PERSONALITY | As a Gemini, Phoebe is naturally chatty. However, not only does she like to talk all the time, but she also loves to be updated about the latest on-goings around her. It frustrates her to no end when people know more than she does, so she makes it a point to know everything about everyone, making her the top source for juicy news and gossip. She is generally friendly and may keep your secret, but if you cross her, don't expect those secrets to stay hidden. Though she is like this, she prefers her information to be true and not just conspiracies developed by some commoner. She likes her gossip reliable.

Phoebe likes to be involved. No scandals happen without her in it; she almost always has something to do with it. She can also be a bit
competitive, though her desire to win is short-lived. When she realizes that someone is better than her, she just accepts that and doesn't push further. She's only driven when it comes to getting her hands on the latest 411, which she sometimes uses to blackmail people into getting what she wants.

She has no trouble expressing herself, so sometimes mini-beefs between the members arise because of her blunt comments. Though she finds talking easy, Phoebe struggles when it comes to opening up emotionally. She doesn't like telling anyone personal about herself because she fears they'll sell it to a news outlet of some sort.

BACKGROUND | Phoebe has a Korean mother and an American father. She is a middle child, born between Grace, the older sister, and Zoe, the younger one. She doesn't get along with either of them, especially when she announced that one dinner that she was going to leave them to become an idol. Her mother was okay with it, her father didn't say anything, but her older sister cut any ties Phoebe had with her after that. She lived in Chicago for most of her life until she auditioned for JYP Entertainment as a dancer four years ago and came to Korea alone. Before JYP, Phoebe was already a part of a local dance crew with her friends in Chicago and was known for her popping skills. Because of her perfect American accent, she was also assigned the rapper title. She had a little above average grades in high school.

OFF AND ON STAGE PERSONA | Phoebe is on her best behavior on camera most of the time. She doesn't try to hide her nosiness, though, but when she shows it, it's more of a toned-down version. It's something that the fans are already used to seeing, like whenever people are talking about something she always butts in and demands to know what they are talking about. Phoebe is the same off-stage, if not more.
PERSONAL GREETING | "Treading lightly like a kitten, I'll surprise you with my charm! I'm Phoebe!"
