Is there underappreciation for individual dancer/vocalists for groups where all members excel???

No these groups are just nugu and akp only care about groups under BIG4 all threads on other groups are flops and totally ignores the idols and artists of these groups.

Put the same idols under a BIG3 label they will all tell you that they have an extraordinary talent.

2am/Day6 are Big 3, 2am are even having a comeback soon. Seventeen is under HYBE so technically Big4

True but they're nugu here.

I think it just has to do with the fact that certain groups are less popular on AKP. Hoshi definitely belongs in the discussion with Taemin/Jimin/Jhope/Kai/Ten, ect.

That may be a reason, the fandoms are pretty quiet too.

Also, maybe those members don't have individual activities ?

I know Hoshi and Dino have some individual activities, like pictorials and mixtapes, but they don't go to tv shows, for ex., alone.

edit : ok, so I thought you meant in general, and not on akp in particular

Hell yes. I often think this with NCT. Because the group is at such a high and technical and cohesive dance level, the members don’t get enough credit for their abilities. I think it’s only really realized when other people try to cover their choreo (and even then it’s usually the simpler choreos or simpler sequences). Even members that are “weaker” dancers are actually quite good just to keep up with that choreo, it’s just that the level is so high throughout. Most of the leads could be mains..and some of the others could be leads in many other groups.

It's because the others idols named in the Op have more fans here compared to the ones who don't receive that much appreciation.

Definitely. It's why I think being an all-rounder group is overrated. If everybody's pretty good at everything, nobody really stands out. Think it's way better to have an awesome singer, an amazing dancer, a supermodel face, etc.
