APPEARANCE. Eun Hwa actually has very bad eye sight and needs her glasses everywhere, however she is asked to wear contact lenses for when she appears on TV. She may seem like a cold person exterior, but look closely into her eyes - they tell you no lies. You will never find Eun Hwa with her hair up, she hates it, the only time is when she's practcing. She has always wanted to get a streak of red in her hair. She has two piercings on each side of her ears, shaped as wings.
>> I feel like we need more people like Eun Hwa training in YG, solely focused on one thing and an inspiration << YG
Eun Hwa could be classed as one of the most focused girls you’ve ever seen, especially when she learn lyrics and dance moves. She’s so focused that she doesn’t know what’s happening around her. The reason for this is because she’d be always lacking in something, with dancing she’s isn’t the best dancer in the word and for lyrics, she’s pretty forgetful but always manages to lean them all in one night – that’s how focused she can get. This is especially when she’s composing for a new song she’s so focused she won’t know what day it is – pretty unrealistic but she traps herself in a room until she gets it right. Eun Hwa as an inspiration can communicate clearly, concisely and often by doing so, motivates everyone to give it their best at all times. She challenges people by setting high but attainable standards and expectations. Even though she can become highly negative at times, she’s not...here’s a scenario: Eun Hwa is always the only one who’s negative, so when everyone else is negative she’s the one who becomes the positive person and tries to become the mood maker of the group – tries to make them positive again. She likes to be the only one negative as she thinks it’s her only unique personality.
>> Even with her cold exterior, the trainee’s feel a lot of comfort with her as she’s empathetic, trustworthy and honest at the same time <<
Despite looking cold and hard to approach, Eun Hwa is a very trustworthy person, she’s the girl that everyone would go to, to tell their secrets, however she has a policy: if it hurts the other person, she’ll tell, she morally spoken. But they come to her to sort out their personal problem rather than talking gossip about other trainee’s, which is what she likes. She’d always solve everyone’s problems as she likes to put other before herself, the result of having a younger sister. So she takes in everyone’s problems, no matter who they are or what problems it is, and solve them – she’d never reject problem no matter how stupid it’d sounds. Eun Hwa has the ability to understand and share the feelings of another, so it makes it a lot easier to talk to her. As for honesty, Eun Hwa absolutely hates liars and would always tell the truth no matter how much it hurts the other person but the thing is with that she’d always be kind about it and nice about it...very gentle to how’d she say it. She speaks the truth...well at times she does, she’s fine with a few white lies, but once they get bigger – that gets out of hand. If you look into her eyes you’ll always find the truth.
>> She’s obedient to the point it’ll sometimes look unintentionally cute...neh...there are times when she can get really scary, for example all of those witty/sharp sarcastic comebacks, they can be mean and truthful at the same time. She knows everything about every trainee <<
Sometimes most trainee’s are scared to be playfully mean to her, but if you’re close enough you’d know that she’s joking...half the time. She calls herself the comeback queen, and in all honesty it’s the truth, she’d always know straight away the wittiest and smartest thing to stay to a person when you offend her, her family and friends – which makes its scarier. She can get really serious about it too sometimes but she’s mostly overly confident when she has a comeback, the only time she get’s overly confident. Since she knows a lot of things from the other trainee’s she’d use it against them sometimes, and sometimes the things she says about the other trainee’s are false just to protect them. Well the moral of the lesson is do not mess with Eun Hwa when she’s angry because what I’ve just stated before can’t even come close to how she reacts when she’s angry.
>> Exterior she’s cold, strong and stable, however I’ve seen her become detached at times, and even lacks self-confidence <<
Eun Hwa rarely smiles and when she does it genuine, because of this she’s seen as cold not only because of that reason, but she can be cold to the people she doesn’t like and she can be extremely cold to the people she likes. She comes out as mean when in truth she doesn’t mean to. She’d always seem a little cold when she’s giving out tough love. She also looks like a strong and stable girl, one who won’t break – she doesn’t, at all and she would never, but there are times when she detaches herself from the group. She's the kind of girl who you'd never thought you'd see cry because she never does. There are times where she likes to be alone and doesn’t want to bother other people – putting them before herself, again. It was hard for her to express her own feelings and would always keep a poker face at times, the only way and best way to express her feeling is when she’s writing. When lacking in self-confidence, she’d always think she can never do it and she becomes negative about everything, like she’d never finish the song, she’d never learn the lyrics and she’d never remember the dance moves.
>> You’d think because she’s Eun Hwa her room would be clean, but it’s not. I think it because of her laziness and because of it she get’s easily forgetful <<
There are times when she can’t bother to get up and do things. The only reason for that is because of all of the all nighters – which is highly unhealthy for her health – she becomes too tired to clean her room which comes across as lazy. This is shown especially in the dorms, when she gets back she lays on the couch and asks for the nearest person to get her a drink or whatever else she wants. When she’s lazy she can get forgetful, since her room is a mess the way she comes forgetful is when she can’t remember where she put something and doesn’t bother to remember where she put it. If she brings one thing she forgets the other, and she always knows what she’s missing.
>> It was difficult to learn a new language <<
Choi Eun Hwa was born and raised in Australia as Chelsea Choi for 7 years, at the same age she moved to Busan, Korea where she attended school at the age of 10. At 8 and 9 she was homeschooled, she was taught by her parents especially on how to speak in Korean, therefore she has a strong Busan accent. It was a difficult time for her and also her younger sister to learn a whole new language at a young age, but she managed. Her family would often go visit Australia to see other family members, so Eun Hwa’s English would never fade away. She was a naturally born leader, however because nobody listened to what she had to say her natural born leadership faded away and now she shows no sign of it. However she did become a part of the student council at time – or in Australia the class captain.
>> My family’s living condition is no concern at all <<
Eun Hwa lived in a quite poor family with only her mother working, she and her sister were not allowed to work as they had to focus more on their studies first. However they were a stable family that seemed like they had more money than they did, Eun Hwa and her sister had no trouble, neither did their parents and their mother would never complain about being the only one who worked. Eun Hwa is very close to her mother and wears the sleeping socks that she gave her every single night. "People use to find it hard to be around me and they still do, in my old school I was never the one to be social and outgoing and I didn't like to go outside - I became a wallflower. So whenever my friends came over they would get bored easily and leave." Eun Hwa never really liked to go outside as she wasn't really comfortable with its surroundings and her connection with people would always start out slow. She was a straight b student getting various A’s on many occasions. Her best subjects were Maths, English, Art and Computers and her worse subjects were Workshop, Science, PE and Geography. Eun Hwa actually never wanted to become an idol when she grew up, she wanted to become an author and has started wiring ever since the age of 6 but she found singing to be more inspiring and she has grown a liking to it.
>> Singing and composing is my life now <<
Eun Hwa started out playing the flute; she has become almost professional-like at it. After, she learned how to play the piano, violin, drum and guitar but she wasn’t as good on them as she was on the flute. She used these abilities to compose a song for each of her parent’s birthdays and sister’s as well. She isn’t that great at writing lyrics, but she’s learning a lot as a trainee. She got into music when she was 9, but started singing when she was very young. Her mother would use to tell her that any song that she heard she would try to imitate it. She really looks up to B.A.P’s Daehyun, Ailee, TVXQ’s Changmin, Super Junior’s Yesung and 2NE1’s Bom’s amazing vocals and wishes to sound like one of them one day.

>> I was worried that she wasn’t going to fit in<<
Eun Hwa became a trainee after her sister and mother sent a tape of her singing to YG. She has an angelic voice and got in, however there were moments when her singing was off tune and flat – she is human after all. When Eun Hwa got in she was quiet and didn’t talk to anyone. She held up her cold exterior that made her hard to approach. YG didn’t worry too much, but he was afraid that she’d be too shy to try to sit in thus making her too shy to be able to debut. Luckily for him after time passed by she got used to YG and her confidence started to show.
>> I thought I wasn’t going to make it <<
Eun Hwa got into YG when she was 14, she had a pretty normal trainee life, and the things that mostly troubled her were dancing. She has never danced like that ever in her life, she had danced before but not on that difficult level, because of that she spent many days and nights learning new dance moves and overworking her body, it made it worse because of her health, but thanks to Jinhwan she made it alive. It also didn’t help that would often become sore and strained. She thought she was never going to make it.
BACKUP LOVE INTEREST. Yang Hongseok
PERSONALITY. Outgoing, funny, sweet, kind and caring ... uwha I dunno T^T
During her early trainee days, Eun Hwa had a lot of trouble trying to remember lyrics and dance moves. Jinhwan was always there to help her out. This is how their first meeting went.
“Ugh! I can’t figure out any new lyrics to write!” Eun Hwa screamed in frustration.
“Please get lost,” she asked as nice as she could.
“Sorry I bothered you,” he sounded upset and disappointed.
“Wait,” she called, he turned his head her way.
“I’m sorry,” she bowed, “I’m Choi Eun Hwa and I’ve been a trainee for about a year already, and the frustration and pressure is starting to get in my head, sorry.”
“Don’t worry, how old are you anyways? It might explain the stress,” he replied.
“15.”
“That explains it, I’m Kim Jinhwan, 18 years old,” he held out his hand.
“Nice to meet you,” she shook his hand.
“Do you need some help? I’m not very good at these things but I can help you, I can listen to the composition and correct the lyrics,” he explained.
“Please note, do not think we are going to be friends after this.”
“I’m going to take that as a yes.”
Eun Hwa, in all honestly, didn't like Jinhwan at first sight. Even when he would help her with lyrics and dance moves, she still didn't like him and he knew that. The reason for this dislike that Eun Hwa was feeling is because, Jinhwan was older than her and she thought he was cocky. They would always meet up for practicing their vocals and Eun Hwa turned it into a competition. Jinhwan would try his best to become friends with her, like always helping her with everything. Whenever he tried to be funny she would always roll her eyes at him and ignore him. She especially hated how good at dancing he was. Jinhwan will forever keep on trying to get her attention. "I've known her long enough to understand that she doesn't connect with people easily and the outside world." He actually - this is not stalking - knows a lot about her, especially how she doesn't like to go outside or likes to socialise so he, whenever he's left with her, tries to do things she likes to do and tries to bring whatever is outside, inside so she doesn't miss out on anything. "I took Jinhwan for granted, after all this time he's always been there for me. I was blind."
