lonely child born of nepotism, sarang chung is introduced to the world as the product of a loveless marriage between an olympic medalist and his renown haute couture model of a wife. the child is fawned over & said to be destined for greatness from her formative years, but the flashes of paparazzi cameras conceal the fact that sarang's talent pales in comparison to that of her parents.

concept: is it freedom or is it loneliness? / concept: tender, only when you want to be.

she's introduced to the world of figure skating under the performance name pippa upon a failed attempt at kickstarting her career as a child actress. she trains tirelessly, almost exhaustively — the sound of blades scratching ice is one of her earliest memories & she recalls it fondly, until she doesn't. energy spent solely on mastering the sport & contending to international competitions, her wellbeing is neglected under the strict order of her parents. she remembers the first loss like a knife & decides then that it simply is forbidden to occur again.

concept: there are ways of dying that don't end in funerals. / concept: when will you stop belonging to this hungry thing inside you?

█████████ [...] the pressure building alongside the burden of perfection she bears, her severe exhaustion & burnout should come as no surprise, but they do. rumours of pippa turning to substance abuse circulate throughout the sports community. one ill-fated competition proves itself a challenge too far as she misses the landing of a pirouette & breaks her leg on ice, horrifically broadcasted for the entire world to witness. after taking a year away from the spotlight, she's attempting to pivot her career into the modelling industry as skating's been deemed too dangerous for the time being.

concept: you are not too far gone to be healed, are you ?

explain your reputation. what caused it and how do you feel about it?

❛ there's no such thing as bad press, that's what my publicist has always said. ❜ she bows her head coyly, a dramaticized show of her disagreement. she still hasn't quite mastered the art of sincerity. ❛ but i simply beg to differ. the support i receive from my fans means the absolute world to me — to know i'm someone others look up to is an honour, so i try my hardest to put my best foot forward. after the accident — ❜ a sharp pause follows, open faced palm reaching out and over her chest. ❛ after all the love and wishes i received, that really solidified it for me. i'm grateful for those that believe in me, after i almost lost everything. ❜

how far are you willing to go to keep your secret buried?

❛ secrets ? i don't have any of those. i've been an open book with my supporters [...] i hate the term fans — after the accident, i want to show you all the most sincere version of myself. yeah, that put a lot into perspective for me, especially after the murders. i've learned not to take a single thing for granted. ❜

much of her background needs to be redacted since it ties into her secret but we'll discover it together and have a great time <333 tl;dr my ex-figure skating champion tragically transitions her career into modelling following a fluke accident that prevents her from competing further

her fans adore her and her reputation outside hollywood is great, but industry insiders know the #real pippa that has temper tantrums, a bratty attitude & is difficult to work with 😭😭

she can be a bit ... mechanical in her interactions, in the way her sentences are carefully curated unless she's lashing out fjdosdjosdjsd... it takes a while to break past that barrier with her otherwise she appears like the squid game doll to the naked eye

ultimately..... just wants to be loved and needs someone to tell her that evil girls can be loved too
