yifan - i think he's a very mature and capable man that has carefully laid out plans for everythinh. all well meaning, but it doesn't always go his way. yifan is an opportunist and a naturally born socializer. he knows how to build the right connections and wins hearts all by being genuine and nice and maybe with a little flattery. and i think... that sometimes when he's alone, he wonders if this flashy wu yifan is truly him or someone he constructed and molded into the perfect being?

lu han - lu han's just a bit lost. my headcanon is that he really has no foresight and took a misstep into the ent industry because it seemed like a good idea then but fuck, he's stuck. and he's not too keen on being a star but it's all he knows so he's content being packaged, instructed, shuttled from place to place, movie to endorsement, as long as he gets a little quiet space. he's probably someone who opens up to only a select few people and in his free time just lies around dozing off.

yixing - yixing's a smart one. i think he's almost like chanyeol, cunning in the sense that he knows how to play the crowd, knows exactly what image to best portray to come across as likable. but he also sticks to his principles and stands up for what he thinks is right, so he's still so humble and a sweetheart. but sometimes those principles get in the way of the right thing to do.

tao: child. tao is easily swayed by other people's words and he's emotionally vunerable. heart on his sleeve, reacts before he thinks, emotions over logic etc. but he reflects on things a lot and overthinks everything. once again, he's emotionally charged so he can be persuaded into a lot of things- flashy cars, temptations, freedom...
