The above may not be the right title, but i feel that’s playing a huge role
So During i-land2 RYU SARANG i remember had the i am the best attitude. Her Unforgiven and the sugarcoat + micdrop stages were the ones which really highlighted her stage presence and her skillset. She also nailed the feminine concepts too with 4 walls,iwaly,into the new world. At that point it really felt she was on par with the other top contestants
But after debuting in izna i felt that she stands out less compared to the other members, and i don’t see that same attitude/spark from her. there were definetly some stages where she showed that spark, but for some i don’t see it .i can’t say what exactly lead to this but this is what i have observed
-
maybe she is really tired as they have a gruelling schedule
-
Her styling really doesn’t let her standout.
- She has had the minimal styling variation compared to the other members and her brown hair shade hasn’t enhanced her visuals, her black hair suits her better.
- And i don’t know if it’s the company’s decision or her’s you usualy see her wearing skirts and dresses more. I am not saying she can’t wear those, but i don’t believe the styling team gives her stuff that enhances her most of the time. And maybe i am hung up about it , but i believe her wearing jeans,pants and shorts would enhance her presence more especially for their gir-crush, dance heavy songs like mamma mia, metronome
- And i think this is lowkey hurting the way she performs as she doesn’t feel she is in her element
- And she had short hair for metronome, and they used extensions for her stages, which again reset things to square 1
- sometimes i do feel izna’s music also plays a part as all members don’t shine in all concepts.
Like Maybe i am overthinking/imagining this. But in a group made from a mnet survival show every member picked has that star quality/ a skill that makes them stand out. So it’s important to style them in such a way that they are cohesive while every member stands out. it’s also a part of branding/identity for idols. And how you percieve yourself plays a huge part in your confidence.
I could be wrong about this too though end of the day, but this is what i feel
