 ❃ Charismatic, Altruistic, Reliable, Optimistic.
 ❃ Tolerant, Sarcastic.
 ❃ Sensitive, Reluctant, Abrasive, Verbose.
Lee Taeryung is a charismatic woman. She is filled with passion and enthusiasm with every little thing she does. With this, Taeryung is persuasive, gaining trust from everyone she meets pretty much immediately. She has a sense of altruism, caring for others deeply. Nine times out of ten, Taeryung puts other people before her. She tries to educate herself on issues in the world and takes time to form an opinion. Not surprisingly, Taeryung is reliable, as she cherishes her close friends. She keeps her word, if she says something, she'll do something. With this, she is really straightforward. And finally, Taeryung often looks on the brighter side as she is an optimist. She always thinks everything is going to be fine one day, and tries to keep the mood up whenever someone is down or in an uncomfortable situation.
Taeryung is also tolerant, as she is aware that people have different opinions than her and respects them, even if she disagrees. However, if it's a sensitive topic, she will lash out on someone, trying to persuade the other person, trying to get them to see the light. Taeryung's humor and personality in general is sarcastic. As she is an optimist, Taeryung tries to lighten the situation with humor, though it may not always go her way. She sometimes makes sarcastic remarks about an uncomfortable situation or just whenever in general. Sometimes, she just does it just to get a reaction from someone.
Although she might not show it, deep down Taeryung is a sensitive person. She was born with high sensitivity, so there are many factors that can go into this trait. Absorbing people's emotions, time pressure, conflicts, and criticism are sensitive for her. Ever since she left Nega Network, her reluctance has been high. She hates big commitments as she is afraid that the commitment might not come into fruition. She takes a really long time to actually commit to something. Taeryung can also be abrasive in certain situations, going off of her sarcastic trait. She doesn't look too deep into things, becoming unaware of her choice of words and actions. She doesn't sugarcoat stuff and gives her opinion straightforwardly. And finally, Taeryung doesn't just shut up, she is a verbose person, always talking about something, even when it's not necessary. Maybe it's the rapper in her, but she unconsciously talks, even if from the smallest thing, not letting other people talk.



BACKGROUND

Lee Taeryung was born on May 23rd, 2000 in Gunsan, North Jeolla, South Korea to her parents Shin Dongjin and Lee Eunsook. She has one older sister, Shin Taeyeon who is 6 years older than her. Taeryung's parents eventually got a divorce when she was in the sixth grade, where her and her sibling lived with their mother, while her father still had joint custody. Taeryung has been in martial arts and modern dance ever since she was in the second grade. There at modern dance, she had grown to love dance and music. But unfortunately, her father was not really into the whole entertainment industry, he wanted his kids to grow up well educated and cultured.
Taeryung always knew she wanted a singing career. She uploaded singing covers on her YouTube channel since she was around 11. One day in 2012, a company by the name of SBS contacted her and asked her to audition for their show, K-Pop Star 2. It turned out that her long term friend, Yang Nahyun, submitted Taeryung's video to the company without her knowing. Anyways, Taeryung passed the preliminary audition. With her mother, the two had temporarily moved to Seoul for the show.
Taeryung auditioned for the main audition, becoming an official contestant for K-Pop Star 2 in 2012. She finished in the top 6, getting eliminated in the third round. But, she still signed onto Nega Network in late 2013.
Taeryung was in the original lineup of a new girl group collaboration with NH Media; Laboum. She was set to debut as the Lead Rapper, Lead Dancer, and Maknae of the group. However a couple months before Laboum's debut, Taeryung was pulled out of the final lineup as per request by her father. He claimed that she was too young to debut and only had a trainee period of a few months. The company ultimately came to an agreement that she would not debut in Laboum.
Taeryung left Nega Network in late 2015 due to poor performance after the Laboum situation, leaving her into a deep depression. Taeryung became an independent trainee until was scouted by Dal Media in early 2017 via her YouTube covers.

RELATIONS

신동진


RELATION "Father".
AGE 55.
OCCUPATION Private Investigator.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ It is safe to say that Taeryung and her father are not on the best of terms. Taeryung suspects when she changed her surname from Shin to Lee is when Dongjin started to disown her. Dongjin was and is still highly against Taeryung becoming and idol or just in the entertainment industry in general, he just thought dancing and singing was just a hobby of hers. When Taeryung started to train at Nega Network and was in Laboum's lineup, that was the tipping point for him. He didn’t like the fact that she would debuting at the age of 14 with little to no training experience, filing a complaint to Nega Network to Taeryung eventually not debuting with Laboum. Since then, Eunsook gained full custody of Taeryung and Taeryung has been giving Dongjin the silent treatment ever since, only seeing him at events that involve Taeyeon. Many people suggest to her to go to family therapy with him, but Taeryung is heavily against it, she is completely fine with not having Dongjin in her life anymore.







 

이은숙


RELATION Mother.
AGE 54.
OCCUPATION Auctioneer.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ It was clear from the start that Taeryung is a mommy’s girl. So, it was no brainer that she chose Eunsook over Dongjin. When Taeryung got accepted into K-POP Star 2, Eunsook was really supportive of her daughter and even moved to Seoul for the show. After the show, Eunsook found a liking to Seoul and stayed there permanently with Taeryung. She has been with Taeryung through thick and thin, never giving up on her. Taeryung loves her mother a lot, and mentions Eunsook as her inspiration as well as a role model.







 

신태연


RELATION Sister.
AGE 24.
OCCUPATION Dental Nurse.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ There is nothing much different with Taeyeon and Taeryung and other sisters, they got along well despite their 6 year age difference. Having a more stable relationship with Dongjin, Taeyeon first had the same midset as him when Taeryung moved to Seoul. But overtime, Taeyeon became really supportive of her sister. Taeyeon moved to Seoul when she got married, and Taeryung and her talk on the daily as they are closer than ever; mentally and physically.








 

허창현


RELATION Brother In Law.
AGE 29.
OCCUPATION Lawyer.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ Taeryung and her brother-in-law don’t really have a relationship. It’s not that they hate each other or anything, it's just that they have never connected. Changhyun is almost the polar opposite of Taeryung, they are always awkward when they are around each other. Taeryung doesn’t have any interest in getting closer with him.







 

허민해


RELATION Niece.
AGE 3.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ When someone asks Taeryung what she loves most, she would say her niece. Ever since Minhae was born, she always had a special bond with Taeryung. Taeyeon would send Taeryung videos of Minhae dancing to Rose's song, she’s their number one fan.








 

양나현


RELATION Best Friend.
AGE 18.
OCCUPATION University Student.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ Taeryung will always be thankful for Nahyun that she submitted one of Taeryung's videos to K-POP Star without Taeryung's permission. They have been friends for as long as they could remember, and tries to keep in touch despite living on the opposite sides of the country.







 

LABOUM


RELATION Friends.

RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ Her first group, Taeryung loves the members of Laboum and vice versa. The Laboum members treated Taeryung as a baby, even after they debuted. Taeryung supported Laboum since their debut and has no hard feelings towards them, despite what people think. She is close to Solbin and former member Yulhee.








 

ROSE


RELATIONSHIP
 ❃ It’s definitely hard to say whether or not Taeryung gets along with all the members of Rose. When the lineup was finalized, she had a hard time getting along with a handful of them since she was afraid that she was going to get dropped from Rose. But she didn’t. She warmed up to the members pretty quickly after that.

TRAINEE LIFE 2 Years at Nega Network, 1½ Years Independent, 1 Year at Dal Media.
 ❃ Taeryung didn't have a plan after K-POP Star 2, so she was just thrown into training when she started to train at Nega Network. She took little to no breaks, and the breaks she did take, she always incorporated practice into them one way or another. For her skills, she was decent in all vocal, rap, and dance, having showcased a three of them before.
However due to the lack of rap focused trainees, the trainers at Nega Network pushed her into rapping than the other two. Just a few months after arriving at Nega Network, the company let the trainees know of an upcoming girl group that they would debut in collaboration with another company, NH Media. This news was not that effective towards Taeryung because she knew due to her age and training period that she will not make it into this lineup. Well, she did.
The lineup of this new girl group consisted of seven girls: Kim Yujeong, Jung Soyeon, Bae Jinye, Yeom Haein, Ahn Solbin, Kim Yulhee, and Lee Taeryung herself. There was a 8 year between Yujeong and Taeryung as well as a 3 year between Yulhee and Taeryung. Despite this, she got along with everyone and they treated her as she was their younger sister. The group trained together for a couple months before Taeryung was pulled out of the lineup due to her father's request.
After not being able to make her debut, Taeryung was in distraught. She quickly got diagnosed with depression and an anxiety disorder, with somedays not getting out her bed. She preformed poorly when it came to training, until 2015 when Taeryung was let go from the company due to not passing a monthly evaluation. She went back to live with her mom and continued schooling.
Soon after, Taeryung became an independent trainee, working at local business to be able to rent out studios. She also returned to her YouTube, mainly uploading covers and occasionally vlogs. She did this for around a year until she was scouted by Dal Media via a video she uploaded in 2016 and immediately started to train with them.
Taeryung never heard of Dal Media, so she joined the company on a whim. Thankfully, her depression and anxieties were less frequent since leaving Nega Network, so Taeryung had less episodes of panic attacks and was able to actually pass monthly evaluations.
Truthfully, when Dal Media started to begin their process for Rose, Taeryung had little hope that she'll be in the lineup, or be in the lineup just to be pulled out of it once again. But luckily, she was placed in the lineup for Rose, actually debuting for once.


PREDEBUT
 ❃ YouTube ≬ Since she was 11, Taeryung has been uploading covers and 'vlogs' to Youtube. It didn’t last long, though as her friend submitted one of her videos for K-POP Star 2. She took a break from uploading videos since she was on the show and trained at Nega Network. When she became an independent trainee, she started uploading again until she was scouted by Dal Media. She hopes that Dal Media can give her an approval so she can start uploading again on her channel. ≬ 2011-2012, 2016.
 ❃ K-POP Star 2 ≬ For a few months, Taeryung was a contestant on K-POP Star 2. She enjoyed being on the show, despite getting elminated in the 3rd rounds. She isn’t really friendly with any other of the contestants, expect for maybe AKMU's Suhyun, which she occasionally greets when they run into each other. Other that her, she wasn’t that bothered to make friends. Shortly after being eliminated, she signed onto Nega Network. She replaced Shin Jihoon. ≬ 2012-2013.
FUTURE ACTIVITIES
 ❃ Acting ≬ She got interested in acting when she took some acting lessons at Nega Network. She expressed her interest to Dal Media, and they let her act in supporting roles in dramas. Taeryung's acting career isn’t as big as she liked, she just wanted to do it just because. Her first role was Kim Sangah in Bad Papa, which premiered in October 2018. ≬ 2018-202X.
HEADLINES
 ❃ Rose's Terri Reveals why She didn’t Debut with Laboum ≬ People knew that Taeryung trained with Laboum but dropped out last minute. There were some speculations at the time and when Rose debuted that she didn’t get along with the members, but there was no evidence behind the claim from the public. Rose was filming their own variety show where they had an obligatory heart to heart talk, where Taeryung opened up about Laboum. She stated that there was no malice against the members of Laboum and that she dropped out due to her father's request. Following this, she opened up about her relationship with her father. ≬ 202X.

Hello again Jac!

I'm gonna start off by saying I love Arin. I am yet to see a character by you that I don't like. I can really see her being a good fit for Eclipse if she is chosen! I feel like I keep giving you short reviews but there is never anything wrong and your character never fail to be wonderful. So I will also keep this review short and let you know that Arin has been accepted! Thank you for applying!

Hi Jac! I am so excited to see that you have applied to Eclipse as I obviously love your other Dal Media characters, so lets get right into it!

I think Kihyuk is a very interesting character. I really like his back story and like how it shaped him into who he is. I honestly dont have much to say except that he is really great and I cant see anything wrong with him, so, Kihyuk has been accepted!

(Sorry for the short review, I recently started classes so my brain is fried)

Hi Jac! Thanks for submitting another character to Twilight.

I find Kenji really interesting. I really like him as a character and I like that you gave him a unique reason for wanting to become an idol. I feel like DAL Media would be a great company for him if he was in it for the money as the company would have a lot of financial backing (due to the CEO's family) so the trainee debt would be little to none. Overall, I really enjoyed Kenji and thing he would be an interesting character to play around with if chosen for Twilight. I also enjoyed his relationship with Sage and would love to also explore that if he is chosen.

I think by now you may have realised that Kenji has been accepted! Thanks again for applying!

Hey there Jac! Thanks for applying for Twilight. Let me preface this with saying that I am on some pretty strong pain meds so I am sorry if this is short or doesn't make much sense but I am trying my best! That being said, I am really excited to review Mishil so let's get right into it!

I really love Mishil. There is something about her personality that I just really enjoy and makes her feel real. I strongly identify with being a smartass and i feel like that could be really fun to write. I also enjoyed how you have written her background as I have found that some people tend to be a little over dramatic when writing about anything similar to what you have written, but you really have a way of making it feel realistic and not overly fake or dramatic. I am happy you have decided to leave lots of things open since it will give me a lot of chances to explore Misil through writing if she is chosen!

I really do like everything about Mishil and think you have done a wonderful job so I will keep this review short before I start rambling and making little sense and let you know that Misil has been accepted! Thanks for applying again and sorry for the short and not very detailed review.
