How did Yujin end up being more popular than Chaewon despite it being the opposite during IZ*ONE's run?

i don't know who's more popular but yujin got more known to the public because ive blew up and earth arcade was a hit variety show

At first i thought you were talking about Yunjin ( honestly it would've made more sense if you talked about her) well Yunjin kept in being active after Izone disbandment wishe wasn't the case for Chaewon also i think Chaewon is getting a whole new type of fans that didn't know her during her Izone period or at least didn't notice her and she's having a lot of cult flowing wish I'm happy about

Nah, Yujin is more popular among the gp but Chaewon has bigger fanbase and international popularity. Their ig followers is one of the example. Yujin surpassed Chaewon who in hiatus for a year. But it didn't take long after Lsf debut for Chaewon to take the lead back by a huge gap.

Yujin is more well known in korea bc ive is obviously the bigger group than lesserafim and yujin appeared on the biggest variety show last year so her name is more familiar to the public, hence all the cfs and brand deals, but in terms of fandom the same trend doesn’t really apply. I’d say they’re pretty equal in terms of popularity with chaewon doing slightly better internationally

yujin was always popular

"Objectively" Chaewon is higher

Yujin shined more in IVE than Izone imo.

Also, Yujin have Earth Arcade which become a big hit in Korea. Yujin was trending high during Earth Arcade broadcast time.
