prsoNlity. strong-willed, determined, responsive, unforgiving, temperamental, argumentative

Yeonjin is a weird person. Most of her actions and how she portrays herself doesn't always correlate with how she really is. It usually depends on how close she is to someone and the situation itself. Anyway, Yeonjin is a girl that is strong-willed. She's always having the will to continue on even if she really doesn't want to. Yeonjin will make due with it regardless. This is why she's so determined because she doesn't give up and always goes head on. Even though she doesn't do it quite quickly she'll eventually end up doing it because she can't let it go. Yeonjin is also quite responsive and will reply to almost anything and everything. Whether it's a person, animal, inanimate object, or when it's not even directed at her. This makes Yeonjin a bit noisy and chatty at times. Yeonjin can also be quite unforgiving and is why she's so strong-willed, as she doesn't forgive others so easily and can hold a bit of a grudge. She's not likely to budge unless you somehow persuade her really well or bribe her with sweets and cute things.

Yeonjin can also be quite temperamental and a bit abusive due to her temper. She'll curse under her breath and ignore the person that made her angry or hit them depending if they continue to pester her even though she has warned them. If it's an inanimate object or a game, Yeonjin will end up hitting it and ask why it's acting stupid and the likes. Anyways, Yeongjin is very argumentative when she knows that she's right and wants to question the other person on why they think or believe what they think and believed. Yeonjin will also voice out her thoughts when she knows that the situation isn't right and or when someone is getting picked on or ganged up on. You do not want a temperamental and argumentative Yeonjin combined as she is like a bull and will rage on and on unless you shut her up somehow or distract her to make her lose her train of thought. Bribing Yeonjin with sweets or cute things do not work when she's in this state.

All in all, Yeonjin can come off as a mean person being stubborn, blunt, straightforward, and insensitive at times, but it's usually because Yeonjin doesn't know how to deal with being nice and sentimental with those she's not familiar with. It's kind of like a defense mechanism for Yeonjin to assess people and pretty much pre-judge them and for her to wonder how to go about in interacting and socializing with them. Yeonjin's pretty rough around the edges but deep, deep down inside, she's really a good person, it's just and temper that gets her into trouble. Also Yeonjin's cold attitude and indifference of looking at stuff makes her quite intimidating to approach as well. Sometimes she still wonders why she's like that and not a bit more happy-go-lucky like others she has met. Although Yeonjin has try to do so, she always bounce back to her old self with slight improvements with each attempt to be friendlier and nicer at times.

However, Yeonjin realizes that being around others not her brother and closes friends that she can't be the temper and violent way person she is. She figured this was just who she was, but realized that they were just tolerant of her and she probably brushed off their words whenever her angry outbursts occurred. Yeonjin takes it upon herself and taking advice from others around her to correct her behavior and learning to control her temper. She even takes anger management classes or lessons to better herself and even keeping a journal of her journey to help remind her that it'll take time, but it's not hopeless to be a better person. Yeonjin also find it in herself to apologies and make amends of her wrongdoing once she figures out that this part of her isn't okay in any situation or of others.

bckground. Yeonjin is the youngest of two children in a family of four consisting of a father, a mother, and an older brother. She was born in Germany due to her father's job, relocating the whole family there before her birth. Yeonjin lived in Germany until the age of eight before her mother made the decision to return to Seongnam, Gyeonggi, South Korea with the kids in tow, leaving their father to stay in Germany. Due to this, Yeonjin grew up closer to her brother than her parents, but she still loves them and knows they're just trying to keep their family together in their own way. For a while, Yeonjin felt like their relationship is weird and assumed they would just leave one another as she grew older, but surprising her parents made the long-distance relationship work out for them.

Anyway, Yeonjin never planned on being an idol or going into the entertainment business in an active way. She wanted to either become a manhwa artist or work with animation in the future. Of course her parents didn't approve and wanted her to study in a different field that seemed more promising. Her father even suggested for her to come live with him and study in Germany, too. Yeonjin thought about it as a possibility, but remained firm in wanting to study in the arts field. Even her brother helped convince their parents into allowing her to study what she wanted, saying they allowed him that freedom after he, too, persuaded them. Her parents eventually relented and allowed her to study what she wanted to study. That was until a different path appeared before Yeonjin in her second year of university.

Yeonjin just happened to accompany her friend to an audition for several companies to be a trainee for the fun of it when they went to Seoul for an outing. Yeonjin somehow ended up being scouted by a MHD Entertainment representative to come to the company and audition of sorts due to her tall height and appealing face. Yeonjin brushed it off and told the person that she wasn't interested, but her friend told her to just give it a try it out since the representative seemed persistent. Plus, her friend could brag about Yeonjin to others that she had a friend in the showbiz. Anyway, Yeonjin accepted the card and went for an audition after much preparation help from her friend and surprisingly became an official MHD Entertainment trainee after passing the audition.

THE IDOL + TRAINING. 

training history.

— Yeonjin joined MHD Entertainment in the Summer Of 2018

In the beginning it was a tough training period for Yeonjin in the idol sense. She wasn't used to this kind of schedule of waking up, practicing, slightly eating, practicing some more, breaks, more practicing until late, some sleep, and again repeating it day after day. Like, she had a similar schedule with studying or with sports, but this was a little excessive than normal. Anyway, Yeonjin could carry a tune, could dance in a sense, but not at the standard of a performer though. She kept messing up on the dance moves, even the tiniest of details, and unable to control her breathing when singing or timing the pitch and mood. Yeonjin kept forgetting many things although she could memorize school-related stuff with ease. For Yeonjin, this was nothing like attending school and studying afterwards or playing sports. This was seriously a different level of its own accord.

The idol training was seriously a roller coaster ride and Yeonjin kind of wanted to quit after like a few months because she found it just so overwhelming, but she knew that she couldn't just quit so easily after the encouragement from Seobin, Hayoun, Jaeshin, and Hanyoung. Especially from her parents eventually which made her finish this out. So, getting herself together, Yeonjin toughed it out and knew that eventually she would reach her new dream to be on stage and with the others she trained with as she wanted to see them on stage as well alongside her. Others have trained just as long as preserved, if so, then she could to and see where it all would go.

In general, to be where she needed to be of her fellow peers that had trained longer or actually dreamed of being an idol, Yeonjin practiced just as much and hard as them. She would come in earlier than the others and even stay later than them. She even asked for advice from the other trainees that were willing to give her advice and ignored the ones that weren't helpful. Yeonjin sought advice from her coaches about what she could approve on or how to go about something. Of course, she didn't like it when she was given just straight criticisms that weren't constructive at all to improved her growth in the idol world.

To be honest, Yeonjin may have gotten into a few arguments of disagreement and that made others not want to partner up with her by choice unless the coaches say otherwise. Still, upon seeing this, Yeonjin seeks out to correct her behavior and change her ways of thoughts and controlling her anger better. She knows she isn't likeable when she's angry, but luckily she has others to tell her she's nice and fun when her temper tantrums aren't getting in the way. However, her angry moments work out best to encourage others to keep fighting for their dreams or to do better when they think they don't need the push to strive better.

rElAtnshp. 

— father : Yong Daehwan / University Professor / Responsible, Analytical, Hardworking / close

Her father is a busy man with focus on work, but does his best to make time for his family despite living abroad in Germany over the years. They talked often at least twice a day, but less often nowadays when she became a trainee. She took German lessons in hopes to visit her father often and communicate with the locals whenever she visited. She also wanted to help her father to lessen his burden and guilt for staying overseas. Her father sends gifts and money as often as needed when he's not visiting when he gets the chance to. His German name is Walter.

— mother : Geum Dahye / Office Assistant / Caring, Logical, Dependable / close

Her mother has a lot of time on her hand noaways when not working as before she worked a lot to keep things going for her family as their father was out of the country. She checks up on her children and wonders what they're doing and how they're doing. Maybe because their father aren't around that she feels she has to be both for them throughout their childhood and thereafter. Yeonjin could go to her mother for almost everything and anything, but having lived with her constant supervision over time gets to you at times. Her German name is Heidi.

— brother : Yong Jaeshin ;/ Event Coordinator / Playful, Supportive, Impulsive / extremely close

Her brother also has a lot of time on his hands despite being just as busy. Has a sister complex and adores his sister a little too much. Used to chase away any of Yeonjin's suitors, hung around her whenever she went out with classmates and friends. Honestly, he was quite annoying to say the least. Still, it was tough and weird for Jaeshin to see his best friend and his little sister date, but got over it as he trusts both of them to know what they wanted. He just threatened his best friend if he hurt Yeonjin, then he better be aware of the consequences afterwards. Anyway they have the usual sibling dynamics with constant bickering, but have each other's backs if anything happens. Actually surprised she wanted to become an idol. Now, he slightly bothers her to get some tidbits about certain celebrities and how wide will her network connection be. His German name is Jacob.

— ex-boyfriend/friend : Bae Hanyoung / Event Coordinator / Reliable, Friendly, Mischievous / pretty close

Her ex-boyfriend and her brother were childhood best friends before moving to Germany and stayed in contact to even when returning to South Korea. The relationship kinda just happened and both decided to see here it would go. The relationship only lasted a little over two years as they realized that the two of them wouldn't be anything more than what they already were. So they remained as just good friends, believing the love they have for one another isn't anything really romantic, but just platonic in a more or less affectionate manner. However they continued to give the other advice and opinions on things as they've been through personal and intimate matters with one another and when she's unable to go to her parents, brothers, or even her closes friends. Hanyoung was equally just as surprised as Jaeshin about Yeonjin becoming an idol. He even teases her if she'll end up dating a celebrity now, too.

— best friend 1 : Choi Seobin ;/ Pet Groomer / Cheerful, Spontaneous, Curious / super close

Seobin's been Yeonjin's best friend since they've became neighbors and when she moved in next door to her upon coming to South Korea and the one that actually wanted to become an idol. At first, Seobin was upset, but later stated that she'll always be Yeonjin's number one fan and supporter until the end of time. Could talk about anything and everything and just be so free with one another. At one time, Seobin admitted that she had a crush on Jaeshin, but witnessing how he really is told Yeonjin that she didn't understand why she thought he was cute in the first place. Honestly thought Yeonjin and Hanyoung would last forever, but supports her friend in her new love endeavor nonetheless. Is such a fangirl that Seobin can't help, but friend the most now that Yeonjin's a part of this entertainment world. She basically ships Yeonjin with all those she interacts with out of good fun and in good-nature. Also the first one to defend her friend from antis, too.

— best friend 2 : Won Hayoun ;/ Hotel Receptionist / Warm, Reserved, Easygoing / super close

Met through Seobin during middle school. Actually, didn't like one another at first due to their differences, but eventually grew close to one another with Seobin being their peacemaker and the middle person. The two even have outings without Seobin, too, much to Seobin's shock and dismay. Anyway, Hayoun also claims to be Yeonjin's fan and will defend her from antis. Also though Jaeshin was cute, but Yeonjin actually supports the idea of them pursuing a relationship, but Hayoun's too insecure to go through with it. Also, believed that Hanyoung and Yeonjin would be forever, but supports her friend's love life in wherever it goes. Is the one that actually has to keep Seobin from going overboard in the shipping of Yeonjin and an idol.

"COULD YOU INTRODUCE YOURSELF?".

— Hi. My name is Yong Yeonjin, I'm twenty-one years old this year and I love bubble tea.

"WHAT ARE YOUR PERSONAL STRENGTHS?".

— I'm adapatable to my surroundings and with those around me. I listen well and engage easily.

"WHAT COLOR SUITS YOU?".

"WHAT'S YOUR GOAL FOR MOod ring?" .
