Personality —
Rio is the first person to crack a joke to diffuse serious situations. Despite his playful demeanor, he's a capable and well-rounded person who's able to read the room and act diplomatically between separate factions, which makes him a useful tool for management. Personally, Rio can be emotionally distant and selective with who he opens up to, but once someone is in his inner circle, he's relentlessly loyal and protective. By habit, he's a workaholic and will spend his free time bettering himself by studying or absorbing lectures, so he really needs to be around other people to really feel as if he's relaxing, whether it's by playing sports, watching movies, or skating. 
Background —
James Gangbin Yeo was born in New York, NY, and raised in New Jersey. He personally always claims to be from New York, when in actuality, he was raised in New Jersey, the hospital he was born in just happened to be in New York. Growing up, James was always a high achiever, skipping 4th grade and graduating high school at 17 with as many college credits as he was legally able to take. For college, he decided to study abroad in Korea and it was there where he decided to audition for Nova Lux and become a trainee. James graduated with a bachelor's degree in business administration the same year he debuted with X.Chaos, which was cool because if he didn't debut, he would have looked into industry jobs where he could utilize his degree. 
Relationships —
Family | James has a very respectful relationship with his family. He's very private, especially when it comes to his emotions, but he regularly contacts his family and shares accomplishments with them. He enjoys the distance from his family since he prefers his independence. All this in mind, he maintains a playful dynamic with his family. 
Group Members | To s, Rio is playful and reliable, able to diffuse situations with humor when mediating. He's selective with who he builds deep bonds with, but keeps an overall good relationship with all s. 
Management | James maintains a professional and respectful dynamic with management. He sets his boundaries with management while maintaining a positive relationship with his wit and charm. 
Industry | James can be guarded against others in the industry, but he maintains a friendly demeanor. He can often be seen testing the waters with jokes just to see how friendly he can be with others in the industry. His extroverted nature casts him a wide network and he keeps in contact with those with similar interests as him, but, as always, he's very selective with those he gets close to. 
Close Friends | Gangbin's close friends accumulate from those with similar interests as him, such as: sports, film, working out, and learning. Those he's opened up to and call his close friends have his complete loyalty and he's incredibly protective and defensive over them.
Romance | Honestly, James likes his independence in all relationships. He enjoys freedom and growth and his workaholic tendancies will always put work first, himself second, and when it comes to opening up to others, he finds it difficult to be vulnerable at all. Nevertheless, when it comes to romance, he enjoys someone who can level with him intellectually and challenge him to be a better person. 
Fans | He maintains a friendly and professional relationship with his fans as he would with any other coworker. He protects his boundaries by deflecting with humor and goes the extra mile to thank his fans for respecting his boundaries and privacy to keep them in line before they can cross those boundaries. 
Appearance —
Hair | Naturally black, but the color and style changes with each concept. He usually keeps the length over his eyebrows with the sides tapered. Casually, he just wears a hat so he doesn't need to deal with his hair. 
Eyes | Dark Brown, demi eyelids. 
Height | 174 cm
Weight | 60 kg
Fashion | Streetwear, athleisure, and the basics. He wears name brand skate shoes and relaxed fit jeans with baseball caps and beanies. He wears really nice hoodies that keep going missing. 
Fragrance | He smells like woody deodarant and Old Spice. He's not picky about scents as long as it smells clean, he sort of just wears whatever scents are gifted to him because everybody was tired of his Axe wearing (which is why he changed to Old Spice, but everybody was like bruh you can do better). 
Quirks & Habits —
Rio habitually creates nicknames for people based on observations. It's usually a mental thing that he uses to tie in observations to a person, but sometimes he accidentally blurts out the nickname instead. This happens more often with friends, where he'll call out his buddies like, "Okay, cardigan," or "Let's go, slumped shoulders." 

He's surprisingly clean and dislikes his stuff being touched or borrowed without permission. He's quick to set his boundaries and find practical solutions to his pet peeves and will *coughs* manipulate if needed, but it's not manipulation if it's a strategic solution, okay? 

He's quick to notice disharmony and unsychronized formations and will fix any misalignments in the moment so they don't move forward with mistakes. Teamwork and synergy are the most important things to him as someone who spent a majority of his life playing sports.  
Likes & Dislikes —
Likes | baseball, movies, skateboarding, working out, strategy games, sports, hangouts with friends, learning new skills, thrillers

Dislikes | attention seekers, fake personalities, crossing boundaries, invasive questions, gossip, lack of effort, breaking commitments, emotional manipulation, unprofessional behavior, mixed messages, poor communication, inconsistency

OOC —
About Me | Hi, my username is freckle! You can just address me as freckle. Those who do not know me personally may refer to me by they/them pronouns. I am 25+ years old and prefer not to roleplay with anybody under 22.  
Preferences | Before jumping into writing, I like to plot with my writing partners, not only to understand each other's characters and our story together, but to get to know my writing partners as well. It's important to me that my writing partners are aware of my boundaries, time constraints, and priorities and vice versa in order to maintain an amicable collaboration. 
In terms of writing, I prefer third pov para. I'm very flexible with my writing preferences, but I do ask for my writing partners to not only read and digest what I've written for them, but to also give me content that I can reply back to. This is not an issue I come across often, but I have come across writers who have completely ignored my writing, godmod the situation, and given me no room to continue the scene in character and I wish to not have to go through this again. If you have any trouble understanding the content of my writing or need some clarity, I am always available to clear things up even if you have to double or triple text me about it. 
In terms of genre, I love anything from sweet and wholesome fluff to plates crashing against the wall angst, but the most important element to me is consent. I do not want to unknowingly walk into an angsty situation nor do I want to find myself cornered into fluff with someone who I did not have a prior discussion with. Please DM me if you want to discuss something. 

Availability | I will try to drop in to touch base at least once a week with all of my writing partners. Please do not expect instant replies from me. I am a working adult. Even if my replies may take a while, I'll continue to keep you updated with a timeline so you know that I haven't forgotten about our thread.
