Since I've known her back in her HKT48 and AKB48 days, she has always been popular but never quite reached the top spot. In Izone, she lost to Wonyoung, and in LSF, she was overshadowed by Chaewon and Yunjin. While her Chinese fanbase increased in LSF, we saw Wy and Aespa members unexpectedly gaining huge support there. In Japan, she still lags behind Sana.
Girl is really something, but she works really hard for her spot now. At least, not like what she gained now is nothing anyway.
