I mean, she is a visual

I know, I know. Arguably Miyeon is the one who fits the standards the most and is noted as a visual most often, but a kpop group needs more than one that fits (not necessarily but it's always good) and Shuhua is right up there too.

But in the end we'll never know for sure. When a company debuts an idol I believe they do have a reason that we might not fully understand. I mean, I'm not saying that Cube couldn't be in the wrong for thinking she was ready to debut, but that they could've seen something in her worth of putting her in the lineup.

They must've noticed her weaknesses, how she wasn't even good in korean and probably still needed to improve

And yet they decided to debut her anyway haha

And it's kinda too little too late. She debuted so she's now an important piece of the group, probably not so much for casuals or non-fans, but for neverlands I believe she's deserving of being there just like any of the others. And that's what matters in the end.

Hope she improves and gains even more recognition

3rd gen started 2012-2013 but the groups only really started to peak around 2016 and so

You can see this by MAMA nominees for example. Shitty and rigged? yes. But it's kinda a good metric of which groups are at the top (ofc not all that made numbers but you get me)

Until 2015, it was dominated by 2nd gen groups

I like to celebrate but with something simple, like having a meal with close friends and/or family. Perhaps even go somewhere cool.

I like my birthday because it's kinda like a "me day". I know millions of people celebrate theirs just like me, but somehow I feel it's special haha

But yeah, even I have to admit things used to be more "magical" when I was younger. But that's life too, as you get older, depending on who you are, some celebrations just kinda lose it's edge.

The Uncanny Counter and King In Love

funny thing is both have female idols on main cast: Sejeong in TUC and Yoona in KIL

I'd get a good laugh at least

Any group gets hate for just existing tbh lol

Orbits are too overdramatic tbh. They jump to conclusions too quickly, make a mess of everything that could've benefited the group and sometimes I am like "TF??" with some attitudes.

Plus, though a lot of things are funny, some of the "attempts to go viral" were really not it. Like the fake beef between Lip and Lana, also the one between Jeffree Star and Choerry. It just attracts negative attention in my opinion. Thankfully the targets so far have been controversial figures that nobody will try to defend that much, but still.

By the way she won the round!!! Fifth LOONA member to go (one more and half of the group will have been on KOMS as contestants)

I guess I'm the same age group of the maknaes lol. If I debuted in a 3rd gen group I guess I'd be on the maknae line if not the actual maknae

Chuu's world domination pt 2 - complete

Meh these discussions about sales vs charting are tiresome and repetitive

Selling a lot + Charting good = The perfect ideal, only few groups can do this (and even then not all cbs)

Sell a lot only = fandom power/good indication of possible tours/merch. Nowadays a lot of groups survive mostly on that

Chart good only = Gp power/CF, dramas, variety. Nowadays I believe there aren't that many who only have charting, usually when a group does it comes with good sales too.

Doesn't matter if you're better in one or the other, if the company sees that it's working for them then the group is doing well. Imo, selling a lot and not charting is miles ahead of neither selling nor charting

I never met personally, but I'm friends with a girl who went to a KARD fansign in our city haha

If next time they come here, I'll go with her

Who do you think is the prettiest in LOONA?

Jinsoul

Future is unpredictable but I'd like LOONA, Weeekly, Stray Kids, Dreamcatcher, Ateez to have a really good year with growth and success for them
