REST
🧊–return to masterlist ¡! ✥
Tumblr media
"Good day, this is JYP ENTERTAINMENT. 26.12.2021 Lily Hwang of Stray Kids is taking a rest due to worsening panic attacks and anxiety disorder, which is why her activities are suspended for a while. All of Stray kids' next events, comebacks and promotions will be released without her participation until she is fully recovered! We ask fans for understanding and all possible support, she asked you not to worry about her.JYPE will consider the artist's health a top priority and will do everything possible to support Lily's speedy recovery."
Then this statement from the Company shocked everyone and everyone was very upset by this development of events. Hundreds of thousands of letters of support were written to Lily in the bubble, they never forgot about her and encouraged her. MANIAC's comeback came out without her participation, but the students were so upset because Lily was in the teaser and in the video, but she was not in the promo or other songs.Lily appeared for the first time since her return to the bubble in May (01.05.2022), writing two messages:
[🐻]::Y/n!! hi, I feel much better. did you hear that the boys will have a world tour?:) Please visit it! I promise you'll like it (06:19 a.m)
[🐻]::I miss you and the boys, pain makes us stronger (08:32 a.m)
○○○
On the first day of the STRAY KIDS world tour in Seoul, Lily came to the concert with Mingi and Tenshi (she was the only one who was very scared), sitting in the front rows and she was shown on the big screen at the end of the concert, the boys burst into tears and were very happy to see her because they didn't know about her arrival at the concert, Lily also cried, and then she was allowed to go up on stage and they all stood there together and cried,they hugged so much:((( I can say that it was a difficult concert without Lily and the first concert after the pandemic, the boys were very upset and happy to see Stay again, but so tearful because of Lily. (this moment went viral everywhere), (date 05.05.2022)
On July 31, 2022, the video and song TIME OUT were released, with the release of which Lily left the rest, and the students were in great shock and also cried when they saw Lily in the video and heard her voice, everyone was incredibly happy about it. Then Lily wrote in the bubble:
[🐻]::Next to Y/n I am stronger, I promise to work and work and make my baby Y/n happy (11:02 p.m)
[🐻]::War is over (reference to the song) (11:07 p.m)
[🐻]::Oh...do you want for me to stay with you? (11:10 p.m)
[🐻]::During these seven months my life has become better! all thanks to Y/n's support~ (11:12 p.m)
[🐻]:: I missed you too, baby! let's continue to work harder so that we move forward together (11:15 p.m)
[🐻]:: I traveled a lot and went to a psychotherapist, so I felt better... (11:18 p.m)
[🐻]:: My close friends and boys helped me a lot (11:27 p.m)
[🐻]:: I don’t regret that the MANIAC comeback was without me! so Y/n saw the boys' talents to the fullest (11:28 p.m)
[🐻]:: Should I live onair tomorrow??
[🐻]:: I'll carry it out! and we'll have fun! (11:30 p.m)
[🐻]:: And now I'm going to bed! soft dreams, baby 🩷 (11:35 p.m)

Lily suffered all these seven months, she was terribly ill. She did not leave the room, did not eat, and did not communicate with anyone. Even SKZ couldn’t get her out of this state, not to mention Lily’s friends. Then Donghyun arrived from New York and, together with Kiri and Tenshi, began working on Lily’s condition. They organized a tour for her to different countries: Italy, France, Canada, Greece, UAE, Japan, Great Britain, and she also visited the Maldives. Lily even thought about committing suicide if it weren’t for Seungmin, who saw the prerequisites in time and sent Lily along with Chan to a psychotherapist (Lily refused to go alone). She wanted to quit K-pop completely, but her close people stopped her. What about Lily's parents? They didn’t know about it, or rather, Lily’s mother knew and quietly sent her money for treatment, but her father simply didn’t care. he abandoned his daughter back in 2017.
I can say that everyone handled Lily's rest differently, but it was hard. I think Felix and Jongin were the most depressed,Changbin hid his fears within himself , Minho became more irritable and Jisung was anxious without Lily...what about Chan and Hyunjin? They saw Lily most at this time, perhaps she only let them in and sometimes Felix, she didn’t want to see others. Seungmin observed the situation from afar and he was the one who helped her the most, but is not visible.

★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ The members of BELLADONNA have very different backgrounds, however, they are all connected through their organic love of MUSIC and performance. In the guide below, you will get to know the FIVE MEMBERS and how they later formed their band. Trigger Warnings: Addiction, cheating (Haena); Death of a parent, daddy issues (Eulsun); Religious themes, symptoms of depression (Yulli).
Tumblr media
★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
From a young age, KO SARANG knew that she would become someone important. As the oldest child of four, she was a natural leader and was always parading her younger siblings in whatever schemes she created. She would learn how to play the piano from her mother, a music teacher, and that bonded them together. It was their special time and while her other siblings learned, she was the only one that remained interested in it as she grew older. Sarang aced all of her subjects with ease, not needing to apply herself beyond the bare minimum to achieve high marks and instead focused her time on music. Knowing how small the indie scene was, Sarang auditioned for SM Entertainment and passed their infamous SATURDAY audition on the third time.
Though her parents did not want to see her go, they allowed Sarang to join the company in 2017. In 2019, she would be revealed as a new SM ROOKIE and was rumored to debut alongside NINGNING in their newest girl group, which would debut as AESPA in 2020. For unknown reasons, she would not be chosen for the line-up and transfer to Mystic Story Entertainment, one of SM's subsidiaries. Wanting to create a second LUCY, Mystic would send SARANG and two of her fellow trainees to audition for Superband, though only Sarang would make it on the show.
While on Superband, SARANG would audition as a PIANIST and VOCALIST. However, due to BELLADONNA not having anyone that could play the drums, she volunteered to try it out and actually found it to be fun. She would be praised for the switch, however, a lot of work would need to be put into her skills before she would be considered "good". Wanting to prove herself, she remained dedicated and would form a close partnership with fellow contestant JIN JUNSEO, who taught Sarang everything she knows.

★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
KIM WONHUI always wanted to be an idol. She dreamed of sharing the stage with the members of Girls Generation and Twice, her two favorite groups, and looking that beautiful on stage. However, due to her family's poor economic condition, she was unable to join one of the training academies and was going to give up on the dream until being street casted by Superbloom Media in 2015. She was supposed to debut as a member of CELATUM that next year, however, that would fall through as the higher-ups did not believe she was ready. Seeing that she needed something else to help stand out against the other girls, she would learn anything she could get her hands on. From instruments to calligraphy, Wonhui worked day and night to prepare herself in every category of idolhood, even beginning to write her own music in 2018.
However, time seemed to tick on and WONHUI was left in the dust by her company. She made her first public appearance as a trainee on TIMEFIGHTER in 2021, but was eliminated quickly and sent back to the training faculties with no corrections. They just believed that her time had not "come" yet, whatever that meant. She would spend the next two years considering her next moves. The trainee debt was the reason that she stayed, knowing that her parents would not be able to pay such drastic fees and remains under the company, hoping that they would just make her an in-house producer or something.
After EIGHT years of training, Superbloom sent her on Superband to represent their company, though it was never confirmed until after the show had finished airing. Due to this "advantage", many fans believe that BELLADONNA's win was rigged due to Wonhui being under them already and how much sway Superbloom Media had over the show. Superbloom and WONHUI would never acknowledge this, but it is a frequent debate amongst Doves and other fandoms on Twitter.

★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
HAENA BAE was a difficult child for her single mother. Born right as Elena Bae lost her job and her boyfriend, she was forced to return to Seattle, Washington under the care of her parents. She was never able to get into contact with Haena's father again, leaving her truly alone in this world as she struggled to find another job due to the economic crash. She tried to give Haena the best life, however, that was lost on the girl as she spent her entire childhood jealous of her classmates. After begging, she was allowed to rent the school's flute and join their music program while in the third grade, wanting to fit in with her best friends at the time. This desire to fit in would follow Haena as she grew older, leading to very troublesome teen years.
At the age of fifteen, she was invited to her first basement party by an upperclassmen boy and would continue down a tough spiral of partying every weekend. By the time she was eighteen, she was forced to get help by her mother and had to take a gap year from university to stop her habits from developing into an addiction. Her only moment of peace was attending her best friend's garage band performances, where she would learn the bass from IMOGEN, who would later become her girlfriend.
Imogen would become her reason to get help and by 2020, she was completely sober and seemed happy with her life. However, this would be ruined by Imogen cheating while at university, which HAENA chose not to attend for her own health. After months of sulking, she took a trip to visit her mother's sister in Seoul and immediately fell in love with the city. Not long after, she would move in with her aunt and get a job as a English teacher's aid at a local preschool. While there, she would rediscover her love of music and push herself to get back out there. She saw Plastic Flowers during their early days at Cheeky's and knew that she would be up there one day. She signed up for the third season of Superband in their BASS category and due to her unique playing style, would be sought after by many musicians before being taken by Yulli.

★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
KIM EULSUN, born on March 1, 2002, was supposed to inherit her family's travel empire. She was promised the company and much more from a young age by her father, however, when he died in 2015 and left the business in the hands of her older step-brother, Eulsun moved in with her maternal grandparents. The move was hard on the girl as she went from living lavishly to having to help support them and their failing restaurant in the countryside. Her mother had been born into the poor family but due to her intelligence and beauty, made a name for herself in the business world and that was where she met Eulsun's father. However, her mother would die of breast cancer when Eulsun was seven and her father was quick to remarry, fracturing Eulsun's relationship with them. Rather than spending time with his only daughter, she was pawned off to nannies and other caretakers, who seemed to care more about Eulsun than her father did.
While living with her grandparents, Eulsun would learn how to play the piano from her grandfather and discovered that she did have a real passion—music. She would continue learning and discovering new artists, trying to listen to a new album every single day in 2019. However, she knew that music was not going to lead her into a good career path. If she was lucky, she could make it, but there seemed to be nothing for her. She went back to SEOUL to study business and try to recreate her mother's dreams of owning her own beauty company. During her time at university, she would join the band SWEET TRIP, which operated on weekends and was not a serious venture for any of the members until 2023.
Her bandmate, YEEUN, would be the one to propose their appearance on SUPERBAND. She had seen what it had done for bands like Plastic Flowers, The Rose, and Lucy and knew that they were talented enough to appear on the show. Though all four members auditioned to be on Superband, only Eulsun and Yeeun were chosen to represent them on the show. Eulsun would be apart of the GUITARIST category, though she was heavily praised for her vocals from the initial audition.

★⠀⠀ ⁄ ⠀⠀ BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
KWAK YULLI was born on November 22, 2002 in Daejeon, South Korea as the third and final child in her family, which was composed of her parents and two older sisters—Yura and Yulhui. Compared to most of her members, she would grow up well with her mother being an English literature professor at a local university and her father former lawyer but dropped down to paralegal after Yulli was born. Given her parent's professions, it's no surprise that academics were highly praised in their household. However, Yulli would be diagnosed with dyslexia at the age of seven and be placed in a separate reading class to help build her skills. Despite this, Yulli was known for her optimistic and bright personality, becoming a very popular member of her classes due to how kind she was.
As part of an exchange program, Yulli would move to the suburbs of Montréal, Quebec, Canada from the ages of ten to fourteen. Her mother wanted all of her children to have a grasp on the English language and saw immersion as the best way to go about it. Due to her dyslexia, English would prove to be much harder for Yulli than Korean and she would be placed in extra English classes by the school. Though her older sisters raved about the experience and program, the same could not be said about Yulli. She stayed with a very traditional Roman Catholic family, who would place her in their choir program where she learned to sing. Rather than feeling welcomed by the family, she felt like a burden and recalls often feeling left out and made to feel "different" from them.
In 2016, Yulli would return to her parents in Daejeon as a much different person. Rather than smiling brightly and radiating happiness, she would lock herself in her bedroom and blare loud music to drown everything out. She would purchase her first guitar that same year, which became her solace and her prized possession. For years, she would just write poems and the beginnings of lyrics without ever doing anything with them. In 2020, she would tune into the second season of SUPERBAND and begin pushing herself to make more music.
Yulli began posting on every social media website that she could find and formed a small community of fans, primarily female, that loved her raw lyrics and simple instrumentals. When Superband's THIRD season was announced in late 2022, she made it her goal to get on and show everything she had. Her parents, surprisingly, supported her dream after seeing how much happier music seemed to make her than traditional studies. In 2023, she would be introduced to the public in the VOCALIST category of Superband, quickly becoming a fan favorite, and was the mastermind behind the formation of BELLADONNA.

GIRL TALK is a five member fictional girl group under Delphi Entertainment consisting of Soojin, Minji, Holly, Mei, and Yuuri. Starting as a pre-debut project, GIRLISH, in early 2017, each member was introduced to the public through a solo promotional single and dance and song covers. GIRL TALK was set to debut on November 1, 2017 but their debut was delayed due to unknown reasons. They debuted on May 5th, 2018 with the digital single Summer Dream. Their debut was received well by the public, quickly rising their way up to stardom.
Despite their rising domestic popularity, GIRL TALK did not become successful internationally until 2019 with their song Fancy, a mature concept, a stark contrast to their usual bubblegum pop sound while maintaining their upbeat style.
Dubbed the Princesses of K-pop, they are considered one of the most successful Korean girl groups internationally. They are stylistically recognized by their versatile sound ranging from bubblegum pop to girl crush to funk rock.
GIRL TALK is considered to be one of the best live vocal groups in K-pop and is known for their highly synchronized and complex dance routines, having been awarded the Best Dance Performance Award at the Mnet Asian Music Awards two times in a row for their dance performance.

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 59- ISAC 2015 Chuseok Special
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Jen shows off her studio and gets noticed by her celeb crush. BTS plays Smash. Volleyball becomes a new competition for the ladies at ISAC as Jen finds it to be her calling while the guys dominate in running. Jen does a V-Live
Words: 14,000+
Author's Note: Again, not sure if they are still active on Tumblr but also @darlings-illustrated created Jen’s V-Live outfit for this chapter. <3 credit to them! :)
----------
After her outing, Jen spent the rest of the day relaxing in her room, in good spirits. She was grateful for Sam Okyere and his kindness. She was looking forward to seeing him again and even assisting him with his future charity projects.
While she chilled in her room, she felt bored and didn’t feel like doing anything until an idea popped into her head.
Why not broadcast a V-Live? 
Grabbing her phone, she signed in, naming the broadcast, ‘Jammin’ With Smartie’, setting the camera in front of her as she sat on the bed. She made sure the camera showed her entire body while she sat pretzel style.
Immediately viewers began popping in at a rapid rate, surprising her. Guess they really wanted to see her. 
It made her feel good.
“Hey, hey!” she spoke in English, waving as the comments started flowing in
‘JENNIEEEEEEEEE’
‘Ennie! Miss youuuu’
‘Hope you come back to America! We miss you!’
‘Come to London!’
‘QUEEN!’
‘MOM! Finally, we get a V-Live with you!’
Jen started laughing when she read comments from ARMY calling her mom. 
“Mom? That’s new. Ahahaha.”
‘Hi Jennie!’
'Can you speak in Korean?'
"Yeah, I'll go back and forth," she replied in Korean before going back to English.
‘Jen get some rest, it’s late!’
“It’s not that late. I’ll sleep soon. I wanted to see how you all were doing.”
‘Come to Brazil! Brazil loves you!’
“I would love to come to Brazil. It will happen one day!” she guaranteed. “I want to travel more and see more ARMY around the world. Hopefully, we can have a big world tour one day. I definitely want to go to Europe. I always think about Europe when it comes to tours.”
‘Those curls are poppin!’
‘So cuteeeee’
‘I love youuuuu’
“Where are you??’
“Where am I? I’m in my room~!” she responded as she continued to read the various comments. “I was bored so decided to do this and spend some time with y’all.”
‘How are you?’
‘I hope you’re eating well!’
She checked out the number of viewers. “That’s a lot. Over 60,000 already? Sweet. I hope you guys aren’t watching this late at night. Get some shut-eye, it’s good for the soul. And don’t worry, I will be sleeping soon. Yes, I am eating. I’m eating a lot actually. I was kind of stress eating a little bit but I’m fine, now.”
‘Please take care of yourself’
‘Don’t stress!’
‘What did you do today?’
“I’m trying my best. Idol life can be hectic. What did I do today? I hung out with Sam Okyere! I had such a great time with him! He’s mad cool. We ate African food. I never tried it before since I grew up eating Soul Food in my household in America. It’s so good! I'm definitely telling my family to start making African food."
‘Excited for ISAC?’
“Hell yeah, I am. Getting to wrestle and play volleyball? I’m a bit worried about the volleyball. I haven’t played volleyball before so it’ll be interesting to see how I do. But I’ve been practicing and watching YouTube videos for advice. But the wrestling, I’m confident about that.”
‘Can you play the guitar?’
“You want me to play something for you? Sure. For a while now I have been working on a Shawn Mendes song. He’s bae, of course.” she laughed. "I admire Shawn so much. I would love to sing with him one day. Even make a song together. Ah...okay. Let's see...ah, I know. I'll play Stitches for you!" she grabbed her guitar. 
‘Yay!’
‘I love when she spoils us’
'Awwww her bright smile when she spoke about Shawn. I hope they meet!'
‘Yes!’
“I’ve been practicing the song for a while, making sure I get the notes down. I wanted to focus more on the emotion of the song to have a greater impact while singing,” she spoke as she made sure the guitar was tuned up.
As soon as she began the first notes of the song, ARMY noticed a change in her demeanor as she continued to play. They noticed how focused and happy she was when she played the guitar and it looked wholesome to watch.
“I thought that I’ve been hurt before. But no one’s ever left me quite this sore.” she sang softly, strumming along lightly.
‘Her voiceeeee &lt;;3’
‘So, can I ship her with Shawn now?’
‘Getting goosebumps already.’
“Your words cut deeper than a knife. Now I need someone to breathe me back to life.” she continued to sing while her strumming got stronger as she sang out with her voice getting a little louder.
“Got a feeling that I’m going under. But I know that I’ll make it out alive. If I quit calling you my lover. Move on~"
‘Loveeeeee’
‘Stop being my bias wrecker!’
“You watch me bleed until I can’t breathe, shaking. Falling onto my knees. And now that I’m without your kisses. I’ll be needing stitches. Tripping over myself, aching. Begging you to come help. And now that I’m without your kisses. I’ll be needing stitches.”
ARMY noticed that her breath control had improved as she produced a consistent tone while singing smoothly and warmly.
“Needle and the thread gotta get you out of my head. Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead. Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head, get you out of my head. You watch me~!” She stopped strumming and held that note for a few seconds before strumming again, “Bleed until I can’t breathe! I’m shaking falling onto my knees. And now that I’m without your kisses I’ll be needing stitches. I’m tripping over myself. I’m aching begging you to come help. And now that I’m without your kisses, I’ll be needing stitches. And now that I’m without your kisses, I’ll be needing stitches. And now that I’m without your kisses, I’ll be needing stitches.”
She strummed softly for the final note and exhaled. 
“That was fun.” she chuckled lightly and set her guitar down. “How’d I do?” she checked the comments
‘Come thruuuuu sis!’
‘Yassss boo!’
‘Honestly, I’ll be the first to say that I wouldn’t mind Jennie singing me to sleep because her voice is so soothing.’
‘Shawn Mendes needs to see this ASAP!’
‘You did so well!’
‘You make us so proud!’
‘Represent Jennie!’
“Ah...thanks, everyone,” she replied and looked up when she noticed Hobi sticking his head out of her door with a bright smile. “Oh, hey Hobi! Did I wake you?”
“Yeah, I was awakened by a sweet voice. At first, I thought it was Jungkook singing like he usually does in his room but as I walked down the hall, I noticed it was coming from your room. That was you? With the guitar?”
“Uh, yes?” She smiled shyly.
“Whaaaaaa, munchkin, you’re improving.”
“You make me so happy. Thank you.” She pretended to cry, touched by his words.
After her V-Live, she went to sleep while ARMY made various videos of her cover and tried to get Shawn Mendes’ attention on Instagram and Twitter so he could watch her video. 
They knew how much it would mean the world to her if she was able to get noticed by him.
For the past few days, ARMY had tried to get his attention, asking him to watch her cover and to check out her Instagram. They would speak highly of the Bangtan Girl and how much she admired him as an artist.
After remaining persistent and dedicated for Shawn to notice Jennie, they finally reached their goal and began to tag BTS in Shawn’s recent tweet and also tagged Jennie in Shawn’s recent Instagram post.
On Instagram, Shawn reposted a 15-second video of her playing stitches with the caption, ‘Wow, she is amazing! I love this! Who is this girl with the guitar?’
ARMY was quick to flood his comment section, freaking out that he noticed Jennie.
‘Finally you noticed her!’
'AHHHHHHHHHHHH JJennie_JW HE NOTICED YOU!'
'Jennie is about to lose her shit'
'SOMEBODY TAG JENNIE! JJennie_JW'
‘OMG! JJennie_JW look at this!’
‘That’s Jennie! She’s an African American member of the Korean Pop group, BTS. Check them out, they’re great!’
‘Jennie from BTS! She is a former member of Amity! She’s amazing, I’m so happy you noticed her! Her profile is JJennie_JW’
‘I love when my favs recognize each other. This is just made my morning!’
#GirlWithTheGuitar began to trend on Twitter while Shawn’s fans began to also be intrigued by who she was because they were confused as to why ARMY kept commenting about someone named ‘Jennie’ and ‘Miss Bangtan’ on his page.
Meanwhile, with Jennie, she was in Yoongi’s studio with Taehyung. She sat on one of the chairs, spinning around on it.
“Ah, you have a small pimple on your cheek.” Taehyung pointed out and giggled.
“Stop.” She tried to cover it.
“Hehehehe, it’s cute.”
“Stop talking about it.” She groaned.
“Ah, it’s just saying hi.”
“Oh my God, stop talking to it.” She laughed with him.
“I watched your V-Live this morning!”
“Oh, you did? What did you think? Too much? Too little?”
Taehyung smiled. “I loved it! You really like Shawn Mendes, don’t you? You always gush over that guy. Someone has a crush?”
“Ahaha, nah it’s not like that. I just really admire him.”
“So a big crush.”
“No!” she exclaimed as Yoongi walked in and set his bag down.
“Get out Taehyung, we’re about to work.” He called out. 
“Hey! Don’t be so mean.” Jennie scolded the Daegu rapper while Tae frowned. “Tae, don’t make that face. Ugh, see what you do, Yoongi?”
“He’ll live.”
She rolled her eyes. “I’ll hang with you later, Tae. And don’t worry, I will find a way to get you into Cypher.”
Taehyung grinned at her statement, ignoring Yoongi’s protests. After he left, Yoongi and Jen prepared their rap lessons and after a couple of hours, they took a break.
“Smartie, you may want to take a look on Twitter,” he responded, looking up at his phone.
“Something wrong?” she asked, confused, and took out her phone. 
Their notifications were blowing up like usual but something about Shawn Mendes made her stomach drop.
What about Shawn Mendes?
Was he hurt?
Was he coming out with new music?
On BTS’ profile, she realized that one of the members had retweeted his tweet, ‘Jennie, I think your fav noticed you~~ hehehe #V’
Shawn had tweeted a screenshot of her V-Live on the app, ‘BTS_twt This was so good! Wow! Thank you for covering my song &lt;;3’
She let out a scream of excitement and immediately got up from the chair, while Yoongi began laughing at her.
“Holy shi-“ she continued to look at the various screenshots that ARMY had been tagging her in and she realized that he was following her back on Instagram. 
She dropped her phone and ran out that door excitedly as the Daegu rapper’s laughter increased in volume.
His phone buzzed and he looked down to see Namjoon texting him.
Namjoon: I assume Nie Nie realized that Shawn Mendes noticed her and started screaming, running around the building?
Yoongi: As expected
A few minutes later, Jennie ran back into his studio. 
“Got it all out of your system?” she heard the rapper ask with amusement in his voice.
She wiped the tears from her eyes, trying to pull herself together as she picked up her phone. 
“Not all of it!” She responded. “Like you have no idea how big this is! This is crazy!”
She tweeted Shawn back, ‘ShawnMendes OMFG THANK UUUU! I LOVE YOU! You have no idea how much this means to me #Jen’
On her Instagram, she began to film herself for a 15-second video, “G-guys, guys, Shawn Mendes just noticed your girl. He noticed your girl, JW! Miss Bangtan! Jennie! I am on cloud nine~! Come throuuuuuugh! Thank you so much ARMY!”
She posted the video with the caption, ‘IM CRYING! Shawn really just noticed your girl! #Blessed #ThankYouARMY’
“What a kid.” Yoongi chuckled and left to go to the bathroom.
After calming down, she scrolled on Instagram to some of her fan pages that she was happily following and came across a video of The8 from Seventeen talking about her.
He had expressed his interest in meeting her when asked which idols he would like to get closer to. He also mentioned that the other members of Seventeen think she seems like an easygoing person to hang out with, eager to see her at ISAC. 
She has kept her eye on Seventeen for a while, enjoying their music. She’s heard of The8 especially and was aware that Chinese is his first language. She wanted to learn a little more Chinese to be able to speak to him.
Sure, she did not look like anyone’s ideal type around here in Korea with their beauty standards but her personality was more than enough to make her admirable with her kindness and outgoing nature. She always appreciated when other idols spoke highly of her and mentioned that she was doing well in the industry.
Once she liked the video, fans noticed quickly, commenting that she liked the post and hoped that they would meet each other.
“Smartie.”
Jennie looked up to see Yoongi walking in with a familiar face behind him. She widened her eyes and opened her mouth once she caught who was with him.
There stood her sister, Vienna, with an awkward smile on her face. 
“Hey.” she waved.
Standing up, Jennie ran up to her, wrapping her arms around her tightly. “’Enna! What are you doing here!?”
“Rap Monster let me in the building when I reached out,” she responded, pulling away while Yoongi left to give them some privacy. “I uh, came to see you and apologize. And to thank you for what you did for my tuition.”
“The hell? You couldn’t have called?”
She really flew across the country to say Sorry?
“I wanted to see you. Damn, I’m so jetlagged,” the college student exhaled and sat down. “So this is what you go through? Plane after plane? Country after country? City after city? Just to perform? And participate in other activities? Waking up early on top of that? This is...so tiring. Being on that plane for almost a day. Ugh, my acting can’t even compare. I don’t know how you do it, JW.”
Jen let out a chuckle and sat with her. “Tell me about it. My body took months to get used to living in Korea and traveling from place to place for events. I can’t even describe how exhausted my body was when I first started in BTS.”
“I see. Well, you’re still here,” Vienna smiled softly. “Look, I-I’m sorry. For everything. For all those things I said. I was just so frustrated. But there will be plenty of opportunities for me as an actress. Broadway will be in my future real soon. I just know it,"
“Hey, it’s fine. I forgive you. I'm sorry too. I love you. Even if we butt heads at times, nothing will ever change that,”
“Even after all that hurtful stuff, I said?”
“I know you didn’t mean it. Just like I didn't mean the hurtful things I said to you. We're fine."
“I’m lucky to have a little sister like you. I’m really proud of you.”
“And I'm lucky to have a big sister like you. I'm proud of you, too,” she gave her a tight hug and they stayed like that for a while. Pulling away, she asked, “So, shouldn’t you be in class?”
“Shouldn’t you mind your business?” Vienna teased as Jennie rolled her eyes
“So, how long you staying for?”
“Wow, you want to kick me out, already?”
“Well, you really should be in class.”
“You’re joking right?” Vienna stared at her in disbelief.
Jen paused before laughing. “Yeah, I’m joking! Let’s have some fun while you’re here!”
“That’s the Jennie I know.”
“So, does Alani, mom, or dad know about this? That you’re here?”
“Um...not yet.”
“As expected.”
--------
Back at the dorm, the members agreed to have a video game night of playing Super Mario Smash Bros on the Wii U. Jennie sat on the couch with Vienna, Jimin, Taehyung, and Hobi while the rest of the members sat in chairs or on the floor. Jen and Namjoon would occasionally translate to Vienna on what was going on, and the college student was eager to watch the chaos.
Creating a Twitter video, Jen spoke in her Native tongue, “ARMY, we bout to play smash bros. BTS may not be a group anymore after this. Wish us luck because friendships will be lost.”
“Let’s do this thang!” Jimin shouted in English, causing her to laugh as she stopped the video and tweeted, ‘Friendships will be lost...no hard feelings, mkay? #Jen’
For the first match, it was Jennie vs Jimin vs Namjoon vs Jin. They went to the character select menu as the epic video game music continued to play.
“Let me guess, Rosalina & Luma?” Jungkook declared.
“Damn right,” Jen replied and selected them. “I’m at my best when I use them.”
“Ahahaha, for future reference, we may have to kick some people out of Bangtan due to frustrations in this game so let’s try to have a clean and fair fight, all right?” Jin announced.
“We’re choosing the Norfair stage.” Jimin picked.
“NO!” Jen yelled.
“YES!” Namjoon yelled back
“I hate that stage! We just started playing, can we choose a more sane and civilized stage?” Miss Bangtan pleaded
“Nope! Suffer.” Namjoon laughed evilly.
Jennie shook her head in disbelief. “This is so uncharacteristic of you. I am appalled.”
3!
2!
1!
GO!
“Wait! Wait! I wasn’t ready!” Jin yelled as his character, Luigi, began to get punched around by Jimin who giggled hysterically.
Jennie decided to go on a defensive route and stay away from all the fighting until she found an opening, watching the character’s movements.
“No defensive this time, Jen Drop.” Namjoon’s character, Sonic, went right after hers as they began fighting around.
As the game went on, Jimin started laughing when his character, Yoshi, accidentally fell off the map.
“How?!” Taehyung laughed at him with Jungkook.
“It was an accident!” Jimin exclaimed
Meanwhile, Jennie managed to kick Jin off the map to eliminate him until he could respawn again.
Jin frowned. “Why, Jennie? Why would you do this? And stop taunting me, Jimin!” The oldest member yelled over their laughter.
Before they knew it, the giant lava wave began to come up to the screen while Jennie managed to kick Namjoon out of one of the safe areas so she wouldn’t get hit. But suddenly he paused the game
“Hey! We are not doing this, you can’t do that!” she shouted.
“What are you talking about!?” Namjoon shouted back, trying to look innocent.
“Stop pausing the game!” 
“I accidentally pressed pause!”
“Stop lying!”
Namjoon unpaused the game and managed to get into the safe area with her while the lava wave came through. Unfortunately for Jin, he spawned just in time for his character to get hit again, knocking him out of the match again as everyone laughed at him.
“This is how you treat the oldest?” Jin asked.
Near the end of the round, Jennie and Namjoon were the final ones in the match, with Namjoon occasionally trying to find slick ways to cheat by messing with her controller and pausing the game constantly to distract her. The lava wave in the game came once again and he managed to make her character face its wrath, to win the match.
‘GAME! The winner is! Sonic!’
“Looks like I won!” He happily announced
“What is you talkin’ about!?” Jennie yelled. “Friggin cheater!”
Next was Yoongi vs Jungkook vs Taehyung vs Namjoon, who battled each other in the Final Destination stage. After giving her controller to Taehyung, Jen watched as Jungkook used Mario to trash his opponents.
“Can you at least go easy on me!?” Namjoon exclaimed.
“I don’t think that’s happening,” Yoongi replied.
With no surprise, the Golden Maknae won the match and proceeded to take on Hobi, Taehyung, and Jimin this time. Before Jen knew it, it was her turn to play again. She ended up groaning when she watched Jungkook select Ganondorf as his character.
“Why?” She complained. “Why would you do this? I hate playing against him, he’s so damn hard!”
“Exactly why I picked him.” The Golden Maknae smirked, still proud of his winning streak. 
He had won four games straight.
She rolled her eyes and selected the Wuhu Island. As the match began, the players continued to fight around the platforms that were moving occasionally.
“Stop trying to take me out, Kook!” She attempted to evade his attacks before he could take her off the map. “I hate you, he got me struggling over here with this character.”
Unluckily for her, her character fell into the water and sank down, getting taken out as she rolled her eyes.
Hobi, playing as Ryu from Street Fighter, begins to shout, “Hadoken! Hadoken! Hadoken! Hadoken! Hadoken! Ha-“
“Shut up!” Yoongi shouted, causing him to squeal in surprise.
As the match went on, Jungkook caught Jennie with his final smash as she angrily handed the controller to Namjoon. 
“Fuck outta here!” She snapped while Jungkook laughed hysterically.
It was down to Jungkook and Hobi. The members mainly cheered on Hobi because they wanted to see Jungkook lose.
“Did he get him?! He did!” Jimin yelled when Hobi hit Jungkook with the final smash, beating him as everyone cheered.
“You sure you don’t want to play?” Jen asked Vienna.
“Why not?” She took Jungkook’s controller after Jen told him to give it to her. ”I don’t know how to play, though.”
After Jen told her the basic moves, Vienna chose Kirby to go up against Yoongi, Hobi, and Taehyung. They battled at Hyrule Castle 64 as the main theme of The Legend of Zelda played.
“W-wait stop falling off the edge of the map. Jump up! ” Jen laughed and tried to coach her sister. 
After a few moments, she continued to get the hang of it, taking out Yoongi’s Pikachu character.
“What? That connected?” Vienna asked, bewildered.
“You knocked him out of the map but the battle isn’t over yet, keep fighting.” Jen encouraged.
“That’s some disrespect, right there,” Vienna complained when her character was taken out the map by Taehyung.
“Ah, fuck this game!” Yoongi rage quit and handed the controller to Jin instead so he could take over. He got frustrated when he kept getting beaten down by everyone.
“Really, hyung?” Jimin giggled.
“He’s just a little upset.” Namjoon teased.
When Vienna suddenly realized that she won the game, beating Taehyung, she responded in shock, “Wait, I won?!”
“Good job!” Taehyung happily said, placing his hand out for her to high five him, while the rest of the members applauded her efforts.
“Thank you! Good game!” She beamed and turned to Jennie. “That was fun! You’re in good hands here. I like their vibe, up close and personal. It’s like you’re not away from family.”
Jen returned her smile and nodded. “Thanks, Vee. I agree.”
“All right, let’s play teams now,” Jimin announced.
“I call Jungkook.” Jennie declared, high fiving the Golden Maknae.
“NO!” Namjoon and Jimin shout.
“Noooooooooo~!” Taehyung and Hobi complained
“Absolutely not.” Jin shook his head
“Hell no,” Yoongi added.
“And why not?” Jungkook asked with irritation while Jennie scowled at the members’ disapproval of her choice of partner.
“No JenKook for this because you always win together. Change it up.” Namjoon demanded which caused the 97 Liners to look displeased by their demands.
“I call Jennie!” Taehyung shouted and clung to her.
“What...?” Jungkook frowned, narrowing his eyes at the 95 Liner. “How come he gets to-“
“And I call Jungkook~!” Jimin hugged him as Jungkook let out an exasperated sigh. 
Jen shot Jungkook an apologetic smile and prepared to play.
Jennie and Taehyung battle against Jin and Namjoon, easily getting a win when Jen took out both of her opponents with Rosalina & Luma’s final smash.
“No! No!” Jin complained
“OP! That is OP! So overpowered!” Namjoon shouted.
Miss Bangtan danced in victory with Tae, ignoring their protests, “Hey! Hey! Hey!”
As an hour went by, Jimin spoke, “I want to see Jungkook and Jennie battle each other.” 
His idea made the 97 Liners' interest rise as they glanced at each other.
“I’m down, are you?” Jen asked.
“Bring it on.” The Golden Maknae responded.
Jennie chose the same character while Jungkook chose Shulk. For their first battle, they chose the Gaur Plain stage as the theme played.
3!
2!
1!
GO!
As soon as the fight began, Jennie and Jungkook clashed, trying to get as many hits as possible while avoiding falling off the map. Jungkook managed to juggle Jennie up in the air with perfectly timed strikes before blasting her off the map. A confident smirk came across his lips as he waited for her character to respawn.
Jennie kept calm, making sure to keep a cool head while fighting back. Her heart began to race faster as they continued to play, aiming to win. The members watched them game keenly, with no words spoken as they watched them back and forth.
Jungkook managed to knock her off the map to win the game as she roughly ran a hand over her face.
Frustration was clear on her face for a moment before she got calm again. They played again, picking the same stage. Jen glanced at the top of the screen to see and hear, Mechanical Rhythm, playing in the background for the stage, setting the mood for a more aggressive gameplay
“And she’s getting mad.” Jungkook teased, trying to get under her skin.
Jennie decided to ignore him and remained focused. 
All that was heard was the rapid button mashing and battle cries of their characters. Once she began to continuously strike his character off the map, the Golden Maknae began to become vigilant of the direction of the battle.
'She got this,' Vienna thought as she watched her sister focus.
"See ya!" Jen lightly said once she swiftly got behind his character and kicked him straight to the sky for a finishing blow.
"Shit!" Jungkook shouted.
‘GAME!’
“YES!” she shouted, standing up and fist pumped.
“AHHHHHHHHH!” the members yelled, jumping up and down while Vienna grinned and applauded.
The winner is, Rosalina & Luma!
The Golden Maknae was visibly disappointed by his loss, remaining silent while everyone celebrated her victory.
“Final round! Who will win?” Jin laughed
“That was just luck. I let you win.” Jungkook responded.
“We’ll see about that in the final round,” Jen replied.
For the final round, they fought furiously, both equally matched. Once they saw the smash ball spawn, they aimed to hit it. She managed to destroy the smash ball just before him and caught him in Rosalina’s final smash. She watched as Luma expanded bigger and started to repeatedly attack Jungkook’s character, boosting up his percentage rate and then he was blasted out of the map
GAME!
“WOO!” She jumped up.
“OH MAH GOD!” Jimin yelled while the rest of the members started yelling and jumping up and down with her
“She beat Jungkook!” Jin celebrated
Jungkook placed his controller down and huffed, displeased at his loss while some of the members teased him by shaking him while laughing at him. 
Jennie took a seat right next to him on the carpet with her phone in her hand. She took a victory selfie with a bright smile on her face with an annoyed Jungkook in the background. 
She tweeted, ‘#Bodied’
Standing up, Jungkook grabbed a pillow and tossed it across the room before going straight to his room while everyone continued laughing
“Ahahahahaha! Yooooooo! He tossed the pillow!” Vienna cackled. “He’s so mad.”
After another hour of gaming, everyone decided to head off to bed. Jennie let Vienna sleep in her bed while she took a visit to Jungkook’s room, wondering if he was still upset that he lost. She’d be feeling the same way since they both enjoy winning.
Who doesn’t like to win?
Shutting his door after walking inside, she saw him sulking while playing on his phone. He was still feeling bitter about the loss.
“So, we not friends, now?” she teased and took a seat on his bed. 
Instead of replying, he ignored her and placed the covers over himself.
“I hope you know that won’t get rid of me.” she grabbed his covers and got in the bed with him, facing his back. He sighed and tried to move away but she moved against him, hugging him from behind. “We still not friends?”
Ignored again.
She suddenly pressed her soft lips to his cheek, taking him by surprise. 
“How about now?” she asked but didn't get a response. 
The Golden Maknae felt his cheeks warm up but he continued to be stubborn while pondering if she’d kiss him, again. Seconds later, he felt those lips against his cheek repeatedly.
“Now?” She asked again.
Kiss.
“Now?”
Kiss.
“How about now?”
Kiss.
“Now?”
Kiss.
“Now?”
Kiss.
“What about now?”
Kiss.
“How about now?”
Kiss.
“Now?”
It was getting harder to ignore her as he was greeted by her kisses all over his face. He was losing the battle in fighting the big grin appearing on his face.
“I see that smile! Now answer, we still friends?” she spoke and he tried to ignore her again. “I’ll stay here all night if I have to. I guess I have to be the big spoon, so be it. So, we still not friends? I know you hear me.”
She laughed, snuggling up against him tightly as he started forgetting about his anger from losing the game.
Jungkook sighed and turned around, wrapping an arm around her to bring her to his chest. 
“I can’t stay mad at you...” He grumbled.
“Good. Now good night.” She snuggled against him.
“Y-you’re staying?”
“And having to deal with Vienna’s wild sleeping? I think not. Besides I like sleeping with you. You’re so warm and comfortable. Like a friggin human heater. Unless you want me to leave-“
“Stay, please,”
The next morning, Jungkook woke up with Jennie sleeping on his chest. He briefly watched her sleep and smiled. He pondered what it’d be like to wake up to this every day if they were a couple. Good morning kisses were guaranteed as well as him trying to make her stay in bed with him.
Gently moving her, he got out of bed and placed the covers on her. Stretching his arms, he headed out of the room, noticing that Jin already made breakfast because of the smell of food. Saying their good mornings, Jungkook grabbed a plate and took it back to his room, placing it on his nightstand for Jen to eat.
When he went back into the kitchen, he noticed Vienna sitting by the table, eating with Jin while trying to speak English with him.
Vienna noticed Jungkook and smiled warmly. 
“Hey. Morning.” she greeted while Jin went to make plates for the members when they woke up.
“Good morning!” Jungkook greeted while smiling shyly.
She typed something in her phone and slid it to him. He looked at it and it read, ‘Sorry for the language barrier. I don’t know Korean but found this app to help translate. I’ll cut right to the chase. There’s been a question I’ve been wanting to ask you since I met you. You like my sister, don’t you?’
He looked up, surprised, and averted his eyes, looking shy. 
That immediately gave her an answer.
She chuckled and typed something else on her phone before sliding it back to him.
‘I’m not angry. I’m happy. I love my sister and I would do anything for her. And watching you...I see that your feelings are genuine and that you deeply care for her. You’ll make a cute couple. You have my full support. :)’
He read and looked up, nodding. “Th-thank you.” He responded softly.
“You’re welcome,” she replied and went back to eating.
After breakfast, Jennie and Vienna hang out in Seoul to bond. When they were shopping at a local store, Jen had found an emoji head and tried it on. 
Vienna thought it was funny and took a photo, posting it on her Instagram with the caption, ‘My heart &lt;;3’
Tumblr media
Not long after, Alani facetimed Vienna. “Oh gosh, I guess she saw the post.” Vienna laughed and accepted the call. 
The screen revealed Alani shaking her head while Jennie popped up next to Vienna, waving.
“Yo, I hate y’all...skipping class, Vienna? Leaving ME to present our project!?” Alani yelled. “Ima kill you when you come back! Are you kidding me!?”
“Wait you left Alani with your project?” Jen exclaimed
“Well...I mean...I did my part.” Vienna grinned sheepishly
“Yes, this girl left me to present alone!” Alani yelled angrily.
“It’s good practice for what you want to do.” Vienna shrugged. “Don’t be a snitch and tell mom or dad. I’ll be home soon.”
“I cannot believe you! I could’ve gone with you!”
Jen was surprised by her statement while Vienna laughed. “That wasn’t what I was expecting.” 
"Hey! I can be rebellious, too!" Alani exclaimed. 
------
Later that day, an African American female college student hung around Dunkin Donuts, filming a vlog for her YouTube channel. She was with two of her American friends, a guy and another girl, who sipped on their coffee, eating breakfast sandwiches.
“Hey guys, we are back with another video. It is day 3 of us being in Seoul, and we’re here eating Dunkin Donuts. Say hi!” she panned the camera to her friends and they rambled about their excitement for their upcoming semester of studying abroad.
While her friends were talking, she turned to do more people watching but froze when she noticed Jennie.
“Wait a minute is that-oh my God, guys, I think that’s Jennie from BTS.,” she said quickly with a whisper. She panned her camera to Miss Bangtan and Vienna who were waiting for their order. “What the heck is she doing here!?”
Her two friends widened their eyes and covered their mouths. 
“Holy sh-no way is that really her?” her female friend exclaimed as their hearts started racing.
“Guys, we are in the same building as Miss Bangtan, how great is this?” her guy friend responded.
“Should we say hi?” the Youtuber pondered.
“No! We should be respectful.” Her female friend disapproved.
“And miss an opportunity to say hey to our favorite K-pop idol? Hell no, I want to say hi. We’re not screaming in her face or anything.” her male friend said.
“I dunno...should we?” the Youtuber wondered.
“We should do it.”
“Won’t it be rude?”
“Yelling and screaming in excitement in her face is. But as long as we’re not too crazy, I honestly don’t see what the problem is with approaching your favorite idol.”
“Jennie looks so mad though, should we approach her?” the female friend added.
“Remember that Jen always says that she has a resting bitch face?” the Youtuber brought up.
“True...”
The Youtuber handed her friends the camera and she got out of her seat, making her way to Jennie. Butterflies were in her stomach as she inched closer to her idol. She even went over what she planned to say in her head.
When the Youtuber watched Jennie and Vienna turn around, she froze as she locked eyes with Miss Bangtan. 
“Um-I uh, annyeongh-hello-haseyo-um-i uh-hi.” She stuttered, trying to say hello.
“Hi.” Jennie let out a chuckle. “You good, girl?”
“I can’t even speak, right now. If I can’t even speak in my own language, what makes me think I can speak in Korean?” the fan sighed. “I’m sorry, I just wanted to say hi, I can’t believe you are in front of me. I’m trying to create a Vlog for YouTube and then you showed up, throwing me off guard with your beauty and I’m just embarrassing myself in front of you.”
“Awww thank you! You don’t have to be so nervous. You’re fine! I encourage fans to say hi!” Jen reassured while the girl’s two friends appeared next to her, nervously saying hi. “How are you guys? You eat this morning?”
“Yes, we did. We’re college students. Studying abroad.”
“Wow, really? When did you come to Korea?” 
“A few days before to know our surroundings until it’s time for the Fall semester to start.”
“Wow, enjoy it to the fullest. I always hear that some people want to get closer to their favorite K-Pop idols and all while being here but still take time to learn the culture and go sightseeing. Learn the history and even more of the language. It’s a beautiful place and South Korea isn’t just about K-Pop, you feel me?”
“Definitely. You inspired me to study abroad here. I was always nervous to step out of my comfort zone and go to another country. But when you did it, especially at a young age, away from family, it motivated me. This is my second time studying abroad. I went to Spain last summer. I’m glad I did it, I’m learning a lot about myself and trying new things. Now I’m a senior in college, here in Seoul.”
“Wow, that means so much to me. It’s good to get out there, you will learn a lot. I always think it’s fascinating to learn about other cultures. Especially the food, that’s always a plus. Do you know some Korean?”
“Only the basics.” the YouTuber’s female friend responded while their guy friend agreed.
“I’m at an intermediate level but I’m so nervous to be in front of you, I couldn’t show you my Korean skills or even speak in proper English.” the Youtuber responded which made Jennie laugh at the way she said her statement.
“We managed to grab seats for ISAC, too!” the male friend beamed
“No way, for real? That’s dope. Make sure you cheer on Bangtan.”
After she took photos with the three students and did a quick shoutout when being filmed for the vlog, Jennie offered them some of her munchkins and wrote encouraging messages on their notebooks with an autograph.
‘Don’t stay in your dorm during your semester. Go out, take the train and travel around South Korea!’
‘This is a great experience to learn more about yourself and another country’s culture. Enjoy every second of it and have a blast.‘
‘Cherish the people you meet along your journey here in Seoul. Learn something new while you are here.’
-----
Just before the ISAC event, Big Hit released a Bangtan Bomb called, ‘Training Smartie for ISAC 2015’
The video contained multiple clips of the members overexaggerating and eagerly yelling words of encouragement while training her.
As she lifted weights, the members would yell encouraging words such as, “Let’s go smartie!”, “Let’s go! Feel the power!”, “Believe in the power!” and she managed not to laugh at their yells as they jumped up and down.
For a bonus clip, Jennie was seated at the table with Suga and Jungkook next to her. She began eating a big plate of Lamb Skewers while Suga and Jungkook cheered her on.
“Eat!”
“You got this! You got this!”
“Chew it well!”
“You must eat well for wrestling!”
--------
On the day of the event, Bangtan arrived, already in their assigned outfits while Vienna walked with Jennie.
“I don’t know what the hell is going on. What are they saying? And why do they keep staring? It’s starting to piss me off-excuse me don’t touch my hair!” Vienna exclaimed.
Jennie cringed and pulled her away. She turned to one of the staff members and bowed slightly. 
“Please don’t touch our hair without our permission. It’s rude, all right?” she responded in Korean.
“Is that your real hair?” the staff member asked.
“Yes. It is our natural, real hair,” she responded as they looked amazed and confused.
As the two sisters walked away, Vienna mentioned, “I don’t want no one looking at me cross-eyed. It’s rude to stare.”
“I mean...you’ll get used to it. It can be annoying,"
Around 300 idols made of ten teams were participating today and it was packed with various fandoms supporting their favorite groups. Once Jennie escorted Vienna to sit with the Big Hit staff on the seats, she waited for the event to start.
She stood with Bangtan backstage, waiting for their team to be called out so they could walk out.
“Now the players are entering.” The commentators announced.
“Team Female-vengers: Kara, Rainbow, Dal shabet, EXID, Minx, GFriend.” was the second team announced.
“Ah, Hayoon~.” Jennie beamed when she saw her happily walk out with G-Friend.
“How you feeling?” Rapmon stood next to her.
“Nervous but excited too. I really hope I do well in these two games. Wrestling and volleyball? I trained as hard as I could for this. I have a great feeling about this ISAC.”
“You’ll make Bangtan proud no matter what happens. Just keep a cool head and remember what we told you.”
“Ditto.”
“Team Who’s your boss: Noel, Wonder Girls, Jeong Jinwoon, Changmin, Lee Hyun, MissA, Baek A-yeon, BTS, Bestie, GOT7.” was announced next as they walked out. 
BTS walked out with big smiles on their faces, while Jennie looked on amazed at how many people showed up this time.
On the electronic display, it showed various idols. When it showed Jennie, who wasn’t aware that she was shown at first, ARMY screamed loud and proud. Jin nudged her and pointed up at the screen. She looked up and widened her eyes, chuckling before waving.
The fact that she was on the same team as Wonder Girls was astounding and she was even on a volleyball team with two of the members. It’ll be a great experience.
After saying the oath, the event started with Women’s Ssireum. There were teams consisting of three members and they played the best out of three. The time of play is one minute and 30 seconds. Jennie was teamed up with Baek A-Yeon and Haeryung from Bestie. They were stretching together and talking strategy.
For the preliminaries, Kyoungri from Nine Muses went up against Hyerin from EXID for the first match. Jennie was standing around with Bangtan, focused as she watched them closely.
“Breathe,” Namjoon said encouragingly behind her and placed his hands on her shoulders. “Don’t be discouraged. They’re not ready for Miss Bangtan.”
“Thanks.” she smiled and they took a seat.
Jungkook sat next to her as they watched closely at the two wrestling. Hyerin had attacked by effortlessly using her feet to trip Kyoungri down in 2.06 seconds.
“You see how she goes for the legs?” Jungkook pointed out. “She aims to trip her opponents. Watch your feet if you go up against her.”
“All right,” she responded.
“Do all that you can to stay on your feet. When you see an opening go for the takedown,”
Throughout the entire round of Nine Muses and EXID, Jungkook pointed some stuff out to pay attention to, mentioning strategies on how to take on the girls. Fansites that attended ISAC, filmed the BTS members and updated their Twitter accounts on what was going on. Once they snapped a photo of JenKook watching closely, with Jungkook whispering strategy in her ear, they tweeted the photos with the caption, ‘Mentor and student. JenKook look focused!’
Fans would immediately tweet,
‘97Liners, I ship!'
'If he whispered in my ear, I would’ve DIED! How can she just sit there so calm?'
'Jungkook is such a great mentor!'
'There is no way she was that calm when you have the golden Maknae whispering in your ear’
'He was probably giving her advice on the wrestling. Y'all thirsty! It ain’t that deep!’
Matches such as Girl's Day vs AOA, Apink vs Red Velvet, Tara vs Secret, and Mamamoo vs Sistar occurred until it was time for Jen’s team to go up against G-Friend. AOA, APink, T-ara, Nine Muses and Mamamoo all advanced to the semi round and it was down to either G-Friend or Bestie/Baek A-Yeon & Jennie. Umji, Eunha, and Yerin represented G-Friend in this match.
“First we have the plucky Miss Bangtan representing BTS and is teaming up with Baek A-Yeon and Haeryung. Last year, she had a running relay and fell down.” the commentators recapped, showing her falling on the screen.
The sight of her falling, caused Jen to roll her eyes, seeming irritated at the sight. They were doing her dirty because she fell. It was over and done with. 
“They really bringing up this crap again?” she grumbled under her breath, shaking her head.
She stepped up on the platform while Yerin waited for her with a bright smile since they were great friends. The two winked at each other before giggling.
“Go, Jennie! Go, Yerin!” Hayoon, along with the other G-Friend members cheered. 
Jen exhaled and glanced at Jungkook who gave her a reassuring smile.
“You got this. Remember what I told you,” he mouthed and she responded with a curt nod and turned back to Yerin.
The two of them bowed to each other and positioned themselves while kneeling.
“JENNNIEEEEEEEEEEE~!” Jimin yelled with Taehyung, applauding.
“Munchkin! Munchkin! Munchkin!” Hobi chanted while Rapmon and Suga laughed with one another, feeling second-hand embarrassment.
“Miss Bangtan has quite the fanboys, it seems. Who will win? Jennie or Yerin?” the announcers wondered.
Once the whistle blew, Jennie immediately used her strength to lift Yerin high in the air and slammed her down on the mat. 
Jungkook slapped his hands together and stood up with a big grin on his face, fist pumping.
“Yes!” he yelled.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!” Bangtan jumped up, applauding her victory while ARMY and the rest of Bangtan supporters began screaming for her.
Yerin started laughing, covering her face while Jennie helped her up. 
“You all right, sis?” she hugged her.
“Yes, I’m fine. You’re so strong.” Yerin giggled.
“Wow! That power!” the commentators exclaimed as they went to a slow-motion replay. “The strength of Miss Bangtan should not be underestimated!”
“Winner! BTS’ Jennie!” was announced as male idols watched the performance, surprised and mesmerized. 
Some were whispering to themselves about her and smirking in approval.
“Atta girl!” Zico from Block B, shouted, cheering her on with the rest of the Block B members.
GOT7 also became her cheerleaders as Bam Bam stared at her with heart eyes, placing a hand over her heart. 
“I think I’m in love,” Bam Bam mentioned to Jackson, who cackled at him, slapping his arm.
As the fansites filmed videos and posted it on their social media, as fans commented,
‘Some of the boys look pleased’
'So who is gonna be the next idol to speak on how much they admire Jen? Cause some of them are staring hard af and I'm here for it'
‘Hahaha some of the guys look like they wanna marry her’
‘Bam Bam watching with that pleased look on his face, ahahah.’
‘Sexy, beautiful and powerful! Go gurl!
‘She FLEW HER DOWN! DAMN’
‘The girls’ faces hahaha they look so scared to face her now’
‘Look at her face in the beginning! She looked like, “Oh shit, I’m dead.’
‘I’m ready to see Jennie at Wrestlemania now.’
‘She took that so seriously ahaha.’
‘Can Jennie throw me like that too!?’
‘Force to be reckoned with! She didn’t come to play! She definitely redeemed herself from last time.’
‘How did she get so strong!? OMG Jungkook what have you been teaching her!?’
‘Flipped her like pancakes. Didn’t even last two seconds!’
‘She-she just picked her up and slammed her down in 2.0 seconds!’
‘I blinked and Yerin was on the mat. What happened!?’
‘I love how the guys are smiling so hard.’
‘That Captain America strength right there! Miss Bangtan 100%! Represent us!’
Jennie was smiling brightly at the cheers and applauds for her efforts as she bowed and waved. 
After leaving the mat, Hayoon ran up to her to hug her. “That was amazing!” she said and started giving her repeated kisses on her cheek.
After speaking with G-Friend, Jennie went back to Bangtan who had given her high fives and compliments such as, “Well done.” And “You’ve worked hard.”
“You did it!” Jungkook high fived her and pulled her to his chest for a warm hug.
“We did it.” she corrected him as she wrapped her arms around his back. The rest of the members joined in for a group hug before sitting back down to watch the rest of her team wrestle.
She cheered on Baek A-Yeon as she went up against Umji and managed to slam her down on the mat to make her team advance to the semi-round. 
“Yeah!” Jennie jumped up and ran up to Baek A-Yeon with Haeryung to celebrate their advancement.
As the last round started, Jennie sat back down with Taehyung wrapping his arms around her from behind, sitting behind her. Jimin sat in front of her, laying his back between her legs while Jungkook hugged Taehyung from behind.
They watched as Baek A-Yeon went up against Sung-a from Nine Muses and lost the match when she was slammed down. 
Jennie stood up and walked to the mat, preparing to wrestle Sojin. They bowed to each other and got in position.
As soon as the whistle blew, Sojin tried to catch her off guard by going after her legs but Jennie stood her ground and lifted her up to slam her down within five seconds.
“Sorry.” Jennie grinned and helped her up while Sojin reassured her that she was fine.
The fansites had filmed Jungkook smiling proudly and in the end, Jen’s team had won a Bronze medal for their efforts when Haeryung fell short against her opponent. After they received their bronze medals, Haeryung began to cry. 
“Wait, why are you crying?” Jennie went to console her with Baek A-Yeon.
“I let the team down. I’m sorry,” she responded, sadly.
“Hey, you did not let us down. We tried our best and we had fun. Thank you for your hard work. You’ve done well, girl. Don't even worry about it.” she reassured her, wiping her tears as the fansites filmed their conversation.
The three ladies join in for a group hug, thanking each other for a job well done for wrestling.
When the interaction was posted on Twitter, people praised Jennie's kindness and sportsmanship.
While soccer began, Jennie chilled with Bangtan, taking out her bun. Before she prepared to fix it, Taehyung grabbed her hair tie and got behind her, fixing her bun for her. She was surprised at how delicate he was to not hurt her. He placed her hair in a high bun and got in front of her to place a strand of curls on each side. Once he was done, he patted her head and smiled.
She took out her phone and checked it out. “This looks really good, Tae.”
Wandering around after catching up with some idol friends, Jennie decided to finally approach The8, greeting him in Chinese. 
“I only know a little bit of Chinese but I will try to learn more so there can be less of a language barrier between us.” her Chinese was broken but he smiled at her efforts and managed to understand her clearly.
‘Wow...handsome.” he responded in English which caused her to chuckle
“Beautiful.” she corrected.
“Sorry, sorry.” he bowed, feeling embarrassed.
“It’s all right. Can you recommend me some Chinese dishes I should try? I love Chinese food.” 
“Yes, of course!” he started naming some of his favorite dishes. 
As they spoke, Joshua approached them and greeted them.
“Hey! Great job on the wrestling.” Joshua said in English.
“Oh, thank you! I had a blast. You’re Joshua, right?”
“Yeah, it’s nice to finally meet Miss Bangtan. I’m actually from Los Angeles.”
“Ah, west coast. I’m from the east. East side is better just so you know.” she teased and they shared a laugh. “The both of you two are so cute.” she pointed at the both of them.
“You’re cute, too. The8 is really fond of you. He always talks about how kind and hardworking you are.” he gestured while The8 was looking at them back and forth, confused since they were speaking in English.
“I saw the video. It always gives me a giddy feeling when people tell me that. It makes me feel really good. Hey, can I have your Kakao Talk?”
“Yeah, of course.” he took out his phone
“I want your Kakao Talk too, The8.” she gestured to him and he took out his phone. 
After getting each other's Kakao Talk, Jennie continued to bring The8 into their conversation.
“Joshua also plays the guitar. We saw your V-Live. You were great.” The8 smiled.
“Really? Thank you! Oh gosh, I feel so embarrassed, I didn’t think some idols would watch it too.” she responded.
As she continued to wander around, she even met Yeeun from CLC, remembering that Yeeun was eager to meet her. They compared their classes for the upcoming school year and noticed that they’ll be sharing a few classes together. They will definitely have more time to hang out and get to know each other.
Throughout the event, Hayoon would cling to Jennie, hugging her from behind, while she laughed.
“Why are you affectionate, today? You must want something.” she assumed, since last time she wanted some of her smarties.
“No, I’m just happy to see you. I haven’t seen you in a while.” Hayoon replied.
While she was being hugged, Jennie would look around at the crowd and noticed fans wearing USA clothing and waving American flags to represent her. She smiled and pointed them out, feeling even more good about herself. She even spotted Vienna in the crowd and waved, blowing kisses.
“LOVE YOU!” Vienna shouted from her seat. The college student noticed some ARMY trying to get her attention. “I don’t speak Korean but it looks like you want to take a selfie, so sure.” she gestured for them to give her their phones.
Jennie and Jimin migrated to the basketball court to support Suga who was currently warming up for the basketball finals match. Jimin and Jennie were standing where the staff seats were while she took photos on her phone.
“Suga got this in the bag. He should be fine.” Jennie said.
“Yes!” Jimin praised when they watched Suga make a shot in the basket while practicing.
When the game started, Jennie and Jimin became cheerleaders for the Daegu rapper.
“MIN YOONGI~!” Jimin shouted. “Lee Changmin! Jung Jinwoon! Lee Hyun-hyungnim!”
“WOO HOOOOOOOOO! YEAH!” Jennie shouted. “YOU GOT THIS FAM! I SEE YOU BOO, I SEE YOU!”
Suga had put his head down, while his teammates started laughing at their enthusiasm for their groupmate.
Due to their heated cheers, Jimin and Jennie sat on the sidelines to watch the game. Every time Suga’s team made a shot, Jimin and Jennie would jump up from their seats and cheer.
“That’s my Suga!” Jennie shouted proudly, happily applauding. “I am a proud little sister!”
“Yoon! Gi! Yoon! Gi! Yoon! Gi! Yoon! Gi!” Jennie and Jimin chanted as the game progressed.
Yoongi’s team ended up winning and earning gold medals.
Before Jennie knew it, it was time for Volleyball as she stood backstage with the stylists, preparing her outfit. She wore a long sleeve shirt and black shorts with knee pads. When Jennie put on the shorts, she noticed they were a bit too small.
“Ah...I told you to get a bigger size. My ass is bigger than you Korean women. And I have wider hips.” she exclaimed while the stylists giggled.
“We came prepared, don’t worry.” 
They brought in a backup pair which fit much better. She checked out her outfit in the mirror and turned around to look at her behind. 
“All right, it’s covering up everything. Ah, I’m freaking out.” Jennie rambled.
When she was all dressed up, she walked to the gym, where the volleyball court was already put up. She gathered around the members as they helped prepare her.
“Ready, sweetie?” Jin smiled.
“A little nervous.”
“You’ll be just fine.” Yoongi patted her on the back
Taehyung gave her water while Jimin began massaging her shoulders to help her relax.
“I have the tape.” Namjoon brought up and grabbed one of her hands while Hobi grabbed her other hand to start taping her fingers.
“Remember, be careful, spike some balls and win.” Jungkook reminded her. “Use your golden defense skills.”
“I’ll be sure to do that and more.” she nodded.
Hobi cupped her face, pressing his lips to her forehead. He smiled softly, “You got this, Jennie! Show those ladies why Bangtan is great!”
She nodded and started to grin, high fiving each member before walking up to the court to meet with her teammates.
Representing Team Who’s The Boss, Jennie teamed with Baek A-Yeon, Hyelim & Yubin from Wonder Girls and Min and Suzy from Miss A. Their opponents were from Team the Return of The King which consisted of Hyuna & Gayoon from 4Minute, Yeeun & Seunghee from CLC, and Hayoung and Naeyun from APink.
“Here we are! This is the first time we are having a volleyball event at ISAC. Miss Bangtan will be starting to serve, representing Team Who’s the Boss.” The commentators mentioned over the roaring cheers of the audience.
Jennie exhaled sharply, as her heart raced while having the ball in her hands. 
‘I can do this...’ she gave herself words of encouragement. 
Just before she could serve, she heard loud screaming.
“JENNNNNNNNNNIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE~! You Got this!! Goooooooo
Jennnnnnnniiiieeeeeeeee~!”
The screaming caught her by surprise and she turned around sharply to see Jimin, J-Hope, and Yoongi hollering for her. Rap Monster had facepalmed, shaking his head while Jin and Jungkook were giggling, clapping to themselves.
Her teammates began giggling at her enthusiastic group members and thought it was cute that they were cheering her on. 
Jennie had let out a loud laugh and blew some kisses at Bangtan before turning back to her opponents.
“GO JENNIE!” another scream caught her by surprise but this time it was actually from Hayoon who was standing on the sidelines with the rest of GFriend, cheering her on. 
She had shyly looked down after screaming so loudly but Jennie had appreciated her cheers.
‘Okay...let’s do this.’ she began bouncing the volleyball by slapping it with her palm as it hit the ground then back to her palm, numerous times. 
The loud sound began to intimidate her opponents as they tried to get ready.
Tumblr media
Raising the ball in the air, she jumped up high for a powerful spike. The ball ended up hitting the ground on the other side before the opposing team could hit it and Jennie earned a point for her team. Loud screams from ARMY were heard around the arena while some watched, stunned at the spike.
“YES! That is my child! I raised her! That is my beautiful little girl!” Jin yelled happily.
“WOOOOOOO! ATTA GIRL!” Namjoon shouted. 
A proud smile came across Jungkook’s lips as he nodded in approval, applauding her efforts. 'That's my Jennie,' he thought proudly.
“Whaaaaaaa, what a powerful strike from Jennie of BTS! Wow!” the commentators went on.
She was surprised as her teammates went to hug her. “I can’t believe I got that.” she started laughing while Yubin and Hyelim smiled sweetly, patting her on the back.
The game progressed with Bangtan watching closely as they saw the concentration in her eyes. They admired her efforts because she truly had worked hard. Jen soared with her defensive skills as she effortlessly blocked the ball, which caused some of her opponents to get annoyed that they couldn’t get a point.
“Ah, Jennie, stop blocking my spikes!” Hyuna whined.
“Not sorry.” Jennie replied with a grin.
“Are you seeing this!? Are you seeing this!?” Taehyung grabbed onto Jimin and started shaking him. “She keeps blocking the ball! They’re gonna win!”
“WOOOOO! Go, Jen!” Jackson, Bam Bam and Mark became some of her hypemen throughout the match.
Jen’s forearms began to sting from the constant hitting of the ball as the game went on. Her team was well in the lead, thanks to Yubin and Suzy soaring in setting the ball for their teammates to spike, Hyelim being great at passing the ball to her teammates and Baek A-Yeon specializing in spiking with Min. Jennie had made sure to jump up and throw her hands up to block the ball whenever she could with her teammates, which helped tremendously in the game.
"Miss Bangtan's defense is dangerous," the commentators pointed out at how effortless she made blocking for her team.
Once Hayoung served the ball, Hyelim managed to hit the ball, passing it to Suzy who managed to hit the ball over the net. Yeeun dove down, hitting the ball as she connected with the floor while Gayoon passed the ball to Naeyun. Naeyun spiked the ball and Min hit the ball back. Yubin and Baek A-Yeon watched it fly near them and Baek A-Yeon managed to set the ball. 
“All yours, Jennie!” she gestured as Miss Bangtan jumped up and spiked the ball across the court.
Once they saw that the ball hit the floor before their opponents could hit it, they happily yelled in excitement.
“YES!” Jen screamed and fist pumped over the loud cheers and screams from the crowd. 
Tumblr media
She started jumping up and down while her teammates threw themselves at her, and they all fell to the floor while hugging. When they got back on their feet, they celebrated all around the arena while Jen did aerial cartwheels around the arena in celebration.
Bangtan started laughing wholeheartedly that she still had the energy to jump and cartwheel around. They immediately ran down to the volleyball court to celebrate with her. J-Hope picked her up over his shoulders and ran around with Bangtan as they all cheered and celebrated. 
"Jennie! Jennie! Jennie!" The boys chanted.
The volleyball team received gold medals for their efforts. When the team was interviewed, Jennie thanked her teammates for working so hard to be victorious and praised them for their hard work. She had a blast with them and hopes volleyball continues to be an event in ISAC.
Meanwhile, Bam Bam had been watching her, smitten by her athleticism in the volleyball game. After some pep talk from Jackson, he finally decided to approach her, bringing a water and towel for her to wipe her sweaty face.
“Have you played volleyball, before?” he asked.
“I kid you not, this was my first actual game.”
“Wow, well you need to teach me some time because you were amazing out there.”
With the Maknae Line, Jimin was on alert when he noticed that Bam Bam was starting to flirt with her as she had covered her mouth while giggling and shyly averting her eyes. Once he nudged Taehyung and Jungkook to point out what was going on, Jungkook shot Bam Bam a sharp stare.
“All right, relax, he still has a dating ban so we should be okay,” Taehyung reassured.
“I hope so,” Jungkook grumbled.
Going backstage, Jen had Namjoon snap a photo of herself with her arms outstretched and a proud smile on her face. 
She tweets, ‘I came, I slayed, I conquered. Getting 1st place at ISAC feels so good. We winning! Yay us! #BlackGirlMagic #DidntTripThisTime #JEN’
For the final event, which was the final of Men's 400m relay, Jennie approached Jungkook from behind, placing a hand on his shoulder while smiling. “You ready?”
“I hope so. I really want to win.” he tilted his head to the side.
“You’ll do well. I’ll be waiting for you at the finish line, Golden Maknae,” she reassured him.
Those words motivated him to do well. Running and passing the finish line, to see her there, cheering him on. It brought a smile to his face.
Seventeen, B1A4, Teen Top, and BTS were the teams going up against each other. Jennie stood on the sidelines with GFriend and Yeeun.
“Let’s go Jimin!” Jennie shouted, clapping as her heart began to race. 
Once the idols started running, the arena started screaming. Jimin passed his stick to Taehyung as he dashed in his line tailing behind Sandeul from B1A4. 
“You got this Tae!” she began jumping up and down with GFriend and Yeeun.
Once Tae passed the stick to Hobi, he ran behind Jinyeong, before passing it to the last runner, which was Jungkook.
Soon as Jungkook zoomed past, everyone, he created a big gap as he aimed for the finish line. 
“Yes!” she happily yelled, continuing to watch him run. 
She started to migrate near the finish line, waiting for him to finish. ARMY began screaming as soon as Jungkook ran through the finish line. 
“The last runner from BTS is so amazing!” the commentators exclaimed while Rapmon and Jimin ran after him.
Jungkook kept running until he saw Jennie happily running towards him. He ran up to her and embraced her, rejoicing in his victory
“Ahhhh I’m so proud of you!” she wrapped her arms around his neck. 
They both felt a collision when Jimin, Rapmon, and Tae ran over, joining in the hug and they ended up tumbling onto the floor as the rest of the members joined in, laughing.
Yeeun ended up giggling with GFriend. “Ah, Jungkook and Jennie are so cute~!”
“I know! He looks so happy, too.” Eunha added with a smile.
“I haven’t told Jennie but I really ship her with Jungkook. Don’t you agree?” Hayoon asked.
“I know me too. I bet we’re not the only ones” SinB mentioned as they all agreed.
--------
A few days later, Jennie sat in her little studio at Big Hit with her camera videotaping her live for another V-Live. She sat in her chair, spinning around, while the views continued to multiply. She always had her V-Lives in English, enjoying speaking her primary language. But also tended to accommodate those who wanted to hear some Korean and Japanese. Some even asked for Chinese although she was still learning and needed work on it.
Tumblr media
After a few moments and checked out the screen and waved. “What up, what up??” she smiled.
‘BABE!’
‘Hiiiiii’
‘ahhh I love you so much!’
‘Love u JW!’
“Welcome to the Smartie Factory!” she presented. “My own little studio, haha. Just like Suga, J-Hope, and Rapmon. This is where I create my covers and work on my music. Let me give you a tour.” she took the camera and showed off the computer. “So, this is where I have all my music on. I recently transferred my stuff from my laptop. I had this studio for a few months now and finally have the chance to show it off. Remember all the stuffed animals I received on White Day? Ahahaha, they’re all happily here to cheer me on while I work.” 
After showing everything, she set it back down on the desk while she sat and faced the camera.
“Sadly, there are no Smarties, right now, I ate them all. I’m so upset, I just had some yesterday. Sometimes I think the guys steal some of my smarties because there is just no way in the world I don’t have any left.”
‘How was ISAC?’
‘I saw videos of you at ISAC! You did great!’
‘You killed it at ISAC!’
“Yes, ISAC was sooooo fun! Mad fun! I had a great time, a better time than last year. At least I didn’t fall! I was so annoyed when they kept bringing up me falling last year. Just let it go, you know?” She continued to read the comments.
“Hahaha you say that some guys were looking at me? Who? Let me know the tea.” she spoke eagerly with amusement. “And yeah, I did meet more people! I finally got to meet some Seventeen members. They’re mad cool. The8 is very kind and cute. He accidentally called me handsome when he meant to say beautiful. I am trying to learn more Chinese so I can speak with him more and also to speak with more of our Chinese ARMY. I want to be able to communicate with you all without much of a language barrier. So please bear with me. I’ll be learning. You know, I get a kick out of my friends getting so confused when I speak English. And even Korean. It’s funny to see their reaction. I feel that way too when I’m not familiar with a language.”
‘The black community is so proud of you’
‘I love your self-determination’
“Well, I’m very proud that I’m representing the black community up here.” she beamed while reading the comments.
‘Did you see a lot of ARMY at ISAC?’
“Yeah, I did see a lot of ARMY at ISAC. I even saw some of you wear some USA merch. That was really cool of you to do that. I ran into some lucky ARMY after the show. Please don’t be so nervous to talk to me. I’m just a normal person just like you, just more known for her talents, that’s all. Like say hey, I’ll say hey back. While on Tumblr, I read that our supporters would probably die or pass out or wouldn’t be able to talk in front of their favorite idols. But I don’t want to miss an opportunity to meet my passionate supporters, so please don’t feel that way. I’m human, let’s have a brief conversation and chill.”
“Oh! For a while now, I was making some of my own music,” she added. “But lately I kind of got a little discouraged. I won’t scrap it, I’ll just leave it on my computer until I find the motivation to work on it again. My goals are to create music for myself one day and release it for you.”
‘Release it!’
‘Please release it!’
‘Don’t tease us like that’
‘Do I need to fly to Korea? Release it!’
She smiled softly. “One day I’ll release it. I want to rerecord everything though. My vocals are improving, so that’s good. I had this notebook and...” she trailed off
She remembered her young self, back in Amity, constantly writing a couple of songs in her notebook. Back when the other members were getting called out to work on their solo songs. Excited and eager she was, patiently waiting for her time to share a song that she wrote. She kept the notebook to herself and didn’t tell anyone.
When Hailey found out, she wanted to use Jen’s written songs for Amity’s next album but Jen refused because she couldn’t just give songs so personal away like that. It caused more of a rift in her relationship with the group.
But before Jen knew it, she had lost the notebook right before she left the group and hadn’t seen it ever since. But then recently, with Amity’s new album out to help promote their world tour, Jen noticed that some of those songs on their album were the songs she had written in her notebook. Crazy enough, some songs were tweaked for a more sexual tone and sadly, defeated the purpose of the written songs that she spent weeks working on because she wasn’t a professional songwriter and just wrote what came to mind.
Jennie shouldn’t have been surprised but soon as she heard those familiar words, she teared up and cried in her room. It discouraged and hurt her that they would do something that. They weren’t going to let her or Angelina live it down that they wanted to leave, huh? She couldn’t do anything about it but move on. She had spoken with Namjoon about it and vented to him. Yoongi was in the studio with them and she remembered the Daegu rapper suggesting to create a diss track. But her rap skills weren’t up to par just yet to go that way. And Amity, well, they just weren’t worth it and Namjoon agreed with her reasons.
Throughout this year, Amity would constantly poke shots at her and Angelina on social media because they’ve been winning awards like the Grammys. But Jennie and Angelina wanted quality music, not quantity.
Jen wanted to sing songs that were meaningful to her. She was glad she was here because Big Hit gave her more musical freedom, unlike SongStress Entertainment. It would be a while before she could begin writing songs again. The wound had not healed yet.
She sighed and shook the negative thoughts out of her head. “I had written a couple of songs but lost the notebook to it,” she responded. “Someone that I thought I could trust, now is singing those songs that I had written. But it’s okay. I hope to make better songs. So, bear with me.”
“Why do you stay in BTS when there’s some so-called “ARMY” that won’t support you but will support the other members?” she read a question. “Well, because I love what I do. And I refuse to let someone have that power over me to stop doing what I want to do in my life. It’s crazy, people always are there to see you fall but don’t say much when they see you do your own thing and succeed. But all these antis and haters, they can take a seat and watch me thrive. I ain’t going nowhere. Oh, so I was on Tumblr, right?” 
‘Uh oh...’
‘Oh nooooo’
‘What did you see!?’
‘Hide your fanfics!’
“You guys come up with some interesting fan blog names of me. Let’s see...um...what were they? Oh yeah, Jenniesyummythighs was one. MunchkinsBooty was another.” she laughed. “Uh, IAmJenniesBoobies was another I came across. HireJennieForNike is one I really like, they really should hire me. I’d be a great model for them. I’m so enthusiastic about their product.”
‘Lmaoooooo omg’
‘Hahahahahah’
‘LOL can you blame us?’
“So, ARMY, I have a question to ask you. I’m curious. So whenever I’m on Tumblr, I usually like to check the BTS tag, right? So, um...what is this about a Sub Jennie, I’m seeing lately? Should I be concerned?” she deadpanned, looking serious with a genuine voice.
‘DEAD’
‘OH SHIZ’
‘DELETE YOUR BLOGS’
‘SHE CALLED US OUT’
‘UM’
“Uh huh. That’s what I thought. But who said I was a sub?” she asked curiously but ended up laughing at how she asserted her question, shaking her head. “I didn’t mean it like that. I meant literally, who said I was a sub? Where did that even start? Ugh, I think I accidentally just gave you story ideas. Let me be quiet. My statement came out dirtier than I intended.”
‘OMG which one are you?’
“Ah, I should keep it PG. I’m not about that life.”
‘Do you read them?’
“No, I don’t read your fanfics. That seems like taboo territory for me. I don’t want to feel some type of way around anyone you write me with but you do you guys. I like the mood boards that you make and also the fan art. I came across this Hunger Games AU mood board and I thought it was so good. I love the Hunger Games and I enjoy mood boards so make more of those, please.”
“I saved some of my favorites on my phone. I like some of these users on Instagram and follow them. Here." she pointed out some famous K-Pop fanart pages on her phone. “I will try my best to see all your stuff. If you make the hashtag #JWFanart then I’ll always check that tag on Instagram and Tumblr. I’ll like the stuff on Instagram when I can.”
“Oh, and by the way, all of your MLTs of me that I randomly came across, seem to be all wrong," she pointed out. "I remember seeing this one statement that said who is most likely to kiss first. Y’all put me allllll the way at the bottom. I highly recommend that you reconsider that. I'm not afraid to kiss somebody,"
“Another thing, why y’all think I’ll be a crazy ass girlfriend? Like jeez, I’m mad chill, I promise you. Is it because of the I Need U music video with the cheating scene? I was just acting! And who is most likely to cheat? Why did y’all put me at the TOP of the list!? Bruh! Who do you think I am?” she called them out. "Like, no! Absolutely not, you wildin’, don’t play like that!”
She laughed again. “All right, I’m done teasing. Y'all enjoy whatever your imagination takes you,"
With Jungkook, he was in the Big Hit building, in a dance studio with Jimin and Taehyung, watching her V-Live on his phone.
“What kind of girlfriend do I think I’ll be?” he watched her read a comment in Korean. “I feel like I’ll be so cheesy, to be honest. I’d like to do some nice things for my future significant other, to show how much I appreciate them. I’m not sure what yet. I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. Gosh but the thought of dating someone, I’m like, you really want to put up with me? Me? Of all people?”
“Absolutely.” the Golden Maknae spoke, answering her statement.
“I’m so weird, are you sure?”
“That makes two of us.” he continued.
“I’ll admit, sometimes I have my fears. I try not to overthink it but some days I’m like, man I hope the person I date won’t get bored of me after a while.”
“I’d never get bored of you.” He guaranteed.
“I’m pretty sure a lot of people get those thoughts and overthink things. I feel like I'm a terrible kisser and need to get better at it. I apologize in advance to my future lover.”
“It’s okay,” he murmured under his breath with a smile.
"I guess when I do date, I'll get better at kissing. So I hope my future significant other doesn't mind me kissing them a lot,"
"I'd love that," Jungkook added
Jimin and Taehyung saw Jungkook immersed on his phone with a smitten smile on his face and they decided to see what he was up to. 
“I bet he’s watching Jennie’s V-Live.” Taehyung teased.
“I know. Look at him, trying so hard not to smile.” Jimin giggled.
Jungkook glanced up and narrowed his eyes. “Shut up!” He tried to get away from them as they tried to watch what was going on.
Back to Jennie, a comment popped up and she read, “When you start dating, you’ll improve your kissing skills. You can kiss your boyfriend whenever you want.”
Jen let out a soft laugh and nodded. “Yeah, you’re right. And for those out there, don’t change yourself for anyone. It’s their loss if they can’t appreciate you for you. There will be someone out there for you, so don’t sweat it if you don’t think you won't find someone special. Be patient. It’ll be worth it.”
‘Can you please sing for us?’
“You want me to sing? It’ll cost you. How much?” She teased and took out her phone. “I’ll put my music on shuffle and see what pops up.”
The first song to come on is a rock song. “I’m a little bit of a rock and metalhead. But let’s choose another song. You know one day I would like to create some type of alternative or rock song while playing my guitar. That would be so cool. Or maybe collab with a rock band, one day. K-Rock or not, it’ll be fun. Maybe, we’ll see what the future holds. I want to be more active with my guitar. I enjoy that style of music because the guitar just sounds so good with it.”
She pressed shuffle again and Love by Keyshia Cole came on. “Ah, this song! How come all these throwbacks are popping up on my phone, huh Spotify? Really?”
She pressed shuffle again and Pon de Replay played. “Ahhhh 2005 Rihanna. This was my song!”
She started moving her shoulders, bumping to the beat. “I love Rihanna’s evolution as an artist. I hope I can have the same type of evolution as her, music and appearance wise. I want to be an amazing artist just like her! The way she thrives in so many genres of music! Nicki Minaj too! So versatile! I hope to be just like them in music. Rock Star is one of my favorites from Rihanna! I want to be a rockstar! Black women in rock are amazing! It'll be a dream to work with them! I don't care what it is. Modeling, music, anything! I adore them!"
She pressed shuffle again as Ridin by Chamillionaire popped on. “Ooh! This song too!”
She started bouncing up and down on her seat to the beat while ARMY started laughing at her enthusiasm. “They see me rollin’, they hatin’, Patrollin’ and tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. My music’s so loud, I’m swangin’. They hopin’ that they gonna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty. Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty.”
She pressed shuffle again and Right Thurr by Chingy came on. “Oh~ another throwback! I haven’t heard this in a minute! Okay, Okay, let me get back on track and stop fooling around. Let’s find a song to sing for you.”
Unconditional by Kehlani came on.
“Ah, okay, I’ll sing this. I highly recommend her music.” she looked at the camera and laughed shyly “You guys are gonna make me nervous.” she pressed her hands against her cheeks
Back to the Golden Maknae, he couldn’t contain his smile as he watched her sing sweetly to Kehlani’s song.
“Whipped!” Taehyung teased.
“Shut up!” he yelled and smacked him on the arm as he continued to try to watch her V-Live.
With Miss Bangtan, she sang, “Sometimes I come home and I’m sweaty from the day. And my hair’s all in a messy bun cause I had to get it out my face.” She pointed to her messy bun. “And I rather lace my sneakers up cause high heels ain’t my thing.” she showed off her Nike sneakers on her feet as she wiggled her eyebrows goofily which caused some ARMY to type in various comments indicating that they were laughing and amused at her movements.
“And I don’t see a flaw in that, I never want to change. So if you love~ me like you say~! You’ll be a man, grab my hand, take me as I am~!” she got out of her seat to dance and sing around.
I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love unconditional
I wanna l-l-l-l-l-l-l-love unconditional
‘IM CRYINGGGG’
‘Protect this child’
‘Why is she so adorable!?’
‘Ahhhhh I love this girl!’
After the song, she got back to her seat to check out the comments. “Protect me? Ahahaha! I guess I have some issues, don’t I? All jokes aside, I’ve been so excited to show you how much my singing has improved that I’ve been working on a number of covers to share with you on SoundCloud, probably near the holiday season as an early Christmas gift. Okay, let’s check out what’s next on the shuffle.” she pressed the next button.
Ain’t It Fun by Paramore came on and she started jamming. “Ooh, yes!” she jumped out of her seat to grab one of the biggest teddy bears from her White Day stuffed animal stash, and began to dance with it.
‘And I thought Jungkook was the weirdest, AHAHAH’
‘This is the true personality of Miss Bangtan. LOL'
Back with Jungkook, he started laughing hysterically. This was too adorable.
Instagram Models by Charlie Puth came on next when she changed the song, sitting back down.
“Oh! This song! Make sure y’all stay away from these Instagram models! Men and women! They will get you! Stay away from these people, man! Don’t give them clout, brah! Do not! Give them! CLOUT!” she yelled and spun around in her chair.
As the Maknae Line was leaving the dance studio, they began to walk near Jen’s studio. 
“Hey, Jungkookie, you should see Jennie and join her,” Jimin suggested with a mischievous glint.
“Ah, I shouldn’t.” The Golden Maknae shook his head, taking out his earbuds.
“I think you should.” He opened up the door and quickly shoved him in.
“Hyung!” he whispered in a hiss while the door closed silently.
Jennie, unaware that Jungkook was in her studio, continued Lil Wayne’s rap. 
“Uh, she just wanted to be popular. Uh, she just want ten thousand followers.” she pulled up her Instagram page, showing it on the screen. Setting her phone down, she shook her head and gestured with her hands, “Lord, she posted, she posted, she posted. They like it, they like it, repost it. She party promoting, she hosting. She posing, legs open, provoking. It got my head smoking. I tried to act like I don’t notice. Emotions, emotions, emotions, Lord!” 
She dramatically fell out of her seat as ARMY typed in LOL and laughing emojis while the chorus came back on
‘I am cryinggggg XD’
‘hahahahahahhaha’
‘Omg, she must be on a sugar high from those smarties.’
‘I'm high key happy that she is so comfortable with us like this. She used to be so reserved. She’s so goofy now ahaha’
Meanwhile, Jungkook silently started laughing and wondered when she’d notice him as ARMY noticed him in the background.
She got back to her seat to continue the next verse and she pretended like she was about to cry as she dramatically lip synced, “I had to leave that ho alone and get my mind right. I had to go talk to my friends, I had to find Christ.” She placed a hand over her heart and the other high up in the air, reaching the sky.
Once she saw a comment about Jungkook being in the room, she quickly turned around and widened her eyes. 
“How long have you been there!?” she exclaimed while he started cackling. She quickly paused the song while he grabbed a seat to sit next to her.
“Long enough.” he teased.
“Wow. Well, Jungkook make sure you stay away from these Instagram Models, mkay?’
“Duly noted.”
“I’m serious. They nothing but trouble.”
“I’m aware from what I just saw.”
“Hahah.” she turned to the camera. “ARMY! Look who stopped by, the Golden Maknae after he just watched me act goofy. Say hello to ARMY.”
“Hello!” he waved. “ARMY, Jennie is weird, isn’t she?”
Tumblr media
“And you’re not?” she turned her head to meet his gaze as a big smile came across his face.
‘OMG, the way he’s looking at her! I ship it!’
‘I love their friendship so much. They are friendship goals.’
‘Aw, the way Jungkook is smiling, I want him to smile like that more often.’
“ARMY! Thank you so much for getting Shawn Mendes’ attention. I’m still stunned he noticed the cover. ARMY, you are truly one of a kind. Thank you so much for this.”
‘You are welcome!’
‘You deserve it!’
‘We ship you and Shawn!’
“You ship us? Hahaha. I do have a little crush on him. Hopefully, I’ll meet him one day and attend one of his concerts.”
“You like him?” Jungkook brought up.
“Not as much as you like IU.” she teased, causing him to smile shyly. “So when are you going to talk to IU?”
“When you are going to talk to Ailee?” he countered
“L-let’s not get into that. I’m not prepared.” She responded, making him chuckle.
‘Who would you date out of all the members of BTS’
“Who would I date? Shawn Mendes,” she answered with a grin
‘Who would you want to collaborate with?’
“Shawn Mendes.”
‘Who would you like to meet?’
“Shawn Mendes.” She answered again, causing Jungkook to poke the inside of his cheek as she continued to talk about Shawn.
‘Hahahah Jungkook looks a little jealous!’ he noticed a fan comment.
Did he really make it that obvious? 
He had hoped Jen didn’t see the comment. 
He needed to work on having a poker face and keep his jealousy in check.
“I’m gonna go. I’ll see you back at the dorm. I’m going to get something to eat first, did you want anything?” Jungkook got up from his seat.
“Lamb Skewers.”
“I’m glad our minds think alike.” he happily accepted her request and said goodbye to ARMY, exiting the room.
“As the year will be ending soon, I’m hoping that soon we can have some fan meets in America like there are in Korea and Japan. I want to be able to connect one on one with our American supporters just like we do here. So I’ll see what I can do.” She mentioned.
“I have also been writing out some more goals. I want to work more on my breath control when singing. I'm getting better at it. I’m currently working on trying to inhale a good amount of oxygen that flows out my lungs smoothly while I sing my verses to songs with ease. I've getting some vocal lessons to help with that, so I hope you look forward to my improvements as the years go by. I am striving hard to improve and reinvent myself. Especially with my live singing.”
Before she could speak again, she heard a loud yell from outside the room and watched Jimin and Taehyung run into her studio, locking the door.
She sat there, bewildered, and questioned them, “What the heck? Can’t you see I’m trying to talk to ARMY?”
She was cut off by their giggling. “We pranked Suga and Rapmon. We made it seem like we put water on their computers.” Jimin mentioned.
“Oh no, you didn’t.” she looked at them in horror.
‘Oh shitttt, Jen’s face says it all’
‘RIP Jimin and Taehyung’
“Can we please hide in here?” Taehyung asked,
“I hurt my finger, can you get me a band-aid?” Jimin asked.
“I wish I could band-aid your mouth.” Jen retorted, earning giggles from the 95 Liners. She turned to the computer when she heard hard knocking on her door. “U-um, ARMY, our time will be cut short. I need to fix the mess that these two goofballs created. Thanks for hanging out with me today. Love you, bye!” she turned off the V-Live and got up from her seat.
She smacked Jimin and Tae upside their heads, causing them to yelp.
"That's for bringing the drama to my studio!" she scolded.
“Smartie!” Yoongi yelled on the other side of the door.
“Yeah!?” She called out loudly.
“I know they’re in there! Open the door! Why is it locked!?”
“Because I was having a VLive with ARMY!”
“Bullshit, where are those two!? I'm trying to work on this damn album, and they spilled water on my fucking computer!“
Jennie rubbed her temples while Jimin and Tae panicked, and scrambled around to find hiding spots.
Yoongi was not in a pleasant mood.
“SMARTIE!” he banged on the door, causing her to flinch.
“Look what you got me into!” She whispered harshly to them.
Somehow, Namjoon managed to work on opening up her door, which caused Jennie to push the door shut with Taehyung and Jimin. Loud screams and curses were heard as the rappers tried to push the door open after they unlocked it.
“Not the door! NOT THE DOOR! My door!” she yelled when Namjoon accidentally dented her door, barging in to go after the poor 95 Liners. “Take this outside! Take this outside, right now! I just cleaned this studio up!”

Sato Yuuri was born on September 28, 2002 in Takamatsu, Japan to criminals Sato Michiya and Hiroka. She was fostered and later adopted by an American couple, Daisy and Logan Hughes and is one of six children. As she came from a family full of (albeit unknown) musicians, she showed interest in singing as early as five. She remained connected to her roots as she listened to J-pop and later K-pop as well.
After a video of her singing while playing Just Dance 2016 went viral, a Delphi Entertainment staff member saw and scouted her. She came to South Korea to audition properly, as well as auditioning at other companies in person and auditioning online at companies in Japan. She got accepted into multiple companies, and was going to choose Avex but was too nervous to go through with it. She ultimately chose Delphi Entertainment in the end.
In 2017, she was announced as a trainee in Delphi Entertainment’s pre-debut girl group project; GIRLISH, with nine other girls. She was well received by the public and was the third member to be revealed for GIRL TALK. She debuted in 2018 in the girl group GIRL TALK as their maknae, lead vocalist, and lead dancer.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ I WANNA BE, HIGH ALL THE TIME ── wang shanyuan
Wang Shanyuan, more commonly known by his stage name, Yuan, is the leader of starcrush. Born in Hangzhou, China, it was always somewhat of a struggle for Yuan growing up. The only reason they were living in Hangzhou, was because he had other family members there, who had offered to support his family, when in need. Yuan was only fluent in Mandarin and didn’t have much knowledge about any other languages in the world which was a struggle when he moved to Korea later on in his life.
Despite his home life, Yuan was extremely popular at school, due to his likeable personality and supposedly ‘good looks’ that were said to be charming to many students. This was the opposite for his sister, Wang Liling, who was constantly bullied for being the worst ‘Wang Sibling’. Yuan chose to ignore his sister’s wishes for help, not wanting to bruise his reputation until she ended up in hospital because of a damaging incident. This was what soured the relationship between the two and caused them to grow distant, Yuan still attempting to fix the relationship from time to time with no success or progress.
March of 2017, was the last time Yuan saw China, as a few days later, he moved to Korea for undisclosed reasons. During his stay, he ended up making a few friends, without knowing much of the language. He quickly started to learn the language, in hopes of being a translator in the future when he stumbled across being an Idol as a career. Yuan had never thought about it before, but he had always excelled in music during high school and he also happened to be a good dancer. So when he heard Melody Media were holding auditions close to his home, he took the opportunity and landed a spot in the pre-debut group IN-SYNC.
IN-SYNC soon disbanded as a pre-debut group in perpetration for the confirmed group’s initial debut. After many altercations and changes to the lineup, Yuan debuted with STARCRUSH on April 12th, 2019 with the viral song ‘In My Dreams’. He is currently the group’s leader, sub vocalist & lead dancer.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ HOPE YOU DON’T REGRET IT ── kang haesoo
Kang Haesoo, more famously known by her pseudonym, Star, was born in Changwon, South-Korea to two wealthy parents. Haesoo was an only child and was constantly given money and attention by her parents since they had no other children. This would make Haesoo seem spoiled and ungrateful to the other students that attended her middle & high school so they gave her the nickname of 'Kang Princess' to both make fun of, as well as annoy her. Haesoo attempted to ignore the constant teasing by her classmates, but it was extremely hard for her, especially when she knew what they were saying was true, she just didn't want to accept it.
When she was younger, Haesoo had already been heavily involved in child acting, her parents thrusting her into the spotlight at an early age with commercials and a few roles in tv shows and movies. This continued until she quit acting in Early 2015. She often spent time alone, being wealthy was one thing, but having zero friends was another problem. Nobody wanted to be friends with a 'spoiled rich girl' and because of this, Haesoo stayed home most days, never going out like normal teens her age would.
Spending all her time locked away in her room, studying, writing rap lyrics, or doing absolutely nothing, is what caused Haesoo to become increasingly more interested in the idol industry, and when she did, she was very eager to be apart of it. Previously, she had heard and watched many idols perform, but she didn't think about what it would be like if she was up on stage, always on camera. But when she finally did, it seemed to become a huge dream for her and she would not stop mentioning it to her parents. However, Haesoo struggled to find an entertainment that accepted her. Some offered to let her in without an audition, due to her parents wealth, but she insisted on passing with her own talents to do things without always involving money.
The last company she auditioned for, was Melody Media, and it was her last hope. If the audition didn't go well, Haesoo decided that she would just have to quit her dream and continue focusing on studying every other week. Fortunately, she passed her audition and started her life as a trainee in the middle of 2016. Shortly after, she was added to the lineup for the pre-debut group, IN-SYNC, and started training with the rest of the group until she debuted in STARCRUSH as the group's main rapper and sub vocalist.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ WISH I DIDN’T DOUBT IT ── cho michae
Born in 2000, Cho Michae was born in Perth, Australia along with three other siblings. From a young age, it was clear Michae was going to have a career in music. She had always dreamed of playing an instrument and was exceptional at both singing and dancing. This is what led Michae to start playing the violin as well as the guitar throughout Elementary and Middle school. Nearing the start of High School, she still stuck to the violin and dropped guitar once she realized that she was struggling to keep up with both, and she had just recently joined the school’s choir. Michae then transferred to the Australian Performing Arts Grammar School, in Glebe, Australia, for better education opportunities for her to pursue a musical career.
During her High School days, she was part of a popular band named ‘DAYDRUM’ where she was the lead guitarist and occasionally featured in the vocalist role, but since she had stopped playing the guitar a while ago, it was difficult for her to learn how to play again. A few years after the band was created, Michae realized that it just wasn’t for her and officially quit, still pursuing other interests and instruments in her spare time. This was around the time where she was emailed by Melody Media after they watched her final performance together with the band when it went viral after its upload on youtube, with it being plastered on every single social media platform. This email is what pushed Michae to attempt to enter their online global auditions, in the hopes of being accepted.
In Winter of 2015, She was accepted into Melody Media and immediately placed in the trainee group IN-SYNC. Without her family’s consent, she moved to Korea, ready to start training whenever she could. Despite her place in IN-SYNC she was later sent to participate in the M-NET produced survival show, PRODUCE 101. Michae placed 14th overall in the show, which didn’t really matter to her as she was promised a debut either way. The company expressed their thoughts on Michae being a rapper, which she shot down very quickly as she had no experience in rapping, but Melody Media insisted and she then took classes to aid her in grey areas up until debut. She then debuted in STARCRUSH as the group’s main rapper & main dancer.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ IT DOESN’T MATTER IF WE’RE NEVER RICH OR FAMOUS ── kim theo
Kim Theo’s parents had disappeared and left him at a young age, so, he had always lived with his Aunt and Uncle, along with his cousins in Leicester, England. Ever since he was five years old, Theo had always been interested in being an idol as soon as he saw 2PM & SHINee on the big screen. But, his legal guardians were not very supportive or appreciative of the idea. Theo often felt isolated inside the home and it felt as if he didn’t belong there, or as if he was intruding on them constantly. He was taken care of and cared for properly, but his Aunt & Uncle refused to let him audition for any entertainment companies, explaining that it was a waste of time and that he could be doing bigger and better things in life than just one unattainable job he had wanted since childhood.
Something else that had stopped him from pursuing this dream, was an injury he sustained when he started to play football professionally for his school. Theo had severely fractured his ankle, meaning he wasn’t able to play for a year and it halted his plans to audition for entertainment companies that same year. During his recovery period, his parents finally decided to reach out to him, which angered Theo immensely and he refused to speak to them, despite their pleads for him to come back and live with them. At this point, Theo had given up on both football and being an idol. It seemed as if neither careers were going to be attainable after his injury and it felt as if everything in his life was going completely wrong, recovery was just too much for him.
Despite all this, his parents had still not given up on convincing him to live with them and decided to take it upon themselves to check him out of the hospital and tried to convince him to go home with them, which failed and a restraining order was immediately placed against the couple. Exactly a year after Theo’s incident, he had fully recovered but had clearly given up on being an idol when he was scouted in England by Melody Media after they had decided to look for more global idols for their company image. They scouted Theo mainly based on his looks, not asking for anything else during his audition and he was accepted through to the trainee section of the company.
In 2017, Theo was added to the lineup for IN-SYNC and soon after, he debuted in STARCRUSH as the group’s lead dancer & main vocalist.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ I DIDN’T KNOW THEY WOULDN’T MIX WITH YOUR EMOTIONS ── hwang daehyun
Hwang Daehyun, better known as Dae, had been born into a very strict and professional household with a family full of successful people who were positive Daehyun would be successful too, and he was. Daehyun had plans to become a lawyer and was constantly throwing himself into studying and education so that he wouldn’t disappoint his family. This gave Daehyun a lot of stress and he lost a lot of free time just hauled upstairs and locked away, in order for him to impress everyone he knew. Whenever his friends or other family members asked him to hang out with them, he would always have to decline to make sure he didn’t fall behind on his studies.
He kept this up until he suddenly became sick due to the lack of nutrients he wasn’t getting, and he wasn’t eating any other supplements to help this out. Instead of being worried about his condition, his parents brushed it off and told him to keep working. They claimed the reason why he fell ill was because he ‘wasn’t working hard enough’ which sent Daehyun over the edge and he decided that he had to quit, even if it meant disappointing his parents. But surprisingly, they were supportive of him, realizing that they were a little too harsh on him and that they couldn’t control everything he did in his life.
Daehyun’s friends would often joke around about being an idol and that’s where his sudden interest sparked. At first, he played along joking about the idea but then it began to intrigue him, so he then started to research about it, which further catapulted him into a spiral of questions about the industry. After a long time of thinking, Daehyun finally realized that he was set on becoming an idol and introduced this idea to his parents. This took a lot of convincing and pleading since his parents were extremely surprised that he brought this up, and weren’t extremely sure if this was something he should go for. But, they finally caved in and allowed him to start auditioning for different companies. Daehyun had been constantly practicing and this meant that a range of labels were reaching out to him and accepting his auditions. Daehyun ended up choosing Melody Media as it was one of the closest to him and he didn’t want to have to separate from his family.
He was one of the last trainees to join the IN-SYNC lineup, being added last minute in 2018 just before the disbandment of the pre-debut group meaning he only spent a few months practicing with them but still managed to stay apart of the lineup, avoiding being cut off. In spring of 2019, Daehyun debuted in STARCRUSH as the lead rapper and lead vocalist.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ I JUST HAD TO REACH MY GOALS ── yoo bonnie
Life in California was everything but peaceful for Yoo Bonnie. Her family were also extremely rich, but often neglected and chose to ignore Bonnie and the rest of her siblings, meaning that they had to focus on raising themselves & each other. Time together was barely enough for the family, and their Mother began to realize how unhealthy it was and took off with the four siblings. Things continued to be the same and nothing changed drastically, they were all still being ignored by the only parent they had left, so Bonnie got used to the same routine everyday. Bonnie and her siblings left their Mother to live with their Aunt in South Korea for the next 3 years.
This was where Bonnie gained interest in music, and a musical career. The idol life was all everyone talked about in Korea, especially in school and Bonnie wondered what it would be like too, after watching a few performances of SNSD most days when she came home from school. But she couldn’t speak much Korean at the time, and it was a struggle for her to communicate with her friends, teachers and other students, let alone sing in a whole other language. Bonnie was not exceptional at singing either and thought did a very long time, that her lack of vocal skills would be her downfall.
At that time, Bonnie’s older sister, Melanie, was taking dance classes and she had decided that she desperately wanted to join her as she had always found dancing fun and an interesting hobby to pick up since it didn’t seem very difficult. Bonnie was completely wrong, she often came home with bruises from continuously falling over and even sometimes, sprained limbs when she tried too hard to match her sister’s pace. A year since she had started dancing, was when Bonnie could finally keep up with the rest of the class, and began to go further than most each week. A few months later, and she had already been performing at festivals, and occasionally at her school.
It wasn’t until late 2017 when both her and her older sister, Annie, were scouted at one of Bonnie’s festivals where she was currently performing in along with Melanie, their aunt cheering them both on. One of Melody Media’s scouting crew persuaded her to audition for their company and after a long conversation, she finally gave in. Bonnie was accepted into Melody Media and joined the lineup for STARCRUSH in early 2019 as the last pre-debut member of IN-SYNC. She then debuted with STARCRUSH as the group’s main dancer & lead rapper.

𖤐 ˖   ࣪ I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU, THOUGH ── narumi miura
Miura Narumi, also known as Darling, was always a positive & vibrant person, even since birth. Narumi would always help out her family members and even her neighbours whenever they asked, this however, did not put her in a good spot. She was often picked on in school for being ‘naive’ and too ‘trusting’ when it came to who weren’t and who were her friends. This made Narumi often feel isolated from others and as if she didn’t have anyone else to talk to or simply just be around, since no one wanted to be near someone like her.
Narumi had always loved growing up in Japan, she loved her hometown and loved the fact that it was so easy to see her extended family members, but when it came to the time for her ti start thinking about her career, Narumi knew she didn’t want to stay stuck in Japan for the rest of her life. She didn’t have many options though, there wasn’t anything she excelled in or liked enough for her to make a career out of it, expect music. However, Narumi’s parents desperately wanted her to become a Doctor or a Teacher of some sort, which was exactly the opposite of what she wanted to be but they just would not let the idea go and continued to pressure her into it.
That was when she decided that she just couldn’t be near them anymore, and decided to go to South-Korea, alone. This decision was extremely hard for Narumi, because it meant living away from her family and going into a foreign country she knew nothing about and had no idea how to speak the language for a long period of time. Luckily for her, the rest of her family had soon followed behind her, not wanting to leave their daughter alone at such a young age. Whilst out with a few friends she had made in her short time in Korea, Narumi was scouted by Melody Media after they had heard a short few minutes of her singing.
Narumi was the last of the group to join the lineup and was a late addition, only being introduced after the disbandment of the pre-debut group IN-SYNC. She debuted in April, 2019 as the group’s lead vocalist & lead dancer.
