πππππ ππ πππππ . . . Angie was born in San Diego, California, and spent much of her childhood there, though she moved to Seoul when she was sixteen. She lived there until 2016, then moved back to the US to be with her uncle/cousins on her mother's side in New York City.
πππππππ πππππππππ . . . New York City, with her uncle.
πππππππ & πππππππππ . . . As a vampire, Angie feels completely ripped off because, like, aren't vampires supposed to be drop-dead gorgeous and inhumanly strong and fast and all of that cool awesome Twilight shit??? Because Angie certainly isn't. Okay, so her skin has cleared up a little (meaning that her daily make-up routine is cut in half, praise our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the Buddha Siddhartha Gautama and Zeus too, probably), but why the hell does she still break out when she doesn't get enough sleep then, huh?! The fact that she's also been breaking out every time she steps outside into the sun really doesn't help, either. Anyway . . . as far as Angie knows, sheβs gotten all the shitty side effects of being a vampire (sunburns 24/7, canβt be around garlic without puking for three days straight, bright light gives her headaches, canβt eat too much without upsetting her stomach - which is a damn shame, because ya girl loves bubble tea - and the list goes on), with none of the benefits (besides immortality, or whatever. Plus great night vision). Itβs a real struggle.

πΉπππππππ πΏπ¦. As for notable marks, the pink hair, obviously, though that's not 'cause of being a vampire. Ever since she became a vampire, Angie has found it overwhelmingly difficult to step outside into the sun without feeling like she was dying, so she has adopted the tried-and-true methods of East Asian women on blazing summer days - long sleeves and long pants and hats at all times, layers, plus an umbrella to block the sun out, wherever she goes. She figures that she doesn't look that out of place in a city like New York - there are definitely tons of East Asian international students, so most people probably just assume she's one of them. With her pink hair and the (fake) round glasses she sometimes wears, Angie blends right in.
Since sheβs so sensitive to garlic, sheβll also wear a face mask that covers her nose and mouth while sheβs out and about, too. In addition, she stocks her purse with sunscreen and carries an epipen - okay, so she's not allergic in the typical sense of the word, but the epipen works, so whatever. Don't ask her how; a scientist, Angie is not.
Finally, her fangs elongate naturally if Angie isn't paying attention or isn't being careful, but lately, she hasn't been making an effort to hide them at all; instead, she just pretends that they're fake, and she tells everyone who asks that she got fake fangs for her latest album, π΅πππππ π’ππππ ("I'm going through my angsty teenage goth phase, you guys. Leave me alone"). Most people don't question it.

Well, to be perfectly frank, Angie is...kind of a bitch, and used to be a huge attention whore (she's mellowed out a bit after being turned into a vampire, but she's still a bit problematic). Angie's perfectly aware of this, but she also like, doesn't care. With her sarcastic and irreverent sense of humor, Angie is flippant and frivolous, always brushing other peoples' concerns and criticisms off with a breezy "eat a dick" (or something along those lines). Angie is also hellaciously vain, if her fixation on her pink hair is any indication.
Although she really isn't the nicest person around, Angie's outgoing nature and spunky spontaneity (paired with a healthy dose of snarkiness) has still made her a couple of friends (and said friends are usually just as thick-skinned as Angie can be). She's a bit too cocky for her own good, and she can be blunt to the point of being cruel. Angie has no sense of tact nor subtlety whatsoever, and you can bet those knock-off Prada boots that she means something when she says it. Angie's not afraid of confronting someone head-on, and she has absolutely no patience for scaredy-cats who would rather subtweet her than talk trash to her face.
Flighty and fickle, Angie's not always very good about texting back or making plans. She's extremely petty and makes way too many smart remarks for her own good, and has quite the temper on her (Angie is both easily excited and easily angered). However, she's also quick to forgive (if not necessarily to forget), and she can be surprisingly perceptive and observant sometimes. Angie's a bit of a hypocrite in that she's not afraid to call out stupid bullshit when she sees it, but she's also very much full of bullshit herself, a fact that she will freely admit to. And although she doesn't seem to take anything seriously, Angie can and will hold a grudge until the end of time if you piss her off enough.
Finally, some people can find her downright annoying, which Angie is also perfectly fine with. She's quite self-aware, despite what one may think after interacting with her, and she's definitely not as clueless or oblivious as some people think she is-it's just a matter of if she cares enough to confront somebody about something. And, spoiler alert: nine times out of ten, she doesn't.

Angie's musical style has been described as the glittery love-child of Studio Killers, Blackpink, and Red Velvet (with a touch of Lady Gaga and Meghan Trainor); ππ’π‘π πππ π ππ π π¦ πππ πβππππ¦ πππ ππππππ, πππ ππ πππ. Her music frequently incorporates elements of bubblegum-pop, combined with a melody in a minor key, though she's also known to use arrangements that have a clear hip-hop and R&B influence. Angie tends to go pretty heavy on the synths, and - occasionally - she'll even dip her toes into a bit of a gritty industrial sound. πΌπ π‘ππππ ππ πππ π‘ππ’ππππ‘ππ‘πππ, π΄ππππ π‘ππππ π‘π ππ πππ π ππππ‘βπππ π‘βππ‘ ππππ π'π‘ π‘πππ ππ€ππ¦ ππππ π‘βπ "ππ’ππβ" ππ’π‘ ππππ π πππ‘ ππ ππππ¦ππ’π πππ/ππ π ππ π π¦ ππππππππ π (π ππ: π‘βπ πππ’π‘π-π¦ πππ‘π ππ π΅ππππππππ'π π·π·π-π·π π·π·π-π·π). When she was a k-pop idol, Angie was the rapper of the group, and her rapping style is most often compared to that of πΏππ π'π from Blackpink or π½ππππ'π from AOA (hyperlinks will take you to sample snippets).

For example, Bloodsucker's got a ton of vampire imagery. People speculate as to the metaphorical meaning behind it, but joke's on them!

π΅πππππ π’ππππ is a study in contradictions and skillful juxtapositions, starting from πππππ'π¬ steel-edged vocals πππππ π‘ π‘βπ ππππ‘βπ¦ ππ’ππππππ’π-πππ ππ "π΅ππ‘π ππ", all the way to the ominous 'I vant to suck your blood' superimposed onto the sugary-sweet, synth-driven confection of the album's titular track. πβπ π πππππ'π ππππ‘π‘πππ¦ π-πππ πππ πππππ-πππ ππππ‘π πππ₯ π€ππ‘β ππππππ π£πππππ ππ π‘βππ π£πππ ππ‘πππ π ππ’πππ‘ππππ, ππ π βππ€π ππ¦ "π΅ππππ πππππ" πππ "πΆππππ¦". The former is a fierce hip-pop track oozing confidence and charisma and featuring crisp trap beats and a hard-hitting dance break, while the latter goes for a twinkling electro-pop melody fronted by a groovy bassline and uptempo with an addicting, exuberant hook. Finally, to top everything off, πππ π‘πππππ πππ ππππππππ π ππππππ π ππ ππππππ π‘βππππ ππβπππ πππππ'π¬ π π’ππππ¦, π πππβπππππ πππππ¦-ππππ ππππ πππ ππ πΏππ£π ππ‘ πΉπππ π‘ π΅ππ‘π, which veers in a distinctly different direction with a lush contemporary R&B-meets-pop sound, heavy bass backing, and an addictive beat - topped off by smooth, sensual vocals. α΄ΚΙͺα΄α΄ Κα΄Κα΄ α΄α΄ ΚΙͺκ±α΄α΄Ι΄ α΄Ι΄ Κα΄α΄α΄α΄Κα΄

The EP then dives into the pop-funk dance track of πππππππ¦, which combines low-key sing-speaking and synth beats before blasting into the saccharine hook of a chorus in a pure bubblegum ditty based on old-school funk and R&B, and concludes with π΅πππππ¦ ππππ¦, a dance-pop track of sleek strings, echoing harmonies, and a vibrant, tinny percussion with an ominous whistle-tone hook. α΄ΚΙͺα΄α΄ Κα΄Κα΄ α΄α΄ ΚΙͺκ±α΄α΄Ι΄ α΄Ι΄ Κα΄α΄α΄α΄Κα΄
