hi, lovelies! it's been over a year since i brought in chaerin, so i decided it was time for an updated intro post! a lot has happened within that year, and i felt like the old one was outdated! since this is still an intro post, here's her profile! below the cut, you'll find a more up to date introduction on chaerin! (for tracking purposes, her old intro can also be found here)
first, her background! first born of two girls. father is an accountant, mother a university professor, little sister is a college student (majoring in food science & biotechnology); very average family in all sorts of ways, but a loving one, nevertheless
chaerin’s been into art ever since she was young and was told she had a talent for painting at a young age, and that’s where she was pushed. not against her will, of course, because she enjoyed it as well. this is just to say that it’s pretty much all she’s known in her life since she was like four
a fourth-year art student at hongik university! originally, she was supposed to graduate february of 2024, but she deferred her graduation for a semester because of her status as a trainee! it was a hard decision to make, but she could not find the time to be thinking about graduation and potentially debuting at the same time, so she decided she could pull off graduating for a semester. no longer taking classes though, so she spends most of her time training now
while she never imagined herself as an idol, she's always been yearning for something new and exciting in her life. plus, her family isn't super wealthy, and she knows that her parents sacrificed a lot to put her into art for all those years, so she'd love to return that back to them once she makes her debut
onto her personality! she’s used to doing a lot of things on her own so she’s quite reserved and individualistic. likes to be more of an observer rather than stepping out into the spotlight. she wasn’t spoiled, but i do believe that she had a pretty sheltered life (since she didn’t do much except art from a young age) so she’s pretty nice to everybody. she hasn’t had a reason to be wary of the people around her and stuff like that
genuinely believes in being kind because kind people are the winners at the end of the day. that way, she never has to be ashamed of her actions or words. has a sort of high morality, and she finds it difficult to understand how people think differently from her. if someone disagrees, she gets that it can happen, but she wouldn’t understand why they think that way when she believes that her way of thinking is correct
plotting-wise, she's kind and friendly to most people, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get along with her! a little shy and introverted, so she might not always make the first move, though. however, she's not a huge fan of people who are like bouncing off walls and highly energetic because they seem like too much, but she won't say anything mean. at most, she might just avoid interactions with such people
chaerin's very-much interested in music in all sorts of ways (she plays the guitar and piano), and she has gotten a newfound interest in songwriting as well, so if your muse is into any of those, she'd love to strike up a conversation!
