ceo & founder
kang jaehyun
Kang Jaehyun was hired as Nova's manager in 2016 during their Cherry Day days. Nova is the first group that Jaehyun has ever managed, and he is the first to admit - he really has no clue what he is doing.
Jaehyun is the type who is easly intimidated. CEO Younghwan uses this to his advantage by placing Jaehyun as Nova's main manager as he can easily get Jaehyun to follow his orders without question. Jaehyun is although a bit of a perfectionist, and the members of Nova all say he is the best at his job, despite his lazy side shining through loud and proud.
Birthdate: March 30, 1992 (27)

- Originally went to college to become a video game designer, he switched his major in 2012 when his father filed for bankruptcy. Jaehyun decided he would start a more stable career to help his father out financially.

nova manager #1
park dongmin
Park Dongmin was originally Cherry Day's body guard in 2016 thanks to his friendship with HM. With the disbandment of Cherry Day, Dongmin was meant to be a body guard to Nova; however with Fantasia realizing Jaehyun couldn't handle the girls on his own, Dongmin was promoted to the title of Nova's 2nd Manager.
Dongmin is a health junky who frequently passes on his health tips to Nova. Dongmin is more strict to the girls than Jaehyun, and often speaks out against CEO Younghwan. He is your typical adult male who works hard and plays harder.
Birthdate: June 11, 1990 (29)
Faceclaim: Sung Joon
Trivia!
- Dongmin often stresses the importance of eating healthy and working out while in your younger years to the members of Nova.
- A gym rat
- Doesn't understand Jaehyun's obsession with video games but is slowly starting to learn to play his pc at least.
- Always trying to get Jaehyun to work out with him.
- 187cm & 73kg
- Blood type AB
- Dongmin has stated multiple times that he strongly dislikes CEO Younghwan, and if he wasn't his boss Dongmin would strangle him.
- Also lowkey has a thing for Seoljin but hides it better than Jaehyun.
- Dongmin is often seen clubbing on weekends after Nova's schedule ends.
- Often tries to get Seoljin to join him. Is harshly rejected.
- Then resorts to Jaehyun as a second choice. Jaehyun also rejects. Anime is more important than friendship.
- Then goes on his own and leaves an hour later after chugging a bottle of soju to forget he is lonely.
- Hear that ladies? Homeboy is LONELY.
- Is in charge of members Circini, Andromeda, Yeeun, and Cygni in Nova.
- Although Dongmin is second in charge, he often steps up and Jaehyun willingly lets Jaehyun be in charge. (Jaehyun needs managing also)
- Is also seen as a older brother figure to Nova, but more of the one that's very over protective and constantly hovers over you.
- Dongmin completed his military service in 2013.
nova manager #2
han seoljin
Han Seoljin served as Gloria's main manager throughout their career. After Gloria's disbandment in 2018, Seoljin was transferred to Nova.
Seoljin is very sharp tongued and quite the quick thinker. She's bold, brash, and unafraid to say what's on her mind. A huge feminist, Seoljin stands up for the members of both Gloria and Nova when they're being treated unjust. However, at the same time, Seoljin is also very strict on the girls making many arguments break out. She just wants to see them succeed, honestly.
Birthdate: November 12, 1988 (31)
Faceclaim: Han Yeri
Trivia!
- Being the only manager to Gloria (besides their driver when events called for one), Seoljin was often called the stressed out mom.
- The stress levels only rose after she joined Nova's management team and realized that they're just a whole mess.
- 169cm & 51kg
- Blood type A
- In Nova, Seoljin is responsible for the new member line, who are much, much younger than the members of Gloria were aside from maybe their debut days.
- A huge generation gap between her and the newest members and honestly has no clue what they're ranting about on social media.
- And she's not even that old, which is the sad part. She really should get out more.
- Loves all her girls even if she is hard on them and some may not like her. She really has a heart of gold - you just have to dig far enough.
- Has been single since 2010. She just doesn't have time to date, or so she insists.
- All work, no play.
- Has often been called "boring" by both Gloria and Nova members.
- Then does something drastic to prove she's still "hip" and "down with the youngsters".
- Is honestly just as big of a mess as Jaehyun and Dongmin, but hides it better as she is a thousand times more mature than both of them combined.
