You can hear an accent when Mirae speaks English

APPEARENCE.
[The 24 year old deity...] Mirae has brown eyes. Mirae usually uses contact lenses to conceal the brown in her eye. She usually wears black contacts. Mirae has long legs. Mirae's skin is considered really pale for a born and raised Gwangju girl. She inherited her pale skin from her mother. Mirae's lips are usually a light pink color. She usually wears lip tint. Most people suspect that Mirae got plastic surgery on her eyes and nose. That is false because Mirae has never thought of plastic surgery before. She never had a strong desire to change her face. 
STYLE.
     
[A 24 year old trying to be a 17 year old...Holy crap] Mirae dresses a bit younger than her actual age group. Mirae usually dresses casual. She loves sweaters paired up with jeggings or leggings. If people her age like to wear high heels, she wears Vans, Converse, and Airwalk. Any kind of sneakers will have her going crazy. Mirae also likes bright colors.  The colors in her wardrobe are usually bright or just plain white. Mirae also likes dresses. She prefers short dresses rather than long dresses. Short dresses are easier to wear. Mirae also likes skirts. Not the office skirts, but the jeans skirt or denim skirts. Mirae also likes t-shirts. She likes to mix and match. 
[She surely is an Etude fanatic...] For makeup, Mirae likes to take it simple. Mirae usually uses light pink colored products to create a natural look. Mirae usually uses only a few layers of makeup because she is more strict with her skincare. Mirae uses Etude House products almost everyday. But in her makeup collection, Mirae has a few products from Innisfree, The Face Shop, and Tony Moly. Which product Mirae uses depends on what Mirae wants to wear. Mirae usually starts with a primer. Mirae usually starts off with a layer of Moistfull Super Collagen CC Cream. Later in the day, after she finishes practice and wants to refreshen her face, Mirae would apply  a layer of Moment Very Good BB Cream from Etude House. She will gently rub the BB Cream all over her face to make sure she gets good coverage. Afterwards, Mirae would apply a few touches of Lovely Cookie Blusher from Etude House. Mirae would use the Blusher #6 color since it's a light pink color. For her lips, Mirae likes to keep it simple so that she looks natural. She wears Etude House's Color Lips-fit #PK001 because that's the lightest color that comes close to light pink. If she feels like it, Mirae would replace her usual liquid lipstick and use lip tint. She usually uses Etude House's Rosy Tint Lips #05. She chose that color because the color is a slightly light pink. Moving on to her eyes, Mirae doesn't like to apply eyeliner. She would only need eye shadow and mascara. From Etude House, she uses the Look At My Eyes #1. The palette she uses varies from her mood. She usually uses the Look At My Eyes (14.04) #4 from the #1 line. Mirae uses mascara only when she's out with friends or out spending some time by herself. The mascara she worships is Etude House's Lash Perm Proof Mascara because it is waterproof. That waterproof mascara comes in handy when she's sweaty and she wants to apply some mascara.
[Ahjumma! Tell me the your secret to perfect skin!] For actual skincare, Mirae (again) loves Etude House for their wide range of products. Mirae just loves to apply skincare after stripping her makeup. Mirae usually applies Etude House's Moistfull White Cream. Mirae also uses the Pearl Aura Brightening Essence if she doesn't want to feel cream applied on her face.Mirae also has Collage Eye Patches to put under her eye to try and reduce the dark circles forming under her eye due to lack of sleep. She also has the Royal Class Gel Mask Sheet. For eyecare, Mirae has her trusty Eye's Cream Mint Cooling from Etude House.

"You can always change what's on the outside, but what's on the inside stays the same." - Jung Mirae
PERSONALITY TRAITS. imaginative, observant, caring, Introverted, unhumorous, alexithymia
PERSONALITY.
— [I thought that 24 year olds have no imagination whatsoever...] Mirae has a wide imagination. Mirae is a really imaginative person. She has a wide imagination, should we say? Her imagination gets her far. Whenever she's writing a story, she can always describe the situation in detail so when you read it, you can fully imagine the scene. Whenever she's told to describe something, she can describe it until the very last detail. Whenever she's writing a song, she can make the lyrics really emotional and meaningful. She's a very emotional and poetical person so that does make sense. She can be considered a romantic because of her wide imagination, she thinks that love in real life is almost the same as love in books and fanfictions. She has very high expectations for love. 
— [Those sharp eyes, dayum...] Mirae's attention to detail is really spot on. She won't miss a thing. Mirae's eyes are sharps as a hawk's. Her eyes like to observe other people. She takes a mental note of everything she sees. When Mirae's observing someone, she only pay attention to that person. When she feels her eyes tensing up, she then proceeds to anayze the person's behaviour. Once Mirae reaches to a conclusion, she can use the person's weakness to her advantage. By "conclusion", it's a small summary of the person. Their habits, their weaknesses, their advantages, their triggers, and their way of thinking. Mirae usually acts with caution since she knows these things. She also knows how that person can act as a friend or as a lover. It's like Mirae can come up with a summary of that person just from observing them.
— [She's the oldest for the reason, fam...] Mirae has a motherly side to her. She likes to take care of those older and younger than her. She has a sense of respect and admiration for those older than her. Being one of the oldest means that Mirae has to take care of the younger members. But it's not all that bad since Mirae enjoys things like that. As an eonni, Mirae will never let anyone hurt her friends or her dongsaengs. Mirae will be there for her dongsaeng. Mirae likes to comfort her dongsaeng whenever they're sad. Mirae will always be the shield that bounces off all bad things from her dongsaeng.
— [You would've never expected that, would you?] Mirae is an introvert. You might not expect Mirae to be an introvert due to her seemingly approachable and friendly exterior. Well, don't be fooled by her. She's someone who thinks or judges things from a negative point of view than the positive side. By seeing the negative side, Mirae learns her mistakes and flaws. She keeps in mind what her mistakes and flaws are and will tend to ask her friends questions like "Is it true that I'm quiet?" or "Is it true that people think I'm anti-social?". The other trainees used to call her names, mostly names like "Anti-social", "freak", or "alien". Whenever she hears these things, Mirae's heart starts to grow smaller. You see, Mirae always says to her friends that she hates it when people call her names because Mirae herself knows her flaws and she certainly hates it when people rub her flaws or mistakes in her face. Not everyone has the patience to withstand it.
— [Mirae's second surprise is...] Mirae's sense of humor isn't really very polished. Due to her low self esteem and her inability to build up some self confidence, Mirae has a hard time making jokes. She prefers to six back, relax, and observe the noise happening around her. Mirae's variety sense can be concluded to a "2 out of 10". If told to be comedical, she will tend to make awkward puns or joke that doesn't make any sense. Well, that's even ifshe's told to. Nevertheless, all this ended up being another reason why Mirae is teased or made fun of at school. People see her as many things, but they oftenly view her as "The Awkward Wallflower". She doesn't really have a sense of humor to back her up during variety shows or comedy acts. She just doesn't have that "sense" some people have.
— [Moving to her last surprise for you...] Mirae has problem expressing her feelings. Mirae doesn't really know how to say what she wants to say. Mirae always has trouble with timing. Mirae doesn't know when she should say something. Whenever Mirae wants to express her feelings, nobody was there to listen to her. Mirae ends up saving all her problems in her heart. Mirae is someone who thinks about her problems over and over until they get to the point where they are stressed thinking about it. In conclusion, Mirae was never good in expressing her emotions or feelings. However, Mirae found a way to express them and let them out in music.
— [So there's two Jung Miraes? Or is it...Ah, i don't know.] Mirae is a bit different when she's in front of a camera or on a stage. Seri hides her introverted and alexithymia personality because her company views it as a hindrance for the group. Miae will only let her introverted side out off camera or in the dorm. So don't be shocked if you find out that Jung Mirae and Jungmi are totally two different people. You might think that Mirae's two personalities are contradicting. Well, yes. Mirae had once admitted that she has two contradicting personalities. Mirae is usually a dark and introverted person while Jungmi is a happy and cheerful person. Mirae becomes a burst of energy on stage, unlike her seemingly introverted off stage. Seri tends to smile more during her time on stage. She tends to act more friendlier and cheerful. There are also times when she puts on a sad face or a charismatic facial expression. It depends on the song because she can't always put on a smile but she can't always frown either, she's a human being too. But to be fair enough, it's because Iseul has really good acting skills. Though she doesn't have the "variety sense", she does have the "actress sense". She can easily make it as a soloist and actress. She also makes a killer singer-songwriter.

BACKGROUND. 
— [The beginning of a wonderful soul's life] Jung Mirae or better known as "Jungmi" was born during a winter morning on 10th October 1990 in Nam-Gu, Gwangju, South Korea. It was about 07 o'clock in the morning when Mirae was born. It took about 3 hours to thoroughly welcome Mirae  to the world. During this time, the father (Jung Dongwook) was there to welcome his first child into the world. Lucky day for the father as he had gotten permission from the office 2-3 days prior to Mirae's birth to be excused so that he can welcome his new child on time. It was also because he was worried he wouldn't make it as the father had horrible time management skills, not to mention bad multitasking skills.
— [Are you a lost child, Jung Mirae?] Mirae spent most of her childhood with a piano or in front of a desk. Mirae has always been the songwriter of the family. Mirae had always been familiar with musical notes and she has been taking guitar lessons since who-knows-how-long. Mirae had been put into dancing lessons and piano lessons since a very young age. The reason behind this was because her parents saw Seri's hidden talent in music. Both parents wanted to set a path for Mirae's future so that Mirae can have a something to back her up. It was okay for both parents to see Mirae pursue music, unlike most parents who expected doctors or lawyers. The parents had saw the same time in Mirae's little brother but they had put him in dance lessons instead of piano. 
— [What a study freak...lol, jk.] Mirae had always studied, even if there isn't any tests. Mirae doesn't speak with a Gwangju dialect but with a Seoul dialect. There's also the fact that she likes to practice the Seoul dialect in front of a mirror. Mirae was exposed to the Seoul dialect from her mother. Her mother used to be a born-and-raised Seoul resident before marrying her father. Her mother had told her that the Seoul dialect was more polite and formal. Back to her school life, Mirae has always been in the Top 3 of her class. This proves that even if you're an awkward turtle or a wallflower, you can still get good grades. Mirae felt like if she couldn't make any friends at school, she had to at least have good grades. 
— [Congrats! You're a noona now!] It was in February 18th, 1994 that Mirae had been given a younger sibling. It was a boy, on top of that. Her mother named Mirae's younger brother "Hoseok". Growing up, the Jung siblings had a special bond with one another. Since Mirae was Hoseok's noona, Mirae had always been told to take care of her brother well despite the 4 year difference. And oh, she took care of him alright. Unlike Hoseok, Mirae was a bit more negative and introverted. Hoseok was more spontaneous and cheerful. These two siblings are similiar despite having different personalities. They had both dreamt of being a singer.
— [Dear family...] Though Mirae had been the introverted one among the Jung family, her family loved her still. Mirae had always been an obidient daugther that didn't feel the need to oppose her parents because she doesn't really have the confidence to and because she thought that she owed a huge debt to her parents who raised her to be who she is now. It was also her brother. He's always been such a nice dongsaeng to Mirae. He had always stood up for her whenever she needed it. He had worried about her wellbeing a lot. 
— [I'll show you...] Mirae has always been teased by other people for things she doesn't understand. Mirae's always been called names like "Freak", "anti social", "wallflower", or "nerd". Whenever she hears things like that, Mirae's heart starts to grow smaller. You see, Mirae always says to her friends and brother that she hates it when people call her names because Mirae herself knows her flaws and she certainly hates it when people rub her flaws or mistakes in her face. Not everyone has the patience to withstand it. However, the pain started to ease away when her brother suggested that "she shook the pain away with music". After that, Mirae had threw herself in her studies, songwriting, and guitar playing. With songwriting, Mirae poured out all her feelings. Some of her music sheets have tear stains because of this. When she's playing the guitar, she thinks about her brother. That always made her heart feel better. 
— [Goodbye, my beautiful butterly...] Mirae had moved to Seoul to get or to receive better education. Mirae had been given permission from their parents to go to Seoul and pursue a better education. Luckily for Mirae, she had transferred from her old school to a better school. Mirae had lived at her aunt's house during this time. So, Mirae ended up auditioning for Big Hit in 2010. Why Big Hit? Because Mirae had heard that Big Hit was a new company and was looking for trainees. Mirae had auditioned a month before her brother did. Mirae stayed in Big Hit for 2 years before being transferred to newly founded and established Miss Records.

don't forget me!

    
"Everyday, I fall in love with you more and more..." - Kim Seokjin
LOVE INTEREST. Kim "Jin" Seokjin of BTS
BACKUPS. Jung Jinyoung of B1A4
PERSONALITY TRAITS. Dependable, Loyal and reliable, strong (physically as well emotionally), stubborn, agressive, dislikes change
PERSONALITY. 
seokjin is strong and silent. in the first instance, seokjin comes across as extremely quiet and reserved person. only after you get close to him will you have a proper conversation, rather than simple monologues. he moves deliberately and is as steady as a rock. once seokjin has made up his mind, it is impossible to move him even slightly. if you leave him alone, seokjin will come across as a very easygoing person.  if you push seokjin, he becomes stubborn. if you are still trying to make him budge, beware of the violent temper. seokjin is hardly impulsive and never gets angry without a reason. infact, he has the perfect control over his emotions. however, when seokjin does get angry, it is better not to get in the way or you are bound to get trampled. the anger also takes time to come down. 

one of the typical personality traits of kim seokjin is passivity. you can count on him to be there when you need him, but he will never be the one to call on you. at the same time, he will know 'what to do' and 'how to do it'. worrying, fretting or getting nervous is definitely not one of seokjin's characteristics. it is in his nature to be stable and stoic. he takes his decisions slowly, after careful considerations. taurus people love their home and change upsets them. don't tell seokjin that he's stubborn; he'll never believe it. he thinks himself to be patient, not obstinate. seokjin has this amazing quality of bearing emotional and physical pain, even for years, without grieving or complaining. the more the troubles come pouring in, the stronger he will come out to be. seokjin is nothing if not loyal and dedicated to his family and friends. 

seokjin is not stingy and his pockets, along with his heart. he always open to friends and family. he loves grandeur and he is deeply interested in the various forms of art. music usually has a very special place in his life. he is not the one to build castles out of air. synonymous with lasting love, seokjin is not prone to wandering. he loves luxury, but detest waste and extravagance. last but not the least, he's dependable, strong, patient and trustworthy
INTERACTIONS.
   — [The first time I saw you, my heart was like...] Mirae and Seokjin met when Hoseok picked Mirae up at the hospital. In 2012, Bangtan was still preparing for their debut. Hoseok had texted Mirae that he was feeling a bit hungry and he was really tired so he asked Mirae to make him some food and bring it to his practice room. During that time, Mirae was coming home from her appointment with her doctor to discuss about her health. Mirae texted back that she can't because she just cam out out of the hospital. Hoseok then texts "Noona, can I pick you up then?" Mirae texted back that he can but he has to be careful. 
Since Hoseok might get scolded if he went out alone, Hoseok asked his hyung Seokjin to tag along. Being the kind hyung he is, Seokjin agreed to tag along. In the way to Mirae's location, Seokjin had been curious about Hoseok's sister and had asked questions about her. When Hoseok and Seokjin finally reached their destination, that's when Seokjin and Mirae first met. Hoseok yelled "Noona!" really loud to the point where Mirae had to smack his head. Hoseok then introduced Seokjin to Mirae. That's when they met. Seokjin felt something in his heart. He wasn't the type to be attracted to noonas so he felt weird. Mirae didn't notice this and just smiled. Hoseok then raised an eyebrow at his hyung. Since the day they met, Hoseok has never seen Seokjin act this way. Hoseok then concluded that there was a chance that Seokjin developed an "interest" in Mirae. 
— [The aftermath of my heart's dedication to you...] After that day, Seokjin has been more curious about Mirae. He always tries to find out what she's doing, causing him to always bother Hoseok about Mirae. Hoseok who finally snapped, gave Seokjin Mirae's phone number to stop Seokjin from bothering him again. When Seokjin got Mirae's phone number, it was like he had a chance to get close with Mirae. When Mirae and Seokjin first exchanged text numbers, they were extremely awkward with each other. When Mirae reads Seokjin's awkward texts, it tends to brighten her mood and make her smile. When Seokjin reads Mirae's texts, he felt like Mirae was a really nice person who could use someone around to take care of her. Seokjin confessed to Mirae on Valentines Day. He had sung INFINITE's "White Confession" for her. Even though it had a Christmas feel, Seokjin wanted Mirae to be remind of winter. Why winter? Because it turns out that Mirae's favorite season is winter.
— [It's been a year but they're still] They text each other (or at least, Kakaotalk each other). They call each other when they have the chance to. Jin is now considered one of the few people that can see Mirae through like glass. Mirae is always telling him her problems. Mirae knows that Seokjin will listen to her problems because Seokjin is naturally a good listener. 
Whenever Jin's on a schedule with BTS, he tends to think about Mirae lot. He worries about her and wonders what she's doing. Jin might not seem like that on the outisde, but he sure is a lovesick idiot in the inside. He likes to look at all the texts they share each other. He tends to smile while thinking about her, making his BTS members curious as to why he's acting like that. If they asked, he would act like he didn't know what s are talking about. The same thing goes for Mirae. She tends to think about Seokjin a lot whenever he's not around. Her brother (who knows everything) would just joke around with her to make her feel better. Mirae would sometimes look at the pictures they took together (yes, they do that). His brother who seems to notice all of these would just smile and prays that his hyung doesn't hurt his noona in any way.
On variety shows, they still interact the way they usually do. There would be fancams of their interactions on music shows. Some showed the two joking around like a bunch of idiots. Some would be of them looking at each other for a bit, lock eyes, and look away embarassed. There are times when they coincidentally have matching items. During their time together (just the two of them), they like to hold hands and have lots of skinship. They share kisses oftenly. Around the BTS members, they are always teased. The BTS members knew the fact that the two are dating from Hoseok. The two are usually still lovey dovey with each other. They don't really mind with public displays of affection in front of their friends, as long as there's no fans near them...anything is cool.

TRIVA.
— Their relationship's persona is the Awkward Couple or the Noona and the Dongsaeng Couple
— Seokjin will never let anyone harm Mirae, he's extremely protective towards her
— It took Seokjin a year to finally gather courage to ask Mirae out
— They officially started dating in February 24th 2013, on Valentine's Day
— Their anniversary is on Valentine's Day
— They have couple rings 
— Seokjin's nickname (that only Mirae can use) is Jinnie-rang (Seokjin and Sarang combined, a bit cheesy in Seokjin's eyes)
— Mirae's nickname (that only Seokjin can use) is Rae-rang (Mirae and Sarang combined, Mirae always liked the way Seokjin pronounced her name so yeah)
— Mirae likes it when Seokjin calls her "Noona" or "Seri Noona" 
— Mirae always goes to Seokjin when she has a problem because Mirae knows Seokjin will listen to every word she says
— Seokjin likes Mirae for her caring and motherly nature. He always wanted someone who he can comfort and take care of when they're feeling down. Seokjin doesn't really mind that Mirae is two years older. Most of his friends tell him that Seokjin suits a noona-dongsaeng relationship, rather than an oppa-dongsaeng.
— Mirae likes Seokjin for his trustworthy and dependable nature. Mirae always liked the fact that Seokjin takes care of her well and will always be there for her whenever she's sad. Seokjin and Mirae share a very special bond. Despite Mirae being older, Seokjin takes care of her like an oppa is to his dongsaeng. Mirae always lets Seokjin take lead of their events and dates since Mirae knows Seokjin has a stubborn side to him.
