An 07 amongst 02 03 04 04 04??

A middle schooler in the middle of 18~20 year olds all of a sudden..

They’re not even a Produce group and it’s not like they’ve got lots of members, was there really a need to make them debut with such an age gap?

She’ll be an adult 5 years into their career, and in 2 years, all the other members will have become adults. Instead they should have made them debut as 5, it looks like they’ve got no merit

Unless she’s an all rounder or super-talented, she’ll seem ambiguous [as a member]

1. [+81][-7] What are you saying, even if you just look at IZ*ONE, Kwon Eunbi and Jang Wonyoung had a 9 year age gap

2. [+78][-1] So what, Red Velvet Yeri was like that too,, I don’t think 3 years is that big an age gap

3. [+71][-7] Her face is pretty and her figure is lengthy and nice so why…? And what do you mean by a 5 member group when it’s been decided that they’re a 6 member group. Why would you have to upload this kind of post and hurt the maknae, she’s so young too

4. [+47][-0] No-one’s saying it but there are lots of members with quite a large age gap;

5. [+43][-0] ’07… If they hate on her, they’re seriously devils..

6. [+42][-0] NCT Dream also debuted when they were young and that worked out well. I don’t think age matters

7. [+39][-0] I don’t really think that.. There’s that kind of age gap in other groups too, and putting her age aside, doesn’t it work if she suits the group? She’s really f*cking pretty and when you put the 6 of them together, she doesn’t stand out as looking super young by herself

8. [+38][-0] Why are you criticising her using her age…

Oh the gap doesn't matter, I am a bit uncomfortable with how young she is, but I suppose that the norm at this point...

The oldest member is only four and a half years older than her and is a 2002 liner, so the age gap isn't that big to begin with, but she is very young indeed.

my only problem with her age was pointed by op of that k forum thread

"she will be an adult 5 years into their career"

so because she is included she is closing many doors for other members, because they won't be able to do some concepts

I think all the other members are already adults in Korean age so yeah, it limits them but at the same time, they're all really really young so it's better if they don't start off with more grown concepts

Quote from bartkun

yeah I get it they don't need to start with them you are right but the thing is they will need to wait this 5 years to do something like that, which is a pity because this will basically mean that Yujin and Wonyoung will be 8 year seniors when they will be able to do something like that...

I see what you mean

Quote from chanbinhan

I wanted to stan this group but seeing the maknae I kinda stepped back. The kid is like 7 years younger than me and that's no way comfortable for me to stan such younger idols. I think in two or three years 10 liners will debut too. I'll step away from kpop or just stan the older groups if they stay active.

I'm almost double her age and it makes me feel very protective of her
