— don't call me angel.

hana has grown restless lately. it’s only been a week since her new movie came out, but she hasn’t been sent to a single audition in that time, and despite the hectic whatta man promotion schedules, it feels like her future is slipping away from her. she won’t get jobs if she isn’t sent to auditions, not real jobs that she wants, at least. she gets a steady stream of offers to appear in low-quality campus romance web dramas, but those offers don’t mean anything to her. they’re not what she wants.

her manager taunts her with the idea of an audition. that may not be his intention, but hana’s zoning out and she hears the word audition, and she feels a drop of disappointment when she pays enough attention to get the real context. it’s an audition for a variety show she has to do, one with a cast consisting solely of idols, meaning no one would watch it and her opportunities for making new connections would be limited. he tells her she has to to film a video, though, so she does the next time she gets her room in the dorm to herself.

“i’m the goddess of wish, hana.” hana begins the video in her room with the camera held in her right hand. it’s the over-the-top confidence she plays up on variety to draw attention to her, but she also wants to make sure the casting directors know she’s more worthwhile to cast than any of her group members who’ve also been nudged to send a tape in. she might not want to go on the show all that much, but that doesn’t mean she’s okay with someone else being picked over her. “and this is our dorm,” she sing-songs with a well-rehearsed heaping serving of sweetness that she plans to keep on for the rest of the video.

“i’ve been living here for four years now, so i’ll give you a quick tour and answer all the questions you have for me!” she wants to roll her eyes at her own manufactured enthusiasm, but she’s gotten good enough at this that it doesn’t show on her face for even an instant. “this is the room i share with soojin. i won’t show you her side of the room and give away all her secrets...,” none of the other members were getting free promo in hana’s video, “but this is my side of the room. that’s my bed. it doesn’t look very slept in, does it?” she pouts cutely and swings the camera to get maple’s cage in the frame. “that’s maple. isn’t he adorable? i’ll miss him if i get the chance to be on the show, that will be the hardest part of moving in with so many other idols but not him, but he’ll understand.”

on the cue she’d planned out in her head, hana leaves her bedroom and enters the hallway. “the office and our game room are down there,” she points down one end of the hallway, “but they’re occupied right now so i can’t show you!” that isn’t true. she just doesn’t want to waste more time on filming the stupid audition. “that can be one of the hardest parts of living with the other wish members. there’s always someone in the bathroom when you need to use it, or in the kitchen when you’re hungry.” hana doesn’t cook anyway.

“this is the living room and that’s our kitchen and our dining area,” hana announces once she arrives at her destination, moving the camera focus off of her again for a brief moment to demonstrate that she isn’t lying. she keeps walking, “and that’s our laundry room. there’s not a bunch of dirty wish members clothes in there right now, so i can show you.” and show the camera she does, before returning to the living room and focusing back on her own face, which has been thoroughly made up to not look made up. “so that leads me to your last question. what has made this dorm my home? it has to be my members of course, doesn’t it?” it might not be true, but bc knows what they’re doing with selling the friendship thing among the girls, and hana is well aware of how appealing it can be to look so close to her group members. “i wish i could grab some of them and make them help me out with this video, but...” why would she want to put other members in her solo audition? “they’re all busy. but thank you for watching my audition. please look positively on me. this was wish’s hana and my short dorm tour!”

hana currently lives in a dorm in gangnam with the rest of her wish members, although that won’t be true for much longer since wish will be allowed to move into their own places soon. she shares a room with soojin in the wish dorm, but insists to this day that she deserves arabella’s single room.

hana never really had to be tidy growing up. her mom, or her parents when she still lived with both of them, always hired a cleaner. that said, she does care a lot about appearances and will generally keep her side of her room clean, especially if she’s expecting company, but good luck getting her to clean any communal areas of the dorm. she’ll claim she didn’t contribute to the mess so it’s not her problem.

her room is decorated with only top tier items, including egyptian cotton bed sheets that she completely replaces with new sheets every two to three months. the decoration is largely impersonal and you won’t find pictures of her with her family or friends. the most personal thing in her room is her journal, which she keeps in one of her drawers and refuses to let anyone else read.

she has one pet, a dwarf hamster named maple who she bought just after wish debuted and keeps in a cage in her room. some sort of a reptile like a snake might help keep up her reputation better, but hana’s very attached to maple and will not take anyone talking shit about her having a hamster. hana loves animals far more than she loves people, so maple probably gets to see the sweetest side of hana out of anyone in her life.
