each other sweet texts all the time, he’d make an extra lunch just for her because he knows she loves Japanese food. They’re just the couple you wanna be and basically rub it in your face because they’re so damn cute. She's not afraid to gush about him either, it makes Solbin wanna vomit sometimes (in the most supportive way possible). Hanjun is half Japanese so he knows the halfie struggle to an extent since he can blend in more than Tara can. He’s the shy and observant type but when it comes to Tara he will stand up for her when he has to and makes a awkward appearance on her TikTok since he can't dance at all. But he usually is the person behind the camera. At hanlim he’s a film major and wants to make a film about the struggle of halfies in Korea. He’ll make sure to tune into Produce Angel whenever it airs and vote for Tara as much as he can.

FELLOW CONTESTANT / LEE SOMIN / 17 / EX TRAINEE / ESFJ
since they're near the same age tara would want to be friends. she'll be that friend to boost her confidence and scream at her when she's being insecure about herself because she's so beautiful and elegant!! 
 
FELLOW CONTESTANT / KAWAMURA YUME / 22 / EX IDOL / ISFP 
tara was a fan of weki meki so she can't even believe yume is there. she would run up to her and tells her she's a big fan and cling to her so they can be friends. she'll flex her limited japanese too. tara thinks yume is so cute and tiny she just wants to protect her like an extrovert adopting an introvert.

Let'sHearFromYou?
IF YOU WERE A MEMBER OF A K-POP GROUP, WHAT WOULD YOUR POSITION BE? “I want to be the vocalist and dancer! Nothing main or lead, I’ll be happy with just a few parts. As long as I’m in the group that’s all that matters right?”

OUT OF 10 HOW TALENTED WOULD YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF?  “Actually I don't know. I never really sang seriously or danced seriously it was all fun to me so I never evaluated myself. But people on tiktok say I'm a good dancer so I must have some talent hehe.”

WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE A KPOP IDOL? “I was always the biggest fan girl, I have too many biases I can’t even count anymore. The wall in my room is like full of posters. But I rarely saw people like me on TV, I mean I know there’s Han Hyunmin and Fatou from Blackswan. But to have someone that’s half Korean and half black in a group is really rare. Korea is my home, it’s all I know and representation is really important for people like me. I’m not saying that I’ll debut or anything but maybe I can just give some other girls hope by being on the show. Like imagine someone having a poster of me and fangirling, woah that’ll be so cool.”

DO YOU HAVE GOOD STAGE PRESENCE AND CHARISMA? WHAT ABOUT STAR QUALITY? “Ahh I don't know. I never performed other than on tiktok but im really good at getting the vibe of the song and imitating idols so maybe I can fake it till I make it haha.”

WOULD YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF A TEAM PLAYER? “Oh totally, if someone needs my help I’m helping in any way I can. I can’t just be selfish and watch people struggle because I was lonely at one point too. I hope the other girls are team players too and we can all be friends.”
