Seventeen Members as Demigods

won-to-the-woo:

Disclaimer: this is based on my personal knowledge of Greek gods and is very heavily influenced by the Percy Jackson series. also there is a greater focus on the personality aspect rather than the deity’s actual powers. lastly this is ridiculously detailed and I am terribly sorry about that (insp)

Seungcheol [S.Coups] - Son of Poseidon, God of the Seas and Earthquakes. As leader, Seungcheol displays many traits of the Earthshaker. Level-headed and serious at times, he takes charge well without letting the responsibility get to his head. He is able to change moods to fit the situation well, just like how the ocean has many faces. He is also a more laid-back leader, differentiating him from Zeus’s children who tend to be more headstrong and earnest.

Jeonghan - Son of Aphrodite, Goddess of Beauty and Love. With his flowing locks and chiseled features, Jeonghan is the perfect child of this goddess. His beauty attracts many first time fans of Seventeen, and one shy smile from this boy causes all the fans to swoon. He was able to gain the attention of the entire fandom just by dying his hair blond, showcasing the popularity typically characteristic of Aphrodite’s children. 

Jisoo [Joshua] - Son of Hestia, Goddess of the Hearth. Jisoo is quiet and speaks little, but when he does speak he has important words to say. Like his mother, Jisoo is down-to-earth and a good listener, knowing when to yield and when to push for his ideas. Just like the hearth that is the signature of his godly parent, Jisoo exudes warmth and care for the other members. 

Junhui [Jun] - Son of Eros, God of Attraction. Junhui’s beauty is exalted repeatedly by not only his fans, but also those who do not even know Seventeen’s name. Often clinging to his fellow group members, Junhui not only attracts people to him, but is strongly attracted to the companionship of others. In the footsteps of his godly father, one glance from Junhui is like an arrow of love that captures your heart. 

Soonyoung [Hoshi] - Son of Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and Battle. Soonyoung always knows what he needs to do, and he accomplishes it with speed and efficiency. As choreographer of Seventeen, he repeatedly displays his creativity and wit with his unique performances and dance numbers. Aside from being wise like his mother, Soonyoung also knows precisely when a joke is needed to lighten the atmosphere, strategically playing the mood to the advantage of the entire group.

Wonwoo - Son of Hades, God of the Underworld and Wealth. At first glance, Wonwoo is cold and unemotional, his unforgiving expressions handsome but unapproachable. However, he has a soft side for the person he cares about and he reveals his nonchalant and almost happy facet to the people closest to him. 

Jihoon [Woozi] - Son of Nemesis, Goddess of Revenge. Jihoon always keeps track of those who have wronged him, and exacts his vengeance accordingly. He calls out those who offend him, and praises those who please him, setting up a neat equilibrium. His pink hair and height give him a deceptively cute appearance that balances out his fierce and aggressive personality. 

Seokmin [DK] - Son of Demeter, Goddess of Agriculture. Seokmin’s smile is so bright, it can make grass grow. His friendly personality and affectionate manner are perfect for encouraging young shoots to break the surface of the Earth, making him Seventeen’s best nurturer. Like his mother, he cares very much for those that are important to him, and will go to the ends of the Earth to help his loved ones. 

Mingyu - Son of Zephyrus, the God of the West Wind. Gentle and beneficial, Zephyrus is the most beloved of the four Cardinal winds, and he passes on his kind disposition to his son, Mingyu, who is always cheerful and warmhearted. Commonly compared to a puppy, he is always eager to please. He is also very likeable due to his modest personality and carefree attitude.

Minghao [The8] - Son of Ares, God of War. Minghao can blow the audience away with his bboy-ing skills, and his knowledge of martial arts is a remnant of his father’s legacy. Although he may seem like a pushover, he is not afraid to tell someone to shut up, even if they are a few years older. Similarly to his father, Minghao is a sucker for those he cares about, and he won’t hesitate to take care of them. 

Seungkwan - Son of Dionysus, God of Wine and Partying. Seungkwan is almost always enthusiastic and lively, and the go-to MC for Seventeen’s videos. One could even call him the ‘life of the party.’ However, he has his emotional and serious side, and knows when to tone it down. Tactful and self-conscious, Seungkwan takes well after his godly father.

Hansol [Vernon] - Son of Apollo, God of Lyricists and Music. With his powerful rapping and clever lyrics, Hansol dutifully follows his father’s chosen path. Like Apollo, he has a well-known interest in singing and a natural feel for rhythm. He has an obvious talent in music and he proves time and again that he can do well in the entertainment industry. 

Chan [Dino] - Son of Hermes, God of Tricksters and Travelers. Being the youngest member of the group, Chan has a lot of undiscovered potential and does a bit of everything in the group, just like his jack-of-all-trades father. Chan is also quite mature and is intelligent for his age, but his positive aspects are belied by his youthful appearance, causing others to underestimate his skill. This may lead to people being unexpectedly impressed by his wide arsenal of abilities.
