Description: Sangyun is not the most… normal… of boys in appearance. He is incredibly skinny, and though taller than most girls, he has such a feminine face that if he puts on a wig he actually gets mistaken for a girl. He is a remarkably flexible and strong person, built for dancing in spite of his deceptive skinniness. His hair is usually a little longer than normal, swept off to one side of his face and often dyed blonde. His eyes are quite large for his face, and very, very dark.
Personality: He is one of those people who just seem impossible to hate. Brilliantly cheerful and always energetic, he is not the most responsible of people. He is forgetful and easily distracted and would always rather play or fool around than keep to the schedule. He is infamous among managers for being late, the last to wake up in the morning and the last to go to bed at night, often the last to arrive at rehearsals, but it is all easily made up for. He never actually
misses an event, and he always works hard at everything the group does together. He almost never makes mistakes in rehearsals, working hard day and night to memorize his lines and his steps – one of the reasons that he almost never stands still, he is always practicing dance steps in the back of his mind. He is supremely confident in his abilities, and those of the rest of the group, and he is fiercely loyal. He takes careful care of the morale of his companions. IMAGinE is his life, and without it he doesn’t know what he would do.
Likes: Dancing, singing, IMAGinE, cross-dressing (to confuse people), learning other languages, practicing, driving his manager up the walls, sleeping, amusement parks, dogs, running around, roughhousing, playing in the snow, playing in the water, horror movies, cakes, cooking
Dislikes: Sour food, romance movies and novels, everyday normal clothing, sitting still for too long, being bored, sleeping early, waking up early, studying anything that he did not decide to study by himself, boring people
History: Sangyun does not have a very eventful history – he was a normal kid until about the age of seven, when he was picked for the lead role in his school play. The catch? The play was Snow White. In a single event he discovered that one, he made a very good girl, and two, that he never wanted to be anywhere but the stage. He started looking for careers, at the age of seven, that would put him up in front of an audience. Make him a Korean idol. He had always had a talent for dancing, a beautiful voice, an attachment to music – he chose that path. The single child of Gae Hyun Jae and Gae Iseul, he was remarkably lucky to have two parents who supported him every step of the way. He was fifteen when he auditioned for RT Entertainment, and he has been on the idol path ever since.
Extra: He has always desperately wanted a dog. He just never had the chance to get one. He also, someday, wants to have a normal romance. Or an abnormal one – he doesn’t care as long as they’re in love. He tends to be cuddly and clingy with the other members – he has become a vessel for fanservice among the… well, the fans.
