Ibuki was born to a japanese mother and a korean father. Her father used to travel a lot for work and during one of his business trips he met Ibuki's mother and everything there was like a fairytale relationship. Once Ibuki was born, she earned the nickname "Cherry Ivy" because she was born with rosey cheeks and growing up the nick name just stayed. Around the time Ibuki was 2, her sister was born and her peace and quiet was now over. Her and her sister would always fight but in the end would make up. She hated going to school with her sister but when her sister became a target of bullying, she would fight her sister's bullies every time she saw them picking at her. Because of this, she was known to be a "Bad" girl and became infamous for it. In reality, Ibuki was a sweetheart but she would do anything for her sister. She hated bullies and she would jump in to save anyone that was being bullied.
When she got into highschool, she got into music and enrolled in music classes. As she began to sing more and more, her talent began to show. Her friends used to watch famous kpop groups perform on their phones before class and when she would watch with them, she noticed how well they danced. The more she watched, the more fascinated she got into dancing. It didn'tt ake long for her to get amazingly good at it, almost as if she had natural talent. Around this time she met her best friend, Mint, who later on becomes a kpop idol in her kpop group as well. As their friendship blossomed, so did their dreams to become idols like their kpop biases. During their senior year of highschool, the two girls vouched to become kpop stars together, something that was nearly impossible. However, they did it. They auditioned to Stellar Entertainment and trained for a few years before they both debuted in the same group, MARIONETTE, out of sheer luck.
