Did Mnet just call Somi a legend?

Somi was the main host on day 1 of the MAMA awards.

Musician/idol hosts for the main show are rare and they have always been legends:

2003 - Sung Yu-ri (Fin.K.L.)

2008 - Rain

2009 - Tiger JK

2015 - Psy

2021 - Lee Hyori

2022 - Somi

Is this a prediction of Somi's future, or do they already consider her a legend?

Quote from Help1

I dunno she could have been willing to go to Japan, or could she be known in Japan

Somi is internationally famous, of course, but she is not especially popular in Japan.

Quote from Michael-6

both
prediction of Somi's future and already possibly consider her a legend
first-place winner
of the survival reality show Produce 101
and a member of GG I.O.I

also her visual and stage presence is among the best in KPOP

Quote from KwangyaPresident

somi resurrected center position and paved the way for all produce trainees. she's a legend already imo

Somi has a lot of firsts and major accomplishments, but she is way younger than everyone else who hosted, except Sung Yu-ri, but that was 19 years ago when MAMA wasn't as established. Generally age and career length is a factor when considering if someone is a "legend".
