Strengths: Aric is an incredible vocalist, and is almost obsessed with social media, where he loves to complain about and drag his members. He is secretly very supportive of those he is close to, and will drag anyone who insults the people he cares about through Hell and back.
Weaknesses: Aric has the coordination of a dog wearing roller skates. He is also extremely prideful and has a volatile temper. It is extremely difficult for him to admit his mistakes.
Personality: Aric has a superiority complex. His great height enables him to literally and figuratively look down on his peers. He is extremely blunt, sarcastic, arrogant, stubborn, and bad tempered. Aric is a perfectionist, and prefers to work alone because he considers others to be incapable of meeting his standards. As a K-pop star, this attitude is rather problematic. He is also extremely intelligent, and was the top student at his school. He is very conscientious, and cares about his appearance quite a bit. Aric is also extremely ambitious, and is determined to rise to the top as quickly as possible. The kind of person to not discriminate and hate everyone.
Backstory: Aric was born in Korea, but his family moved to America when he was just a baby. The Jungs returned to Korea when Aric was 13. Throughout his childhood, Aric's parents placed a great deal of pressure on him to become the best. After his older sister ran away to become a photographer when he was 12, they decreased the pressure; however, Aric continued to drive himself to success. Aric was asked to come audition when he was 15, after he performed in his school's talent show. The rest, as they say, is history.
Audition Song: "Press Your Number" by Taemin
Friendships within Group: Male Lead Rapper and Female Lead Rapper
Roleplay Example: His face set in its habitual scowl (the fangirls liked it, and so did he), Aric stiffly copied the choreographer's movements, repeating the steps several times on his own. Suddenly, he tripped, nearly faceplanting on the floor of the studio. His disgruntled expression darkening with ire, he quickly made to stand up, waving away any help. "These shoes have no traction," he grumbled, glaring at the offending article. After several minutes of steadily worsening dancing, Aric's shoelace came undone. Not noticing the wayward string, Aric attempted to execute some more complicated footwork, tripping over the lace in the process. Brushing himself off, his face reddened. Scowling even more deeply than before, he stalked out of the room.
Languages Spoken: Korean, Mandarin, and English.
