with minimum knowledge about her life before her burst into the idol world in twenty fifthteen, featured on the survival show that formed idol sensation twice. CHURAI NAKHON was raised in hat yai thailand, residing in SONGKHLA while being raised by an unknown family friend.
churai was raised into many talents, her adoptive caregiver being a woman of various talents, many of which churai picked up on. she had particularly grew up to adore dance, thirteen year old churai later picking up related dance classes && lessons. it is also spread that her late mother was a fan of dance herself, rumoured to share the skill with her daughter.
in twenty fifthteen churai featured on the survival show SIXTEEN, working towards a debut with girl group twice. a while before the release of the sixth episode it was rumored that churai had been eliminated, which was confirmed upon the release of the episode, a gloom filled aura blanketed her fandom, fans mourning her lost chance of her debut.
following her elimination churai later went to participate on survival show PRODUCE 48, competing with many other trainees for a chance at debut. going through various episodes churai passed all episodes with flying colours, coming out rank number six and debuting later in twenty eighteen as a member of short lived girl group iz*one.
after the disbandment of iz*one fans were sure that churai would re debut, claiming that if not it would be a loss of a well rounded star. rumors of her re debut spiked in twenty twenty with TALENT BOX ENTERTAINMENT but decreased again following the announcement of the rumors being fake. it was once again claimed that she would re debut in march of twenty twenty, as pictures of her with HYBE’s ceo along with fellow former iz*one members chaewon && sakura were released, the rumors being confirmed both by her && HYBE.
churai goes on to debut on may second, twenty twenty two with four other girls under the stage name HEAVEN, being LE SSERAFIM’s unconfirmed main rapper and fotg.

┈─ 𖧷 A DOLL’S FIRST MISTAKE, OH-SO FRAGILE ﹕ NAIYANA’S FIRST HEARTBREAK. set pre-debut. genre, angst. ( you can find me, right ? you can find me .. right ? ) featuring cracks in pseudo motherhood, themes of homophobia, and disappearances.
wide-eyed and afraid, naiyana is twelve when she first enters the jeong mansion. stark white, fluorescent pearl, soft creams. she’s almost hesitant to touch, scared to run her hands over silk curtains and velvet cushions lest they crumble underneath her feather light touch. like a mouse caught before slit eyes, the young girl jumped at every sound—foreign to her ears used to heavy silence and a gaping hole she knew someone had left but could never find the courage to open her mouth to ask. but it was never her fault, she was always reassured, treasured moments where her father would card his fingers through her hair with a reverence she’d always thought held both fear and awe. like she was a creature he was both proud and horrified of.
in the jeong mansion, she’d soon learn, there were rules. bow when you greet your elders. say good morning when you pass her, good night when exhaustion begins to gnaw at your senses. get ready for school with the perfectly tailored uniform already hanging on your closet door, but leave your hair alone until the miss—until jiho joined you and brushed your hair herself. just routine, she’d remind her every morning with a smile, and she would smile back perfectly just as she’d expect. routine was good. routine ensured progress, which in turn ensured stability. naiyana liked stability, so she worked her damndest to perfect her routine.
don’t wince when she brushed a little too hard. pretend not to hear the whispers of a daughter once lost, just like she was. she was here now. she was perfect.
at school, she meets ████, and her world alights in colors she’d never thought imaginable. long black hair almost onyx colored in some lighting, soft skin, pink lips that curved in a smile she couldn’t forget even if she tried her hardest. the gentleness ████ held her with left the now fifteen year old spiraling into a series of confusion and want, embarrassingly so, pertinent enough to hide shaking hands behind her back. her laugh, her touch, the echo of her voice. smitten. terribly so.
routine slips through her fingers like rainwater, rushing downwards with vigor. rumpled uniforms hastily thrown on to beat her to the bus stop, sock sliding down one leg, shirt half tucked. ████ would only laugh, unaware of naiyana’s poor heart beating, bursting to life as she crouched down to pull her sock up, as she drew impossibly close to straighten her collar and tuck her shirt back in. gentle, her touch fleeting, gone just as quick as it would make an appearance. it should have been an omen of sorts and yet it lit her skin up aflame, breath stuck in her throat as ████ lifted her fingers to brush wayward strands of her hair away from her face.
routine crashes and burns as naiyana falls head first into what she thinks might be love. how could this be love? she half-listens to the girls that surround her gush about their own fleeting crushes, hopping from one nameless boy to the next as soon as the one prior loses his aura of cool or mystique. how could this be love when the thought of ████ makes her want to light her very soul on fire with the knowledge that she would burn with her in tandem? that when she leans into her for too long, when her fingers brush hers when they walk side by side, when she so much as looks at her for a second too long, naiyana feels the very center of the universe blossom in her chest? how could that be love when she’s here bursting to the brim with want?
her first kiss is underneath a bus stop in the rain, sharing an umbrella and giggles and shrieks as cold water soaks into their short-sleeved shirts. wet hair plastered to her face and socks drenched wet and ████ has never looked more beautiful to her than now, stopping right in her tracks to tremble with a vigor the other girl foolishly mistakes as cold. concern flits over her features in a way that makes her heart trip and stumble, gasping wetly as wet fingertips gently run over her cheeks.
naiyana holds the umbrella when ████ kisses her, her palms warm against her face despite the chilled wind, and she thinks the world could end right then and there and she would die happy. she’s foolish when she asks for another, begs for a third, and promptly forgets about her surroundings until the telltale sound of a horn startles them apart with shy laughter and hastened running to catch a missed bus.
routine is promptly disregarded, waking up hours before the miss—jiho—does, out of the door before the older woman can even utter a good morning. naiyana wakes up with tiny braids in her hair and kisses long seeped into flushed cheeks, and forgets where she is for too long. forgets the house she’s living in, whose roof she rests her head under.
they get caught tangled in each other's arms in her garden, flower crowns in each other’s hair. jiho screams, curses ████, yanks her off their picnic blanket and back into the house before naiyana can utter a single word. she’s disheveled, a mess and a half of frazzled nerves, but she doesn’t care. she follows after them, tears budding in her eyes as her heart thuds in her ears.
she begs on her hands and knees, crying before the wild eyes of the woman who had taken her in. ugly sobs caught in her throat, she begs until her voice runs shot and her tear tracks seem to be permanently etched into her face. all she receives is a prim once over and an order to return to her room. the last time she sees ████ is when she risks a terrified glance over her shoulder, meeting the girl’s soft smile before she’s quickly ushered into her room by househelp.
jiho wakes her up now. jiho stands by as she gets ready, red hot shame lighting a fire down her spine when she settles back into her routine, brushing her hair back as if the girl in the mirror before her hasn’t been promptly unraveled. she once tried to ask about ████’s whereabouts, why she hadn’t been seeing her at school, in the halls, by the bus stop. jiho’s reflection had turned chillingly still, pausing with her hairbrush in midair like a marionette. she’d never had the guts to ask again.
she kept her head down, hid her tremors behind the perfectionism this mis—jiho wanted, and smiled when she was smiled at. said her good mornings and good nights, made sure she left the house without a single hair out of place, and tried not to cry when the lights dimmed low. jiho hated when she looked too puffy in the morning.
WEAKNESS WILL LEAD TO ELIMINATION.
SYSTEMIC LIFE is a company founded by kwon minhee in XXXX with the mission to eventually eliminate all humans. kwon believed that the things that made us humans, things like emotions, made us weak. if we eliminated what made us human, that would make us powerful.
SYSTEMIC LIFE would pump out androids left and right, finding immense success in reimbursing society after eliminating the civilians that originally lived there. but with how quickly that they were pumping out these androids, the more susceptible they were to defects. while most defects were minor, like the wrong hair color or something, some were more severe, such as the androids being aware, feeling emotions and pain like a human would.
by the time that the company realized the problem it was too late, too many of them had already been put out into the world. so they began to hunt them down, any trace of emotion or pain, would lead to elimination immediately.
that’s where the GLITCH members come in, all six of them are “defected”. because them being defected makes them a target, it means they are constantly on the run from the officers.
( 🎸 ) promise to get a little better as i get older.

THRASH: YOUR GO-TO SITE FOR BAND NEWS AND GOSSIP!
Roxie Perez sold her Los Angeles home six months ago after the sudden and mysterious disbandment of 'THE HEX PROJECT', the indie-rock duo between her and her twin sister Pheobe, and hasn't been seen or heard from since until now.
TMZ's favorite starlet was always known for making her entrance and that she did on January 10th. Appearing after six months of silence in the most unlikely of places: The Kband Bones and All's Instagram account. Roxie appeared in the group's comeback teaser, announcing to be the group's newest vocalist and lead bassist.
Roxie's fans, foxies, were puzzled by this sudden career move. Later on the group's first live stream as a six-piece, it was clear Roxie's Korean wasn't the best but that she was "working really hard on it" by taking classes and studying with Cherry as the pair seemed very close, sitting by each other and giggling throughout the live.
The group discussed their comeback, how their studio sessions went as six, and their excitement to show Osseites a new side of them. Though fans were a bit thrown off by this announcement, most seemed very supportive of Roxie's addition to the group, especially seeing how well Roxie seemingly got along well with all the members.
Bones and All is set to come back in late January.
[ SPEAK YOUR MIND ! ]
[ #TEARSBEA ] Ugh, Roxie is joining Bones and All? Seriously? After the drama with her sister, I thought she'd just disappear. Now, she's attempting a comeback with a Korean band? Sounds like a desperate attempt for relevance.
[ #ROCKSTARROXY ] Roxie's comeback with Bones and All is like a breath of fresh air. Yeah, the language thing was a bit funny, but who cares? She's clearly putting in the effort to fit in, and the chemistry between her and the band is undeniable. Can't wait to see what they bring to the table in late January! 🎸🤘
[ #HARMONIZED ] Okay, great, but where's Pheobe? Last time I saw her was being chased by TMZ after THP's disbandment...Roxie didn't even mention her once during the live. Can I get an update? Please???
[ #BAEBIBLEND ] Roxie joining Bones and All? Are we supposed to be excited about this? The live stream was a mess, and her attempt to bond with the band felt forced. I don't see how this move is going to benefit anyone. It's like they're trying to revive something that should've stayed in the past 🙄
[ #BONESNCHERRY ] Say what you want, but Roxie joining Bones and All is shaking things up. The livestream had its awkward moments, especially with the language barrier, but you gotta appreciate the effort. Looking forward to the comeback and witnessing this new dynamic unfold. Change is good, right?
[ #FINELINELUKE ] Roxie trying to reinvent herself with Bones and All? Honestly, I'm not buying it. The language struggles on the live stream were cringeworthy, and it feels like she's just trying too hard. Maybe it's time for Roxie to accept that her time in the spotlight has passed.
[ #WEIIIIIIMEEE ] No one is saying it but I will! Jiho looked good as fuck!! I love you pretty boy 😚🫶🏻

MUSIC VIDEO
NOTES ABOUT THE ERA
౨ৎ the release had mixed reviews, of course. almost fresh off the coals of sumin’s abrupt leaving, fans were either excited about the single dropping or disregarded the group altogether. majority of the comments were fans fighting amongst themselves about whether or not sumin had been forced from the group and if the bullying allegations were even true.
౨ৎ in an unexpected turn of events, sumin herself issued support for the girls in a soon deleted instagram post, applauding the girls for such an amazing song. sumin expressed deep regret for her actions, stating she wished she could go back in time stop herself and her actions. all in all, she wished the girls good luck. fans were not sure whether or not to praise her for supporting the girls even when she nearly cost them their debut or to chalk it up to her banking on the girls’ success.
౨ৎ discourse aside, VIXENS were praised for their melodic vocals and soft sound as they truly did look like a group of friends having fun. praise especially was hailed for MEI and XIÙ’s melodic high notes in towards the end of the song, MISO’s dancing abilities, and HYEJIN’s impressive range — many predicting the quartet would give many prominent girl groups a run for their money.
౨ৎ the music video garnered a startling 1.6 MILLION views within the first 24 hours, shocking not only netizens but the girls themselves. online forums speculated it being from the media surrounding the group, but the girls had no complaints. VIXENS would later release a 30 second video celebrating the success to their social media, further heightening the humility and gratefulness the group had become synonymous with. in a heartwarming caption, the group would thank fans and viewers for sticking with them this far, promising new, better, and greater things in the future.
⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ STARZIE is a seven-member fictional coed group that debuted on january 7th, 2024, under stellar entertainment. the coed supergroup was formed through the idol survival show "SHOOTING STARS" which premiered in 2023. the show's purpose was to gather currently active idols and put them up against each other in order to form the ultimate coed group featuring the highest-ranked idols.
the supergroup made their debut shortly into the new year with the mini album "mission one: take off" and promoted their title track "crush", as well as other b-sides from the album. their debut was garnered as both a domestic and international success, boosting STARZIE into the super rookie category very quickly despite only just debuting.
with the group being made up of some of the most popular idols from multiple generations, the public has opened their arms to the group while also throwing harsh criticism their way. many fans are excited to see their favorite idols pursue new activities and release different music alongside other highly popular idols, but due to being a coed group, the public has expressed concern over how scandals and rumors are bound to happen.

CHUU — Y Magazine (Jan 2024) ph. Kim Hyeongsang, styled by Kim Seongdeok
how do u guys like maintain one or two blogs / ocs bc i have two groups alr nn already have ideas for more
as promised, here it is! i’m not here to tell you how to plot out your story, or how to write your characters’ personalities. the tips i’m sharing are more on formatting and structure, secret (not really) cheat codes to instantaneously make your already written work even better!
my qualifications? being a tumblr hag for over five years (my even more embarrassing pre k-pop writeblr included!) so i’ve unlocked quite a bit of secrets and discovered some eurekas throughout my time here HAHAHAH. anyway, let’s start!
#1 VARIETY IN PARAGRAPH LENGTHS, SENTENCE LENGTHS, AND SENTENCE STARTERS.
nothing turns me off more than seeing paragraph blocks after paragraph blocks when looking for some new fics to read, especially when you’re reading from a cramped up device such as your phone.
when i write a lengthy paragraph, i try to follow it up with a one-liner, or a mid-sized one. but it’s something i consciously keep track of— when i noticed that, “oh, this gdoc is getting a little too wordy, a little too chunky,” i make sure that my next paragraph is significantly shorter than the current one because it keeps the entire page interesting. one to two sentences of lines of paragraphs after another and another doesn’t look pretty. chunks of paragraphs after paragraphs is boring.
make your pages visually dynamic by ensuring variety.
like this, for example.
→ fic: home for the bitchless.
seeing a large chunk of text and a singular line immediately after also sort of forces your reader to stick around and read an otherwise intimidating lengthy paragraph because— oh! what could have possibly led to that singular like of dialogue or thought! #subtlemanipulation you get me? 😔🤙
this rule of mine applies to sentences and phrases within the paragraph as well!
→ fic: love vomit.
and as a bonus, you can use paragraph breaks and cuts to your advantage! manipulating the way a sentence or paragraph ends in a certain way makes your works more rhythmic! and, when you play it around the right way, abrupt cuts and breaks also add the right mood and drama to your work!
→ drabble: the boy who cried wolf.
part three of tip number one (one…we’re still at number one…) is on sentence and paragraph starters. i keep it as a rule of thumb that if i start a paragraph with “you,” or with someones name, i don’t use it again in the next one to avoid monotony. it’s a very miniscule thing really, and i doubt that people notice this HAHAHA but this is something i religiously swear by because repetitions like this are visually boring.
→ wip: sunwater.
of course, this can’t be avoided all the time, and repeating the sentence starter “You” or any other pronoun, word, or phrase can be intentionally utilized to strongly drive a point. just don’t overdo it!
→ drabble: patience, patience.
→ blurb: monsters don’t hide under the bed.
→ fic: the psychology of strawberries.
there are other good and strategic uses for repetitions as well! we’ll get to that later.
lastly, variety in sentence and paragraph starters doesn’t simply mean changing up the first word. things can still get really boring even if you use “you” or a character’s name interchangeably if your sentence structure remains the same.
this, for example, is monotonous.
the structure (and length) of all three sentences are the same. A does this. B does this. A does this. and even if you switch things up but still use the same sentence structure, it still falls flat. case in point, below, a structure i often see in a lot of fics i stumble across.
those are flat. those are boring. they don’t…you know…make you feel something, even when you follow the rule of not using the same starter twice. let me try improving it by adding more variety in the sentences (+ adding a tip that i’ll be discussing right after!)
the word “He” here is used twice to create a rhythm and draw emphasis, but the rest of the excerpt maintains a sense of variety to make the narrative more interesting and compelling to read.

#2 PICK A POV AND STICK WITH IT.
before i start a scene, a drabble, or blurb, the first question i ask myself is, “whose point of view do i want it to be in?”
one, it’s a lot neater, more organized, than omniscient point of views in my opinion (unless you’re like a super fucking skilled writer of course HAHAHHA). two, it allows for a bit of mystery, suspense, and engagement because you don’t have access to what other people are thinking about, and three— in line with the first tip— when you know whose brain you’re in when writing, it allows for more dynamic narrations, gives you an excuse to be messy because our internal thoughts are messy as well, and makes the writing a hell of a lot easier when you’re focused on monologuing one person alone!
when writing shorter fics, drabbles, or blurbs, i swear by this rule, no excuses HAHAHAH but when writing longer fics, sometimes i switch around the point of views per scene, just to make a more well rounded story.
sometimes, the point of view doesn’t even have to be any of the main character’s! writing from an external POV is also really fun and adds another layer of interest. see example below, a Jeonghan breakup fic written exclusively from the perspective of the outsiders. very fun idea!
breakup scene written in Seungcheol’s POV.
another squabble written in Seungkwan’s POV.
→ wip: the breakup soup.

#3 REPETITIONS AND THEMES = COHESIVENESS.
this section contains tricks on how to wrap up your fics into one cohesive little present with a pretty ribbon on top!
first is the use of repetition. use a cool funky line at the beginning of your story, and reuse/rehash/revise it at the end for a neat finish, especially when you have trouble figuring out a way to end your story (lifesaving hack! trust me!)
i use this mostly in my shorter works—
→ drabble: you’re my bucket list.
→ blurb: louder.
—but it works just as well with longer fics, especially when the repetition is all throughout, and not just at the start and finish.
→ fic: mogi.
sometimes, it doesn’t even have to be a repeated phrase or line! it can be a little gimmick and it’d still work to make your fic cohesive! for example, in the fic below, i use the giving of strawberry candy/strawberry kisses to tie all the different scenes together because this was initially a set of separate drabble ideas wrapped into one long fic.
→ fic: the psychology of strawberries.
and for this one (another ricky fic….yes…..) i use the whole cat metaphor to do the same.
→ drabble: yours to keep.
the next tip to make your work cohesive is to grab a singular theme, object, whatever, and take advantage of it for your narration HAHAHAHHA this can be better explained by looking at the examples below.
theme: citrus.
→ drabble: citrus in the morning.
theme: storm.
→ blurb: blizzard.
the above examples are my shorter works, but it can work for longer fics as well! just check out this 36k word monster HAHAHAHHA.
theme: seasons.
→ fic: love vomit.
these are very simple ways to make your fic more put together! even if it’s just a simply blurb about a confession, adding a theme to aid the imagery bumps your fic quality to a +++++

#4 THROW AWAY THE Y/N’S!
now this one is quite honestly just a personal nitpick HAHAHHAHA but seeing the word Y/N when i’m reading something really pulls me out of my immersion. (and i only stopped using Y/N’s in my fics at the start of my 2023 comeback….so if you see my older works still using it…hahahha please don’t prosecute me).
anyway, you can do this either by embedding it in the narration—
→ fic: star studded baggage.
—or by using nicknames and titles instead!
→ wip: the breakup soup.
→ fic: can’t handle this.

#5 GET INTO THE (UN)NECESSARY SPECIFICS.
instead of just saying “Your professor called you,” grab a random last name and say “Prof Yoon asked to see you in his office.” instead of saying you went to the cafe, the mall, the store, grab an actual place or make one up because no one in the world says “they’re going to the cafe to grab a frappe,” (unless the store’s name is actually The Cafe). people say they’re going to Dunkin Donuts or Coffeebreak or wherever.
sure it’s not plot relevant, sure it’s not integral, but little things like this make your narrative and dialogue a lot more realistic and less awkward. it makes it seem like your characters are actually living inside a world of their own.

#6 GRAMMAR AND FORMATTING.
these are given HAHA but when i talk about grammar, i mean making sure that the commas and periods are consistently inside the quotation marks when writing dialogue. i mean minimizing the use of italics because overusing it can ruin the reading experience of a good piece (i was guilty of this too!) and i mean making sure that the use of tenses are consistent all throughout (unless if it’s a creative and plot choice), because all these things really matter if you want your fic, drabble, or blurb to be of overall high quality.
and that’s basically it! hope these tips help somehow...hope i’m not revealing my secrets for naught and someone can actually put them to good use HHAHAHHA what’s most important obviously is that you’re having fun with what you’re writing…etc. etc. insert inspirational you can do it speech here.
anyway, happy new year! and happy reading and writing<33
