Personality.
nari's nature is best described as a seductive vampiress, but she's also an overly excited golden retriever at heart. the closest friends knows her best as the type of person who likes to crack jokes and able to dissipate tensions in rooms with her variety of humour. her generally fun and easy going personality has found herself to be in the company of many friends, as she flocks her way to groups and easily adapt into social environments. she loves to get to know people and figure out the intricacies of their personalities, the stories they have in their life. she is very well-liked and has gained a great reputation because of it. her charm not only make people feel comfortable around her, her charisma has also recently oozed in the stage. even her just staring at you could make you melt on the spot. she's confident enough to show it to the world, she always makes the first move and is always ready to take the risks to achieve her goals. a part of her that people need to really focus to notice this is how observant she is. it's not only just based on remembering things, sure she remembers where you left your keys and she knows how to get around in an unfamiliar places, but she also picks up on things very quickly. the way she can read people and her being able to read the room can honestly be terrifying. she'll be the one to notice your little mannerism or your ticks, what makes you angry or what makes you happy. she'll be the first one to notice if something's wrong or if something is going on. if someone is having a problem or there's a change in their usual personality she'll be the first one to notice. nothing gets out of her sight
the soon to be "seductive icon" lives up to the honour of that name. although most of the time she just does it for the laughs, the way she flirts can take quite the effect on people. it's not like she's unaware of it, most of the time she revels in it. she likes to do it mostly to the fans, as some of them will become a bumbling mess (which is her favourite reaction) or they'll flirt back (which she'll be very impressed). she never does it out of harm of course. a part of her that is still very child-like is her mischievous side that likes to poke fun on the other members. she just like to egg on them for a reaction. her observant nature come into play when she dances. mother always tell her to pick up on movements quickly so that she can understand the depth behind it & perfect her dance. it has been her mantra for years and she has taken it up a notch with her learning skills. adrenaline is her best friend, anything that involves pumping up those dopamine levels and intense sensations gets her going. when it comes to these things, she's not really motivated by danger nor is she deterred by it
but with her love for adrenaline, she always seems to throw herself into any high-risk situations that can seriously harm her. even her charmingly adventurous personality can be highly dangerous, sometimes it's pretty hard for her to stop. especially if someone if challenging her. a lot of the older members still wants to protect her even with her very boisterous personality. as they know the nari they witness growing up together still has a pretty sensitive heart. she never show it to anyone that she doesn't know, as a matter of fact she would prefer people to not know. the child in her heart feel things very deeply and would get overwhelmed easily. it is something that is hard for her to change, albeit very easy for her to hide. as someone who is pretty adventurous, she always avoids emotional conflicts between people. when she already senses that the air in the room is off, she would want to run away and not deal with the situation. she doesn't like confronting people nor does she like to be the first person who speak up about it. the more childish part in her can only be triggered when she's really angry or upset, she would take unnecessary grudge and be very vengeful about small things. at the smallest comments or actions, she would have some kind of angry bravado of "i'll prove them wrong!" when she could've just ignore them. she's used to people liking her that she becomes baffled and full of herself when someone doesn't. it is honestly her insecurity in disguise. the hundred and thousands of compliments and validation will immediately be defeated by a word of disapprovement. so imagine how she reacted when she receives a huge amounts of criticism or just pure hate in her idol life. even if her facade is a lion queen, she is still a tiny spring princess at heart
Background.
the moon twins has always known dancing ever since they were little, as their ballerina mother wants her daughters to follow in her footsteps to becoming a world-renowned ballerina. but after a few years of listening diligently to her mother, moon nari has other plans for herself. she started watching other people dancing other styles in her mother's studio and started imitating it. one of the dancers noticed and started teaching young nari the movements, in which she picked up very quickly and danced joyfully. she started to do it more often that she starts to do even in her ballet classes, baffling her mother and elicit a scolding. nari grew weary of ballet and told her mother she wants to do other styles. she starts taking classes in other styles from mother's studio, and one of those studios are the newly opened 1MILLION studio. nari quickly become a regular in that studio and as one of the great dancers, she became featured a lot in the dance studios, even some of the instructors asked to dance with her in a duo. at 18 she became a teacher's assistant for hyojin choi and occasionally park bongyoung & lia kim, becoming known around the studio as a staff. that one faithful day happened in june of 2017 when she just finished a class, a man that has watched from outside the class approached her and gave him his contact number, saying that he is from an entertainment agency. nari is not completely oblivious to the idol world, her twin sister herself has decided to take a path to being an actress. not to mention some of the instructors has choreographed for a few kpop idols, so naturally she is curious. she consulted with said instructors on whether she should take up on the offer or not. they warned her that the idol path is a strict and difficult one, but if it's truly what she wants then they'll support her. after finishing up 1MILLION show & consulting more with her loved ones, nari decided to take a shot on it and she is on the path to stardom with BOX entertainment

Relationships.
twin sister / 문솔리 moon solri (fc; 9muses sojin) / 23 / actress / solri debuted as a young actress under c-jes entertainment. their relationship with each other is not as close as people would expect them to. her mother has always force the more introverted solri to follow nari everywhere around and protect the sensitive child, whilst she wants to do her own thing. she doesn't hate her twin but they don't exactly have a tight knit sisterhood, their relationship doesn't go more than just hugs when they pass by each other, general conversations and introducing each other while the camera is around. but behind those cameras, solri barely even look at her in the eye unless she really needs to. nari is deeply wounded whenever her twin sister acted like this, and she tries her best to mend their relationship. but it takes two hands to clap, and solri doesn't even put her hand up
best friends / member of pandora / these two are the most beloved duo by pandora and are deemed to have the best chemistry. both of them trained at the same time and has been glued to the hip ever since. nari hypes up at everything member does and lives to makes her feel flustered. member also oddly feels comfortable with her being overly affectionate, maybe because memb er is used to it. nari always tries her best to make member feel involved. as a matter of fact, she's always involved in nari's shenanigans. they would definitely prepare a skit or even when they haven't prepare anything, nari's extrovertedness always comes out on top that even member's reaction to be really funny. they still pretty much act the same way in casual settings, you can spot them in the studio making funny choreographies or just playing games together. the staffs and other members are grateful for them being together because nari is infamous for being one of the energetic ones, so member's presence really balances their dynamic and makes her dial it back down a little bit. whilst nari is able to make member shine in ways that people don't expect. they're always seen standing next to each other and has the most selfies together
member of pandora / 고은 go eun / 22 / they're supposed to be same-aged friends, but alas the lack of exposure to each other does not lead to that. nari doesn't actually hate her as she doesn't feel that she did anything wrong, but she does feel the company made a hasty decision on putting her into a group that already has a relatively close relationship with each other. nari really tries to socialise with her and be nice, however she doesn't exactly contribute in actively being her friend. nari never stood up for her whenever goeun is treated unfairly by the other members, partially because she's too afraid to cause any conflict. she tries to make it up to her by being extra nice whenever the others are not looking. of course she feels bad for treating goeun like this, but not bad enough for her to do something about it
best friend / 표해니 pyo haeni (fc; ozarayau) / 24 / makeup artist & 1MILLION staff / haeni first started as a regular in 1MILLION in 2016, and they both become friends because nari wanted to make the girl comfortable during her first days as a student in 1MILLION. that interaction was what made haeni felt less awkward or alone in her classes, eventually making her a regular and an official staff when she is of age. that interaction was also what made her become nari's best friend. they both clicked well because of their love for dance and nari strongly admired haeni's fashion sense, essentially becoming nari's inspiration on her current fashion. they acted like how typical supportive best friends would, but haeni is more of a chosen sister than a normal best friend. the 2 of them are frequently seen together on an outing and haeni is always at her side during clubbing

nari was very ecstatic just being there around multiple talented people, she was especially excited learning from the people around her. the other trainees was genuinely amused by her excitable and innocent nature, she was easily liked by them. but they warned her that not everybody is going to like her because in a way, it is a competition for them. and the trainers can be quite harsh on everyone, even towards people that has a likeable personality. nari soon realised that she's not just there to have fun, as multiple scoldings are given to her when she doesn't take things seriously. she started to dislike it, she just want to be there to have fun. but the determination of the other trainees puts her to shame, and seeing how serious people are about this, nari decided to take even more serious. by the end of 2018, she was put in the lineup for y.i's next girlgroup and things got even more intense. but she managed to go about it victorious

Scandals.
20?? / True / PANDORA's RINA caught clubbing & drunk / pandora's rina is caught on camera outside of the club looking visibly drunk, slurring and occasionally walk off somewhere whilst her entourage tries to keep her from going too far away from their watch. netizen crucified her for her actions, with multiple comments saying that she's not being womanly and trashy. the other part of the netizen says that it's okay because she is of legal drinking age and the person who recorded her was invading her privacy. [update; BOX entertainment and rina has apologised for the scandal & she promised that she will be more responsible in the future]
20?? / True but she lied about it / dispatch speculate PANDORA's RINA to be in a relationship after they took a picture of her holding hands with an 'unknown man' / this 'man' turns out to be one of the staffs in 1million studio where rina used to be s teacher;s assistant. and this man, as it turns out, is a woman. netizens mocked dispatch's incompetence and the rumour was brushed off immediately after rina released a picture with her on instagram "anita!! you're the best~ thank you for always taking care of me" [little did they know, they were actually dating]
20?? / discussion / PANDORA's RINA not improving as a vocalist? / after the recent comeback of pandora, netizens are quick to discuss the vocal skills of rina. or more accurately, the lack thereof. a lot of them discussed on how she should've been given more vocal lessons and improve each comeback, but they determined that she has not done that. some even went on a limb and said that she does not deserve to be in the group. . this caused a huge uproar from the fans and they came to rina's defense, although some of the fans also made a note that what they were saying regarding her stagnant vocals were true. netizens just hope that the company will give her more vocal lessons
