i tried to make my fictional kpop company’s head quarters on the sims 4 and this is what happened.

i got this idea from @ephemera-sm​ who posted a text post about how it would be interesting to see a floor plan of oc dorms, companies, etc. I thought that was an amazing idea so i decided to make my company on the sims! 

some notes before we start: 

the sims only allows 4 floors to be built. obviously a real company has multiple floors and multiple different levels. some of the layouts that i created i see as being a ‘repeat’ floor (so like... multiple floors may have the exact same layout)

i am really really really ungifted when it comes to sims4 building. please don’t judge me too hard. i don’t have cc furniture either. i was working on limited skill and resources. i’m insecure about posting this lmao please be nice.

if you even read through this whole thing.... i’m open to answering any questions about HBH or the building or staff or whatever! questions help me world build and I really need to work on world building.

Alright. Let’s start with the ground floor. 

Ah, the main lobby. Where visitors and artists alike enter the wondrous building and are greeted by the equally-wondrous, piece of ancient history secretary, Mrs Son Youngja. Right next to the entrance (that you can only get through if you either have an ID or buzz in), are three large display cases. Inside these cases are all the awards that HBH artists have won over the years. Yes, this is a flex on any newcomers that have never been to HBH’s headquarters. No, it’s not subtle in the slightest.

If you’re a trainee, employee, or artist, you have to show Youngja your HBH Entertainment ID before heading to the elevators. Anyone who doesn’t have their ID has to wait in the lobby, but they will be asked to leave by security if they loiter for more than ten minutes. You do not want to mess with security. 

In order to access the rest of the building, you will need your HBH Entertainment ID to open the elevators. Depending on your position at the company, your ID may only get you into specific locations. For example, a corporate intern will only have access to the corporate floor. 

I always pictured HBH to have a wall full of ivy or plants or maybe even running water behind the front desk. I feel like Hak Bonghwa would want that just to like ‘bring calmness’ or something. The sims 4 ivy wall looks fugly but please just envision a cool looking plant wall.

In my Sims 4 world, I called it ‘The Big Practice Room’. At HBH, there are actually at least 2 of these types of floors, stacked one on top of the other. 

So there are two floors that look like this! The first one is on floor 1, and they call it Practice Room A. The second one is on floor 2, and they call it Practice Room B. 

These larger practice rooms are mostly reserved for debuted idols to practice their choreography. Large groups like Triptych need big practice rooms like this so all their members can work together. 

Trainees rarely use these practice rooms unless they are given permission from their instructors to book them. They are sort of a rite of passage to be able to use the larger practice rooms after you debut. 

I showed a picture of some random posters next to the ‘sound system’ in the second picture because in my head these practice rooms just have a ton of vice/promise/triptych memes printed out and pasted onto the walls near the back of the rooms.

Part of being an HBH artist is coming in at five in the morning to see a new meme of yourself right next to the aux cord. Good morning, Seoul. 

As you can see, there are two locker rooms up here. Most of the idols just dump their stuff against the wall in the practice room, but sometimes people actually use the lockers that HBH paid for.

There’s also three showers and if I could find space for it there would have also been bathroom stalls but.... hehe i made everything too small and was too lazy to rescale. There should be three toilet stalls in each locker room, just use your imagination. 

In the Sims 4, Trainee Town is one floor. At HBH, it’s more like two. So imagine this floor, but another identical floor on top of it. 

They call it ‘Trainee Town’ because these two floors are only used by trainees. 

Well, not all the time, but you will rarely see a debuted idol in a practice room up here or walking around unless they are hosting a class or dropping by to give tips.

Trainee Town has four practice rooms, all which are significantly smaller than the larger practice rooms that we saw earlier. This is because when they are training, they are broken down into smaller groups and taught by instructors. They also are broken down into smaller performance groups when it comes to busking and showcases, so they never really need a large place to practice.

Actually, the kids will practice anywhere. The space between the two elevators has been used as a practice room multiple times. 

Right when they get off the elevators, there are bulletin boards that not only have the schedules for their training and showcases, but also sometimes they’ll leave messages to each other on them. It’s cute. 

You might have noticed that the locker rooms don’t have showers. That’s because I ran out of space again. There is supposed to be showers and toilets. I just don’t know how to be an architect. 

There’s at least three floors of corporate, but only one has Hak Bonghwa’s office. (The floor above his has an office very similar to his. That office belongs to Heo Seongja.)

They all generally have this same layout. Open seating, no cubical, only a half-wall to separate desks.

HBH’s unofficial-official color is a greyish blue so I tried to keep the color theme going in this specific floor because this is like... where the Business Happens. 

I couldn’t make it but there is a specific floor in HBH that is dedicated to just conference rooms. All the top floors of HBH are for business offices and stuff, but the conference floor is the second-to-top floor. The only floor above that one is the food court, which overlooks the city.

I totally forgot to add the food court, but imagine like... a college dining hall. It’s like that but with healthy food and tables with benches. 

Anyways! Hak Bonghwa’s office is in a glass box so he can see all his workers. He doesn’t do this to be controlling or whatever, he wants to make it feel like they’re all in this together. 

His desk always has photos of his family on it. 

He has a small conference section of his office with a cat vase. In my head, there was no cat vase. Now that I saw this one from the Sims, there is now canonically a cat vase in Hak Bonghwa’s office. 

The tea is: a good chunk of HBH workers hate this office layout because there’s no privacy and you can always see what other people are up to and it’s distracting. 

The last level I created were The Dungeons. 

The Dungeons got it’s nickname for two reasons. One, the other half of the basement (which isn’t shown because I got too tired to finish it) used to be the old trainee rooms when Vice were training. 

The second is because of the obsurd amount of time you spend down here when you’re working on a new album.

Most of HBH artists are self-producing so the members will spend a good chunk of their time down in one of the studios to record their comebacks. 

There are three recording studios. The Green Studio, the Red Studio, and the Blue Studio. They all get their names from the carpets that are laid on the floor. 

The Blue Room is used the most frequently for production lessons for trainees.  

Across the hall, you may have noticed two other rooms. One of these rooms “belongs” to Cyth from Vice. The other belongs to Rushi and Haeun, two long-time trainees. 

Cyth gets a room because he produces not only for Vice but he also has had a helping hand in almost every HBH artist comeback since Triptych debuted. He’s earned his own work space to say the least.

Rushi and Haeun have one for similar reasons. They have both been trainees for nearly six years now. A part of their training was that they got to produce, compose, and write for other HBH idols. They have helped Promise create their whole “Dancer” album as well as a few early Triptych tracks. Even though they are just trainees, they are very valuable members to the HBH gang. 

To explain the “random space” part! 

I’ve thought it through and I’ve decided that I will probably be putting several ‘empty’ rooms down there for a variety of things like rap practice, vocal practice, lyric writing practice, etc. Just more practice space for idols and trainees. 

I have nothing else to add. If you have any questions or comments, I’d love to hear them. I may or may not make the dorms?? idk. We’ll see. i’d love to see other people’s floor plans! hop on this! let’s make it a trend! Thank you for reading this very long post! Stay healthy please.

[ARTICLE] - KOREABOO - 12/30/2019

At their annual end of the year press conference, HBH Entertainment’s founder and main producer, Hak Bonghwa, teased information about the company’s plans for 2020 and the new decade as well as debunking rumors on their current artists and groups.

A rumor spread out shortly after Vice’s return from military service that Vice would be disbanding in 2020. Hak Bonghwa was quick to dismiss these rumors when they were brought up stating the following: 

“HBH has not and will not discuss disbanding the idol group Vice. The only time disbandment will be discussed is if members of Vice wish to discontinue their contracts with us. The members of Vice have never expressed such feelings and will continue making music and meeting fans in 2020.”

As far as what 2020 has in store for Vice, HBH confirms that they will have multiple comebacks this year as well as hopefully tackling a new era of horror: 80s Horror Film.

When asked about the company’s plans for girl group Promise, HBH shares that the Promise girls are planning on having several comebacks in 2020, starting with their third studio album in early 2020 and then their full English album in Spring 2020. It was also teased that Promise will be touring this year as well. 

The future of Triptych was a hot topic at the convention, given the popularity of the co-ed super group. Several questions about the third installment, better known as “Generation 3″, were posed. HBH responded with a controversial statement that surprised fans: 

“Generation 3 will debut in 2020. However, Gen 3 will be the last of Triptych installments for several years. When Generation 3 debuts, they will mark the end of Phase 1 for Triptych... Phase 1 will end when current members decide that they no longer wish to be apart of Triptych. For now, everyone is satisfied and Triptych is going strong. Phase 1 will be complete, and we will dedicate our time and money into supporting members of Phase 1.” 

Last but not least, the hot topic of HBHT20 was discussed. HBH Trainees is a very popular and successful trainee program for aspiring idols. The trainee program gives trainees exposure to fans and performance, building up their experience before making debut. Usually, HBH Trainees doesn’t promote until the summer, but this year, HBH decided to change things up:

“Since it is the start of a new decade, we wanted our trainees, who we consider the future of our company and legacy, to start promoting and preparing as soon as possible. We have a lot of star power in our trainees, and we want them to show the world what they are made of right as the new decade hits.” 

Are you excited for HBH’s plans in 2020?

THE 2019 HBH FAMILY HOLIDAY PARTY IN A NUTSHELL

featuring: @vicehbh, @promiseofficial, @triptychofficial, and @hbhtrainees!

Ah yes, HBH’s infamous yearly Christmas party, where artists and trainees under HBH Entertainment gather together to celebrate as one big, messy, dysfunctional family.

In case you didn’t know, last year was really laid back. It was basically one big sleepover. But Hak Bonghwa doesn’t like to do the same thing twice in a row, so he asked everyone to show up in red or white formal outfits because this year’s theme was.... candy canes! 

Yup, he decided to make everything red and white to replicate that of a candy cane. In all honesty, he turned the practice rooms into something right out of Candy Land. 

In practice room 1 was the standard ‘dance floor’ with a dj in the corner and a bunch of green, red, and white flashing lights. 

In practice room 2 they had a bunch of food as well as a candy grab bag buffet. They had a chocolate fountain with white chocolate and various red foods for dipping. They also had a cookie decorating station. All the food was either red or white.

In practice room 3 was a more relaxed setting with couches pulled in from the lobby, a loop of Christmas movies projecting onto the wall, and a minibar. 

The first people to show up was actually Triptych, which never happens. Usually the super group are the last to show up. 

They completely took over the hot chocolate bar set up in one of the practice rooms, knowing that once the trainees arrived, all the food would be consumed. 

Shortly after Triptych arrived, Vice came in with their families and significant others.

Zim, Ame, Eli, and Teo spent a lot of time with Juliet Yoo, Cyth’s only daughter (and lowkey the princess of HBH).

While Juliet was taken care of by his trusted labelmates, Cyth decided to hit up that free minibar with Ji and Kane. Needless to say, the three of them got pretty tipsy before the trainees even showed up. 

When the trainees got there, the party had officially started. The young trainees took over the dance floor and helped themselves to one too many vodka crans.

Not to mention, someone jammed the fondue fountain with a marshmallow... conveniently right after the trainees showed up. 

Everyone seemed pissed that the trainees were fucking everything up, but Triptych was like ‘well, at least it’s not us who are in trouble this time around’. 

A dance battle broke out between Cal, Asa, Yen, One, Sun, and Kit versus half of the HBHT20 kids to TLC’s Sleigh Ride. 

It ended when Promise’s Soyeon jumped in the middle to dance, which was how Promise made their grand entrance.

The whole night was filled with fun, catching up, and vodka spritzers. 

About half way through Frosty the Snowman, Juliet was passed out in Eli’s arms, which everyone thought was really cute.

Ji was so drunk that he was shoving peppermint sticks up his nose for no reason, but all the trainees took videos of him shooting the candy out of his nose with one good huff.

Promise might have showed up last, but they partied hard until the end of the night, holding their heels in their hands the whole time. 

Nari and Zim took over the kareoke machine and ended up headbanging to Feliz Navidad together.

By the end of the party, very few people were sober. Even Hak Bonghwa was tipsy. 

They all went home singing Christmas carols into the night.

HBH TRAINEES: A HISTORY

At HBH, trainees strive to be apart of their yearly predebut project groups. Around Summer time, a collection of trainees is announced in a non-solidified predebut line up. Usually, these lineups are divided by gender, but there have been some exceptions. If you make it into the line up of these groups, you have a very good chance of debuting.

The reason why HBH makes so many project groups is to test the overall compatibility of the groups as well test how well the trainees can handle a schedule similar to a debuted idol’s. It’s important to the company that the members get along, work together well, and have good chemistry. Even though this system is set up to sort out the line up prior to debut, it is notorious of HBH to add members to already debuted groups.

Here is a history on every predebut project group formed, just to keep you informed.

2011 - HBH TRAINEES

In 2011 when there were only a handful of trainees to choose from, the first predebut project was formed. Simply named ‘HBH Trainees’, they were made up of Hwang Minho, Lim Geonwu, Yoo Sungho, Choi Woodam, Shin Joongji, and Lee Kangdae, better known today as 6 out of the 7 Vice members. These boys mainly busked and performed at local high schools to gain fans and attention from the general public. They were not as publicized as future project groups, but they started the concept of testing out a line-up and then making adjustments to it before debut.

2014 - HBHNG/HBHNB/HBHNT

The most popularized and publicized group of trainees was the internet phenomenon HBHNT, short for HBH Next Thing. This group of trainees were 18 members strong and split up into two groups: HBH Next Girls and HBH Next Boys. They not only busked and held public events, but they had their own weekly web show that kept fans updated in their training. They were also the first group of trainees under HBH to have a showcase. Members were allowed to host vLives, communicate through fans directly through social media, and generally be very interactive with their audience.

Even though this era is often dubbed the ‘golden’ predebut era, this project group also had the most drama. Before the group was set to debut, many members dropped out rapidly for unknown reasons. As a result, the company was forced to work with a co-ed project group, which was later debuted under the name Triptych. (More about this era can be found here. A more well personal perspective of this era can be found here)

2015 - A-GIRLS

In 2015, HBH decided that they wanted to debut their first ever all-girl group. They collected their top female trainees and created the project group A-Girls. The members included Seo Youngae (Ex-Trainee), Kwon Jimin (Promise’s Lucy), Jung Nari (Promise’s Nana), Lee Bora (HBH Trainee), Shin Soyeon (Promise’s Soyeon), Kim Eunmi (Ex-Trainee), Son Hwayoung (Promise’s Hwayoung), and Park Haneul (Promise’s Rina).

A-Girls was nowhere near as popular as HBHNT, but they did have a large following due to popular members being apart of HBHNT previously. However, A-Girls was less interactive with fans. They only did a handful of busking events and would upload only one cover biweekly. They had about two episodes of their own web show before it was canceled due to members being removed and the fear of having scandals being leaked through the series. Member and leader Youngae dropped out of HBH all together because of a family death. She had a small legal dispute with the company in order to terminate her contract. Then ex-trainee Kim Eunmi was asked to leave the company due to bullying and harassment. Lee Bora was dropped from the line up due to underperformance. A-Girls continued as a 5 piece before Hwayoung dropped out months before debut for personal reasons. The remaining girls debuted as Promise, having Hwayoung reunite with them in 2019.

2016 - HBH: ECHO and ANSWER

Trying to recreate the sibling groups that were supposed to form from HBHNT, HBH announced the ECHO and ANSWER project. ECHO was the female counterpart and ANSWER was the male. ECHO was comprised of Min Soojin (Triptych’s Jin), Ji Haeyoon (Triptych’s Hyo), Love (Triptych’s Ame), Li Rushi (HBH Trainee), Park Haeun (HBH Trainee), Kang Sunhee (Triptych’s Sun), Hwang Chaewon (Triptych’s One), and Hashimoto Kotori (HBH Trainee).

ANSWER was comprised of Jung Jaehwa (HBH Trainee), Im Songgye (HBH Trainee), Itsuki Saito (HBH Trainee), Seo Soonyoung (Triptych’s Sol), Na Hyunki (Triptych’s Fin), Ahn Myungdae (Triptych’s Day), and Ryu Yeetai (HBH Trainee).

A lot of complicated things went down during this era, but it was the first time HBH tried to introduce elimination based off fan’s say. This plan backfired tremendously on HBH, as several members self-eliminated after finding out about the elimination process. A lawsuit was nearly involved between trainees and the company, but everything was settled internally before it could go public. After a long summer, the remaining trainees finally debuted as Triptych’s second generation. (More about this era can be found here)

HBHT17-19

HBH Trainees come back and announce old and new faces. Just like before, the trainees are given access to social media accounts and are allowed to post YouTube videos and vLives.

From the year 2017 onward, the company decides that taking a new approach to how they display their trainees will work out better than the previous summers. They also decided that they will give the trainees more free range when it comes to collaborating. The mission statement that HBH put out described that from 2017 and onward, HBH Trainees (or HBHT for short) will be generally focusing on debuting more members of Triptych, however, it’s a possibility that HBHT members could debut under a new project.

Due to Triptych’s main concept focusing around collaboration, subgroups under HBHT were encouraged by the company. For the first time, HBH Trainees are allowed to create their own subgroups and display them to the public.

In 2019, there still is HBH19G (HBH ‘19 Girls) and HBH19B (HBH ‘19 Boys), but there are also subgroups. (More information on HBHT19 subgroups can be found here.)

The only groups formed by HBH themselves are HBHT19, HBH19G, and HBH19B. Not every trainee is grouped by gender. To be apart of HBH19G/B, you need to be one of the top trainees. If the company doesn’t think you’re ready to be promoted in that way, you will be grouped under HBHT19, which is the general umbrella term for all HBH Trainees as of summer 2019.

HBH TRAINEE, LEE KYUNGCHUL, CONFIRMED TO BE PARTICIPATING IN PRODUCEX101

Notice from HBH Trainee’s Official Fancafe:

After many rumors flying around about HBH’s participation in the newest season of hit survival show Produce 101, HBH would like to confirm that one of our trainees, Lee Kyungchul, will be participating in the next season.

Lee Kyungchul (b. 2000) has been labeled by fans of Triptych and HBH alike as the ‘face of the next generation’. After his debut on HBH Trainee’s website in 2018, the young trainee has gained a lot of attention for his excellent rap skills and dancing ability. His charming and candid personality has stolen the hearts of fans. 

In order for Kyungchul to make the best stage possible for fans, he believes that he needs to train in a more competitive setting where his skills will be put to the test against other talented trainees. He hopes fans can support him and his activities! 

Much Love,

Kyungie & HBH Trainees Team

FAN REACTIONS:

[hbh-entertainment]

INFO. FOR OUR TRAINEES.

Here are some things that the company wants our trainees to be aware of.

CLASSES There are specific lessons that we ask our trainees to participate in at our company. We think that it’s important for our trainees to know how to do the basics. Each trainee must take 2 dance lessons, either one vocal or one rap lesson and three creative courses. 

We encourage all our trainees to strive for higher-level lessons. Those placed in advanced lessons will be considered for debut.

At HBH we offer a variety of classes and training for our trainees. Here are the current classes we have available:

DANCE

Beginners Ballet Intermediate Ballet Advanced Ballet

Beginners Contemporary Intermediate Contemporary Advanced Contemporary

Beginners Hip Hop Intermediate Hip Hop Advanced Hip Hop

Beginners Jazz Intermediate Jazz

Beginners Lyrical Intermediate Lyrical Advanced Lyrical

Beginners Tap Intermediate Tap

RAP: Beginners Rap Intermediate Rap Advanced Rap

VOCAL: Beginners Vocal Intermediate Vocal Advanced Vocal

CREATIVE COURSES:

Lyrical Writing 1 Lyrical Writing 2

Production 1 Production 2 Production 3

Composition 1 Composition 2 Composition 3

MONTHLY EVALUATIONS: At the end of every month we hold monthly evaluations to track the progress of our trainees. These evaluations give the company a good idea of when an artist will be ready for debut. We look for gradual improvement and raised skill level. Unfortunately, if we don’t think a trainee is making any progress and is not ready for debut, then we will have to ask them to leave the company.

DORMING Some of our trainees or artists live far away from our main building in Seoul, whether they live in Korea or are foreigners. To prevent any transportation troubles, we offer dorming for all of our trainees if they want it. As of recent, the dorms themselves are slightly outdated, but they are always clean and safe for living. It is up to those living in the dorms to notify the company if there are any issues with the dorms (infestation, plumbing issues, etc.). They are also responsible for keeping the dorms clean. Debuted artists must live together until they are no longer rookies. If they wish to move out after that period is up, they can. If you terminate your contract with the company, you are not allowed to live in the dorms.

DATING FOR TRAINEES We understand that being around each other causes some feelings to arise, but we also encourage our trainees to stay out of romantic relationships. We do not have a definite dating ban for our trainees, but if romantic relationships get in the way of their progress, we do suggest breaking off the relationship for the time being. However, as a company we will not force apart couples if they do form, as that goes against our ethical beliefs. If a trainee or artist is in an unsafe relationship that they cannot get out of for safety reasons, please notify the company.

[hbh-entertainment]

OUR POLICIES

EDUCATION If a trainee or artist is still at school level and wishes to complete or continue their studies, they are welcome to do so. They are expected to balance their studies and practices, but they will not be asked to drop out by the company. The company encourages underaged trainees to stay in school and are open to more flexible schedule changes if that is mandatory.

DATING Rookie idols are encouraged to not date until they are no longer rookies. We hold up this policy purely for the safety of our artists. We do not want our artists being distracted from their work and performing poorly during a crucial time in their career. We also do not want damaging drama to occur so early in their careers. Dating inside the company is not recommended, but we understand that you cannot help who you are attracted to. If dating happens within the company, artists must inform the company as soon as they can.

DIETING As a company, we do not promote unhealthy lifestyles. We want our trainees and artists to be as healthy as possible. However, if an artist wishes to diet, we have a nutritionist that we work with to help them slim down in a healthy way. Artists will never be asked to go on unhealthy or harmful diets.

MENTAL HEALTH We understand that being an idol or trainee is very stressful and can lead to poor mental health. We want the best for our artists and we treat them like family. Our company has many resources for our trainees or artists to utilize if they so need them. The company will pay or assist in paying for any psychological treatment that the artist may need. We have an in-company therapist who has open office hours during the week. Visits with this therapist are highly recommended.

PAYMENT Once our artists debut and start making a profit, they get paid. We will never take money from our artists, as they have earned it. HBH does not scam their artists of any money. Trainees do not make money unless they have made some sort of profit through pre-debut concerts or busking. Trainees are allowed to have a part-time job out of training if they can balance practice and a job.

CELL PHONES AND PERSONAL ELECTRONICS Trainees and artists are allowed to have cell phones and other personal electronics, however, we do not want these electronics to be out in our practice rooms. Practice should be a time for artists and trainees to perfect their skills and for that, they need their undivided attention.

PERSONAL SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS Trainees and artists can have personal social media accounts. The company must be aware of these accounts and they must not post anything about future projects that the company is working on. HBH trainees and artists are reminded to practice internet safety and to report any suspicious interactions to the company.

The 2018 HBH Family Holiday Party in a Nutshell

HBH throws a little holiday party every year for their artists/trainees to just have a little end of the year fun and bond together as a company.

Except for this year, Hak Bonghwa didn’t want this party to be like the last one. He wanted it to be more fun and less formal.

So he told all his artists to arrive in their pajamas.

Rina went all out and wore a light-up sweater with fuzzy pajama bottoms and reindeer slippers.

She almost was as best dressed as Triplex, who all showed up in reindeer onesies with jingle bells on them.

Everyone else wore normal Christmas/winter themed pajamas.

A lot of people wore elf hats, Santa hats, or reindeer headbands

It was really cute.

The company went all out this year and used three practice rooms to host their party.

One room had food, drinks, and music playing. They also had a kareoke machine and photobooth stall set up.

The next room had a bunch of beanbags and blankets and was playing a continuous loop of Christmas movies.

The last room was the most chaotic. It was an indoor snowball fight game.

So of course, shit got a little crazy.

After Tromme put their coats away, the first thing they did was race to the snowball room, followed closely by Trivium and S.O.T

The trainees that were previously in there got caught in the middle of their free for all snowball fight.

Basically, mayhem broke loose, and it just got worse after Promise joined. Them girlies are competitive.

If you listen closely, you can hear Van screaming as he covers his head to protect himself from the snowballs that Nana was mercilessly hurling at people.

Meanwhile, One, Sun and Kit were playing karaoke and failing miserably. It was getting to the point where people were considering pulling the plug on the machine just to get Kit to stop screaming the lyrics of Last Christmas.

Sol, Day and Fin, who are pretty awkward when it comes to social events, spent most of their time with Trois, who was at the hot chocolate station.

Ame overflowed her cup with marshmallows and almost got hot chocolate on her pajamas.

The six of them then went to the movie room to watch the last couple scenes of The Grinch.

They were later joined by Triplex, whose throats were raw from screaming and laughing so hard.

Then Promise came in a couple hours later with some food, totally out of breath.

Then the first generation of Triptych joined in. 

Basically, Triptych and Promise just formed one big cuddle puddle and some trainees that they knew joined in.

They were all tired and sweaty, but they didn’t care.

Basically, everyone fell asleep on top of one another. 

When Hak Bonghwa came in to see where everyone went to, he nearly melted at the sight and snapped at least 20 pictures from different angles

Then he turned the movie off so they could nap in peace.

When they woke up, it was the next morning and they were all pretty sore from sleeping on beanbags, but Hak Bonghwa had ordered breakfast food for all of them and gave them their gift bags.

It was a very memorable Christmas for everybody.

Triptych Gen 1 at Award Shows

For the red carpet they always take a handful of good pictures

… And then a bunch of meme pictures.

Think of btob on the red carpet. Like THAT level of chaotic

They are so well dressed like they didn’t come to play

Once their inside they barely sit with each other and never sit in their own seats.

They’re just social they want friends!!!

Wait wheres S.O.T? Where did they go? 

They lose S.O.T at literally every event they go to somehow

Trivium stopping every rookie group ever just to give them compliments and pointers? Most likely.

Tromme kinda keeps to themselves but once Eli sees BTS its over. He’s sprinting towards them to say hello (he thinks they’ll forget about him if he doesn’t keep reintroducing himself to them)

ALWAYS bop to every performance and they have the best reactions.

Are amazing sports and clap for everyone who wins or performs

They usually win a good amount of awards they give awkward speeches, but you can tell they’re very thankful.

intro.

HBH Entertainment was founded in 2010 under the famous producer and ex-idol Hak Bonghwa. After being unsatisfied with how he and other young idols were treated, he decided to create a company that could be a safe haven for musicians and entertainers alike. His main focus is to create a comfortable environment for his artists to grow and develop and feel free to express themselves. With an emphasis on creativity, he highly encourages his artists to take control of their own work and self-produce their own music.
