scroll down.
independent: meiyue is the only child and spent a lot of time alone at home as a kid, so she doesn't mind being alone. she actually works better alone and prefers being alone to recharge from spending time with people. 

caring: meiyue is too caring, to that that she gets stepped on like a doormat. she loves to help people, even those she's not close with. she will give emotional support to anyone who needs it. she does little things that you probably won't notice, like get a drink for you too if she gets on for herself, or clean up the mess you left behind. usually this goes unappreciated but its ok because she doesn't do it for a thank you or recognition, just the bottom of her heart. 

perfectionist: she gets an emotional attachment to anything she puts a lot of effort in. so she always wants the outcome to be good. any type of failure she'll blame herself. this can make her overload herself with tasks but hide the stress.

playful: behind all the shyness, she's actually funloving and playful girl. you just have to get past her many walls, which would take a while. she can be sassy in a passive aggressive but joking way and teases people. if you get close enough to her, you'll learn that shes a little weird too, she says random thoughts sometimes and just does random things that will make you say why would you even. so her close friends actually find her funny. 

reliable: meiyue keeps her word for everything. if she says she'll be somewhere 2 weeks from now at 2pm, she'll be there at 1:45pm. her memory is amazing so she remembers little details about people and uses that to do nice things like get gifts for them. she's also a great secret keeper because she barely talks anyways. and trust me, she'll always answer your text. it takes her a while to consider people as friends though, just because you talk one time doesn't mean you're a friend. she thinks you're only a friend after constant effort to talk to each other. 

curious: she loves to learn new things and get to know new people. this is why she may seem like an extrovert sometimes because curiosity gets the best of her and she just approaches people. but that's only because she wants to know more about others and whats on their mind. sometimes she might do things out of curiosity sometimes doing  things without thinking. 

sensitive: meiyue has a habit of taking things too personally. she doesn't forget anything that happens and she secretly holds grudges. she really doesn't forget anything. actually she's really moody and is bad at hiding it, but her moods are somewhat delayed. she thinks about things before having an emotional reaction. so she'll probably sulk about a situation that happened weeks ago.

tolerant: she has extreme patience, she just lets people do what they want and won't complain. or if someone screams at her, she'll just nod calmly and reflect about it later in her head. if you annoy her a lot, she probably won't say anything. but if you're close and annoy her, she'll have a comeback or chase you around. 

shy: meiyue is extremely shy. she cares a lot about others feelings so she often holds her thoughts to herself, even if someone takes credit for her work, she probably won't say anything. she really doesn't talk much unless she's really comfortable around you, but she thinks a lot. even when she's with a big group of friends and they're all loud, sometimes she'll rarely talk, instead just laugh at what other people are saying. and when you ask her, she'll say she had fun because she just enjoys their company. with her group, she doesn't mind being on the side, others usually have to pull her to join in. 

private: she never says whats on her mind or whats happening in her life unless she considers you very close. the ones she's close to understand her the best and she values friends who are reliable because she likes to keep her love life or emotions private. 

misunderstood: because she's so private, most people misunderstand her, especially those who haven't known them long. they are often unable to either hide or articulate any distress they may be feeling. it may seem like she's sad about something in the moment, but its usually something she's thinking about. it can be frustrating for people who get annoyed easily because she doesn't say anything. most people just say oh thats how meiyue always is or just ignore it since she just shakes her head in  response or says its nothing. also, since she's so quiet and looks distant sometimes because she's lost in thought, some thing she's cold or doesn't like them. but not true, she's just thinking ok.

1998: a young 20 year old thought she found the love of her life. they did everything together and he was the sweetest to her. the young love relationship did not last long, she was soon to learn that their love was one sided and she had a even bigger surprise coming. 

1999: meiyue was born on may 10, 1999, in hong kong, china. she lived in a small apartment in a run down building with her mom. her parents were disappointed in their daughters pregnancy and refused to help. her mom had to drop out of college to take care of her and work many odd jobs. they were behind the rent for months. meiyue spent a lot of time in daycare as a child, being neglected by the caretakers because they had so many children. she cried all day, but as soon as she was in her moms arms, she was happy.

2006: at the age of 7, meiyue was already walking to school by herself. she's a naturally curious person so she had a lot of friends even though she was shy. she was never embarrassed of where she lived, until one of her friends mothers offered to drive her home. when they arrived, the friend said "ew, look at that building, it looks so dirty." meiyue was so embarrassed that she didn't even go to school the next day. she wasn't mad at her mom though, she knew her mom was trying her best.

2008: when super junior m debuted, meiyue's mom was hooked. she watched all their tv appearances and had their song on repeat. her mom loved singing, she sang to young meiyue all the time. so much so that meiyue knew all the lyrics and developed a love for singing as well. 

2013: she found out sm entertainment was holding auditions in hong kong. now 14, meiyue kept her singing hobby as a secret. even when she went karaoke with her friends, she never sang all the way.  it was too embarrassing. but it was something she really loved. she also loved seeing her mom so excited everytime she watched people sing, that was her main drive to become a singer. when she got to the room, she planned to sing 不得不愛 by 弦子, but as soon as it was her turn, she froze. her mind went blank and she forgot all the lyrics. everyone was just staring at her like she had three heads, and next thing you know, she ran out the room crying. thats when she discovered she had stage fright. she knew she was shy and hated public speaking, but she didn't know it was that bad.

2014: at 15, meiyue got her first job, she worked at a restaurant, mostly cleaning tables and mopping the floor. she didn't make a lot but at least it was something to help her mom out. every check she got, she gave it to her mom or somehow spent it on her. 

2015: by 16, meiyue had 3 jobs. she still had her restaurant job, eventually getting promoted to manager because of her outstanding effort. she learned both english and improved her mandarin in order to talk to customers from all over the world, which the other staff couldn't do. when she wasn't working there, she would tutor kids and sometimes even her classmates, and babysit for her neighbors daughters on the weekend. it was a busy schedule but she somehow balanced it all. later that year she surprised her mom by buying her tickets to exo's concert in hong kong. exo was her mom's second love, after super junior. it was their first concert and it was amazing. she knew she wanted to be a singer, but seeing exo live made her more determined than ever.

2019: meiyue got awkwardly scouted by shim jojeong on her way to work. since they were a small company, they weren't holding auditions in china, but instead she got offered to go to send in an audition video. she sang 不得不愛 confidently like she was supposed to at sm then soon got an email saying she passed. next thing you know, her and her mom were on a flight to korea, and the rest is history. but the day her mom left korea, was the last time she saw her mom since then.

ELYSM
meiyue isn't close with her members. she's not confident in her korean and a lot of the time doesn't understand what they're saying anyways. usually she will just sit there while they talk. sometimes she'll ask what a certain word means if she never heard it before. because of the language barrier, the girls don't invite her to do things sometimes or forgets about her since she's quiet. a lot of the time she's in her room. but the other way around, her members think she's standoffish and cold because she doesn't talk so some of them don't like her or think she doesn't like them. when elysium debuted and meiyue started making friends, they were surprised at how outgoing she was and took it as she just didn't like them because they were korean. which is really untrue, she's just shy and embarrassed to speak the language. she gets hurt when the girls don't include her sometimes and she wants to get closer to her members but can't express it because the only member she's kind of friends with, isn't close with them either.

BFFS
best friends / yeh shuhua 葉舒華 / '00 / idol at gidle / estp / wong kahei 黃珈熙 vivi / '96 / idol at loosemble / infj /meiyue met these two because when shuhua found out meiyue was chinese, she instantly ran to talk to her and started talking. she was talking so fast that she didn't understand a word, she thought the language barrier would be the end of their friendship but when she found out meiyue speaks canto she got even more excited because she always wanted to learn. meiyue became friends with vivi after she heard her talking on the phone with her mom backstage. vivi is like the mom and shuhua is the loud chihuahua. she screams and does dumb things that sometimes meiyue will join her or make fun of her with vivi. since meiyue isn't very confident in her mandarin, she is closer to vivi. but shuhua ends up knowing everything eventually anyways because she always goes "tell me! tell me!" she's like a younger sister to the two girls that they love and take care of because she's so cute. but she's also very protective of her two sky older sisters.

FRNDS
pain in the / wong kunhang 黄冠亨hendery / '99 / idol at nct & wayv / entp / hendery is really outgoing and moodmaker so he can make anyone feel comfortable in the conversation. both hendery and meiyue have cantonese mother tongue so he wanted to get close to her since he wanted more friends who can speak it. he heard her speaking it with vivi backstage, and ever since then he hasn't left her life. he bothers her and does everything he can to annoy her because she's usually quiet and finds it cute when she gets annoyed. if you ever hear her scream its probably because hendery did something annoying to her that push her over the edge. which is hard because she has good tolerance.. so yeah.. thats how annoying he is. she never calls him hendery, only kunhang, so she'll scream "WONG KUNHANG!" and probably chase him around. usually vivi just sits and shakes her head at the two like old marry couple but shuhua will chase him too and jump on his back.

FRNDS
lil bro / zhong chenle 钟辰乐 / '01 / idol at nct / entp / meiyue and vivi love chenle, they just finds him adorable. just one year younger but she treats him like he's a baby. she calls him xiao yang (xiao yang literally means little sheep but more translated to little guy like affectionately). he's similar to hendery, pull pranks on people and he says random weird things but she still thinks she's cute. his smile aww. everytime she sees him she runs to him and squish his cheeks. and hendery get jealous for that and chenle sticks his tongue out at him. yeah he loves the attention meiyue gives him. chenle always gets a hug, but hendery, never. shuhua sometimes gets jealous too and say "hey! i'm cuter than him!!" and sulks because chenle gets more attention. chenle and shuhua argue all the time but vivi and meiyue think its because they have a crush on each other. they try to always push them together. but if she had to choose, she'll always baby shuhua instead of chenle.

CLS FD
close friend / xiao dejun 肖德俊 xiaojun / '99 / idol at wayv / xiaojun is very quiet but when you get to know him he becomes more outgoing. just like meiyue. he's usually the one to break up the playful fights or defends meiyue with hendery when chenle bothers her so much. and then hendery acts like he's betrayed or hurt. out of all the boys, meiyue is most close to xiaojun. they talk often on the phone and discuss many things. like favorite books, current events, music, or just their day. they have similar personalities and similar interests. sometimes they would facetime each other and just read together in silence, or write music together, watch movies, play ukulele together. they're both ok with silence so they don't mind if no one talks, sometimes its nice to have company even in silence. they're both emotional people so sometimes when they have a bad day they would call each other and rant. if meiyue is having a boy problem, she'll probably tell him because he knows how guys think. he gets bothered easily if she's upset over a guy though. he speaks cantonese so she's more comfortable talking about feelings and stuff with him. he's attentive to her and does little things to show he cares, like share food or gets her things. deep down he does like her a lot, even the boys know it. so vivi and shuhua make fun of them together, but every time she makes fun of his height and calls him a shortie or didi which means little brother in chinese.
jnYmBF5.png
CHAT
china/taiwan/hongkong line has a groupchat that they talk regularly, about serious stuff or send memes (mostly memes), gossip, and sometimes all hang out together. this tradition was started by amber liu who passed it down to jackson wang who passed it down to kun so now he's in charge of it and basically befriends chinese or taiwanese idols to be in it. meiyue is friends with everyone in the group but not as much as vivi, shuhua, xiaojun, hendery and chenle, they are also apart of the chat. everytime she sees any of them backstage or during music shows, she'll probably go to them instead. obviously she's closer to the girls here and they have their own seperate groupchat to complain about the boys but she hugs and talks to any of them when she sees them.

STAGE NAME: mei (美 / 메이)
POSITION: lead dancer, vocalist
TALENT TWIN: Tzuyu

TRAINEE SINCE: (01/2019)
TRAINEE PERIOD: meiyue had a hard time while training. she didn't know korean, she never took a dance class in her life, and she had stage fright. she cried in the bathroom before taking her first dance class, thats how scared she was. she expected everyone to be amazing but there were others struggling like her so she didn't feel as bad. she doesn't take long to learn the choreography, and she makes sure to put extra effort into her dancing since it was her weak point. working one on one with vocal trainers wasn't scary, they all said she had a beautiful soft voice, it was just a matter of getting it out that way in front of other people. monthly evaluations were the worst. she wouldn't be able to sleep the night before. she was terrible at hiding her nerves, her hands would shake when she was sing and her voice was a little shaky too but it got better overtime. she realized she can sing more easily when in a group, but singing alone is what terrifies her. she didn't speak mandarin well unlike other trainees so she didn't have any close friends and was alone for a year and a half.
STRENGTHS:
- she has a nice soft singing voice
- shes an energetic dancer
- her visuals are strong
WEAKNESSES:
- she lacks stage presence when she performs
- some say she's not lead dancer material
- her variety skills are bad because she's awkward and shy even though sometimes her awkwardness is funny

UALITY: heteroual 

IDEAL TYPE: meiyue likes someone protective that she can depend on. someone who will take the time to get to know her and not try to change her. looks don't matter to her, personality is the most important. she'd prefer if they could speak Cantonese since it's her most fluent language.

DATING STYLE: She’d be open to dating someone if she liked them, she has a hard time saying no to people and is very pretty so she’d find herself going on dates with people she’s not interested in them writing a long paragraph to say sorry she’s not interested. Only to see them flirting with another girl the next day like they weren’t just into her. She’s not interested in one night stands, she wants long term relationship. Though her giving people the benefit of the doubt makes her get into week long relationships because she’s terrible at rejecting people. Yet stern enough to keep her ity. 

She tends to be a giver in the relationship. Whether it’s gift giving or acts of service she shows that she's thinking about you in subtle ways. Always sharing her thoughts and interests and wanting to know her partners interests. Exploring places together or just staying in. In public she's more reserved but in private she becomes very cuddly. She's on the slower side of emotions, usually going quiet when some things wrong instead of screaming about it. She'd need someone who will take the initiative when it comes to opening up. She rather write her concerns in a letter than say it. 


REQUESTS: (optional)
NAME: Shim Jojeong
DATE OF BIRTH: -

PERSONALITY: -

LOVE STORY: The slowest of slow burns, for a long time their relationship remained professional. Jojeong is the one that discovered her and  he believed in her. There was a businessman who was interested in working with her for well know magazine, he was well known in the industry, of course Jojeong approved since Meiyue didn’t get much attention in the group. But after the photoshoot he was inappropriate with her. Meiyue never said anything though, she should be happy that she got a solo photoshoot in the first place. Due to her silence, he kept wanting to work with her and jojeong kept signing off on it cluelessly. It wasn't until he saw them together did he realize something was off. How uncomfortable Meiyue looked when he put an arm around her and her flinches at his slightest movements. 

Meiyue didn't know exactly what happened, all she knows is that the next day Jojeong had a bruise under his eye that he blamed on his hyperactive dog and she never saw or worked with that business man again. Ever since then jojeong checked up on Meiyue whenever he could. He would call her into his office just to ask her how she's doing and make small talk. At first it was awkward but he wanted her to feel like she could open up to him since he knew she was closed off to most people.

These little meetings became a monthly thing, Jojeong spoke conversational mandarin so they were able to talk but not deeply since both of their vocabulary wasn't good enough. Slowly he saw the girl open up to him and actually say her feelings, confessing about stage fright and he gave her advice, make her laugh. Eventually she started to get more comfortable around him. Their monthly meets that would last about 10 minutes at first turned in 20 mintues and later 30, then they last an hour sometimes because they just get lost in conversation. Jojeong is a serious business man but he also thinks a lot and loves learning things, sometimes jumping to different topics and Meiyue's curious nature always wants to learn more.

Jojeong surprised her one day by speaking Cantonese, that's when meiyue really could tell that he cared for her because he wanted to speak her language and talk to her more deeply. Eventually he made it a little obvious that they had a connection because he would walk past and ruffle her hair in the hallway or specifically give her more detailed feedback than the others at times. But overall their relationship remained innocent, professional and respectful. No one would suspect a thing. 


RELATIONSHIP TRIVIA: 

- they don’t hang out outside of the professional setting (yet?) but they text often about random things since they both like discussing random topics. she taught him how to play league of legends so sometimes they play together while on the phone

- in her phone he’s known as jojo nim, no one knows that him though

- she is completely clueless in love

- sometimes she brings him food that she made or buys him energy drinks/drinks that are good for your health since he works a lot

- she actually gets jealous easily but doesn't say anything, although jojeong can tell and finds it cute since she gets jealous over the most ridiculous things

- because of what happened he is very overprotective over her, he blames himself for it

- he loves how pure of heart she is

XIAO
HANXINGS
80%
DOS:
  • Meiyue is practicing late at night, she's suddenly been getting a lot of cfs and photoshoots so she hasn't had much time to practice and thinks her dancing is lacking. Jojeong sees her in the practice room to check up on her. She tells him that she thinks her dancing is lacking so he offers to give her feedback. He actually says that she did well but she breaks down crying and doubts her abilities, just being really hard on herself. He gets frustrated at hearing her words so he just pulls her into a hug. They thought that they were the only ones in the building, but another Elysium member was practicing in a nearby room and saw the whole thing. But she saw it incorrectly and twisted the story to be that they kissed. So the members put the pieces together and assumed that she was suddenly so busy with commercials because she has a thing with the him and thats why she thinks she's better than them. But none of that is true. Or something like this that results in rumors and tension with her members.
  • Netizens call her racist because she’s detached from her group and goes to other Chinese idols instead
  • Her and jojeong fighting because he says she should date guys her age since she barely has experience and it’s a conflict of interest for them to be together. But meiyue just wants him
  • She confesses what really happened with that businessman to Jojeong (you can decide how serious it is)
  • Jojeong is her endgame but doesn’t have to be her only relationship

DON'TS: none
SUGGESTIONS:
  • she shares a song with joejeong and he translates it to korean and gives it to Cygnus. During the listening for their upcoming album she heard the song and was shocked that it was her
  • xiaojun confesses to her
  • her publicly getting hate from netizens because of the racist allegations, she has more fans in China than in Korea because knetz make her seem like the villain 

ANYTHING ELSE: hi I hope she's ok! I'll let you choose her relationship with Somang.I'm loooking froward to how her future plays out hehe

hi there! so I was just stalking apps after turning mine in
and as a hongkonger I just wanted to point out that most people in guangdong actually aren't very good at cantonese / have a very obvious accent as schools there emphasise mandarin a lot more and everyone starts learning since young. a lot of younger people consider their first language mandarin rather than cantonese as well! the last generation who would actually be fluent in canto would probably be those 40+.
all schools teach english as well, but schools in china aren't as equipped and so most students aren't that good in english even though they start learning since around 6/7 years old.
