• She's never one to leave her camera, sketchbook, or pencil bag behind. As long as she has those, who needs a phone and wallet?
• She also loves to read everything except comic books and romantic novels. From Shakespeare to Poe, from Mark Twain to Emily Dickenson, from Suzanne Collins to James Patterson, Yun has read them all. She loves classics and poetry the most. 
• Yun's Chinese name is Yang Ai-Yun. Hence, where her nickname came from. However, she prefers that no one ever calls her that, except for her mother.
• Dancing is *obviously* her forte: ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, break dancing, popping and locking, and wait for it... all 56 Chinese ethical dances.
• Waking up is NOT her forte: poor leader has to flip her mattress every morning just to get her to open her eyes.
• Cooking is also NOT her forte: poor leader had to write a sign that barred her from the kitchen besides the fridge.
• Every year, since the day they were put into their project group, yun takes a bunch of pictures from their practices, dorm life, hang-outs, recording sessions, etc, and puts them into a scrapbook that she makes -- she always includes portraits she sketches for them in the end.
• Used to play soccer and run long distance in high school -- long spider legs actually were useful in these sports.
• Lazier than a sloth -- if she won a "lazy" award, she would make the maknae get it for her.
• Uses her sketchbook as a composition book -- all her ideas for raps, dance routines, etc, are all placed in that sketchbook.
• She's been a model since she was sixteen -- the year she became 175cm. 
• Don't talk about her height with her -- she hates being tall more than anything.
• Likes to watch horror movies at night, much to the displeasure of her roommate. 
• Lee Soo-man's biggest worry -- he loves her, but he's scared of her unpredictable nature.
• Never steal her sketchbook or camera as a prank -- you might end up duct-taped to a wall (ahem, leeteuk...)
• Do not give her alcohol... she'll go crazy.
• She is the tallest girl in her immediate family. Her bio-mom is 170cm, her bio-sister is 173cm, her half sister is 168cm, and her stepmother is 174cm.
• As flexible as fx's Victoria -- she enjoys stretching on the kitchen table at her mother's house to gross her out. Once, on Halloween, Yun wore a white sheet and pretended to be the girl from the Exorcist. Needless to say... she was grounded for the rest of her stay there.
• though she didn't debut as an idol yet, she has been a professional model since she was 16. she has walked the seoul fashion week runway since 2008 and the new york fashion week runway since 2010. yun has also done various campaigns with big band, se7en, and solo actors.

• biological father | yang jin-hyuk | 48 | official attorney for sm | freesoul, carefree, modern, relaxed, independent. | yun and her father are very close, seeing that he raised her since she was six. though she has distanced herself from her father since the divorce, yun trusts only her father with her biggest fears, insecurities, and worries. her father is also always there for her, literally, since he has worked for sm since yun was accepted.
• biological mother | li chun-wei | 48 | attorney for summit entertainment | strict, narrow-minded, cold, intimidating, stubborn. | i guess you can tell where yun inherited her personality. the only thing she gained from her father were her height and independence. yun and her mother do not get along. they argue, fight, and clash over every little thing -- what to eat, what to wear, where to go to see a movie, but most of all, her career choice. mrs. yang, well now, mrs. stephan, wanted yun to become a lawyer, but yun wanted to dance, sing, rap, and model. that's the main reason yun went with her father and dreads the weeks that she has to spend in los angeles. the two women love each other, but they don't like each other.
• stepmother | lee seo-min | 47 | owner of sweet-pea cafe in apgujeong | quiet, caring, warm, kind, awkward. | when yun's father and stepmother first married, she didn't want to distance her stepdaughter by replacing her mother. however, yun wanted her to be the mother figure of her life. in fact, yun sees her stepmother more as her mother than her biological mother. she prefers her soft-spoken personality over her mother's narrow-minded one and goes to her stepmother for all her girl troubles.
• stepfather | johnson "jack" stephan | 50 | executive producer of summit entertainment | loud, artistic, understanding, sympathetic, optimistic. | yun and her stepfather aren't that close, but she respects him for putting up with her outrageous mother. even though they don't have a lot of time to get to know each other, he supports her choice of career and is the one that sends her a new sketchbook every time she fills another one up.

• biological brother | brayden "hyun-min" yang-stephan | 18 | college freshman at uc berkeley | loud, energetic, bubbly, immature, rebellious | since they didn't grow up together, they aren't the closest of siblings, but yun loves her little brother nonetheless. he understands her and like her, dislikes his mother. they call each other about once a week and skateboard together when yun visits. 
• biological sister | vivian "soo-jin" yang-stephan | 18 | college freshman at stanford university | prim, proper, quiet, intellectual, serious | yun and her little sister are undeniably close. though they are polar opposites, they understand each other in a way only sisters do. when soo-jin went through puberty, yun was there for her in ever phone call listening to her talk about boys, complain about her friends, and whine about her parents. either way, she changed from the stereotypical girl to one who focused only on academics. she calls yun every single day just to check up on her to make sure she's resting and eating. the roles switched in their relationship -- soo-jin acts more like the older sister now.
• half sister | vanessa "ai-jin" stephan | 15 | high school sophomore | dramatic, emotional, spoiled, crazy, brat-like. | yun hates her half-sister. not because she's her half-sister, but because she's annoying as *beep* in yun's eyes. spoiled and a total wannabe, vanessa always uses her "maknae" powers to get what she wants. her other half-siblings, brayden and vivian, tolerate her, but like yun, don't want anything to do with the brat. yun asks how she is doing from soo-jin only as a formality, but other than that, she could really care less about what happens to vanessa.
• half brother | alexander "young-min" yang | 16 | high school junior | quiet, soft-spoken, warm-hearted, proper, sensitive. | yun's mischievous side comes out when it comes to her little half brother. she teases him for being so sensitive and emotional all the time, especially when they go to the movies together and he starts crying. nevertheless, she is fiercely protective of her easy-to-bully little brother. since he's so sensitive, young-min is picked on often at school, but with yun's fierce glare and intimidating height, people treated him nicer to avoid his sister's rath. however, by the time he was sixteen, he shot up to 190cm and most people are scared of him for his height anyways. he becomes a little less of a golden-boy around yun and likes to for, ironically, being "short".

• yun's maternal grandfather died before she was born. she has only two cousins -- one on her mother's side and one on her stepmother's side. yun's stepmother's mother died before yun was born and her father died when yun was seven years old. yun has never met either of jack's parents.
• maternal grandmother | xi ai-qin | 73 | ex-high school math teacher | traditional, loud-spoken, stubborn, hard-t0-please, slightly annoying. | they have a love-hate relationship. yun's grandma sees her as too "korean" and not "chinese enough". she isn't afraid to voice her dislike for her father and stepmother while constantly calling yun a "disappointment " for not being a lawyer. however, she can be very wise in her words if you listen between the lines, but yun's too annoyed with her to ever pay attention.
• fraternal grandmother | kim yoo-jin | 74 | ex-actress | fun, childlike, the "cool" one, freesoul, independent. | yun's favorite grandma. though they're different in personalities, the two women share a lot of similar dislikes -- romantic movies and yun's mother. if she needs to complain about her mother's over-bearing personality, she goes straight for her nanny. yun laughs and smiles a lot when she's with her grandmother, something that amazes most people. yun was named after her grandmother (after much debate from her mother).
• fraternal grandfather | yang hyun-min | 76 | ex-soldier/history teacher | similar to his wife: fun, childlike, empathetic, independent, easy-going. | yun and her grandfather are partners-in-crime. he loves to tell her stories about his time as a soldier in the korean war and many embarassing stories about his son. yun was given her first sketchbook from her grandfather who encouraged her love of art and dancing because it was something she loved.
• cousin | li li-hua | 28 | oncologist | intellectual, anti-social, quiet, polite, shy. | they aren't close at all. li-hua is the daughter of yun's mother's older sister. they have seen each other only three or four time in their lives. yun, however, dislikes her because she's too much of a "goody-two shoes" whereas li-hua disapproves of yun because she's too "rebellious" and a "bad influence".
• cousin | lee "seungri" seunghyun | 21 | secret teller of big bang | scary, smooth, charming, rebellious, fun-loving | wait. what?! yun and seungri are cousins? seungri is yun's stepmother's younger brother's son. most people outside of yg and sm don't know that they're related. they have a bickering sibling relationship -- she teases him, he teases her. they argue about everything and when seungri loses, he always yells "NOONA!" in an aegyo-voice, which usually makes yun smack him with her sketchbook.

​

• siwon | 25 | face of super junior | gentlemen, proper, humorous, warm-hearted, sympathetic | one of the only two people who actually cared about yun when she was a trainee. at first, yun shut him out like she did with everyone else, but since he didn't give up, she eventually let him in. he is like a protective older brother to her and has never raised his voice at her.
• tiffany | 23 | main-vocalist of snsd | preppy, feminine, hyper, kind-hearted, sometimes a bit slow | the other of the two people that befriended her when yun was alienated and bullied by the other trainees. they have a strange relationship -- yun doesn't like to talk, so she just usually listen to tiffany's endless blabbering about everything. they go shopping, more like, tiffany forces them to shop together, a lot. 

• lee hae-ri | 19 | trainee at sm entertainment | shy, awkward, timid, clumsy, adorable | yun is her dance mentor. since hae-ri has a beautiful voice but two left feet, yun was assigned as her dance mentor since she was the best in the trainee list. though yun was reluctant and frustrated with hae-ri's incompetence in dancing, they eventually shared a sweet sunbae-hoobae relationship. yun takes hae-ri to her stepmother's cafe when the two have a break.
• kim so-hee | 23 | graduate freshman at seoul national university | loud, proud, energetic, a wtf-is-wrong-with-her girl, random | yun and so-hee attended seoul national university together -- both were music majors and art minors. they bonded over cups of tea and endless sketches of buddhist temples and historical palaces for a six-month long art project in their freshman year. so-hee occasionally brings lunch to yun at sm entertainment. so-hee is one of the two people that yun befriended in college.
• won jong-jin | 24 | graduate sophomore at seoul national university/model | quiet, mysterious, sarcastic, witty, diva-like | the gay, but not gay best friend that every girl should have. he's straight in ual orientation, but yun questions is at times. jong-jin is a well known ulzzang and also an art-minor, but a business-major. he's very straightfoward and isn't afraid to insult yun. he was the only other person yun befriended in college.

• kim hyo-yeon | 23 | main-dancer of snsd | strong, stubborn, fierce, hilarious, straightfoward. | they aren't the "i hate your guts" type of rivals. being two of sm's best female dancers, they are constantly compared because of their similar dancing styles. yun sees her as a friend but more as a sunbae she goes to for dancing advice.
• victoria song | 25 | main-dancer/leader of fx | cute, awkward, motherly, optimistic, friendly. | similar to yun and hyoyeon, they don't hate each other, but see each other as competition since they both have chinese roots, are great dancers, and are both flexible enough to touch their toes in the opposite direction.

• bora | 22 | main-dancer/main-rapper of sistar | independent, strong, competitive, easy to provoke, loud. | how do i put this? they hate, no scratch that, loathe, scratch that, despise... okay, they wouldn't care if the other died since they would probably be the one killing the other. hate isn't even a strong enough word for them. since they're both athletic, great dancers, great rappers, tall, and beautiful, it's like a warhouse when they're compared. ever since yun beat bora in the sprinting competition at idol sports championships, it's like world war iii whenever they meet each other without cameras near.
