Star Beam's Lesser Known Facts

Official_STRBM

Here are some lesser known facts about SeuBim:

Ryuna has a Japanese descent thanks to her great grandfather (on her dad's side) is a Japanese who work and settled in Daegu, Korea (her hometown) as a businessman (he married a Korean woman & died during World War II). His last surname is "Sonozaki" but he changed into "Song". She speaks a decent Japanese
Chaehee and her family used to move a lot around Korea (since her parents doesn't have a stable job) until they settle in Busan (& became neighbors with Jeonah's family). Before meeting Jeonah, Chaehee was a very quiet girl with no fixed set of friends
If Chloe was not an idol, she could have a professional basketball career since she also compete in interstate basketball competitions back in her younger days but one fateful evening, she watched Girls' Generation performing in American TV shows. Her mom initially don't want her to pursue the idol career but her dad supported her all the way
Hyoshin was known for being "the one with daddy issues" but she used to have a close relationship with her dad and he taught her how to sing. Since her parents' bitter divorce, Hyoshin's confidence was shattered to the point that she stopped joining choir and singing competitions and instead take up dancing just to cope up with these life changes. Her confidence restored when she sing "Nobody" by Wonder Girls in a noraebang without knowing that the current MBF Entertainment CEO was there listening to her. Also since her parents separated, she stopped believing in love until she meets Xiaojun
The reason why Jeonah hates smoking so much is because her late dad died of tuberculosis when she was 16 (he was a smoker). Jeonah and her brothers helped their mom in their cafeteria business in Busan to pay for their late dad's hospital bills and at the same time joining various contests in battle of the bands, jingle making, track and field, and singing contests since 13 years old. On her spare time, Jeonah volunteered in charities that focuses on tuberculosis prevention
Saeyoon and Jaehyun first met in an airport when he just came back from the United States while she is about to start her exchange student program in Japan by accidentally bumping into each other (Sae forgot her favorite embroidered handkerchief because she was rushing to board on plane and Jaehyun picked it up and keep it for some time) without knowing that they will meet again years later. Thanks to the lost handkerchief, she wrote a poem about it while she was in Japan. Saeyoon did not know that Jaehyun rejected all of the girls' confessions just for her until they start dating in late 2020.
Yujia knows Winwin (NCT/WayV) even before their idol journey as her parents and his parents are close plus they went to same school (and same course). They could be a cute couple (according to fans) but Yujia only sees him as her older brother figure. Both of them were ~~pestered~~ scouted by SM Entertainment but Yujia decided not to join because of her current agency & unnies' warning about them. While studying & training in Korea, she lives with Chloe in a share house before moving to a dorm with the rest of SeuBim
Ryuna & Kun already met predebut because Ryuna was a part-time singer in a bar & restaurant in Seoul (to pay for her trainee fees and experience) then Kun was eating with his friends. Kun was about to give Ryuna his number but his friends stopped him because it's getting late. Years later, they meet again this time as successful idols (& after few more challenges, they are now inseparable)
Star Beam used to practice in their boss's house since they can't afford a decent dance practice room until late 2018 where they move to a bigger building
Hyoshin got to meet Jeonah & Chaehee in one of school trips in 2011. Then they meet again in the same company this time with Chloe. The 96 Liners became fast friends
Hyoshin is the only pure Korean member in their friendship circle with Chloe (Korean-American), Emilia Park (Korean-British), Xiaojun (Chinese), Hendery (Macanese) & Lucas (Chinese-Thai). She is also the shortest
Saeyoon is not close with the infamous 97 Line GC though she is very close with Jaehyun
Before her debut, Ryuna have a cameo in the 2012 K-Drama, "Shut Up Flower Boy Band"
Most of the girls are right handed except Ryuna & Jeonah. Yujia is ambidextrous
Chaehee usually does home and car repairs at the dorm hence the nickname, "Handy Chaengie" (from the children's show, "Handy Manny"). While repairing their van, Chaehee was being cursed by a man because it's "unladylike" but Chaehee clapped back, "At least I can make a decent living out of it unlike you who keeps on spending money on illegal activities".
SeuBim is quite good in self defense
SeuBim are still in touch with their non-showbiz friends (who are now working adults too) and visits them from time to time. But in case of the foreign line, through FaceTime & Zoom parties
Saeyoon can easily digest the lyrics while the rest needs paper to memorize
The subjects that Star Beam excels in: SooHyo = Math, JeonJia = Science (Yujia is quite good in Arts), Ryuna = History, Chaehee = PE & Math, Saeyoon = Arts
Yujia can draw a straight line without ruler
Star Beam wanted to be known as "one of the greatest girl groups in the world" despite every hardship and setback they have since predebut
