chaewon is nothing if not an impulsive shopper. she doesnât even read that much, although sheâs always telling herself she should read more. instead, she ends up with piles of books on her shelf that sheâll probably get to... someday... maybe. and, realizing that might not ever actually happen, sheâs decided to give some of them away.
âwhile youâre here, yewon unnie,â she says, âtake a look. i have a little of everything.â the books sheâs decided to part with are stacked up on the table. there really is a bit of everything - fiction, nonfiction, sci-fi, fantasy, horror, instructional books, poetry - anything that had a shiny cover, basically. chaewon picks one up to glance at it. âugh. historical fiction? what was i thinking?â
pouting, she flops down onto her bed. âyou must read all the time, yewon. tell me your secrets. how do you even keep your eyes on the page for more than five minutes? am i doing something wrong?â

the moment may have passed for the dessert challenge, yet it had remained on chaewonâs list of choreo to tackle. she may not be the most knowledgeable about idols, but everyone knows chi chiâs a-zi is a queen, especially in the dance world. thankfully, one of her dance colleagues was still up to learning the dance with her.
âthis song makes me hungry,â chaewon complains, dropping onto her butt after a run-through of the intro. chocolate candy fruit, honey butter waffle and... it makes her want to pig out on sugar, and she has brought some sweet snacks for the occasion: a plate of assorted cookies from siyeonâs bakery, much better than the ones chaewon scorched to oblivion not so long ago.
she scoots across the floor to grab her backpack and digs out the plate, then holds it up in the air like a trophy. âsurprise!â she yells, eyes scrunched tight as she smiles. itâs partly a balm for her own sugar cravings, and partly a token of appreciation to the guy for partnering up with her. plus maybe a dash of flirtation, because she can never resist. âwant a cookie, yuto oppa? thereâs like ten different flavors.â
thereâs a dance competition show that chaewon just has to see the finale of, so sheâs staying up late. sheâs camped out on one of the sofas in the living room, sprawled out and cozy in sweats with a bowl of popcorn in her lap. itâs well past midnight, and sheâs caught herself nodding off several times during the commercial breaks, but she wants to see this live.
behind the giant flatscreen, all is dark and quiet. a wind blows gently through the trees beyond the floor-to-ceiling glass windows. but eventually, the night is pierced by yellow headlights. itâs kwon sangil, ceo of kon industries. chaewonâs father. the valet is returning him home at almost 2 am. nothing unusual.Â
fixated on the screen, chaewon doesnât turn around when she hears the front door click shut and her fatherâs heavy footsteps lurching through the kitchen. when he turns the corner, she finally glances up, mouth full of popcorn. he looks a bit worse for wear, hair messy, top buttons of his shirt undone. probably out drinking and shooting the shit with the other top execs again. nothing unusual. sangil stands there and stares; itâd be creepy, heâd look like a serial killer, if it were anyone else.
âwelcome home, father,â chaewon calls out casually, lifting a hand from the popcorn bowl to give a tiny wave.
âchaewon...â he mumbles, leaning on the counter with his left hand and rubbing at his face with the right. âwhat are you doing up so late?â
âjust watching something.â she shrugs, leaning back into the soft grey suede.
âwell...â a long pause, then he rolls his shoulders. âdonât stay up too late.â and with those parting words, kwon sangil shuffles off into the dark hallway, probably to roll into bed next to his wife and pass out. oh, the life of a top businessman. chaewon canât help but snort. how typical.
the show finally ends, and the person she was rooting for most came in second place, so itâs about an adequate result. she flicks the power button on the remote, stands up, stretches, and heads to the kitchen to leave the bowl in the sink. the housekeeper will take care of it in the morning.
as sheâs heading off to bed, chaewon runs her fingers over the counter and catches something between them. a gossamer thread. she lifts it up in the moonlight to inspect it. itâs a hair. a long hair. hers? no, it looks more blonde. hmm. her sleepy mind is too mushy to analyze this, and by the morning sheâll have forgotten all about it. she lets it fall to the cold stone floor and heads up the stairs. tomorrow, sheâll be lucky if she catches a glimpse of her dad between his work schedule and her rushing off to dance practice. another typical day in the kwon household.
sheâd only suggested muffins for their simplicity; siyeon certainly wouldnât mind making something more exciting with chaewon in her own time. even if they spent the entire day baking, itâd be time well-spent in her eyes. any time in the kitchen not foraging for late night snacks is valuable to her, but she doesnât say anything. doubling down on how it isnât a big deal always makes it feel like it is â like her kindness isnât genuine.Â
âwe can make whatever kind of muffins you want; theyâre for you, after all!â she smiles, her eyes wrinkling and her cheeks rosy. âbran would be good, though. now that you mention it, itâs been a while since Iâve made muffins that arenât sweet. I made a ridiculous amount of cinnamon ones last christmas, and Iâll probably do it again this year. they seem to go down well in the winter.âÂ
she hums at the sudden question. a quick glance around the bakery confirms her suspicions â theyâre the only ones here, really, and thereâs a couple other staff members who can easily cover the counter should anyone come in, so why not? âsure! I donât think my manager will mind, as long as we donât burn anything.â she giggles. âwe should have everything we need; we stay well stocked.âÂ
siyeon is already cute, but the clear passion in her eyes when she talks about baking makes her even cuter. speaking of muffins, it makes chaewon want to roll her into a ball and bite into her. sheâd probably taste like strawberries.
âooh! i remember those.â the cinnamon muffins were great, perfect with a hot coffee. chaewon had nibbled on more than one while dashing to and fro picking up christmas gifts. âyes, you should bring those back. or maybe peppermint chocolate or something. whatever you do, itâll be good, right? youâre the master baker, after all.â
once siyeon gives her assent, chaewon gleefully zips around behind the counter. âoh, sweet. show me all your cool equipment and stuff.â just glancing into the kitchen, thereâs so many baking appliances that it makes her head spin. that must be what it takes to keep a pastry case stocked 7 days a week. âif we do burn something, just blame it on me. itâll probably be my fault anyway. you know what, you can just handle all the hot stuff. i think i can mix ingredients without causing a disaster. maybe.â

Oh, how she could sympathise with the girl beside her. No, this was not her ideal afternoon either, in fact, Bella does not know who exactly would consider taking a flu shot a pleasurable pass time. Perhaps the nurses and doctors who have to administer it, for the simplicity of the actual procedure. Not to get her wrong, she fully appreciates the professionals more so when they have to do something so mundane to the laymanâs eyes.Â
âYup and yup.â Chuckling under her breath as she offers the other girl a knowing smile. Her gaze following the information screen, making Bella instantly wonder if they had any of those âgood foodâ back at home. Biting her lower lip as she suddenly realized she doesnât actually remember the last time she did grocery shopping.Â
âSome pain comes with pleasure.â Bella instantly wincing as soon those words slip her lips because good God her filter has evidently left her the moment she entered that clinic. Another reason why she doesnât fancy the place at all. âSorry about that,â clearing her throat, âbut suppose youâre right there are definitely better ways of spending the afternoon. I remember seeing some health brochures by the reception, reckon itâs worth a look into?âÂ
some pain comes with pleasure. chaewon has to shoot a quick side-eye at that. the weirdos always seem to find her... but judging by the quick apology, thatâs not the case this time. so she chuckles instead, diffusing any awkwardness that had entered the room. âman, you donât even know. if i had the choice iâd be sitting on the beach right now with a watermelon and...â she huffs. âwell, i guess i can fantasize later.â
at the mention of health brochures, she rolls her eyes. âyeah, i just might be that desperate. find out if iâm a candidate for spleen surgery or whatever.â the reading material is pretty dry, but if she keeps watching this looping video sheâs going to go insane. and her cell phone reception sucks in here, otherwise sheâd just be on instagram. âat the office i usually go to they have vogue, harperâs bazaar, all the good stuff. i canât say iâm impressed with this one so far. you come here a lot?â
âOh, it went fine,â CĂŠleste waved her hand, âat least I think so⌠Katieâs super pretty in real life, even better than in her pictures,â she gushed. âBut really, thatâs pretty much all I remember.â Throwing back her hair and fanning her face, she added, âI think I was too nervous to remember anything other than that the building looks super super cool inside. Hey, maybe if I pass I could drag you to see for yourself!â She sighed. âToo bad they didnât call you back. Maybe next time?â
Chaewon was one of the girls CĂŠleste met often whenever she and her family visited Korea. She forgot how their parents knew each other, but what she did know was that they hit it off instantly, despite them barely meeting each other all that often. The girl had invited CĂŠleste to film a mukbang of some sort, as well as to catch up on each otherâs lives. And whenever food was in the equation, CĂŠleste was in.Â
Eyes staring at the menu plastered on the wall of the restaurant, CĂŠleste was pretty lost. Just how spicy was their spicy? She nodded along to Chaewonâs words, digesting them a bit. And though she by no means was good with handling spicy food, CĂŠleste had way too much pride to decline the offer (or rather challenge as she saw it). âI donât see why not, letâs go for it then!â
She was going to have a lot of fun.Â
âugh, thatâs not fair,â chaewon said, regarding KTâs ceo and her mystically good looks. âi can only hope i look that good at her age. i mean, i guess thatâs what plastic surgery is for, right?â she jokes, stirring her straw around in her glass of ice water. âyeah, itâs no big deal. i wasnât expecting to hear anything from them anyway. those big companies are ridiculously choosy.â
her mouth is already watering at the thought of those spicy noodles, and not entirely because of their deliciousness. thereâs a bit of fear mixed in there, too. but chaewon was never the type to back down from a challenge. spicy noodles, bungee jumping, scuba diving, whatever. sheâd do it. âalright!â she pounds her little fist on the table, determined. âif it gets too spicy, you can always rinse the noodles off a little bit. i donât know if thatâll save your taste buds, though.â but, having made her mind, she flags down the server and places the order. itâll surely be more than enough for both of them, even with their appetites.
she takes a sip of her water, eyeing her companion curiously. âso iâm guessing youâre sticking around in seoul for a while, then, since youâre auditioning for companies and all that.â chaewon leans back in her chair. âi just graduated, but iâm taking the year off to focus on my dancing. maybe next year iâll go to university overseas or something. itâd be nice to roam around the world a bit.â although she had plenty of opportunities to travel, sheâd never actually lived somewhere else. she was rather jealous of jimin, in that way.
âI canât believe you are making me do this. Isnât it a bit too late.â She adds a few eye-roll emojis as she continued to spam her older brother from the waiting room of the clinic. The older Son wanted her to drop by the clinic and get her shots. Something about spending an intense amount training and adjusting from her normal lifestyle.
He wasnât wrong, of course, but it was just too tedious for her to do. Olivia has tried to put this off as much as she can but then he threatened to stick their grandmother to her, now thatâs something she can never deal with. Sheâs been waiting for almost an hour now and itâs come to the point that the old ladies next to her has become friends, in a mild attempt for entertainment she turns the girl next to her. âFlu shots?âÂ
chaewon doesnât want to admit it, but sheâs nervous. as a little kid she used to run around the room screaming in terror when the doctor would come at her with a needle. her mother had to hold her down just to get her to stay still. since then sheâs gotten better at putting on a brave face - a lot better - but that fear still exists, deep down.
she glances over at the stranger who spoke to her and she canât help but pout. âyeah. you too, hmm? isnât it a bummer?â chaewon huffs, looking up at the flatscreen thatâs displaying a looping stream of health information. eating a healthy diet is important, who could have guessed. âiâm really not fond of shots, but who is? pain is not my idea of a fun afternoon. they donât even have any good magazines here.â
mina laughs at the mention of convex and the number of members that the group had. âthe more members, the more fascinating their choreography looks, right?â she says with a grin. âhonestly, yeah. i started stanning them with their original thirteen members. but thereâs been a lot of lineup changes since then.â she wants to mention how the number of members leaving makes her sad, but thankfully the new lineup change was something that rang close to the original number despite different people. not to mention, her bias is in their current lineupâŚ
the mention of k.arma comes up next and she nods in agreement over the girlâs comment on them. âtheyâre super cool,â she answers excitedly. âmy bias is mona, but i went to kilâs modelling class and sheâs an amazing dancer. iâm honestly super inspired by her, to be honest.â her tone when saying that is bashful, but she doesnât hide her shame. anything to show her pride for her favorite girl group ever.
âgot youâ she says, already grabbing her phone out to do just that task. sheâs covered two songs already by the boy group, so sheâs confident she can be able to find another song that the both of them could do that they havenât done yet. she tries her best to not act too awkward to chaewon. though itâs hard, considering she couldnât help but be a little intimidated by the way the house looked. she looks up when chaewon says something else and smiles. bold of her to assume she can do all of that. mina wishes! âiâm actually not the most flexible person,â she answers bashfully. âbut i know a bit of waaking, but iâm not too good at it. maybe we can try finding a way to get that into the choreo? maybe?â her tone raises as she says the last word, but she hopes the younger doesnât notice.
âoh, totally. the choreo looks amazing with all those bodies. i guess itâs just harder for anyone to stand out that way. i mean, some of those big groups canât give lines to everyone, and then you might as well be a backup dancer if youâre not even singing.â chaewon rolls her eyes. though sheâs not sure if it applies to convex or not, itâs a sentiment sheâs seen expressed by various idol fans. âlike, if i were in a group that big, iâd be doing everything i could to get screentime. pushing the members off stage if i have to,â she jokes with an exaggerated sweep of the arm.
after browsing through a few of k.armaâs dance videos, she holds up her phone to mina. âi think dolls could be adapted to two people well. see how they mirror each other here and there?â a manicured nail points to the screen. âsome of the moves are pretty simple but we could build on that and add our own stuff.â
at the admission that mina isnât the âmost flexible,â she crinkles up her nose and snickers. âoh, thatâs nothing a little yoga canât fix, i bet!â being flexible is pretty important for dancers, but itâs not the end of the world or anything. âyeah! we could put some waaking into the routine. iâll let you take the spotlight there and maybe iâll throw a flip in at the end.â
if siyeon could eat them regardless, she would, but she gets the feeling that even if she offers, chaewon will insist otherwise. honestly, siyeon is truly flattered â a lot more than she expected herself to be. if you want to treat someone like this, itâs painfully easy to just grab a box from a supermarket shelf and stick a bow on the top. it isnât that a bought baked gift isnât sincere, but something handmade just has so much more weight to it whether itâs a masterpiece or a disaster. maybe siyeonâs a little biased because she does this almost every day, but the extra effort goes a long way â and itâs fun.
âwho said that? and who said you have to do it all alone? we should bake together some day.â she smiles, eyes wrinkling at the corners. if her and jeno can manage to pull of her valentine maracons despite all the distractions, anything is possible. besides, everything is more enjoyable with a friend. âmaybe we can try muffins. theyâre pretty quick; less than an hour usually.â
she hums, eyes widening at her comment. the real thing? sheâs a little jealous â not only because sheâs never had authentic cannoli from italy, but also because sheâs never seen italy at all. with her parentsâ more humble riches, youâd think she was a little better travelled than most, but they had always left her in her grandparentsâ care when they jetted off somewhere. she didlive in england for a couple years, but thatâs not really the same. after all, she was trapped inside her schoolâs grounds most of the time. âoh, wow. no pressure, huh? of course you can have one, but go easy on me, okay?â
âoh?â the offer to bake together really piques chaewonâs interest. if she actually had siyeonâs help, sheâd want to tackle something grandiose. but keeping it simple is probably the best way to start, she begrudgingly admits. âyeah, we can make muffins! as long as theyâre not too sweet. maybe like a bran muffin or something.â
"yay!â she claps her hands together excitedly and grabs a cannoli as soon as theyâre offered up. the crunch and the taste are ridiculously indulgent. âmmmm. wow, talk about the benefits of being your friend,â chaewon says through the mouthful of sweetness. itâs definitely different from the ones she remembers having in italy - dishes always seem to change in translation when hopping borders - but thereâs no denying that itâs amazing. âiâll have to call it a tie,â she jokes. âitâs really good!
âso...â she leans on the counter, propping up her head as she finishes the snack. âif you have the stuff on hand, do you want to try making muffins now? the sooner i can forget about that mistake, the better,â chaewon says, pushing the plate of cookies away with a curled lip.Â

the house is definitely more impressive than what she herself was used to. it was hard not to find herself gawking at everything the moment around she steps in chaewonâs house. it was kind of hard not to when everything around looked amazing. even the cook was someone to gawk at and as she passes her with a small wave and tiny bow. sheâs not hungry, but thereâs no doubt in her mind that lady can cook anything.
she sits on the same couch chaewon sat and smiles back at her. she was right. there is a lot of room to practice. though her house has enough to practice and do a video, she will admit that she could practically fantasize about living in a place like this. but she keeps those thoughts internal as she nods her head in agreement.
it always excited her when sheâs asked to do collabs, so just being here to brainstorm w chaewon excited her in general. âah, i have a few ideas,â she states. âmm⌠recently iâve been listening to a lot of convexâs mini-album. i really liked pretty u and i liked luxeâs and k.armaâs comeback as well! so we could also do something with that.â she realizes sheâs getting a tad bit too excited over her favorites, so she calms herself down. âah, but those are just suggestions. iâm really up for anything!â
âconvex, huh? yeah, iâve heard pretty u,â chaewon says with a lazy nod. âyou a fan of them? i always wondered how people can get into such huge groups. my attention span falls off after four or five members.â she snickers. âitâs honestly impressive how people can remember all those names and faces. plus the ones who joined and the ones who left. and then those girl groups in japan with like a hundred members? forget about it.â
although itâs hard to wrap her mind around it, it is kind of interesting to hear about the idol world from someone whoâs more into it. âyeah! k.arma are cool!â sitting up straight, chaewon claps her hands excitedly. âi went to doyeonâs modeling class. sheâs gorgeous as heck. their songs are, like, so great. maybe we can do one of those,â she says with a waggle of her eyebrows.
âokay, so, iâm gonna look up k.armaâs dance videos, and maybe you can find something from convex.â chaewon leans back into the soft couch and pulls up youtube on her phone. she glances at mina from the corner of her eye. new friends often seem a little stiff when they come over, and thereâs not much she can do about it. to them itâs some palace, but to her itâs just home. she just wants to make sure minaâs comfortable. âoh, and forgot to mention, if you have any cool tricks you want to show off, like doing a flip or whatever, we should put that in the choreography too.â
juhee isnât good with new places. in fact, she abhorred them entirely. but alas, it came with being an idol, she guesses, being introduced to new and exciting things was just something she would have to get used to. ( it was unfortunate that juhee was absolutely disagreeable with change ) so, it is through no fault of her own, that she finds herself lost in the masses of a new building when theyâre out for a schedule. though, if she were to admit faults, one would be that she didnât take seulgiâs invitation to tag along with her lest she got lost on the way back â because lo and behold, out of sheer luck, here she was: lost.
but she walks, confident as could be â head held high â because of where she was. the immaculate smile on her face as she proceeds forward, as if she knew where she would end â like she was supposed to be here. as false of a confidence if any, juhee thinks.
but that confidence falters in a snap as familiarity swarms through her vision and sheâs left with the sudden taste of acid in her mouth. were her eyes deceiving her or â what was she doing here?
the features of a girl much like her own and not like it at all comes into view and she stops where she stands. again, juhee wonders how this could be.
she shakes, internally at the sight of the other advancing towards her. oh no â sheâs been spotted. did the other know she was staring? did the other girl know who juhee was? all the imaginable worst-case scenarios begin to aggregate in the span of seconds; each one worse than the last until she hears the foreign stagename rolls through the otherâs tongue and juhee isnât sure whether she should relieve the breath she was holding or pass out from fright.
it is enough to shake some of the nerves off â
âah â yes.â she nods, her smile once more is donned on her face â faulted composure once more slipped into place as if nothing had happened. nothing did happen â is how juhee thinks of it as the other girl speaks to her in kind. âthatâs me.â she lets out a small laugh, something to ease her nerves.
maybe she was in the clear â maybe juhee was thinking too hard. ( it wasnât like the other girl had ever seen juhee like juhee had seen the other before )
arenât you my sister? her wits want to ask â the darker side of her desires wish to lash out but her smile tightens. âare you a fan?â she asks instead.
honestly, chaewon wouldnât have been surprised if sora just ignored her entirely and walked away. that was the expected outcome. celebrities have better things to do than talk to randoms, especially when theyâre supposed to be working. but the fact that she acknowledges her, speaks to her and confirms who she is, is a total jackpot.
she looks kind of uncomfortable for a second, though, right before she breaks out that winning idol-smile. maybe it was chaewonâs imagination. sheâll try not to waste too much of her time. she matches soraâs expression with a beaming, mouse-toothed smile.
âa fan? yeah, i guess you could say that.â she hasnât been following and*roma for very long, truth be told. sheâs only started really researching idols since it got into her head that it might be a career path for her. but out of the members sheâs learned, sora definitely caught her eye. thereâs just something about her. maybe because sheâs new to the group, chaewon finds her relatable? something like that.
âi have to admit, iâm kind of new to the whole scene. but! iâve been following you on instagram for a little while.â she tilts her head, posing a somewhat bold question. âif you have time - i mean, if itâs allowed and stuff - maybe we could take a picture together? that would be soooo cool. or like, if not, maybe just an autograph or something. i understand if not though.â
she should probably feel a little shame at how big her ego gets when her friends ask her for help with baking. sheâs never considered herself talented at anything else, so she justifies it by arguing that itâs all she has to offer so of course, she should feel proud. truthfully, itâs just a need for validation she doesnât want to think too deeply into ever, let alone now, with miserable-looking charcoal cookies on chaewonâs baking tray and an equally sad pout tugging at her lips.
âdonât worry about it; itâs the thought that counts. besides, Iâm sure you prepared them really well! itâs easy for things to go awry in the oven; I still burn things all the time.â she tries her best to comfort her a little, but she worries her words come across insincere. it isnât the case at all, but sheâs never been the best at expressing herself. âit was a really sweet thought, chaewon. thank you, really.â she smiles, her eyes wrinkling at the corners. âas for stock, it depends what youâre up for! maybe not cookies, but we have muffins! and pastries! I just made a fresh batch of cannoli.â
chaewon musters a small smile at siyeonâs comforting words, although she knows theyâre not 100% true. siyeon is a professional who can surely avoid any baking disaster, and chaewon is an amateur, entirely to blame for her own missteps. well, itâs not like she has to cook or bake for herself anyway, thanks to the talents of her familyâs personal chef. considering that, sheâll give herself a pat on the back for even trying. âif i canât even pull off a recipe as simple as that, i guess making macarons and meringues and all that is out of the question,â she says, poking at the burnt cookies with a disdainful expression.
âyouâre welcome, unnie. next time iâll make something better,â she promises with a thumbs-up. listening to siyeon describe whatâs in stock, her eyes go wide. âcannolis! oh my god, can i have one?â it had been a long time since sheâd had one of those crispy, creamy treats. in fact...
âthe last time i had a cannoli was in italy,â chaewon says, thinking back to that vacation a few years ago. she waggles her eyebrows playfully at siyeon. âi wanna compare your creation to the real thing. not that yours arenât real, but, well. you know what i mean.â
âi canât believe you got a callback! you lucky little minx,â chaewon says, affectionately slapping the younger girlâs shoulder. âhowâd the audition go, anyway? tell me everything youâre legally allowed to.â
these hole-in-the-wall places have better food than most of the fancy restaurants sheâs been dragged along to, chaewon thinks. she did a vlog here at this noodle spot once. the owner, a nice old lady, seemed thankful for the exposure. but now she just comes here because the food is actually really good. and, with jimin in tow, maybe she can actually finish one of their massive plates this time.
âlast time i had the super spicy ramyeon,â chaewon says, eyes roaming over the massive menu printed on the wall. itâs pretty simple, mostly just getting spicier as it goes. âand it was HOT! like, i thought my taste buds were going to fall off! but i kind of want to try the fiery death ramyeon now.â she points at the very bottom of the menu, where everything is bright red and marked with a skull and crossbones. âi dunno. are you in the mood for spicy?â

( â )Â Move the symbol between the parentheses if you agree to the terms listed by the audition guidelines and also agree to be present during the official dates of the STAR BRIGHT casting â20 auditions.
"little to no makeup.â alright, chaewon can reluctantly comply with that. she gets it; these star bright people are looking for real beauty, not something hidden beneath ten layers of product. itâs a shame she canât be a little more flashy, make a real impression. but she does her best to rock the understated makeup and dark navy tee that she picked out for the occasion, running her fingers through her loose dark-brown hair over and over.
her eyes flick curiously around the waiting area, scoping out the other hopefuls. so, the raw material from which stars are made... doesnât look much different from any other crowd of young people in seoul. there are a few faces that stand out-- chaewon squints, trying to recognize one that looks slightly familiar. an ex-idol looking for another shot? sheâs prettier than pretty, thatâs for sure.
she makes a little small talk with those around, swinging her legs as she waits, and her turn comes a bit sooner than expected. good thing sheâs a naturally energetic person-- and the iced americano sheâd sipped on the way here only added to it. the bright lights in the filming area make her blink a little, but sheâs soon fresh-faced and camera-ready with a squirrel-cheeked smile.
âmy name is kwon chaewon, age 18. i just graduated high school and iâm taking some time off to develop as a dancer before starting university!â she bows her head, then raises it, her hair flipping behind her back.
why do you want to be an idol?
âah... i think it would be a great way to express myself. and a fun career. iâm an outgoing person. iâd like to connect with people and show my talents.â she nods with conviction. âiâve been dancing all my life, so i know itâs hard. and fun!â
so your best skill is...
âdancing, yeah,â chaewon says with a quick laugh. âiâve pretty much tried every style, but my main thing is hip-hop. lately iâve been learning some cheer moves, and uh... i also tumble!â she wiggles her eyebrows.
and what do you think you need to improve on?
âum...â she purses her lips and looks to the side, thinking. âi donât have too much experience singing. i donât think iâm a bad singer or anything, itâs just not something iâve practiced much. but i TOTALLY will.â chaewon laughs sheepishly.
have you ever tried to rap?
âuh, a little bit, i think.â does it count if youâre rapping along to songs at the noraebang and making a fool of yourself? chaewon clears her throat, then attempts a quick bar of k.armaâs news: ânews of breaking up... is finally here, oops...â she accentuates the performance with a few hip-hop hand gestures, but she canât keep a straight face for long. she cracks up. âah, sorry.â
whatâs the biggest obstacle youâve had to overcome so far?
chaewon blanks. âuhh... hmm.â she has to admit to herself, she hasnât faced many obstacles in life. going where she wants to go, doing what she wants to do... if anything, the only thing thatâs stood in her way is... âi guess it would be me. sometimes i donât go after all the opportunities that i get. but. iâm going after this one,â she says, clapping her hands together firmly.
whatâs your family like?
âah... weâre just a typical family, i guess. iâm an only child. dadâs always busy with work and momâs always busy with her social life,â chaewon says, with an illustrative flick of her badminton wrist. âbut theyâre supportive. really supportive of what i do. i know theyâd be proud if i became an idol.â
if not an idol, what career path will you pursue?
âitâs gotta be something involving dancing! i mean, i gotta make use of my skills, right? otherwise, i guess iâd look into fashion. i like doing makeup, putting together outfits... i dunno about modeling, but i might take a shot at design.â she nods vigorously.
and like that, the initial interview is over. chaewon is thanked for her time and she returns the thanks, then skips out of the room on light feet. as she bounces down the hall, she wonders if sheâll receive a callback. if not? well, thatâd be a huge bummer, but itâs not the end of the world, she tells herself. the universe places opportunities where it will.
