This is some delusional comment I have read for a while.

So you refute “a stupid take” by making the same stupid take? You deny Starship used Izone’s popularity for ive but then go around saying HYBE is doing it for lesserafim? Seriously ive fans on akp just say whatever at this point.

Look at the searches , garam Sakura and Kim chaewon are more popular than kazuha. There is a gap, too much mediaplay on kazuha by Hybe pushing her visual because she hit viral gif hee debut showcase in making people think she’s the most popular in Korea but a recent Popularity poll by the biggest female community in Korea showed that Sakura and chaewon are the most known members. Her and yunjin had the same% in popularity ranking.

Because of Izone . You think Wonyoung and Yujin couldve hardcarried Ive without all the coverage they got under Izone including Produce? lol no, Izone walked so your faves could run. Just be grateful.

Ok. Let's pretend IVE's success is thanks to Izone. At this point, it doesnt matter. IVE already surpassed Izone in every aspect and other IVE members are standing out by going viral or starting trends. Even Wonyoung herself benefitted from IVE's popularity and doubled her ig followers since IVE's debut. So stop trying to attach IVE's success to Izone would ya, it's getting embarrassing when IVE already dwarfed Izone from debut.
