headcanon related to my personal goals as a mun for jihoon date: song choice: savage word count: 480 notes: i ramble about how much i actually should start developing jihoon and letting him be happy and do the things he enjoys and wants to do

so starting with the basic and the thing that i have been throwing at jihoon these past two months, is him and his relationships or the lack of them. technically he isn’t the dating/relationship type but he is the flirty type. 

with that said, i really want to start exploring him in relationships. whether npc or muses, i think its about time mr lee jihoon, age 26 now, to finally get his first kiss and romantic feelings. so this can go so many ways, but im not a monster and i really do love fmdjace, so i am thinking about the fluffiest and cute ways i will explore this side of him.

he isn’t the most romantic type, but i know he will definitely put in effort. like a lot of effort.

i also really really really need to start using his points for things he wants to do. i want to get him on more variety shows as a long term cast, or even a few short term ones. i got him a very spontaneous mc award show position, which jihoon really really enjoyed and i think i should just... start thinking about what he can and should do.

his image is variety based. well, duality based, thanks to the discography that catalyst has, and i have put in quite a lot of claims in regards to variety as pre-established claims. so i think its about time i step into gear and use all those points.

a solo debut. this is something i had planned for ages, even before famed revamp and i plan on jihoon releasing a single solo album in his idol career. do well or semi well on charts and never release anything again. so i need to work on that, because jihoon has never been interested, but it will push him out of his shell a lot more.

dance dance dance dance. i need to get him to dance more, i need to remind myself he is a main dancer.  if anything he should be showing himself out in the world and reminding them. so maybe.. just maybe. that youtube channel will be a good investment afterall. 

he needs to try a lot of different things, because he is so into his comfort zone, i want to make him feel more comfortable in his skin and around people he doesn’t know. so looking into that solo debut, potential modeling, variety, maybe an ambassador, i want to explore and let jihoon explore.

headcanon related to jihoon’s goals for the next year and a bit date:  song choice: look who’s inside again word count: 460 notes: basically jihoon finally finding the spark for doing variety shows again

it comes to a surprise that it took jihoon being an mc for a single night to realize he actually wants to be one of the people winning the awards he spend announcing the whole night

it did come to a surprise, that for the first time in a while, he really wanted to push gold star to get him on more shows than before, the idea of mc/hosting more regular popping in his head as well.

overall, jihoon planned on actually attempting to go release a solo song, however, plans change and he currently wants to be able to go on variety shows. of all types as well. there are a few he really would like to get a position in, however, for now he will probably be happy with almost anything.

in terms of his idol career he has a very good idea of where he wants to be by the 2023, so he isn’t very on edge about that.

however, on a personal level it gets more messy. after having his love life talk with max in late 2021, jihoon has been in a pretty weird state when it comes to understanding why people think he dating and breaking hearts left and right. its caused him to think a bit about how he portrays himself and how he allows himself to flirt with almost anyone if he feels like it. no strings attached, nothing. it’s just him, being himself and people get the wrong idea.

so he plans to work on that. really plans on seeing if he is as un-datable as he thinks he is and he knows he will regret his little experiment. until then, he plans on talking with quite a bit of people about it, because he is pretty sure that well, love is overrated and he is happy playing video games.

in reality, as much as he seems unbothered by it and tries to keep the tone about these things light, jihoon has really taken it to heart. so its really only a matter of time until he breaks under his own pressure and caves in. he isn’t sure what he is gonna do then. 

but his little stupid goal in this department really is to just... date someone. you know, test the water and all of those cute stupid shit couples do. we will see how that one goes and he isn’t super confident he will get to do that.

solo related jihoon and his first mbc entertainment awards mc date: sometime december song choice: this is the life word count: 421 notes: jihoon’s first ever mc experience and he is ecstatic. 

the news was a complete surprise, something jihoon had never expected. he had been on quite a few variety shows, a lot less than he had been hoping for. however, it was okay. right now, catalyst was promoting every few months, end of year concerts were also a big thing and jihoon had his hands busy with something else. 

when he was called in by their manager and was sat down, he was a bit worried. nothing bad usually happened in these meetings, but you never knew. never knew what gold star had in store. however, when he was told that he would be mc-ing quite a big event he couldn't help but be skeptical.is this a joke?

are you sure? it's not another jace they picked?

no it was him, and as realization slowly sank in, jihoon's whole face lit up. he was going to mc the mbc entertainment awards. what a way to begin his career in that area. preparations were hectic to say the least, in between rehearsals for catalyst, to learning the basics, to reading the scripts, to getting a proper suit to wear. it was all hectic but he didn't mind.

over the years, jihoon had thought about what it would be like to be an mc, what it felt to be on stage and announce awards. he was always on the receiving end, listening, watching, clapping. now he had the chance to actively participate and see a lot of great variety personalities. 

it was all too quick. it wasn't enough. there was videos of him online, presenting awards, calling people on stage. jihoon enjoyed it, oh so much. so much the question of when can i give it a go again? did i do well enough to be invited next year? he wanted to do more now. mcing. wanted to do more variety shows, to hopefully win an award. he didn't think it would actually spark that interest in him again. he had given up on asking gold star for those opportunities. they had plans for catalyst and jihoon had to play his role in the group.

it’s embarrassing but i’ve pretty much had suji’s career goals for 2022 figured out since like mid-2021 so here we go!!

she started out the year by reprising her role as jang yoonbok in hospital playlist season 2. her role’s gotten even smaller with the addition of storylines here and there so it was a very low effort job on her part while equinox wasn’t actively promoting

i’ve also used the free new year’s point shop claim by giving suji a brand ambassador role with the ott service, wavve (which i made a typo on in the claim submission form so i apologize lol)

now what’s to come!! 

i’m hoping to claim busted season 2 for suji sometime mid-year. only because i didn’t want to leave such a huge gap between the seasons (especially since there’s a third season to come as well). i couldn’t find the right time to give that to her in 2021 because i was so focused on her music career, but now that i’ve loosened up on throwing songs and comebacks on suji, i’m hoping to be able to give that to her

also in mind is another brand ambassador claim for another general public brand because, if it wasn’t obvious already, i am indeed hoping for a nation’s title when it comes to suji!! it’s been in the works for a while now, but i’ve just been so busy to go back and focus on it for a while. however, i’m hoping to be able to give that to suji before the end of the year/before september or october

and the reason to that is because my plan is to give suji a full album comeback around that time. my hope is for october because i think that’s when the sound i have in mind would fit best, but things can happen here and there. nevertheless, a fall sound is what i’m hoping for so look forward to that i guess?? 

other than that, she might get a short promotional single in between love poem (which is in april) as well as her full album for whenever it’ll come out, but that’ll only happen if i think it makes sense timing-wise... so this is nothing completely solidified as a plan just yet

as for suji personally, it’s weird to say but i’ve noticed that suji actually doesn’t have a lot of friends within famed. she was never built to be the most social person out there, and her basis is being that kind of person that you think you’re close to only to find out that you know nothing about her. however, i think it’s odd that she doesn’t have someone she can really confide in minus maybe one muse around here. that’s all to say that i’m hoping suji can build some more serious/deep friendships this year?? that would mean me throwing her in more social situations and actually being good with plotting but yeah... a girl can dream!!!

jaein’s tricky when it comes to figuring out career-related goals because she’s a muse that isn’t super involved with her idol career. more than anything, she’s waiting for her contract to end so that she can actually get out of here

so really, what ends up happening is me forming a path for jaein first and then figuring out how she’ll react to it (sorry not sorry) 

laying out what’s already claimed/will be continued: she’s been made aware of her first solo mini-album. i’ve specifically made it joy’s hello mini-album because it’s a remake which made sense seeing that jaein’s not begging for a solo album, but gold star found that it’d be reasonable to give her one with her recognition as an ultraviolet member. it also plays along with her more friendly image, and it’ll work as a nice contrast to what she usually puts out with ultraviolet (especially since she has kill this love promotions soon after). she’s also been named celine’s brand ambassador in december, and this is a claim that i hope to be keeping for her for as long as i can aka for as long as i can keep up with the renewals and points 

upcoming claims that i think would work for her is also just a few additional domestic-level brand ambassador claims. nothing big and fancy because she does enough of those things with ultraviolet and celine is probably the biggest/most luxurious brand she’ll ever be the face of. i only have one brand in mind at the moment that i hope to use the free new year’s gift for, and i’m on the look out for some more simplistic brands that she could get

i, personally, have more goals for her as an individual outside of ultraviolet because that’s more important to her

first of all, i hope to be able to write more about her relationship with jaeeun, her younger sister. jaeeun’s also pretty much the only member of the ryu family that jaein is close to because they were both treated pretty much the same. if jaein was given unrealistic expectations as the oldest, jaeeun was flat out ignored and given nothing since their little brother was born soon after. they have a special bond that i don’t think i’ve expanded enough about through self-para’s and stuff. it’s probably the closest bond she has with someone, and it’s a good comforting point for jaein. it’s those little glimpses of her interactions with jaeeun where i think people will be able to see how jaein is like without the whole idol frame around her

thankfully, dowoon managed to muster up enough courage to kiss her already and seeing that now they’re more ~official~ there’s probably a part of jaein that hopes she can be a little more straightforward with her feelings. jaein’s terrible and speaking her inner thoughts out loud because she’s been raised not to. she can be straightforward and blunt about some more casual things but when it comes to deeper relationships (and friendships too), she’s not the best at itirating truthfully what’s in her mind. most of it comes from the fact that she likes to press down those thoughts and live in a state of indenial, but it’d be nice to finally get jaein to start talking. will it absolutely happen? i’m not too sure, but a girl can hope!! 

my goals align pretty well with mirae’s. she wants to expand and develop her career and i want to develop her through that. her career is what’s important to her and i suppose that could get healthy at some point down the line, but she’s good at striking a personal balance for herself where she prioritizes work but doesn’t let it completely consume her.

while mirae sees herself balancing modeling, acting, and music, my personal plans for her do lean heavier on modeling with acting secondary and music tertiary. after her viral video last year, she’s gotten some renewed attention as an individual and she’s established herself with some favorable notoriety already through successful roles in parasite and the world of the married. she’d been hesitant about taking on brand deals after parasite, when she first really started getting notable solo brand deal offers, because shilling for luxury brands or fancy appliances felt like some sort of cognitive dissonance with the connection she had to parasite, but she’s more prepared to take them on now that she’s intent on developing a solo career for herself, so i want her to do that. i do see her brand deals leaning more on the fashion and beauty side of things since i feel that fits her image better. i’m not sure if i want her to sign herself to a specific luxury clothing brand too soon, though. that’s something i’m still debating since i can see her being the type who would rather be able to have a full array of brands available to her for different shoots and events.

acting-wise, i’d like her to film another project after squid game to come out either late this year or early next. for now, i don’t want her to take on roles that throw her for too much of a loop creatively but do still challenge her — i don’t want to contrive a reason for her to take on a role she hates, but what i’m looking at for roles are ones that can connect to her outside of a professional sense and won’t all be too similar.

and then music-wise, i think i’m going to cut down the original plans i had for her. while mirae loves to perform, currently i want to prioritize modeling and acting and work any solo music she has around that instead of the other way around.
