Family Background: Kyumi's family is a four-membered family. A mother, a father and her older brother, were always very supportive of eachother and loving. Until, her parents found out about Kyumi's dream of being a K-pop Idol. They didn't support her at all. Infact, they discouraged her to the ut-most point where her brother had taken Kyumi away from the house where she cried almost every night. Her brother saw the great potiental she had in her and all the talents she possesed but his parents didn't.
Kyumi and her brother moved out when Kyumi was 15. Her brother than sent her away to become a trainee, where she trained for five years. She wished every night she would get a call from her parents telling her that they miss her and that they love her, but she never heard from them. She talks to her brother whenever she can because he is the reason she is where she is and he's her only family left.

Trainee Backround: Kyumi's brother Joon's friend had founded that the company had a training sign up and told him about it. Joon jumped at the chance for his little sister to finally get her dream to come true and signed her up immediatly. He picked her up one day from school, brought her clothes and other shoes and took her straight there.
Trainee life for Kyumi was both hard and fun. She was surrounded by people who shared the same dream as her. They all worked hard but Kyumi tried to work even harder. She hardly ever talked to her parents and when she got the chance, she would only hear negatives things about where she was and what she was doing. She cried many times, having go through training and feeling alone but when she met her team, she felt like there were still things to fight for and she felt as if Joon was still with her.
