QUICK OOC NOTE ‧ ‧ ‧ this is something i used to do on other muses ( modeled after an old friend ), so i’ll be making the addition here. this is a nice way to keep up with your character and their developments - so i definitely recommend ! it’s fun and interesting to see how your muse grows, and since jiao’s 1 MONTH passed here at legacy, i figured now would be a good time to start. i’ll try to do this often, towards the end of the month, but we’ll see how that goes 👍

♡ TRAINEE LIFE ♡
NOTES FROM THE PAST (2018): jiao auditioned for legacy entertainment not thinking she would give in. she tried, as she feared the wrath of her mother, but was heartbroken when she was accepted and moved to seoul. this adjustment was difficult for her. while she had experience with korean prior to her move, learning to use it everyday was a challenge. she was also on her own for the first time ever, so she faced some behavioral problems in adjusting to trainee life - lowkey hoping she’d get kicked out and sent back home. however, she was too afraid to do anything to bad so she was mainly just lazy pretty much, maybe the occasional minor rule break. notorious for her flings & love for a good party.
CURRENT: she’s definitely calmed down a lot since her first year as a trainee. after being inspired by nana, she decided to take this training a bit more seriously and committed herself to a healthy routine of training and of course partying on the weekends when she feels like it. during class, she’s usually still laid back and has never been one to overachieve or be a kiss ass. never skips training like she used to, and focuses a bit more. career wise, she’s not sure what she’s doing.but her mother thinks she’s there to be an actress; jiao would like to keep it that way.
UPDATED SKILL POINTS ( ❖ )
♡ RELATIONSHIPS ♡
after becoming a trainee, it was unsurprisingly easy for her to socialize and make friends. people like miso, ahin, jongsuk, eunji, jinah, elly, hunji, jueun, shinha, and yeoreum inspire her to be better and house close relationships with the girl. sunhee sparks a drive within her that she didn’t think existed, while jiae makes her want to be irresponsible and reckless.
jiao is confronted with a misunderstanding between her and seolmi, as well as the risky situation of appearing on king’s v-live.
she’s got a bad habit for holding grudges, and seungjae was unlucky enough to find this out in the most odd situation.
jiao kinda sucks with any romantic issue - as seen in her constant string of flings (old and new), alex, and dana who's feelings for her seem to fly right over jiao’s head. she’s always been told to focus on her career rather than relationships and affection, but somehow her relationship with mike has become confusing, at least for her. friend with benefits ended up being way too confusing for her, and she’s kind of lost on what to do.
her mother has come to see her once since her move to seoul, and jiao is disheartened by the fact. at little homesick and missing her mother, the woman is becoming curious as to why it seems she has dropped on her mother’s priority list.

CURRENT FAVORITE SONG ( ❖ )
YOU CAN FIND HER morning trainee schedule for the junior trainees, at the gym, shopping, most likely heading out for lunch because she don’t f with that cafeteria food, in itaewon on saturday nights, probably on mike’s couch
< a festival starter where taesung and @lgcmike prepare for their dance stage >
god must be mocking him right now.
that’s it, that can be the only logical reason for why he and mike are paired up to compete against each other yet again—and for something as major as a dance battle, at that (a skill he’s tricked everyone, even himself, to believe he’s one of the best at). maybe this is his eternal fate: to be constantly sized-up against the likes of michael lau, to which taesung just scoffs—they say you choose your own destiny, but he sure as hell would never choose this.
despite them being placed at odds with one another, the two groups are still expected to prepare for the stage (if you call memorizing short snippets of choreography some kind of preparation) more or less, and while the others are left to their own devices, taesung’s time is better spent boring holes into the back of mike’s head.
“you got that move wrong,” he chimes, clearly utilizing that bad habit of minding other peoples’ business, with a scoff. “if that’s how you’re gonna dance during the festival, then i think my team’s got this one in the bag.”
