⠀⠀★ ۫ ⠀⠀ TATIANA WON'S PERSONAL STYLING / ゛tatiana has always preferred to dress casually, especially when she got more into music, and spent most of her time in her bed making music on her laptop. with the pressures of paparazzi and publicity, tati's style has upgraded a little bit from just soccor jerseys and sweatpants (although the jerseys are still making appearances in lives). now her style mostly consists of black and red, with some pink and white thrown in there depending on her mood. one thing about tati, she hates committing to a sleeve, so bandeau and tank tops are a staple. another tati staple is her black leather jacket collection, a length for every occasion. her go-to accessories are always either a chunky black boot or a colourful small flat to ground her a bit. she also regularly wears her glasses. her other staples, are her bangs, and although the hair has seen many different dyes in it's lifetime, the bangs always stay. finally, tatiana has been tatted and hiding them since her debut, and has fifteen tattoos as of now, which include clouds on her shoulder, and a representative tattoo for all of the no variety members.
FOUR ACES, FOUR SUITS, ONE HOUSE OF CARDS. ✶ individual member profiles.
⟢ PARK AHYEON ⇆ 박아연
✶ stage name : ahyeon
✶ position : main dancer, lead vocals, face of the group
✶ date of birth : august eighth nineteen ninety-eight ( 080898 )
✶ place of birth : busan, south korea
✶ zodiac : tiger / leo
✶ face claim : lee saerom ( fromis_9 )
THE OLDEST OF THREE, AHYEON’s life can only be described as the furthest thing from normal. born to a schoolteacher and an unpromising actor, the pressure to make it big had been instilled within her from a young age. bless her mother’s heart, she tried to provide her daughters with some semblance of normalcy, framing their spelling bees and showing up to their after school shows. but it all came to an abrupt end when her father was found cheating in their home, drunk out of his mind. the divorce was hard on all of them, but her mother got all three of them out.
free from the burden of her father’s dreams, ahyeon begins her journey towards music at sixteen years old as a member of a local girl group named XTRA in 2014. the group doesn’t make it past public performance and youtube covers, but even after the group’s eventually falling out, she signs with KQ in 2018 in hopes of achieving her dream to be on stage.
⟢ HEO MICHA ⇆ 허미차
✶ stage name : micha
✶ position : leader, main vocals, lead dancer
✶ date of birth : april twenty-fourth two thousand ( 042400 )
✶ place of birth : ███, south korea
✶ zodiac : dragon / taurus
✶ face claim : heo micha ( everglow )
MOST OF HER BACKGROUND UNKNOWN TO THE PUBLIC, MICHA is an enigma to both netizens and her company alike. signing to KQ in 2020, she passed auditions with flying colors, earning her a reputation amongst the trainees. its often joked that she’s a literal industry plant—appearing randomly amongst the scene with amazing vocals, alluring stage presence, and a piercing stare, crowning her the nickname of KQ’s MONSTER ROOKIE.
when asked why she competed on HOUSE OF CARDS, she simply said it’s because the company asked her to. outwardly she shows no interest for anything other than performing, attracting accusations of all kinds from favoritism to blatant ungratefulness.
⟢ ITO YUINA ⇆ 伊東ゆいな / 이토유이나
✶ stage name : yuina
✶ position : main rapper, sub vocals, center
✶ date of birth : december twelfth two thousand ( 121200 )
✶ place of birth : kyoto, japan
✶ zodiac : dragon / sagittarius
✶ face claim : fukutomi tsuki ( billlie )
MUSIC WAS NOT SOMETHING YUINA had in mind originally. studying abroad in korea was a one way ticket to more cultural experiences, and it would have looked good on her resume. but her host family’s son invited her out to a karaoke bar to loosen up, put a mic on her hand, and altered the course of her life entirely. studying korean first through music, yuina would find her voice through meticulous lyricism and a newfound passion for the genre of music. and with her host family’s support, she would audition as a trainee of pledis entertainment in 2016.
joining HOUSE OF CARDS opened her eyes to so much more than her rapping. to this day, her host family is one of her major supporters, especially after breaking the news to her family that she wouldn’t be pursuing a career in law much to their disappointment.
⟢ AHN EUNJI ⇆ 안은지
✶ stage name : eunji
✶ position : lead dancer, lead rapper, maknae
✶ date of birth : january twenty-first two thousand one ( 012101 )
✶ place of birth : gangnam, south korea
✶ zodiac sign : snake / sagittarius
✶ face claim : an yujin
THE AUDITION WAS A LAST RESORT. debuting was a do or die for EUNJI, determined to prove to her mother that her interest wasn’t a waste of time and that singing wouldn’t lead her to a place of financial insecurity. money was the only thing her mother cared about anyway, manifested through harsh criticism and ill placed anger. her placement on HOUSE OF CARDS wasn’t even made aware to her until eunji came home with the news that she’d be moving out, putting on a brave face in front of the cruel words spat back to her in return.
despite sending back some of the money she earns as an idol, she’s still considered a major disappointment to anyone who came across her mother’s path. now eunji doesn’t know what’s worse—cutting her off and risking maternal wrath or losing the last of her family in choosing herself over her. she supposes her mother couldn’t be blamed. she never was the same when her father passed away.

FORMER MEMBERS OF LOVE CLUB — AND WHERE THEY ARE NOW.
SAKAI RYOKO
sakai ryoko was formerly love club’s main rapper. she departed from the group in may 2020, due to ‘creative differences’ — but that was only part of the truth. before love club, ryoko was a soundcloud rapper under the name ‘KOKO’ — and she had a large following. she produced her own music and she wrote all of her lyrics. she uploaded new songs weekly, but when love club was getting ready to debut, lucky love entertainment deleted her account.
after that, ryoko could only produce for her own pleasure. she would submit songs for the group before each comeback, but all of her songs were denied. the company refused to listen to her work and refused to accept it — even if it fit the group’s concept. ryoko was fed up with this behavior — but it wasn’t the only reason why she left the group and the agency.
eunbi — the groups leader — would constantly bully and scrutinized ryoko, everyday to no end. eunbi had degraded ryoko infront of her members and her friends, and even hooked up with her girlfriend purposefully, sending a picture of them together to ryoko. eunbi wanted to see ryoko break — and she did everything in her power to see it happen. ryoko wanted to stay strong and not let eunbi get to her, but when eunbi started to tell lies about her to the agency and her members to turn them against her, ryoko had enough. she could no longer take the abuse, and terminated her contract with lucky love.
a month after leaving lucky love entertainment, ryoko signed with high up entertainment — and was rumored to be apart of their upcoming girl group. ryoko was out of the public eye until september 2020, when she uploaded a cover of jam & butterfly by DPR LIVE on Highup Girls youtube channel. ryoko later made her debut in STAYC in november 2020 as the groups main rapper, co-leader and producer. ryoko had produced and written numerous songs of STAYC, such as SO BAD, ASAP, LOVE FOOL, STEREOTYPE, ILL BE THERE, RUN2U and more.
JEONG EUNBI
jeong eunbi was formerly love club’s main vocalist and leader. eunbi departed from in the group in september 2021 after she was exposed for bullying her members — and the company never confrimed nor denied the rumors. eunbi never uploaded an apology, and disappeared from the public eye. many people speculate that eunbi moved back to australia, while others believe that eunbi is still in south korea, planning to comeback.
after leaving the group, eunbi had stayed in south korea for a few months, before moving to south carolina — going to university to study marketing. eunbi does not plan to return to the public eye, and plans to work a 9-5 job in an office — completely starting over. she legally changed her name to rosette lee shortly after moving to the united states — and has no contact with any of the members of love club. no one has heard from her, not even her family. she started her entire life over.
after eunbi graduates, she will get married to a businessman, daniel park, and will have three children, two girls, amelia and grace, and one boy, noah. only daniel knows of her private life — and eunbi plans to keep it that way.
PARK MIYEON
park miyeon was love club’s former main vocalist and visual. miyeon also departed from the group in september 2021, due to being caught up in a dating scandal with her former manager, dowoon. miyeon and dowoon had got caught dating eachother in 2019, but both parties claimed that they were no longer dating. in 2021, an anonymous twitter account exposed miyeon and dowoon for lying about their relationship — and proved that they were still dating until january 2021 with screenshots of their conversations, and pictures taken of them in the streets.
after leaving love club, miyeon disappeared from the public eye until january 2022. in january it was announced that miyeon had signed with nomoo actors — and with the help of the company — she published a hand-written letter explaining her departure from the group and her relationship with her former manager. she had revealed that she wanted to come public about her relationship with dowoon, but the company silenced her. she also apologized to fans of love club and the members of love club publicly, writing a personal apology to the current members of love club, including yerin and ryoko. the majority of people supporting love club had forgiven miyeon — and continued to support her, but miyeon still faces hate daily.
miyeon landed her first acting role in march 2022, with the historical kdrama, alchemy of souls. she plays jin choyeon — the most popular girl in daeho and the youngest daughter of the Jin family. she has received praise for her performance as the character, and is rumored to join upcoming dramas!
MOON YERIN
moon yerin was love club’s former main vocalist and lead dancer. yerin left the group in january 2022 due to mental and physical concerns. throughout her career, yerin had mentioned that she had suffered with mental illnesses and back pain — but the company never officially commented on it. most assumed that the company didn’t want yerin to talk about it — and yerin confirmed this rumor when she uploaded a youtube video in april of 2022, exposing lucky love entertainment of all the mistreatment they put her and the girls through. once again, lucky love entertainment didnt comment on the video.

─── ⠀ * ⠀ ❪ NO VARIETY is a fictional girl group, based in south korea. the group was formed on the first season of ENTVISS’ THE SUNDOWN SHOW which would debut a five-member girl group under SOLARIA GARDENS. as of 2013, the group originally consisted of JAENA, TATIANA, PEARL, NARAE and HARUNA and they had a dream/nightmare concept. in 2014, CELENE, former backup dancer and PRIN, a model were added to the lineup after being runnerups on mystery box, which shifted the concept to the seven deadly sins. after record breaking performances in south korea and japan, and re-popularizing solaria’s company lore, new york popstar, ANASTASIA was added to the group in 2015 which stirred controversy becaue she wasn’t korean. however, over the next year, no variety’s relevancy in south korea lessened yet became sensations in north america. the group’s controversies continued when DAVINA, the sister of OPERATIC’s leader debuted in the gorup alongside YUA NIIKURA, who was olympic medalist figure skater and youtube cover artist.
despite their music continuously topping charts globally, and their personal content raking in views, no variety’s reputation went from korea’s sweethearts to undeserving recklooses almost overnight, a reputation propagated by their own manager– who invoked a year long lawsuit against the girls in 2020.

HIJINXX’s percussion driven first digital single, the song encourages the listener to avoid unhealthy relationships and know their own worth, letting them showcase their confidence and true talents. dropping officially on streaming platforms june 14th, 2021, MASCARA centers around an electronic hip-hop and dance-pop trap beat that creates a dynamic, upbeat pop song.
a formidable hit that made waves for all the wrong reasons domestically, MASCARA had the opposite effect internationally. nevertheless, HIJINXX would get the chance to perform the song on mnet’s m countdown, sparking the discourse surrounding their name. the official music video for MASCARA received 2.6 million views within the first week, highlighting how HIJINXX are quickly making their own statement around the world no matter what.

wooo hijinxx first single! debut into the industry with fire and passion, this is what we like to see!
except comma,
the public reception to the single being mostly in english was genuine surprise. it’s not unheard of having english lyrics in k-pop songs, but the entire song? as a debut single? for a new group trying to find their own footing? yeah korean netizens were not having it at all. on a forum asking what people thought about the song, the top liked negative comment read: they should all move to america since they want to sing songs with no korean lyrics. they shouldn’t even call themselves a ‘korean pop’ group.
many were quick to come to the girls’ defenses though, saying that the song was meant to reach a wider audience since the survival show didn’t do as well as hoped. ratings for the show had tanked following the accusations of rigging and favoritism, so it wasn’t a long shot for the group to debut with such a song to appeal to a wider audience.
now on to the girls! yuina became a quick fan favorite with her expressions and stage presence, surprising viewers with her strong dance skills. it was then revealed that she spent many hours practicing the choreography over and over, sometimes well into the morning, even falling asleep in the practice rooms out of sheer exhaustion. hearing this, coupled with some tidbits of her life that she had revealed on the survival show, warmed her up to the public very quickly. her short rap in the song would also gain a bit of praise, especially for her lack of vocal wavering despite giving one hundred percent during performance.
despite this, kq would receive a lot of criticism for debuting the girls with ‘simple choreo’, the general consensus being that ( save for yuina who was really busting her ass on stage every time ) the other three girls would ‘walk instead of dance’ into each position.
micha received a ton of attention, some good, most of it bad. the main sore spot was that, as the main vocalist, she was given the most lines, but netizens would go on to complain that the company was favoring her through an unfair line distribution. hate comments would be left underneath the videos uploaded for the performances. she’s lucky she’s pretty, one commenter would write, otherwise i would really hate to hear the sound of her voice. when she dances she looks like she’s being electrocuted and it’s not like she tries to be likable.
eunji would go semi-viral for blankly staring at the screen during group introductions, the nerves getting to her so bad she would default to a semi panicked look. screenshots of the moments would go viral to be used as a reaction meme despite most not knowing where the pictures originated from.
mascara would be promoted for a month and a half, long enough for public performances / more busking, few idol interactions, and dance challenges—especially with their senior group, ateez. the ‘mascara challenge’ with yuina, wooyoung, and san would especially go viral due to atinys flooding the comments with love and poking fun at the notable height difference between san and yuina.
mascara did not gain any wins, but it would go on to chart and peak at number 87 on the billboard hot 100, marking their first entry on to a chart.
soon after the music video for mascara dropped, hijinxx would release a four episode behind the scenes series of filming, practices, and more for each member titled to their respective suit. ( ex : micha’s episode would be titled ‘HIJINXX - ‘MASCARA’ BTS : DIAMOND SUIT’ )
even though there wasn’t much to say about ahyeon’s performance, she would gain more traction for her persona off stage. atinys and aces would bond over hongjoong and ahyeon’s friendship, the bits and pieces of the two featured in her mascara bts episode showcasing just how close they were. considering she’s the one who actively pursued their friendship, their moments were received fondly as the two truly seemed comfortable together. the recording process especially showcased this, featuring a now infamous moment of the two poking fun at each other in the studio. one atiny would post on twitter, ‘new drinking game : take a shot each time ahyeon says ‘joong-ah!’ every time he acts like a little shit LMAOOO 😭 i love them together <3’, the tweet amassing enough attention for even the ateez members themselves to pick up on the teasing.
VANITY’s Hannie is Confirmed to be a Host on “SHOOTING STAR”
SHOOTING STARS is a survival show for idols who have already reached debut. The show plans to have a seven episode run, resulting in a 6 membered project group.
Many have mixed emotions due to this news.
Fans of the idol worry for her mental health on being a host of a show like this. With the now-known corruption and discrimination during “Girl’s Rebirth”, the show that created VANITY, fans say they have the right to be concerned.
”I’ve had many people ask if I was really willing to this, I know my past but I really do believe I do it,” Hannie stated in a recent interview.
“I’ve gotten better over the years. I would never worry Vanni if I wasn’t confident.”
Do you plan to tune in to the premiere of “SHOOTING STAR”?

FORMER MEMBER OF LOVE CLUB, MIYEON, TO STAR IN HISTORICAL DRAMA, ALCHEMY OF SOULS
posted march 21st, 2022
Baek Miyeon — a former member of the girl group, Love Club, is set to play ‘Jin Choyeon’ in the new Netflix original, Alchemy of Souls. This will be the first appearance Miyeon will make ever since her departure from Love Club in 2021, and her comeback has sparked divided and opinionated responses from netizens.
In early 2022, Miyeon had signed with ‘Namoo Actors’, and with the help of the agency, she released a hand-written statement — clearing up all the rumors that had spread about her since her departure of Love Club and her relationship with her former manager, Dowon. In the hand-written letter, Miyeon mentioned that she had not been given the chance to speak up for herself — that the company had practically kicked her out. She also shared that she had wanted to go public about her relationship and not lie about — but the company did not let her and forced her to lie.
Miyeon’s honestly and genuine apology had made some fans forgive her for her actions — while some fans still shamed her and refused to accept her apology. Despite the mixed public reaction, Nomoo Actors kept their contract with Miyeon, and she is making her acting debut this summer, with the historical drama, Alchemy of Souls. Miyeon will be acting alongside other actors such as Lee Jaewook, Jung Somin, Hwang Minhyun, and Yoon Insoo — who will be playing her love interest, Park Dang-gu.
Miyeon is very excited to make her TV debut, and shared her excitement on her new instagram page, myonbaek. She opened another instagram after deactivating her personal page in 2021 after signing with Nomoo Actors, and made her first post with a selfie with Song Kang, another actor under the agency!
