PERSONALITY Since she was little, Bonnie has been someone who is always up for a new challenge. That's what makes her so adventurous; she loves to learn more and expand her little mind. You would often find her off to the side, exploring every little thing just out of curiosity. She rarely gets stuck on one thing as she bounces back and forth from new hobbies and interests. Because of this, Bonnie is also very easygoing and persuasive. She rarely gets annoyed at things because she likes to keep a positive mindset for herself and everyone around her. With her optimism, Bonnie likes to look on her bright side of things, even if she knows that's not a good idea in the long run, but she likes to be in the moment and not worry too much about the future. Having grown up in the film industry, Bonnie has adopted the cooperative trait. Despite appearing shy at first, Bonnie works well with people and tries to adapt to their needs. She tries to be helpful whenever she can and have an upbeat persona to keep the environment in a positive outlook.
With Bonnie being a loyal person, she can become way too dependent for her own good. She doesn't like to be by herself, and can become possessive at times. However, you can expect Bonnie to help you through the good and bad times. She is a great person to go to if someone is feeling down, lending them a shoulder to cry on, just so she can feel worthy and validated by the other person. Having acted in numerous situations since she was young, Bonnie has an imaginative personality. She loves to create stories and use all kinds of art mediums to express herself. Nonetheless, Bonnie can be too caught up in her imaginative ways which can lead to her absentmindedness due to being too consumed by her creativeness. Bonnie's imaginations also would often lead to her fantasyland when things in the real world become too stressful for her, creating false beliefs.
Bonnie can get too absentminded at times. She doesn't always pay attention to things, and often gets distracted. Bonnie usually forgets the littlest of things and when she gets called out for it, she feels really bad even though it's not that important, but to her, it is. She also has a tendency to not see the big picture and focuses on the little details instead. Bonnie is probably the most gullible person you could ever meet. She is aloof and most jokes go straight over her head at times. Because of her dependency, she trusts people way too easily without giving much of a second thought. This could easily be an advantage for someone to manipulate Bonnie but fortunately, this hasn't happened yet. Unsurprisingly, Bonnie is delicate. She is used to rejection but that also means she doesn't show that she is sad when deep down, she really is. She becomes very concerned about other people's opinions of her rather than focusing on herself. By this, she can be in her head way too much. But as an actor, she can easily hide her feelings and become melodramatic. Bonnie has a tendency to overhype a situation for dramatic effect so it doesn't become boring, she hates boring. It's also a case of where Bonnie wants to be in the middle of the situation so she doesn't feel left out, going back to her dependence. She grew up in an environment where attention is the most important thing, so she really doesn't know how to react other than to get involved; it's just who Bonnie is.

BACKGROUND Buntharik 'Bonnie' Narueban was born on February 11th, 2005 in Bangkok, Thailand to her parents Chaolem 'Chao' Narueban and Kridtika 'Kri' Narueban, making her an only child.
Right from the start, Bonnie was born for stardom; or at least that's what her uncle, Mongkhol 'Moe' Narueban would say, as Moe is a talent agent. With Chao and Kri's permission, Moe started to manage Bonnie with the company he worked for when she was 4. In the first years of being in the industry, Bonnie never really had any major features, just extra work and some photo shoots here and there. Other than that, Bonnie lived a normal life.
When Bonnie turned five in 2010, she got offered the role of the Thai dub of Agnes in Despicable Me. Due to the success of the franchise, Bonnie started to slowly gain attraction as a child actress in Thailand. She went on to voice Agnes once again in the following movies and played bigger roles in other productions such as Kol Kimono, Gift, and My Love From Another Star.
Shortly after finishing the production of One Year 365: Wan Ban Chun Ban Tur in 2019, Bonnie's agency declared bankruptcy and was forced to shut down. Bonnie's uncle gave her the choice to find a new agency with him or take a hiatus from the film industry, and Bonnie chose to take a break as she felt like she wasn't going anywhere in her career anyway. She went back to being a full time student when 2020 rolled around.
When SM announced that they would be recruiting for a future girl group, Bonnie was ecstatic. She has always been a fan of K-POP, especially since there are a handful of Thai idols who debuted in the industry, Bonnie got somewhat inspired to also become an idol, but she was too focused on her career as an actress, so being an idol was put on the back burner; until now.
With her parents permission, she auditioned for the Jarang Project via YouTube and surprisingly won along with 8 other girls. Bonnie packed up and moved to Korea in February 2021, looking forward to her next move in her career.

NAME Chaolem 'Chao' Narueban ≀ Kridtika 'Kri' Narueban.
AGE 53 ≀ 51.
OCCUPATION Financial Advisor ≀ Event Planner.
RELATIONSHIP
✩ Being an only child, Bonnie's parents subconsciously put a lot of pressure on her from a young age. They had to find a balance for Bonnie having a normal childhood and still working as an actress. As Bonnie got older, she was never a typical rebel teenager but still the "perfect daughter" that Chao and Kri visioned. However, when she decided to quit acting, Chao and Kri also realized that Bonnie should be her own person rather than the ideal daughter. That's why they were so quick to agreeing that Bonnie should pursue being an idol; if that's what Bonnie truly wants and makes her happy, then so be it.

TRAINEE YEARS 11 Years under Laong Talent Agency, 5 Months at SM Entertainment.
TRAINEE LIFE Bonnie doesn't consider Laong Talent Agency as training per se, mainly because she was kind of thrown into acting classes at a young age and started going to auditions immediately after, starting her acting career.
Thus, her true training experience started a week after her 16th birthday. She had visited Seoul before, but not more than a few days, and in the beginning, Bonnie got very homesick, calling her parents whenever she had the chance.
One of Bonnie's many concerns when she arrived at SM Entertainment was the language barrier, though she knew SM had many resources to catch her up on Korean, Bonnie feared that learning a whole new language would be way too complex for her, but she persevered due to the fact that Korean is thankfully one of the more easier languages to learn. And thankfully, her vast knowledge in English came in handy for the more fluent English speaking members.
Bonnie was nothing more than your average amateur trainee. Even with all the other girls who were also amateurs, Bonnie had tons of doubts about it and constantly compared and contrasted herself from the other girls.
Nevertheless, this just only made Bonnie more hardworking as she desperately wanted to improve herself. And in result, she had become slightly above average by the time she was ready to debut.
