fashion style — Her style is unpredictable but mostly she's more to a punk goth. She wears lace mini skirts (Yes she wears skirts) and black shirt, boots and knee socks are her favourite, accessories are sacred. And yes, she loves everything black, red and purple. Sometimes she uses mouth mask and it resulting of people being more scared of her than before because of her intense glare. It's like she's out from a manga or something. But sometimes she also like sweaters and jumpers, usually when she's at dorm or when she's too lazy to dress. She wears a traditional kimono and yukata for formal attire

You, you, you, Its all about you

plotline — YG's Back-Up Dancer

traits — Composed, Hardworker, Emotionally Strong and Quick | Too Serious, Intimidating, Territorial and Solitude

personality

Composed and Hardworker; Mio’s most well known personality is that she’s a very calm person. She always has her own situation under her control, never let her own emotions get in the way of her thinking or judgment. It’s impossible to get her panicked or nerve-wrecked in any way except if the problem is critical and important to her. Even if her surroundings are like a mad house full of people screaming and such, she’ll stay on her foot while observing her surrounding. When she made a mistake at stage, she doesn’t suddenly freeze or flustered. She just moves on with the others and tries to not make the same mistakes. Sometimes she takes personal notes on her mistakes she makes and learns it again. And this leads to her other personality. Mio is a hard worker and doesn’t give up easily. If there’s a new choreography to learn, she always stays up late to remember all the moves before perfecting it the next day. Her first priority is always to remember the choreography and she needs to do it fast. After she remembers all the movement, she perfects it with the right amount of energy and feeling. Like stated earlier, she always makes personal notes on where she always makes the same mistakes or when she doesn’t get the movement. She’ll keep doing the same movement over and over again until she’s satisfied with the results then moving on to her next mistake. Although she has a longer year experience in dancing, she’s not perfect, sometimes she makes mistakes too

Emotionally Strong and Quick; One thing for sure is that you’ll never see Mio tear up easily. Seriously, this woman has a heart of a rock. She only accept the real critics that actually motivate her while the plain rude and childish comment, she ignores. Even if you spat on her and call her names, she’ll only stare at you with her stoic face and said ‘Okay’ or ‘Are you done?’. Then she’ll ask you the reason why you would spat on her and such or did she do something wrong that made you do it. She’s not the kind of person who takes grudges that easy, it will need a strong impact and effect on her to make her actually mad. Because she’s always upset with everything. If it’s happy tears, maybe you’ll see her eyes a bit glassy and such but she never really cried in front of everybody. The people that seen her cry are her parents (Duh), her lover and her fellow Empress crew. Moving on, Mio is a quick person. And by quick meaning she’s prompt to understand, think and learn. In other words, she’s hella smart. For example; if there’s a new choreography that she have to learn but she could not learn it that day for some reason (Sick, family business, etc), then the next day when she’s able to learn the choreography she could just grasp a few movement that she could understand before finally learning the whole movement. She’s a quick learner and she won’t rest until she understands the whole thing. As the leader of Empress and the senior dancer, it’s easy for her to spot other people’s physical mistakes (Foot work, Sudden freezing, etc). She’ll be strict if somebody made a mistake, like yelling at them if they do not understand the same movement over and over again. But in the end, she’ll help them with the move

Too Serious and Intimidating; Mio is the person you wouldn’t want to have to share jokes with, because she could never take the joke as a ‘not-serious’ thing. She knows sarcasm but she never understands a joke. It will take her a while to understand a joke but her reaction will still be the same, she won’t even exclaim ‘Oh!’ when she found out about the joke. As if there’s no kind of joke in this world that could make her laugh (Except if the joke is actually human, then it’s ‘God’s greatest joke ever’ as she said it). It’s not easy to make her let loose and relax, she’s always alert and vigilant. Only a few people can actually do that, the people that influenced and take a big role in her life. That’s why when in private parties, she usually just sits and observe. Which connects to her next negative personality. Mio is (As you can see) an intimidating person by her looks and by her personality. She could just make you feel threatened and fear her when she just plainly staring at you. It makes you feels like her stare burns towards your soul and as if a devil rises behind her. Mio is not a naturally nice person when meeting a stranger, she could just staaaareeeeeeeee and if you ask her something, her words are somehow icy and cold. Most of the people would want to stay away from her because of this and because of her strict personality at the dance studio

 

background —

The Simple But Fun Past; Mio was born as a dancer from the start. And her inspiration is her ballerina mother who danced gracefully everytime she performs at the stage. Mio started to dance when she reached the age 5 as soon as she saw her mother dance, she had taken the course of ballet. She learned from her mother’s own dance studio where her mother is her own tutor. Then when Mio is at the age of 10, her mother transferred her from her normal school to Japan’s most famous dance school, EXILE. From there, she learned many things about dancing and she’s able to master many dancing genres. At the age of 15, she entered EXPG (Exile Professional Gymnastic) and EGD (Exile Girls Dancer) as one of the senior dancers. At the same time, her own cousin Himawari joins as part of EGD’s Junior Dancers. Mio has experienced many victory and losses around the time she joined national competitions. After she joined the international competition, then she knows how it feels like to win because she took part of making the choreography of the dance. Back to Japan, she became a young choreographer and a major senior dancer. She got featured on the company’s E-Girls PVs

 

The Challenging Present; At the age of 19 year 2008 she was suddenly going to be transferred to Korea as a choreographer and a back-up dancer for she is one of the major seniors and she deserve a larger work field. She was not fond at the idea at first because she’s going to get separated from her mother, but knowing that her mother is a strong woman and her cousin Himawari (Who’s now a major senior with her) is going to come with her, she follows her agency’s wish. She had gone to YG Ent., the company that scouted her and Himawari. Mio’s taciturn personality had became worse because she doesn’t know anything at first, then she met Eunmin and Jineun who became her best friend also Chaerin, who’ll be part of 2NE1 in the next following year. Mio took part in the promotions of ‘I Don’t Care’ and then became one of YG’s best dancers. She got featured in most of YG’s artists music video and live performance, including Big Bang, 2NE1, Tablo and others. 2010, Empress was made with the members of her as the leader, Eunmin as the co-leader, Himawari and the youngest Jineun. Along that time, she also met her lover and now her fiancé. At 2011, Mio became famous as the androgynous dancer and now known as ‘Takahata’. Surprisingly, Mio also took part in ‘Come Back Home’ as she became a guy once more in the form of dancing

The people that have given me unchanging love and courage

family — 

— Father | Suzuya Takahata | 61 | Doctor | Fun, Playful and Caring |Both of them has a peaceful father & daughter relationship. Although her father doesn't seem to be very fond of her stoic & cold personality towards other, so he might still scold  

— Mother | Ami Takahata | 58 | Former Dancer, Housewife | Elegant, Loving and Quier | It is true when somebody said that a mother is a girls best friend. Mio's mother really understands her & can read her like a book, obviously she's more attached to her Mio than her own husband to Mio

— Cousin | Himawari Futaba | 22 | Part of Empress | Brave, Prideful & Hot-Blooded |Himawari is the 3rd member of Empress and the 'Power' of Empress. Obviously it's related to her personality. Hiwamari is always easy to provocate and agressive to people. That's when Mio come in, Mio is always there to calm her baby cousin down. They are the complete opposite, but that's why they are very close

Its a rope that bonded us together

friends  

— Best Friend | Shim Eun Min | 23 | Co-Leader of Empress |Most of the time cold, Taciturn, Cute |They are the closest one in Empress. Hell they're both really similar to each other, although maybe Mio is not as cold as Eunmin and Eunmin is not as scary as Mio. Mio and Eunmi are the makers of Empress, they had been close since the first day they met at the dance studio. Both of them are talkative around each other but grew silent when there's other people (Other than the crew of Empress). They let their inner self out around each other, just to show an outer shell of theirs around others | They met at YG's dance studio and they are told to be seperated into groups. Mio and Eunmin are together with a few other people. Tehy both stayed silent as the other people talked about what they must plan for their dance. Mio and Eunmin ended up talking to each other about their ideas for the dance and surprisingly they clicked. Yes, they just actually clicked and it's a scary thing for their surroundings |  

— Friend | Lee Chae Rin / CL | 23 | Idol (2NE1) | Traits (3) | Chaerin treats her like Mio is her daughter. She worries about her & always contact her when Mio's not at Korea, making sure she's okay. Chaerin even called her 'my daughter~' all the time even though Mio is older than Chaerin. She clings to Mio all the time, it's like she's biased of Mio  | They meet when Mio was first got in to YG. Chaerin was curious on the looks of their new member of dancers and an exceptionally young choreographer. When Chaerin first saw her, she thought Mio was a guy and thus treated her like a guy at first. This caused Mio to be confused at the way Chaerin acts around Mio |  

— Friend | Park Jin Eun | 19 | Part of Empress |Traits (3) |Jineun is the youngest of Empress and the 2nd closest one to Mio. She has gone dancing course since Mio moved to Korea. Although being her junior, Mio managed to befriended her after a period of months because she was feared by others. Her reputation of being an outsider and a scary yet talented student are usually despised but not for Jineun. She finds Mio a tad scary of course, but she can see that Mio is indeed kind. Jineun tries her best to understand Mio's uniqueness and Mio herself is on the progress to open up to Jineun unlike others. Later on, Mio asked her to be part of Empress | Jineun actually met her by admiring Mio from afar when she saw Mio dance. She want to greet her but she was a little afraid. Until Mio found out Jineun is looking at Mio dance and their eyes contacted. Jineun immediately ran away and prepare herself for tomorrow, because she wants to actually make friends with the Lion Goddess | 

Lovey dovey Dovey oh oh~ 

love interest — Jung Jun Tae / Juntae

backup love interest — He's an OC

 

personality — 

Cold But Playful; Juntae is usually described as a cold guy because of his quiet and mysterious attire. Juntae is a famous author and novelist that majors around romance and action. He's always seen to be sitting calmly at the park's bench while reading a book, overloading with charisma. And he has a lot of fans because of his...well...face. But Juntae is actually a really fun guy to be with, he's just a bit awkward to start a conversation with. When you actually made friends with him, he'll be really cheeky, talkative and playful. He likes to be the loud one of the gang and the one that gains many many attention from other people. That's why he's so weird an unpredictable, that's his charm

Only with Mio; A real life cheesy byuntae, that describes who he is when he's around Mio. He's actually the perfect description for a mix of the ideal boyfriend and the creepy stalker. He would actually literally stalk her when she's at work and he misses her. He's also fond to send some cheesy messages and neer be bored to tell her how much he loves her every single day. Many people had been asking her how the hell she kept up with him for such a long time, isn't he annoying her? She just shrugged and said 'That's what I call Love'

relationship — 

Ramen is what got them together and mutual conversation and honest confession is what made them engaged to each other. They've been together for 4 years so their bond are strong. He loves Mio so much that he became possesive, protective & control-freak over her. He's also a little bit obssesed with her. He must know where she is, what she does, who she's with & it continues but Mio never seem to complain. He always teases Mio, skinships with her & he always smiles & pinch her cheeks when she's having that dead expression on her face. But Mio doesn't feel annoyed, she's pretty comfortable with him. She allows him to kiss her, hugs her tightly, calls her 'Ramen Baby~', sleeps on her lap & cuddle with her, even at the public. They do bicker a lot but it always ends up with a laugh (or in this case, Juntae is laughing & Mio is SMILING) because they can't really got mad with each other

i Hope you make it!
