What went wrong with Chaeyeon?
-
Danny should be main title with MV
it would attract people to see her dancing with male dancer
and having some rom-com MV would be a hit as well

Her album is good
-
She actually did pretty great for a female soloist debut in terms of sales, so it's not like she has no support. 40k sales puts her ahead of anything Chungha has done, and puts her within striking distance of Somi and Eunbi (50-60k sales). As long as she can maintain these sales, she will have a viable and long lasting career for as long as she wants.
I was honestly scared that Wizones would abandon her and that she would end up with 17k in sales or something like that.

I wouldn't say it "went wrong", but it could have been bigger
I feel the long hiatus might have lost some hype.
And as much as I love Hush Rush, it isn't exactly the best song to capture her dancing skills which she is widely known for
Manifesting a banger dance song and that she will slay all the year end award shows with her dance moves, and have some year end dance collabs

During IZ*ONE I wasn't terribly impressed with her. However, I LOVED Hush Rush and Danny. Vocally, I didn't know she was that talented until Hush Rush and Danny. I'm super excited about further comebacks.
I loved Danny and liked Hush Rush as well. Danny is a B side SOTY contender.

She walked out into the cold world of "small company soloist." Being from a small company is hard. Being a soloist is hard. Being both is like impossible.

She basically only has her Wizone solo stans to support her. She has to maintain their loyalty (40k album sales) while converting GP into fans if she wants to grow.

I think her debut song was far from what people wanted/expected (ai. people wanted a hard hitting dance number to show off her skills). Regarding her relevancy in SK, I think the whole Street Woman Fighter debacle kinda hit her image hard. Like before she would always be in talks regarding the current top dancers but it feels like ever since SWF happened that conversation completely ended.
Also I STILL think she shines much better in a group than as a soloist. RBW buying WM really screwed her over

a lot of thing
she was never really popular among the GP so it's not like her solo debut was really anticipated
she waited to long to debut, in contrary of Eunbi who debut pretty quickly to surf on the post-izone hype, but when chaeyeon debut the hype was already dead
her debut song and concept felt very cheap and not really well excuted
and to be honest it's my personal opinion, but even if chaeyeon is a really good dancer and singer and great performer she just never was a soloist material in my eyes,
also as a soloist she lack of a clear distinct image as an artist
for example if i take the post-survival show soloist that we had ( somi, eunbi and chungha) they all had a clear image that they built during their years in their groups, their charisma on stage was of the roof and their personality was clearly showing thrrough their performance
before they all went in solo
we all knew that Chungha was soloist material and would end up doing a sexy concept, and that's what she did because she already knew the artist she was before going solo
we all knew Eunbi was the sexy, elegant type of performer and that's the road she took
Somi always had this youthful, playful side on stage and off stage so that's why the concept of heer music isn't a surprise to anybody who follow her
but chaeyeon (to me personally) never gave me the vibees like all of them did who make me thought " chaeyeon is soloist material and she would thrive in a ...... concept"
-
Not even like she was the star of that show or even popular. All it did was take away her main dancer hype cause she got beat bad on there
She was better than 90 percent of those hacks omg, all they did was pose with "fierce" expressions and swagger around the stage. Chaeyeon was a literal dancer, so graceful. Just LOOK at this.

I think I'd lose my mind if all of IZ*ONE sang Danny. It's right up their alley.

She went on SWF though you'd think that would grow her following even by a bit
She got dragged so bad on that show tho
-
- She always had a small fanbase if we compare with how much praise she got by non fans.
- She never stood out as a solo material imo like she is an amazing dancer, but she wasn't a Chung Ha with enough charisma.
- Her appearance in that dance show literally caused her MAIN DANCER image a negative impact like girl was dragged in her best position. She build up this main dancer image "concept" and went to a program where her weakness got highlighted way more than her strengths.
- her debut was "late", by the time she debuted I felt like the hype wasn't here anymore and the tt choice wasn't the best. People had an image about her and her company just gave her a completely different thing.
I don't think this is the end for her. She is talented for sure and has potential, but her company needs to realize her strength and use it like it was used in her Izone days.

I didn’t really know her and seeing her in SWF didn’t make me interested in knowing more. All she seemed to do was not be very good again and again and cry.
I’d compare this to say, Great Dance Crew, which had four idol hosts on it who would sometimes be challenged by the contestants to freestyle or battle them. Santa and Ten, experienced hip hop dancers, were always very good. Fei was an okay dancer but she had this fierce attitude, swagger and charisma that ruffled the contestants. Cheng Xiao wasn’t a particularly good dancer (except in traditional styles where she was excellent) either but she was cute and engaging.
My point here is that she could have sucked but still been an engaging character but she wasn’t and never seemed to really work on her weaknesses during the show. (Come on we’ve seen enough reality show edits where people work on it to turn it around.)
What probably would have more effective is to turn after that show and kill it with some amazing choreography and show off that you can indeed dance you’re just not a good freestyler. Anyone who kinda knew about her forgot about her by the time the debut came out that was just ok. In contrast, all those dance crew girls were out doing stuff right away to elevate their profile.
Her voice is not memorable or distinctive so choreo could have really set her apart from other small label soloists.

I remember her getting pretty high views for her fancams but now barely anyone was talking about her debut. What happened
