PERSONALITY. 
Upon the first glance, Liqiu radiates the aura and elegance of a ballet dancer. This appearance hides her true personality, the girl who always has her head in the clouds and a mouth that works faster than her curious mind. A noticeable thing about Liqiu is that she always has questions for any situation, as everything is fascinating to her and her active imagination. She will not stop until she has answers to all of the mysteries in life. Sometimes her constant talking can drive people insane, but she proves to be an efficient public speaker. She is comfortable standing in front of a large crowd and speaking without a trace of awkwardness. She is also the kind of person who expresses what's on her mind without hesitation, and is very open in terms of her thoughts and emotions. As a result, Liqiu is incredibly extroverted and treats everyone as if she's known them forever. She most definitely would be the one who does the talking and barely the listening. However, her barrage of wild questioning can spark irritation among others, as she usually tends to interrupt when they're in the middle of talking. 

Liqiu lives with freedom and ease, and because of this she hates sticking to rules and the conformity of things. Some may say she's fun loving, others might say she's too carefree. Liqiu has a very humanistic way of viewing the world and strongly believes everyone has a right to decide their own future. If anyone argues with her, she won't hesitate to defend herself. Liqiu does slightly lack the ability to accept others' different views but that doesn't mean she squashes them completely, instead taking it to her mind in order to broaden it. Liqiu is horribly impatient and has a very low tolerance for waiting because she wants things fast and quick. In fact, she can even express impatience with her dance training, but if someone can soothe her down she calms down and reminds herself that patience would bring her success. While Liqiu is confident in her dancing and acting skills, she sometimes often doubts her own abilities, and needs to be reassured by others. Liqiu easily overlooks the flaws of others due to her sweet nature, but she believes her own imperfections are unforgiveable. She is never satisfied with "good enough," and pushes herself to gain "perfection.

To her, friends are supposed to be people who don't get easily -hurt by her comments, which makes her comfortable around them. She enjoys the company of others, as she can share the many things she wants to say. When it comes to trust, Liqiu takes the issue very seriously and she doesn't spread her trust around like cheap margarine, despite her friendly manner. If someone does break that trust, she drops you as a friend without hesitation, and won't take you back until you actually drop down to the knees and beg for her forgiveness.
