idol au character rundown

so if you havent heard, @mooksmookin created an amazing idol au which they allowed me to write! (you can see their explanation here!) so i thought it was about time to introduce the characters to the au!!! without further ado, here are the stars of the show~

Oikawa Tooru

the leader and main vocalist of the famous boy group seij-OH!

signed to the company HQ entertainment at 13, oikawa grew up as a child actor and singing in musicals, deciding that singing and producing was what he wanted to pursue.

widely regarded as the group’s prettiest member and a visual, oikawa is sought after for modelling, promotions, and acting. however, oikawa turns each opportunity down unless the other members accompany him.

Iwaizumi Hajime

rapper and supporting vocalist for the group seij-OH! with a voice rough, sensual and honey sweet.

signed around the same time as oikawa, his childhood friend. iwaizumi always supported oikawa, but made a point of asserting himself and chasing after the goal of making music.

can play guitar, and often writes the guitar licks, bass lines, and chord progressions for the music. the fans die whenever he plays guitar, and frankly, die whenever they get to see his biceps.

Matsukawa Issei

lead rapper of the group seij-OH!

was signed at the age of fourteen after repeatedly sending demo tracks of his garageband music to HQ.

the fans know him as “the bad boy with a soft heart,” which earns snickers and laughs from the other members. really doesn't give a shit about PR and often speaks his mind and doesn't tone down his sarcastic and lewd humour.

Hanamaki Takahiro

lead dancer and supporting vocalist of the group seij-OH! choreographs all of seij-OH’s dances

has been studying dance since age six, taking different styles including, but not limited to: jazz, contemporary, modern, several types of ballet, lyrical, tap, and hiphop. was signed to HQ at age twelve but only started training to become an idol at age fourteen.

he and Matsukawa met as trainees when Hanamaki was asked to fix his dancing form. they’ve been inseparable ever since, and have been informally announced to be dating.

Hinata Shouyou

at 20 years old, he’s confused as to where his life is going until he meets his idols, the legendary boyband seij-OH and creates a friendship with the members. his life spirals from fanboy to friend, and with it, romantic~ feelings begin to form

through his best friend kenma’s short film, hinata lands a modelling job via Kuroo Tetsurou Models, skyrocketing his own fame and earning him his own chance at the limelight

Kozume Kenma

21 years old, and Hinata’s best friend. they met in high school through the internet, and eventually ended up living together when they moved to kyoto for university.

a film major and filmmaker, creating haunting, creepy, and visually stunning short films. has a decent presence in the indie filmmaker community, but struggles to find actors within his price range

Kuroo Tetsurou

a 22 year old acting/modelling agent, who was born into the modelling scene quite literally, with famous parents. never having sought out stardom himself, kuroo prefers to pull at the strings and makes his living making other people famous.

he was contacted by kenma, looking for actors, but they couldn't work out a deal. later, kuroo goes to a film festival where kenma is featured and watches his film, taking special interest in the lead actor used- none other than hinata shouyou himself. it takes a little persuading, but he’s able to sign hinata and whisk him away to a career where he naturally excels .

kenma is stubborn and tries to ignore kuroo. it doesnt always work

anyways i love this au so so much it has so many shennanigans and so much angst !!! pls feel free to message me or mooks with questions about it and i promise to have the first chapter up soon ~

supporting characters under the cut!!!!!!

kiyoko shimizu and yachi hitoka: seij-OH’s manager and publicist, respectably

kageyama tobio: hinata’s newfound modelling friend, signed with kuroo. they pretend to have a rivalry but always get paired together

sugawara koushi: another model under kuroo, takes it upon themselves to show hinata the reins. non-binary!

watari and kyoutani: seij-OH’s body guards. kyoutani may or may not pretend to hate his job, but secretly owns Iwaizumi’s merch. tell no one.

yahaba, kindaichi, and kunimi: the seij-OH stylists! yahaba is in charge, handles clothing and outfits. kindaichi does hair, and kunimi does makeup. oikawa likes doing his own makeup, but yahaba fights him every time.

daishou suguru: the son of HQ’s CEO and heir to the company. has beef with kuroo for some reason, most idols find him infuriating.

bokuto koutarou: one of kuroo’s most famous actors! he seems like a hassle but gets way into the zone in front of the camera.
