(☆) Congratulations, young person! You have displayed your talent tremendously enough for one of the largest "titan entertainment companies" in the Korean Pop-Culture Industry to notice you, and take you in under their wing as an apprentice performer. If you are diligent, talented, and skilled enough, you will rise on your own as a prominent Idol - living a life full of fame, fortune, and fans! However, even though it may seem like a desirable walk in the park, this lifestyle definitely isn't for everyone. People will be cut, and eventually fall short of their dreams. Are you cut out to be an Idol? (☆)
All Cliché introductions aside, yes, this is a Roleplay revolved around the lives of young men and women that are on the rise to becoming celebrities in the heart of Seoul, Korea. You have auditioned and been accepted as a Trainee in none other than SM Entertainment, a K-Pop Company and Record Label that is one of the most popular and successful in the industry, next to YG and JYP production labels. You'll soon see that life is not as easy and enjoyable when you are the one attempting to climb your way to success with so much competition - especially when your company isn't as angelically caring as they appear in the public eye.

Quick Rules:
◎ Please follow all 'Charms Basic RP Rules here.
◎ This goes with the "Mary-Sue" issue - you may of course have very talented characters, but no one person can be perfect and amazing at everything that they make the actual Idols look bad lol.
◎ You ARE allowed to have Idol characters that are already successful celebrities, but they must be Sub-OC's. Your main must be a Trainee of some sort in SM, but you may also have characters under other Companies, of course.
◎ The goal for all Trainees is to successfully debut in the Industry - and this can be done through aiming for fame as a SOLO or GROUP Artist. It is solely up to you which one you want. You may pair up with other roleplayers to form a duo, trio, or boy/girl/coed group, or debut on your own. Both are encouraged!
The largest limit to how many a group can have up to is 8-10 members.
~
If any roleplayers have more than one character, each can have only two OC's per person to be in the same idol group if they wish.
◎ Feel free to have competition and rivalry; that's a huge role in the essence of this RP! Even moderate harassment/teasing/degrading is permitted (if you want your character to have that approach), but keep it reasonable and non-personal. Nothing too ridiculous or flamboyant.

◎ Yes, this was made because I have recently fallen into the Korean Pop Music hole and don't know what to do about it lmao.
◎ You do not have to be a crazy KPop Fan to join, this is open to all! Many multi-cultural factors will be brought into this RP!
◎ You definitely can have your own customizable character! Meaning: Just because you are a Trainee in Korea, your ethnicity/nationality can be whatever you want, really. I mean it would probably be preferred to have some Asian in there somewhere, just for realism sake.
◎ My "Co-Owner" in this RP will @Crims0n, since he is a good friend of mine who helped consult me about the creation of this. This pretty much means that he has just as much say/authority in this RP as I do. He knows much more than I do in technical terms, so he can further the plot/control official characters and settings. (So please be respectful and kind to him, he can accept/reject your character sheets as well).
◎ Hope you enjoy! Post your character below and we will tend to it ASAP!

But then again my character only has a korean first name due to her parents; her surname being traditionally japanese.
