Not just music could be acting as well like Suzy and yoona. But so far nothing really shows that Wonyoung will take that route. But maybe she will.

Imo to be IT girl you have to be popular in “entertainment” outside of just your group. Karina has shown that in her music. We should wait to see what Wonyoung will shine in.

One thing is for certain just being popular in your group will not keep you in the IT girl discussion for long that will sustain maybe for the first 3-4 years at the most. Irene is a great example of it as well. She neither chose acting nor music and even if her scandal didn’t happen she was fading.

another example is also Cha en woo who flopped with his group but took up acting and showcased his solo power.

So yeah that would be the criteria imo.

modeling and advertising. that's where Wonyoung shines. Wonyoung has literally put brands on the map. it's one thing to model for a popular brand and it's another to make a brand popular. a little bit more vague but her name, having JANG WONYOUNG attached to your brand brings a level of prestige to it.

maybe an influencer. she doesn't even try to influence but has an entire lifestyle based on her.

first of all your comment about sakura and wonyoung being majority of sales is plane false.

cfans contributed somewhere around the ball park of 20k copies. while large is nowhere enough to be called majority.

in japan minju, yuri, and chaewon actually make up the 2nd, 3rd and 4th of individual sales sakura being 1st and wonyoung being 5th.

korea is not that different except for chaewon actually being the most popular member in korea by the time they disbanded.

about adding chowon and juri, thats just a mess waiting to happen
first of all chowon has no claim on the izone relaunch being this separated from all involvement in PD48 as well as a vast majority of Wizones not even watching the show and being fans of izone themselves after debut.

second you are over estimating Juri lmao, juri has no where near the name sakura has in japan being ranked 12th and has individual sales of 48k when she left the AKB now compare to sakura which peaked at rank 3rd with 141k sales when she last participated in rankings. juri also has no claim to this same with chowon.

not to mention the fact that they both have their respected groups already and would cause an uproar for all fandoms involved. also that juri is now branded as a traitor the 48 fandom lmao.

youre spewing all this things but it is evident you only know surface level and outdated rumours and facts.

you yourself have already said that this moves will piss the fandom off. the fandom that is doing everything in its power to have OT12 and open to a subunit but never have the organizers or the people funding this said we want new members or that we are doing this for chowon or gauen or any other PD48 trainees. we are doing this for the girls that make up izone the 12 members that make it what it is. some "wizones" if theyre even legit wizones and not people posing as one say that they open this this bull? but guess what theyre most likely not the one funding this whole project. so at the end of the day they have no right to complain or be upset at the reults and wish of the project.

Izone won't become permanent either way, are people really believing that article CJ put it on? The same articles with the same words were for Wanna one and X1.

main difference i think is that unlike wanna one or x1 there is legit no other produce group to take over, there's no alternative or back up. they lose izone they lose their entire music division. so they might push harder on this than previous groups.

worth noting is that unlike other produce groups which was marketed 100% towards the korean gp, izone also japan and vernalossom to add to the equation. there is no way in hell any post izone group would have an even close level of popularity or sales that they are getting in japan, not just because fans wont care about them anymore but they MIGHT (AND THATS A BIG MIGHT) legit run into the trouble of having to fight vernalossom in the future (vernalossom and its web of connections and wealth certainly has enough capital to wall off any meaningful attemp to break into japan.
