Personality: Taeksoo as first is seen as a quiet, shy and timid girl, but as you get to know her she could be just as funny annoying as Ken. She shy around new people and when she's on camera (except for performances). Taeksoo, shares a lot of traits similar to her older brother Taekwoon. She's pretty much quiet, but she's sharp. She notices things that others don't, since she takes time to analyze the situations around her.  She's not one to show emotions easily or freely like the rest of her band mates, but she's opened up to them a lot, now she even starts conversations. Before she couldn't stand people touching her without her permission, but now she can handle being hugged suddenly by them. She likes skin-ship since that is the way for her to show her affections beside speaking. She like her brother is a soft spoken person, she rarely raises her voice to anyone.

Though she's quiet most of the time, she really cares a lot for the members and is trying to be more out spoken on camera, though it's not easy. Though she too has her moments when she can let herself go. When she sees children and animals she completely forgets everything and plays with them. She doesn't care what others think of her then she does what she wants. But when she's with her brother, they both change in a way. Taeksoo becomes a person who loves to hug and talk and smile, even laugh! The same happens to Leo too. She's also very strong and competitive, but it doesn't show all that much, so everytime people see her strength, they are always surprised.

She's also very protective of the people she cares the most about, like a lioness with her cubs. She will voice it if people get on her nerves as a warning and if the person still hasn't backed off she will back them off personally. On camera she very much like Leo then too. She's shy to show of what she got and when she laughes she hides her face in a way so that it's not shown, at all. But in all honesty, she's more comfortable with acting. 'Cause then she can let herself go and be someone completely different. Taeksoo thinks it's fun to be a different person, and it's also a way for her to explore the different sides of herself through acting.

Taeksoo is especially serious when she's training. Then she won't look at anything else and just focus on her singing and dancing. Sometimes she even forget's to eat, which has caused her to be sick a few times. One day when she was training, the rest of the trainees had a joint training. They all learned the same choreography and were to perform it in front of the CEO, VIXX, Seo In Guk, Sung Si Kyung and the other people having a contract with Jellyfish. Then she was so serious in getting the choreography right that she forgot to eat and only drank water. Then when she danced she was so nervous and she was dizzy, but she still managed to dance until it was done. Everyone applauded and Taeksoo out. She's also a perfectionist. She will be so focused on getting everything right, so she will forget to take care of her own body. That is her biggest flaw.

When Taeksoo is on stage, she's emits y charisma and she does her best until the end. Off stage, she then lays down in the nearest couch and sleeps until they have to go. On camera, she's like her brother she doesn't show much emotions or reactions unless it deserves it (in her eyes). She's very camera-shy and she, like her brother hides her face when she laughs or smiles. Off camera she's as stated above.

Background: Before Taeksoo was born her birth father Jung Taejin, had been in China on a buisness trip to expand his company. On his first day, he got lost on the way to the hotel he was staying in. But luckily a woman who knew the basics of Korean found him and helped him back to the hotel. He wanted to thank her and so he got her number. He called her and they had a great time together, but Taejin had fallen for the woman who's name was Bao Xinzin. They had both fallen for each other and they went out together a lot. Then one night they made love and that's how Taeksoo came to be. They had a lot of talk that if Xinzin was pregnant and it was a girl they mad a promise to name her Taeksoo and if it was a boy, Taemin.

But when Taeksoo was born, Taejin wasn't anywhere near her or Xinzin at all. Xinzin had chased Taejin away without letting him know that she was pregnant with Taeksoo. She had got to know that Taejin ws already a married man with three daughters and one son. Xinzin was upset and angry and she chased him out of the house. She never saw him again and 6 months later she had Taeksoo. Xinzin always thought about the promise she made with Taejin and decided to stick with it, thus her name Taeksoo. As Taeksoo grew up she was used to having just her mother, but sometimes she would get curious and ask about her father, but Xinzin would change the subject or completely ignore she asked about him. But they had enough with each other and they loved each other. But Taeksoo was still lonley. That she had a mother and not a father had her bullied in school. In China it's frowned upon to have a child out of wedlock(?) and be a lone mother. 

She tried telling the teachers about the bullying, but they wouldn't do anything about it, so Taeksoo started to become selective mute. Only talking to her mother or her friends, but she started getting interested in music and dance. So she started learning guitar and violin, but she also learned ballet which she developed to learning sword dancing (will be exlpained later). As she got older she applied for Beijing's Ballet Academy and she got in. BBA is one of the hardest schools to get into, but she got in with a full scholarship and she did really well. As a reward for doing so great at both music and dance Xinzin took Taeksoo out with her to a pet store, there Taeksoo could have any pet she would like. And she chose a Siberian Husky whom she named Zhen, when he was a puppy i looked like this, but as he was fully grown he now looks like this.

When BBA one day had a dance performance Jellyfish CEO Hwang Saejun was there on a vacation and decided to watch it for fun. But as he watched the performance he fell for the passion and the hard work that was shown through Taeksoo's dance. You could say he was captivated and he knew he had to make her a trainee under his company before anyone else did. That urge only intensified when he saw her dancng with swords! So when the show was over and done with he went to see if he could talk with her. He found her and Taeksoo was with her mother Xinzin, she still knew a little Korean so she spoke with Saejun about the matter. Xinzin didn't want Taeksoo to go to Korea without reassurance that she would be okay there, so she had to take Zhen with her. Saejun didn't mind and let Taeksoo have a place of her own until she would have to move into a dorm, Zhen would go with her then too.

When she got to Korea Saejun assigned a Korean teacher to her so she could learn the language and the customs. Later she would be introduced to the rest of the workers at the company, including the other trainees and VIXX. When the introduction was done with Taeksoo was called in to Saejun's office. He had noticed similarities between her and VIXX's Leo. Taeksoo didin't know of that so they called Xinzin and had her come to Korea. Then the truth came out about Xinzin and Taejin. It turns out that Leo was Taejin's son and Xinzin requested to meet with Taejin and talk.

Talk they did, the rest of the Jung family was there too and they couldn't believe it. Taejin's wife Minhee and their daughters Jinhee, Minjae and Saehee didn't want to have anything to do with either Taeksoo or Xinzin, but Leo. He decided to give them a chance. He was more open minded than the rest of his family. He even said he could help Taeksoo get better in her Korean. During those times Leo and Taeksoo had gotten to know each other well. Now it seems like they have known each other since birth, and the fact that Taeksoo is Leo's younger sister has made him protective of her. He would protect her from the hated looks from his family (exept from Taejin) and the curious questions and glances from s and everyone else. To Leo it didn't matter that Taeksoo was just his half sister. "A sister is a sister, no matter how you look at it," he once said to her. Now she lives close to his dorm (in the same apartment complex) so if there is anything he's just a few minutes away. He also likes to play with Zhen. Zhen has taken a liking to Leo and doesn't mind him, but he's still wary of the rest of VIXX who has also become closer to Taeksoo through Leo. Now everything is going well and Taeksoo's Korean is getting better, but she still has a little accent slipping through from time to time.

Life now/ The Present: Now she lives in a drom with the girls (who chose to live in the dorm), a couple of doors away from VIXX's dorm. Taeksoo would like to live the closest to Leo as she could, so if she needed him for anything he would be close. A part from training to be an idol (and later debuting), she chose to work part time at a café a couple of block's away from the apartment complex. The freinds and co-workers in the company don't understand why she would work there as she is about to debut. She just answered that it was a way for her to relax without worrying about the idol life. Her dog Zhen lives with her in the dorm. He's very smart and well behaved and he listens well to his mistress.

Style: She likes to wear comfortable clothings, but at the same time they are stylish. She's self conscious about her body and doesn't think it's pretty so she's not comfortable with too revealing clothings. A skirt for exmple, she would prefer the length to be to right above her knees or to the middle of her legs. A shirt she would like it to be to the hem of the pants (if you catch what I mean?). She can wear high heels, but not too high, and she's more comfortable with wedges type shoes. She can wear revealing clothing, but she will not voice it if she's uncomfortable. She's afraid she'll get scolded for not wearignthe clothings assigned to her. She also would feel bad since the clothings were put together for her. She loves the color black so the most clothes she has in her closet is black. She has sorted the black/gray clothes in one part and the 'colors' on the other part (She's pretty much alike to Infinite's L, he also loves the color black). When she was youger she used boys clothes to hide her body, since she was self consious and some of that has followed her to the present time. But she only used those kinds of clothes while she trains (occationly) and as airport fashion (mostly).

Love Interest: Cha Hakyeon

Age: 23

Group: VIXX

Personality: Hakyeon in the talkative, umma-like leader of VIXX. He can talk non-stop about anything and he's very passionate about what he does. Though Hakyeon is the leader, he sometimes 'abuses' the power that comes with being a leader. He orders the members around so he can just sit and 'support' them in their work. But Hakyeon is very passionate when it comes to VIXX generally. He takes great care of the members and he loves them all. Hakyeon is a caring individual and he would do mostly anything to make the people he care about happy. He's rarely seen directly angry, the most people have seen him is when he's irritated, then he would act as if he was angry with he's trademark -please-face. He's all smiley and happy almost all the time. He's pretty open and has helped both of the Jung siblings in openig up more.

How they met: They met each other officially when Leo introduced her as his younger sister, which was some time after the release of Brian Joo's Let This Die MV. Hakyeon and Ravi didn't remember her until Leo said who she was: that she acted in that music video with them.

How do you interact?: Hakyeon is really careful and protective when it comes to Taeksoo. You wouldn't think that when they watch horror movies together, then you wonder who's wearing the pants in the relationship. Though they are together, Taeksoo is still pretty insecure about it. Since Hakyeon is a well respected idol with lots of fans. She worries a lot for him. Hakyeon on the other hand encourages and says that she doesn't have to worry. All in all, they are a 'new' but sweet couple. Since neither have any experience as 'real' couples. They take things slow, for Taeksoo's sake, but they do a lot of fun things together.

Relationship?: Hakyeon has plans to ask her out, but he decided to be old-fashioned and talk about it with Leo. Taeksoo's OVER PROTECTIVE older brother. Taeksoo has a crush on Hakyeon.

 

Stagename: Lea

Persona: Momma Lion (Lioness)

Trainee history: As she was the youngest trainee, at the time, people took it easy on her and she only focused on teaching her the basics of the Korean language. At that time she just started there as a trainee and no one knew of her relation to Leo yet. When she was 14 the relation between her and Leo came out and since he was one of the best trainees and so people had high expectations of her. Some teachers pushed her to the max and she was pretty worn out after each session. She tried telling them that Leo was Leo and she was herself. She wasn't like Leo, Leo was a vocal and she was a dancer. She couldn't understand why the teachers couldn't see that.

She wanted to be a better vocalist, but the more she was pushed the harder it was for her to concentrate on her singing. Saejun saw that and asigned Leo himslf to help her. Leo knew what she was having a hard time with and helped her with that. Of course he was strict, but he was fair and when he saw that Taeksoo was having a hard time they took a break and did something else. "Too much of one thing is bad for you," he said to her. When she was 16 she had gotten a lot better with her Korean and her singing was as good as it could get, but now it was time to learn dance, hip hop dance. The only form for dance Taeksoo knew was ballett and sword dancing. Both of them are the more slow, sofisticated and graceful type of dance. Hip hop on the other hand, are more tough, fast and powerful. To Taeksoo it was a hard time learning a whole knew genre which was so foreign to her. But she already knew the rythm and the basics for hip hop since their roots are from both ballett and jazz dance genre. It was a lot easier and a lot more fun to learn dance than singing. 

But then again, she still had some problems with her singing and since her dancing was on pair with the best she focused more on her singing. Leo still continued to teach her all that he knew. When that was done, she had to explore her vocal ranges and her voice entirely, by herself. To find her own voice. It was hard, but she managed. She has trained for a total of 6 years in Jellyfish.

Vocal twin: SISTAR - Hyorin

Dance twin: SISTAR - Hyorin

Rap twin: f(x) - Amber

How the public views you: The public views her like they view her brother, Leo. She's so similar to him it's almlost scary, but that way you can also see the sibling-resemblace. She comes off as a chick-cold-city girl, but she, like Leo are just camera-shy, but Taeksoo is working on it.

Other activities: Acting

How would you like your character to be introduced?: I would like her to be introduced when she practices her ballet. Like they sneak up on her and film her while hiding. I would also like it for Hakyeon and Leo to be the ones "filming" her dancing.
