      WHO YOU?  

                                

[ PERSONALITY
hufflepuff, gemini, social butterfly, could become best friends with a wall 

[ TRAITS ] outgoing,oblivious, kind, loyal, erratic, gaurded, warm, loud, friendly, talkative

[ PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION ] soonhyuk has always been outgoing and friendly, being able to make friends fast and easily. being able to talk to a stranger and get their whole life story within minutes. with that being said he doesn't know when to shut up. he talks and talks until someone tells him or makes him stop. he doesn't like awkward silence, or silence at all and talks to fill the air. to the point where each member slowly leaves the room until there is only one that has to talk to him. he even talks in his sleep. despite not being able to stop talking he knows how to work an interveiw in his or the groups favor. 
soonhyuk may talk a lot, but he is terribily oblivious, especially when it comes to others emotions. he doesn't realize if he's making someone uncomfortable or annoyed, unless they tell him. despite being a social butterfly, he is pretty gaurded when it comes to his emotions and inner thoughts. despite being a warm and inviting person, with his walls up it seems like he is faking his friendliness. soonhyuk only ever had four friends growing up, he treasures them deeply and only they know how soonhyuk thinks or looks at situations. he is loyal to a fault, if anyone tries to hurt his friends consider them a dead man. to make one of the nicest people upset, is asking for a death wish.
soonhyuk is kind of everywhere at once, he can't sit and do one thing. his brain running a million miles per hour, makes others see him as erratic. despite the erratic nature, he's warm and kind to every person he meets. that could be the reason people tend to open up to him pretty easily. he's able to melt even the coldest people and make them feel loved and cared for. everything he does is with good intentions even if he doesn't know how the person feels about it.
 


[ BACKGROUND ]kwon soonhyuk was born into a family of four, his mother, father, an older sister by 4 years and an older brother by 3 years were more than happy for another baby. the three grew up like any normal kids, his brother loved dancing while he mainly sang and rapped along to whatever song his brother would be playing. their parents put the two of them in different sports to occupy their time and help them develop the two oldest were in taekwondo while soonhyuk learned soccer and played on various teams growing up.
soonhyuk moved to seoul with their aunt in 2010, to persue a more challenging soccer team. a year later his brother began training at pledis entertainment. soonhyuk found it hard to be apart from his family, so when he met the kids from canada accross the hall he began trying to be their friends. following them around, tagging along with them at school. jaeyong and haeyong became his extended family, even offering them to spend the holidays with him bask home, which they always declined. soonhyuk spent his free time either on the field or in coin kaoroke with jaeyong and haeyong. he would rap while jaeyong sang and haeyong danced along with them. the three were as close as school friends could be.
 
soonhyuk got into a performing arts school, his parents weren't too sure what he was planning on doing. he would play soccer on the traveling junior team and turn around rehearse for a vocal exam. after telling them he was considering going after the same dream as his brother, whom had just debuted, they accepted it. but, on hte condition he never compared him against his brother and worked hard for himself not them. as they just wanted him to be happy. at the end of soonhyuk's first year of high school he was scouted based off his height alone by an FNC representative. going to the audition, they ended up accepting him. soonhyuk alerted the traveling team that he won't be returning for the next season and began training. 
after training a few months, he was part of the line up for SF9 before the start of the reality show to decide what group debuted, he was cut last minute due to his lack of dancing ability. he continued training in FNC until 2020, when he was heading to meet up with jaeyong he was scouted by a fantagio representative. with the promise of debuting soon, he took them up on the offer and turned to join jaeyong.

besties/ drinking buddies dino lee chan (seventeen) 02.11.1999  rocky  park minhyuk (astro) 02.25.1999  
won't go home till 6 am
chan and soonhyuk became friends first through hoshi and secondly when they began attending the same school and were in the same class. chan was honestly freaked out by how much the two brothers are alike. the two became drinking buddies once they turned of age. they normally would sit together for hours just talking about life and how they are dealing with whatever was currently happening in their lifes.
tsoonhyuk met rocky through dino back in high school, the three being the same age and going through the same process. they became close. the three rely on each other when they are having a hard time, often ending up talking in a bar or restruant until close. due to the virus they don't meet up as much but, began face timing and taking a drink, while talking. after entering fantagio the two run into each other more often and hang out when they can. rocky may or may not have helped him during dance practices.
soonhyuk has joked that they could never be a trio, since the other two are good dancers and he isn't.
   
older brother hoshi kwon soonyoung  06.15.1996  
don't let him drink
the two have grown closer over the years, bonding over the training experience and their mutual dream. soonhyuk has gotten a lot of dance training from his brother when he wasn't busy. the two are often calling or contacting each other along with their sister to remain in contact during their busy lives. hoshi complains and whines that soonhyuk hangs out with chan more than him, to which they both answer.
"your tolerance is too low."
soonyoung and soonhyuk are each other's biggest supporters alongside their parents whom has their house decorated with seventeen and hoshi merchandise, (and soon a1's and taiyo's)
     
childhood friends su jaeyong fc: hwiyoung sf9) 11.20.2000 , su haeyong (fc: rena pristin) 02.13.1999, and park dohwan 08.08.1999 (fc: lee jaewook) 
 the four musketeers
the su siblings and soonhyuk were inseperable when they were younger, the three would meet up every now and then after going their own ways. jaeyong and haeyong have come out to soonhyuk whom responded with 
"so i had a chance with jaeyong this whole time? i wasted three years crushing on haeyong."
"i have taste."
"aka dohwan."
the four hang out, grabbing food trying new cafes and filming videos for haeyong. when jayeong told soonhyuk that he was dating dohwan, he wasn't shocked and happy for his friends. dohwan having been his friend since middle school as well. dohwan was soonhyuk's best friend growing up, the two maintained a close relationship, and even closer after coming out and being more themselves as a whole.
 
a1 boys kwon hyeon, park namsun, woo jiwoo  his newest targets
when soonhyuk first met hyeon he loved the kid, everyone else on the other hand realised how high the energy will be in the group. hyeon's talent shocked soonhyuk realising how talented everyone int he group must be. 
namsun, was the second one he met and all he wanted to was crack his facade just a bit. determined to become his best friend. 
jiwoo, the third one he met he knew he would break in a minute. seeing a lot of similarity between him and jaeyong. he was focused on getting him to open up and like him.
 
   
friends kim youngbin (sf9) 11.23.1993  choi jiung (p1harmony) 10.07.2001

csoonhyuk trained with the two at fnc, both having helped him a lot wuth the dance evaluations. when he decided to leave, youngbin hugged him for a long while before letting go and telling him he needs to reach out every now and then so they can hang out.

jiung is like the little brother soonhyuk always wanted, the two would hang around the dorm and fnc together. soonhyuk would spoil him and the other members of p1harmony. the two haven't gotten the chance to meet up since jiung debuted. jiung sends soonhyuk photos of him and the group telling him they miss him and can't wait till they share the same stage.

while going to visit jaeyong at  fantagio he was scouted accross the street. after talking it over with his brother, jaeyong and his best friends. he decided to leave fnc, despite the tears sf9 and p1harmony left in his wake. he knew it was the right choice. once beginning in fantagio he began pushing himself to show he deserves to debut, spending sleepless nights in the practice room. stressing himself out on a regular basis, trying to prove his place as a rapper.
 
     MY RIDE OR DIE  

[ LOVE INTEREST NAME + GROUP ]  cha eunwoo lee dongmin of astro
[ BACKUP ]rook of a1

[ CURRENT RELATIONSHIP STATUS ] dating (10.04.2019)

[ PERSONALITY ] loyal, stoic, kind, softhearted, quiet,caring, naive, warm hearted, loving, hopeless romantic

[ FIRST MEETING ] 2017 soonhyuk first met eunwoo through his best friend rocky. the two had met up at his agency to grab dinner when rocky introduced the two of them. soonhyuk fell in love at first sight. eunwoo was kind and greeted him with the smile that basically makes everyone fall in love with him. soonhyuk already had a soft spot for pretty boys. so eunwoo easily took his heart.

[ DEVELOPMENT / LOVE STORY ] soonhyuk being the embodiment of a puppy that he is would followrocky around whenever he brought up eunwoo would be there. soonhyuk began trying to get closer to eunwoo as time went on, and it worked. soonhyuk would stop by his shoots to cheer him on with rocky. 
2018 eunwoo thought soonhyuk was cute, always following him around. he soon began to expect him to show up with rocky most of the time. when showed up less and less eunwoo began to become concerned. next thing he knew, he was busy filming another drama the next time he saw soonhyuk. 
soonhyuk was hanging out with rocky, at the company when he saw eunwoo for the first time in months. soonhyuk smiled and followed eunwoo as he moved to sit with them.
"I swear he is never at his own company." rocky joked to eunwoo as soonhyuk smiled and watched the two.
"why would i go to my company, when i can look at your handsome faces?" soonhyuk said, mostly looking at eunwoo. 
a distaste grew in eunwoo's mouth coming to the conclusion that soonhyuk only likes his face. even though it was quite the opposite as soonhyuk got to know him more.
2019 eunwoo began distancing himself from soonhyuk which proved difficult considering he's best friends with one of s. eunwoo wasn't sure what he felt for soonhyuk, and wasn't keen on figuring it out just yet.
during a night of drinking with rocky and dino at the astro dorm, the others were all out doing their own thing, soonhyuk came out as queer and addressed his crush on eunwoo. his two best friends let him talk it all out, giving their advice. when eunwoo returned exhausted from the shoot he had, he greeted the three before heading to his room. 
"tell him." rocky whispered to the tipsy soonhyuk whom played with strings in his ripped pants.
"you won't know how he feels unless you tell him." dino chimed in sipping on his beer.
"i hate you guys. if this ends badly i will like my funeral to be nice and have everyone throw flowers as they drive me away." soonhyuk explained, the two waving him off as he stood taking a deep breath. adjusting his green sweater before heading to the door eunwoo just entered, and knocking lightly.
"minhyuk, i'm not going to buy you guys more." eunwoo groaned as he opened the door jumping back seeing soonhyuk infront of him.
"it's me, hyung. um. c-can i talk to you for a second?" soonhyuk stuttered which eunwoo has never seen, he nods slowly letting the other into the room.
"everything okay?" eunwoo asked concerned why the younger was coming to him inside of his friends.
"this is gonna be weird. maybe uncomfortabe but those s i call my best friends have convience a very tipsy soonhyuk to do this. " soonhyuk took another deep breath as eunwoo sat on his bed eyeing the younger. "i like you, and not just like a hyung or because your handsome. that definitely does play a part but, your loyal, smart, kind, warm-hearted and geniune which isn't something you find often. but you are also soft-hearted and easily tricked. but, thats also something i like about you. okay, i'm gonna stop talking now. cause i don't know what else i'll say if i continue talking. like how i'm pretty sure i like men and women and tht i had a crush for three years on haeyong which is just weird now-"
"soonhyuk." eunwoo snapping him out of his rambling, he smiled at the floor before looking at the younger. "look, i don't know what i feel, i didn't give myself the time to think it through. maybe i do like you, and your unwavering support for everyone you meet. or the fact that once you like someone you follow them around so it's weird when your not there. either way, i need some time too think about it. I'm no-soonhyuk?" eunwoo had realised soonhyuk was sitting on the floor against the door smiling dumbly at him.
"you said you might like me." he slurred, eunwoo sighed beofre standing up helping the younger up. which is when eunwoo realized they were at eye level with each other.
"when did you get this tall?"
"when i started liking you." eunwoo groaned at the cheesy line.
"go back to minhyuk and chan. i'll let you know my answer later when your sober."
"i'm pretty sober now." eunwoo rolled his eyes with a smile, pushing soonhyuk out of his room.
 
a few days later, eunwoo was running low on sleep having sent every possible moment thinking about his feelings for soonhyuk. sitting in rehearsal witht he others, he figured this would get his mind off the subject. he was wrong, in waltzed in soonhyuk carrying bags with rocky, smiling to the other guys as he handed them snacks and drinks. pausing as rocky handed eunwoo his drink, eunwoo keeping his eyes on soonhyuk. the younger biting his lip as he checked his phone wishing the group luck before heading out of the studio.
 
eunwoo stared at his phone waiting for any message from the younger, he unlocked the screen staring at soonhyuk's contact, practically glaring at it.
from: kwon soonhyuk (minhyuk's friend)
hey hyung! minhyuk isn't reponding to my messgaes T-T can you check to make sure his phone is charged?
eunwoo scoffed, getting up and going to the living where minhyuk and jinjin sat watching tv.
"charge your phone." eunwoo said walking back to his room, minhyuk looking the oldest confused whom only shrugged.
to kwon soonhyuk (minhyuk's friend)
told him to charge it
 
from: kwon soonhyuk (minhyuk's friend)
thanks hyung!
eunwoo punched his phone and pouted, glaring at the screen again before sighing.
 
to: kwon soonhyuk (minhyuk's friend)
about my feelings...
 
soonhyuk shot up off of haeyong's couch, scaring her and jaeyong. the three peacefully watching a movie together.
"he said it! not said it, said it. but, texted it!" soonhyuk said jumping up and down jaeyong motioning for haeyong to take care of him.
"yo, soon. what and who are you talking about?"
"dongmin hyung, he likes me back." soonhyuk flopped back onto the couch with a loving smile on his face. 
"wait. cha eunwoo sunabenim?" jaeyong asked, soonhyuk nodded rapidly holding his phone to his heart dearly.
per jaeyong's reccomendation, the two kept it a secret from the mebers of astro and soonhyuk's friends as well, in the beginning. the two began dating and went on dates, when they could. they would hang out at the astro dorm with some of the members, them all assuming he's there to hang out with minhyuk, even though minhyuk knows the truth.
2020 when soonhyuk was scouted by fantagio he told dongmin instantly. dongmin was nervous he was changing his company for the wrong reasons. but soonhyuk wasn't switching for him but, for his own future. after joining the company saw each other more and more, soonhyuk almost always dragging eunwoo away somewhere where there were no cameras.

[ FUTURE DEVELOPMENT ]dating, both groups knowing, the two growing apart. minhyuk and jaeyong team up and try to bring them back together.
"they may be annoying when together but, they love each other." -su jaeyong

[ INTERACTIONS & OTHER ] dongmin normally just lets soonhyuk do whatever he wants, and laughs at his jokes. soonhyuk likes to make eunwoo smile or laugh as much as he can, even dragging jaeyong and hyeon into the mix. soonhyuk is clingy and is constantly hugging or touching him if he is sitting beside him or in the same room as him. dongmin calls him and video chats with him inbetween schedules, often meeting up for food and or with their friends to hang out. dongmin told some of the 97line about soonhyuk, so he tags along sometimes when they hang out if the otehrs are okay with it. dongmin always gives soonhyuk a wink or a passing hand touch if they are passing each other in the hallway with others around. when no one is around dongmin smiles as soonhyuk jokingly blows him a kiss.
