Let's be honest, visual members don't add much to groups in the talent department. But I don't mind it if they are actually stunning, like Irene or Tzuyu. But many times they don't really have such outstanding looks either, not even in their groups. If I can't tell the ''visual'' member without checking the official positions, is that member really worthy of the title?
g-idle's Shuhua, Gfriend's Sowon, Oh My Girl's Jiho, 2ne1's Dara, CLC's Eunbin, Loona's Hyunjin and so on
I'm not saying those girls are ugly or anything, just not particularly stunning. I feel like they were put into their groups just for the sake of having sb with the ''visual'' title. Many of them get outshined by their fellow non-visual members even. Miyeon, Eunha, Arin/YooA, Yeeun/Elkie, Chuu are more recognized visually than the official ''visuals''
So, do you think having a ''visual'' member a must in a group? If the supposed ''visual'' is not particularly stunning, can the position be given to one of the existing members?
PS: Sorry if the title sounds disrespectful. I put it there to receive more attention
PS2: Arguing whether the names mentioned above are actually pretty or not is not the point of this thread. Look at the bigger picture of what I'm talking about instead of solely focusing on the names mentioned above plz
