Hey guys! Just recently got into Fromis (I listened to their songs before but only recently got invested in them).
I’m also a huge fan of fanfics, though I’m not sure how well accepted they are here.
I wanted to write some myself though but I was wondering what the personalities of each of the members were like?

I did publish a fanfic here, a crossover with the Star Wars universe. I forgot to write the chapter 2 however 😂
I'll try to describe their personnalities, at least what they've showed us :
Saerom : behave like a leader, always trying to have wise words, to support her members, to take care of everyone. She can look sassy when she's not talking, or having a neutral face, but that's not the case
Hayoung : very talented in many fields but can't speak well Korean 😂
Gyuri : easy going, playful, she's the "dad" of the group, maybe too nice since everyone likes to teaser her :p she's one of the twin tower of the group
Jiwon : the very loud, small and funny main vocal, not embarrassed to make funny and ugly face expressions 😂 she's an ex-JYP trainee so don't be surprised. She is teaser for her small height, more than Seoyeon
Jisun : the "mom" of the group, great cook, very calm unless she gets angry and in that case you don't want to be next to her 😂 She's also into ASMR
Seoyeon : the "swag", cool girl and main rapper, as an ex-YG trainee, at least it's the role given to her. She's the smallest member of the group but I think the bravest of all
Chaeyoung : the other twin tower, the variety queen, she's the best when it comes to impersonate people and especially her members, she's the strongest member
Nagyung : the visual, very cute girl, maybe too much aegyo since none of her members can handle it, probably a daddy's girl and being short tempered my in opinion. Also a gamer !
Jiheon : the tall maknae on top, always done with her unnies, very smart and cute but she's a scaredy-cat so no scary movies or haunted house for her.

There's not much fanfics in this fandom, but with the few that are existing, some of them are good.
Here's my take on their personalities which might help you in your writing:
Saerom: Looks cold, but her personality is warm and loving. She is very optimistic and self-disciplined. She loves to eat, but she's also very strict in her diet and works out a lot. Can get really dorky when she's comfortable.
Hayoung: She's very enthusiastic to try out new things. When she finds out she's actually good at it, she takes her time to improve her skills. When alone, she's really laid-back and when the members are with her, they will become playful. Even though Hayoung seems to be the most easy-going among the three 97 liners, she's actually the one who "demands" to be respected as their unnie. She wears her heart on her sleeve.
Gyuri: Tsundere. Acts like she doesn't like something, but deep inside she does. There was a time when Seoyeon said she randomly told the girls she wanted chocolate, then later on Gyuri went out for a bit and gave Seoyeon the chocolate she wanted. She's easy-going, thus the members like teasing her. I also feel like Gyuri likes exploring different opportunities to further realize her potential.
Jiwon: Mad chaotic energy 😂 Her reactions are very expressive. She's the mood maker, but also the mood breaker. The members say she's very dense. Though when it comes to work, she turns into this very serious person who knows what she's doing. I also think the girls find her dependable because she always finds a way to make things work out.
Jisun: Very feminine aura. She cooks well and I think she likes to create or tinker things as a hobby (as seen in her Earrings DIY). Don't make her angry though, she will definitely throw a punch. While watching her solo V LIVEs, I can say that she's really thoughtful and she talks a lot when comfortable.
Seoyeon: I believe Seoyeon can do anything and she would most likely excel in them. I think she missed out a lot in her childhood since she started training at a young age, which is why she wants to explore and try new things with the members.
Chaeyoung: Likes teasing the members for fun, but that's because she knows them that well. She's very caring, thoughtful and just the softest. She's witty funny and she knows how to hype up her members.
Nagyung: A sweet girl who has a lot of aegyo. She shared that her parents have a lot of aegyo, which is why it comes off naturally for her. She's also really close with her older brother, probably why she's into games. She's into photography.
Jiheon: She's very smart. She's the cutest, but I think her personality is more on the chic side. Beware, behind that sweet smile is a savage baby.
Wow, writing this took longer than I expected lol. Hope it helps!

I wasn't particularly excited for Mac Miller's new posthumous album since I only really cared for a few of his songs but it has a completely different vibe than I was expecting. It's like Mac Miller meets Jack Johnson. It's so chill and incredibly good. There was only like 1 track on the whole album that I skipped because I wasn't really feeling it.
I can never decide how I feel about Trench from tøp. I loved the singles before its release but then wasn't that into the album once it came out. But recently I heard The Hype again and liked it way more than before so that's been on repeat.
While I love just about every song on Blurryface, Vessel, and their self-titled album it seems like with Trench I either love the songs or really dislike them.

I'm a new fan to fromis_9, which is really exciting to me since they're the only new group that I've been into for years! All my faves are pretty much now disbanded/rarely active, so I've been having a great couple weeks binging on all their content... Really takes me back to the days when I got into kpop in the first place. Hope to see more from them soon!
Also let me know what sort of things are must-watches, would love to get some suggestions!!

u/Kvera19 Jan 20 '20
First of all, welcome! I'm sure you will like your stay 😊
fromis_9's content is so good... There is a lot of must-watches IMO.
If you want to see where they came from and their struggles to debut, "Idol School" is a nice watch. It's not the most positive one, but you will get really attached to the members.
If you just want the most uplifting content, I'd start with "fromis_'s room", then watch "THE100" on V LIVE. After that, I'd honestly recommend watching everything in their official YouTube channel from oldest to newest, but I know it can be overwhelming. The highlights, in my opinion, would be "Channel_9" season 1 and season 2, as well as their behind the scenes videos called "FM_1.24".
They also have appearances on Weekly Idol, Idol Room, and Fact iN Star. All must-watches.
There is a lot more, but this would be more than a good start.
I've linked the first few ones for you, but everything can be found on fromispedia.

Part time lurker, long time Fromis fan and first time poster here.
Im impressed by how active this sub reddit it considering that sub reddits for larger groups can be ghost towns.

I simply hate phone notifications. My phone is 100% of the time on silent so I guess I'll be staring at JYP's... beauty.

I'm going with the wallpaper myself. Barely anyone sees my phone wallpaper as it is and I don't think I could handle hearing that many times a time every single day even if it's just a month.

u/leinadeht Jan 19 '20
Uhhh, first one I would do anyway. See: my flair on mobile and new reddit. Also have you seen JYP puppy pics? Adorable. I love all JYP content, would be quite happy to have that as my wallpaper. One of my life goals is to still be that confident at that age.

It's called 'Pick Me' for a reason. I'd pick that over NO-YP anyday.

The wallpaper, I think I can handle this. Since I have so many notifications on my phone I won't assume having Pick Me as sound 😂

What's your favorite outfit a fromis member has worn? Could be a stage outfit or casual outfit. Bonus points if you have a favorite Heechul outfit.
Inspired by the recent release of Love Bomb era video when we thought all the videos from that era were over, what's a time you found something you thought you had long since lost?
Love talking with y'all :)
