Nayeon is Grateful for Tzuyu's Huge Popularity When Twice First Debuted

Wow, fans argue over who deserves to be center. Who is the most popular. Why this member is pushed and that one isn't....

And in the end, some people are grateful to those members.

People were upset that Sullyoon was being pushed so hard by JYPE, and how they switched the order from Jinni in the middle to Sullyoon. But in the end, some of the girls are probably grateful to Sullyoon that her beauty gives people a chance to notice them as well.

Not saying all the members are like this, but I remember how people tried to pit Nayeon and Tzuyu against each other because Nayeon won #1 and was the center, but Tzuyu was clearly the most popular during that time. And, in the end, Nayeon was happy Tzuyu was there, and feels like because of Tzuyu, Twice was able to reign as the Top GG in Korea for over 3 years and became the Nation's GG at the time.

Here's perspective for you.

It's SQU4D that promote NMIXX, SQU4D are part of Division 4 that also include Studio J and Studio X.

SQU4D has nothing to do with the other 3 Divisions in JYPE, so saying JYPE is promoting a Group is inaccurate because it's just like saying SQU4D are promoting TWICE or Itzy or NiziU. Currently, all JYPE GGs are in different Divisions where NiziU are managed by JYPE Japan.

Anyway, Sullyoon isn't being pushed by SQU4D rather it's the attention Sullyoon has created on her own through fans and Korean Media.

But you are correct that the average Kpop fan thinks that JYPE are pushing certain members or groups

Okay, yes, they are different divisions but SQU4D is still a part of JYPE. Whatever they do has to be approved by JYPE first I am sure. Do I think the top brass is paying attention to the little details of their marketing tactics, no, but at the end of the day SQU4D represents JYPE as well.

Oh another thing, I do think Sullyoon is being pushed. But not actively pushed like going on variety shows or doing solo promotions. But they are capitalizing on the attention she is receiving by spotlighting her where they can without overdoing it. The fact she was the thumbnail for the MV screams to me that the agency and the management team is leveraging her popularity.

They are doing that because of her organic attention, but she is currently being pushed as the face of NMIXX by the public and SQU4D.

That's mainly due to people thinking that JYPE micromanages everything but the Divisional System has been in place since at least 2017 after JYPE successful trials with TWICE.

That is simply marketing strategy for the thumbnail likely based on the pre-debut Covers that SQU4D were releasing as part of the build up to their debut.

BUT the member that SQU4D are pushing is Lily....

Talent ranks above Visuals, so it's natural that Lily has been highlighted for her Talent on Radio Shows and Interviews

No. Literally no. If that were the case, Jiwoo, Jinni, and Kyujin would have been the thumbnail. They by far had the most hype predebut for their covers.

But, let's agree to disagree. I can tell this is something we aren't going to come to terms with.
