jennie kim, pansexual, demi-woman, she/they. ♡ now entering the apartment building is ong yubin, a twenty seven year old who is currently video game developer. netizens have said they seem stubborn but others have said they’re skilled ! gossip aside, we’re sure they’re bound to be a fan favorite !

background.

yubin was born in seoul. spending the first few years of her life in the country before her family moved to the us. more specifically moving to los angeles. yubin started school in the us and spent the rest of her childhood to college years in la. studying video game development at calarts.

only moving back to seoul after graduating from college. when she moved back they took on a job at a video game production company in seoul. working from day one to grow within the company. now a team leader within the development team of her company.

yubin joined the show to find what they hope to be a long lasting good relationship for her.

personality.

yubin loves to get her way with things, it's very hard to get her to give up on her ideals. her stubbornness can often leave them fighting with the people that she is close with.

they are very skilled, and even when they don't necessarily know how something works she'll set her mind on it until she has it mastered.

style wise yubin likes to wear daring fashion, especially when it comes to mixing both masc and feminine styles together.

wanted connections.

friends: would love a friendship from when she lived in la! maybe someone that she went through like discovering themselves in both sexual and gender identity.

exes: i would love an ex that she's still very close friends with! could be someone that she dated in la or when she came back to seoul. also exes that were much shorter period of time of dating.

haneul   had   a   lost   a   large   number   of   her   followers   after   the   scandal   had   been   leaked,   however   she   was   sure   that   she'd   have   plenty   of   people   that   would   be   tuning   into   her   life   on   the   show.   the   hope   that   the   cameras   being   on   them   would   help   her   reach   out   to   find   new   fans   to   support   her   career   in   the   future.   the   former   trainee   had   been   making   her   around   the   garden   before   she   stopped   to   take   in   the   view   from   the   rooftop.   "i   think   it's   kind   of   interesting,   and   also   probably   comforting   to   others   to   see   the   representation."   haneul   replied.   "unfortunately   i   wouldn't   be   hopeful,   those   moments   can   easily   be   something   to   get   the   audience   laughing."

who : honey + anyone. @seoulmatestart where : rooftop garden party status : 0/3 [ open ]

honey stood near the edge of the rooftop, gazing out at the city lights below as the party buzzed behind her. she’d been making her rounds, chatting with a few of the other residents, but now she needed a little breather—just for a minute. it was weird, being filmed like this. part of her loved the attention, the idea that people might actually care about her life, but there was always that nagging awkwardness that came with the cameras. "i can't believe there are people out there actually interested in watching us in our day to day lives..." she mumbled to herself, glancing around, hoping to catch the attention of someone close to her to break the awkwardness of standing alone. "i wonder if they’ll edit out the part where i inevitably trip over my own feet later."

"aren't   we   all   here   partially   for   that   reason?"   as   much   as   madee   herself   didn't   want   to   admit   that,   she   was   there   to   potentially   meet   someone   that   she   could   date   in   seoul.   "i'm   sure   that   we   all   have   our   reasons   for   being   here,   but   is   it   also   not   the   point   for   us   to   mingle   and   potentially   date?   would   that   not   require   coming   here   with   the   purpose   of   wanting   someone   to   be   attracted   to   you   in   some   sort   of   way?"   the   artist   can't   blame   the   other   for   being   defensive   to   her   previous   comment.   "i   don't   think   that   a   lot   of   us   truly   know   what   to   expect   of   this,   however   try   to   keep   a   positive   outlook."

˚₊‧꒰ა . — ˗ˏˋ ✮ ˎˊ˗ — ˖ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ —— sunhee felt her chest tighten, her jaw clenching slightly as she stared at the other woman. the words stung more than she wanted to admit, even if they were truthful. she forced a tight smile, though it didn’t quite reach her eyes. “i’m not being whiny,” she shot back, her voice colder than she intended. “and i didn’t say anything about wanting someone to be attracted to me, i’m fine.” her fingers curled into the fabric of her dress, and she quickly looked away, not wanting to show how much the comment had gotten under her skin. “honestly,” she added, trying to keep her voice steady, “i’m not asking for attention. i just don’t really know what to expect, and i don’t like that.”

getting   out   onto   the   dancefloor   with   the   music   was   exactly   what   was   needed   for   the   former   trainee.   feeling   the   music   and   moving   her   body   would   help   calm   the   nerves   she   felt   in   the   moment.   since   coming   out   she   hadn't   been   surrounded   by   this   many   people   that   were   similar   to   her   and   it   was   maybe   a   little   overwhelming.   "what   is   your   career?"   haneul   asked   the   other.   body   swaying   already   to   the   music   playing   from   the   speaker.   "shall   we   dance   then?"

standing at the sidelines wasn't how gaeun wanted this night to go. she hadn't signed up for this show to not make some kind of impact on herself while she healed from her injury, she needed to get herself out there. looking at the other, she sees in her physique which spoke of how she had honed her body in dancing, just as gaeun had in figure skating for a lot of her life. " while i did not train in dance, my career does revolve around being light on my feet and graceful. i'm sure that will translate to dance. "

drinking   was   not   something   that   haneul   really   partook   in.   during   the   year   that   she   had   taken   off   from   her   idol   career   she   had   spent   staying   in   despite   it   being   the   time   that   she   had   just   become   old   enough   to   drink.   however   with   the   nerves   of   meeting   everyone   in   the   apartment   through   this   party   she   was   letting   the   buzz   of   the   alcohol   take   the   edge   off.   standing   next   to   the   other   as   she   nursed   her   drink   when   the   other   spoke   up.   "i'm   honestly   sure   that   they   probably   would."   she   agreed   with   the   other.   "i'm   not   a   bad   dancer,   spent   too   many   years   honing   that   skill.   but   i   also   won't   judge   you."

truthfully gaeun wasn't much of a drinker, it wasn't something that she had time to indulge in with her often busy schedule. but with things changing since her injury and signing up for seoulmates, she didn't see why she couldn't have a few. at this point gaeun was probably two deep, some kind of fruity drinks that were very tasty and not at all what a lightweight like her was used to. she felt good and this was supposed to be a party right? " there's music but no one is dancing. i think the producers would love it if they got some of us dancing during the party, right ? " but she couldn't dance alone, no it would took at least two to dance. " i won't laugh if you're a bad dancer, i promise. "

jang   wonyoung,   lesbian   demisexual,   cisfemale,   she/her. ♡ now   entering   the   apartment   building   is son   haneul, a twenty year   old   who   is   currently an  ex-idol   trainee. netizens   have   said   they   seem self-centered but   others   have   said   they’re  dedicated !   gossip   aside,   we’re   sure   they’re   bound   to   be   a   fan   favorite   ! 

background.

born and raised in seoul. hanuel wanted to become an idol from as little as eleven years old. watching the groups around at the time she was growing up she used to learn the dances as a little preteen. picked up as a trainee when she was fourteen, she spent three years training before she was selected by her company to compete on a survival show. however she was eliminated in the final episode.

after she failed to debut, she was caught in a scandal regarding her sexuality. the company dropped her almost immediately. she spent a year just relaxing at home with her family after the survival show.

when she heard about seoulmates she decided to take the opportunity. wanting to become successful still as an idol while being publicly out as a lesbian. the show being geared towards lesbians would likely attract the people that she needed to support her in her career after the show.

personality.

earning the reputation of being self centered came from haneul's time on the survival show. being a leader was never something that she had in her idea of her future as an idol so she had kept to herself a little. especially when it came to helping the other trainee's in learning the songs and choreographies. though haneul will keep herself first if it benefits her.

with a goal set for herself haneul will not stop going for that goal. that is the exact reason that she signed up for the show. just a means to help grow her career as an idol.

connections.

friends: could be from school, from also being a trainee, and of course new friends made on the show.

crush: someone that she immediately was like i want to talk to them.

scandal partner: it'd be cool if the other party in her scandal also was a part of the show..

parties   were   never   really   madee's   thing,   and   this   one   still   wasn't   something   she   could   say   that   she   was   enjoying   thoroughly.   while   she   wouldn't   consider   herself   to   be   the   most   sociable   she   could   still   hold   a   decent   conversation   while   she   was   required   to.   "just   because   they   are   getting   closer   this   quickly   doesn't   mean   that   you   won't   find   someone."   the   artist   replied.   shrugging   her   shoulders   at   the   comment.   "i'm   not   telling   you   this   to   offend   you,   but   no   one   is   going   to   be   attracted   to   someone   being   whiny   about   not   getting   attention."

˚₊‧꒰ა . — ˗ˏˋ ✮ ˎˊ˗ — ˖ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ — — it's her first party since... you know. discovering herself, so to speak. she isn't exactly sure how she feels. several years ago she was the center of attention at parties - now she felt out of place. uncertain. "they make me feel like a loser," she whines, motioning to the duo in the distance who are giggling and getting a little too close to one another. she takes a sip of what should probably be her last drink for the night. "they're cute." and i want that. it's probably nothing serious, sure - but still... "i used to be popular at parties. this is a totally different ballgame though, i think..."

being   in   front   of   the   cameras   is   not   something   that   madee   is   remotely   comfortable   with.   somehow   convinced   to   go   on   a   show   that   airs   a   large   portion   of   her   life   was   leaving   her   thinking   of   her   choices.   the   first   gathering   already   overwhelming   the   introverted   female.   slipping   into   a   quiet,   tucked   away   corner   to   collect   herself   for   a   moment.   turning   to   look   at   the   other   as   she   entered   the   same   space.   "can   you   blame   me?"   madee   chuckles   softly.   "yeah   you   can   join   me."

Location: Rooftop Garden for Event #1

Soo is an extroverted person at heart, and loves a good party, but even she can get overwhelmed. Especially with all the lights and cameras everywhere. She managed to slip away from the lenses, and find a little corner somewhere, however it appeared Soo's sanctuary of peace had been taken by another already.

"Damn, you also trying to hide for a bit? Mind if I join you?"

faye   peraya,   lesbian,   female,   she/her.   ♡ now   entering   the   apartment   building   is madee   suttikul,   a twenty-nine year   old   who   is   currently   an artist.   netizens   have   said   they   seem nonchalant but   others   have   said   they’re creative !   gossip   aside,   we’re   sure   they’re   bound   to   be   a   fan   favorite   !

background.

madee was born in ao nang, thailand. both of her parents were well off and she was raised with the idea of being held to an impossible standard with them. it wasn't until she came out to her parents that things really blew up for her. as soon as she was able to she applied for art schools that could get her away from her parents.

at 19 she was accepted into snu, earning herself a degree in art history. after school she continued to stay in korea while selling the art that she makes to earn a living. she rents a small studio that she uses to do all of her painting.

since coming to korea she has not been in contact with her family. though a part of her misses the beach in ao nang, she does not wish to return to her parents after how everything had been for her.

going into the show wasn't necessarily something that she jumped at the chance for. however her friend convinced her to join because at the bare minimum it would put her name out there as an artist. a bonus she could find love at the same time.

personality.

madee was always a creative person, from finger painting as a child to high school where she spent all of her time in front of a canvas. constantly itching to put her mind onto canvas.

a front of being nonchalant started as a teenager. easier to act like you don't care that your parents are homophobic than be reactive and constantly fight with them. while that started with her family it continued into her everyday life even after she left home.

madee has a fairly masculine style, typically does not wear make up.

connections.

friends: especially the one that convinced her to join the show. also new friends made once arriving in the apartment.

flirtationship: someone that she is potentially interested in, bonus if they are the one that flirts with her first.

enemies: because i like juicy shit i would love to have someone that just rubs madee the wrong way, and let's be honest the show would love to capitalize on that.
