Well, they have a comeback. So it's not the right time for complaining.

No, we like Chun Li legs.

But sure, it's up to everyone to believe what they want, I just saying it sounds very unlikely she whould get the skills need to create a song all by herself in the short period from starting her trainee time to debuting. Most of the time must have been spent on the singing/rapping and dancing.

Some people are more gifted than others. Ryan Jhun was already praising Soyeon's vocals in Produce 101 even though she entered as a rapper. In UPR3 she was arguably the best rapper of the show, despite her being the maknae. She acquired dance skills through ballet and street dancing even before joining Cube. So no, she didn't have a lot of training to do since she already was the best trainee her company had, unlike many idols who have a lot of ground to cover for being debut ready. And all that time she didn't have to spend to become competent at basic idol things, she could spend it on acquiring other skills, like composing and producing, which she did.

So no, there is nothing unlikely about all that stuff. She worked passionately to become the prodigy she is today. She didn't fluke her way into the list of the most credited idol songwriters by random chance. Now that would be unlikely.

Yes, and that is also one of my points. A lot of artist are people that "picked an instrument and learnt to play" or the typical singer songwriters. I don't mean they need a formal music education, but I have not seen anything in her background and says she have played any kind of music instrument, what I see is she has a balett background but switch to singing and rap. It's hard to believe someone that don't have gone in somekind of musis eduaction or at least learned to play instrument by themself suddenly would be able to write and produce their on music and songs. Sure, they could write lyrics and do some kind of music production, but doing it without a lot of help from others? But maybe I have missed something in her background and she have been playing instrumend since childhood are something? I just base my belief on what I have read about her and her age.

She's doing pop music, not instrument based music. And yes, she received music lessons at Cube during her trainee days. In behind-the-scenes video, you can see her play and record demos on a keyboard.

Not sure why you keep bringing her ballet background. She did ballet back when she was a toddler. It's barely relevant to what she is today.

But in this case, it's just very unlikely that a person with her background the group would suddenly write and "produce" the majority of the songs by themself. She was around 20 when the groups debuted and reading about her background, she studied ballet?, no signs of any music training at all or the she played an instrument. That just it very hard to believe she suddenly would be able to write and produce hit songs? It would be more easier to believe if it was after 7-10 or more years of experience an artist so she had time to learn during the years in kpop.

Argument from incredulity. And ignorance.

Most rock bands out there have no formal musical training. They just picked an instrument and learnt to play and compose by jamming in their garage. Do you think Metallica attended a music school? They recorded and released their first album at age 19.

I did write SEE not hear lol

ok so you're nitpicking lol

alright then it's not even OT6 in terms of seeing as Soojin a she barely has the screentime of a backup dancer

Quote from selfmate

last time we see OT6 Gidle

more like OT5.5 (g)i-dle as Soojin can be seen but can't be heard

Diversity was an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.

the best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be

The world was not ready for OT6's unstoppable rise to global domination. We were heading for a disaster of biblical proportions. Like, real wrath-of-God type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling. Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... Mass hysteria!

Soojin took the fall to save us all.

Nana's on top, I can't say I'm surprised. Now I'm curious to see what they gonna do with this line-up.

After Tomboy's unexpected smashing success, I thought it would remain their best performing song. I guess I was wrong.

Mimi

The top gg is whoever has the most g's. Therefore (G)I-DLE.

And if you think they're 3.5, well think again because 3.5 rounds to 4. It's science.

(g)i-dle going full bing chilling

Make-up witchery

Alex_Murphy You didn't bought Queencard LE badge

yes I did. plus Allergy and I Do

It's because (G)I-DLE is the best group ever. Their popularity is so high I can't even describe it. Ever heard of The Beatles? Well, it's nothing like that but it's pretty good anyhow!
