|BEAUTY| Due to having a beautician mother, she was always taught the skills of hair and makeup. This is her greatest skill, and she likes to showcase it on herself as well as on others. 

|DANCE| Her father started her off early with many genres of dance. It wasn't until hitting ten years of age that she focused in on hiphop, but even though hiphop is her main style she still pursues to learn others. 

|LANGUAGE| This girl knows Korean, English, French, Japanese, Mandarin, Cantonese and bits of other languages. This is mainly due to being an exchange student to both Quebec and Hongkong around middle school to early highschool years, but she has a knack for picking up languages with little to no difficulty.

|AUDIO MIXING| Having spent many years in one of her favourite nightclubs, she'd learnt this skill from a friend/ex lover. She pursues this talent to the side of her career as a hobby, making different mix tracks to add her own vocals to. She's no master at it yet but finds pleasure in producing a finished product.

|PHOTOGRAPHY| A hobby she picked up when living in Quebec. She has grown to take it as her second passion. On down time, she carries around a polaroid camera and goes around.

Never mind her cool appearance at a first glance; this woman is shy, sweet and quietly doting. For the most part, while her tranquil exterior doesn't show it, it's very easy for someone to earn a smile; though for those who knew of her past self, it's more reserved and less bubbly than it used to be. Over the years she's become less concentrated on over-emotional feelings, instead drifting through time however it may suit at the given moment. With almost restraint, slow movements, heavy-lidded eyes, and lips gently parted, she's like a person who's always tired or completely unfocused. She'll often just listen to what others have to say before giving a sweet smile accompanied by a nod, and then turning her head. The only time you'll see devotion or any sort of passion is when performing on stage.

While this is so, there are times where she's truly grateful for those who stick and spend time with her. If you're close enough, Hye-Ri's smile increases by the tenfold and you'll find yourself mothered till you grow sick. Though above all, she's still quite the flustered individual. Even though she's not as oblivious as she was ten years ago, there are still moments where she can't help when her buttons are pushed.

Born and raised in Icheon, Korea, Hye-Ri has two loving parents that came with a pretty average life. It wasn't until hitting a young age of five that the girl realized the potential she could have with what her parents could provide her: mother being a beautician and father a professional dance choreographer. Aside from her parents and their doings, Hye-Ri had attended school like any other girl. She joined clubs and what not, and even got interested in writing songs. No, it isn't the the blues, country style, or anything instrumental--it was rapping. At first she kept it as a secret until one opening ceremony during her
graduating year, she performed her first rap ensemble that she'd spent half a year creating. It was a total success! Everyone cheered and loved it, basically going nuts as Hye-Ri continued to perform for her school until graduation.

It was within dance practice though, did a close friend of her father came to talk to her. He saw potential in Hye-Ri to become an idol. At first she waved it off, but after much consolidation and encouragment from her parents, she was sent to audition for Fantasy Idol. 

Years have passed with Hye-Ri working in Fantasy Idol. She's grown and worked with the people there; focusing on her rapping talent until one year after leaving for a breather, everything was on a standstill. At first she thought it was alright, scoring a few jobs as acting in dramas and many horror films. At times she'd also try writing on the side, but something was different...nothing was coming to her. Like a rebelling idol in disbelief to her dying passion, Hye-Ri went out to have fun. Technically soiling her reputation as the cool (off work bubbly) ice queen. During the few years of leave was when Hye-Ri got herself into some mischief things like: hanging out at clubs, getting hooked into one-night relationships, smoking, drinking, you can guess the rest. It was during those years though, did she find emptiness in whatever she did. Nothing made her heart pound or mind whirl, she was a complete blank doll with just a pasty smile.

It was after the loss of her fedup mother's endearing support did she finally snap out of it. Going cold turkey (...not really) on her dangerous behaviour, she's determined to get back to what she loved. A bit rusty, a bit dampened, Hye-Ri is back in FI with a new concept image. She's working up new songs, and despite being twenty-nine, is working hard to make her mark in the music industry. It's been a lot easier to produce songs as of late, and if anything, the foul years were a push to keep things in the direction she wants to go most.

━She's still a hopeless romantic like she always was, except has fully given up on the idea of one true love.

━Doesn't like to wear clothes that reveal her tattoo in public, not wanting to explain herself to others despite the upkept 'bad girl' image.

━Only kept in touch with Minko during the years, staring in films and dramas together.

━Still quite attracted the Seoul's night-life, she'll quietly sneak away from her stardom to enjoy it. This is hush-hush.

━Smoking is another secret. She'll often do it in the bathroom or out on a balcony when alone.

━TATTOO REFERENCE It's so tiny...sorry;;
