I agree that they'll most likely stick to girly-pop for now, in wanting to stay within a concept range. I find it interesting though that OTR has already let Yujin (and Wonyoung) do "sexyish" thing with IZ and they are younger than Jiheon (I do think there are other dynamics at play there, but that's beside the point for now). Yeah, fromis_9 are aesthetically endowed of face and form. I think a good choreography and outfits would be a great way to demonstrate their endowments and skills.

@satoori That's a fair assessment. Good points. Just one clarification, I should've written "Gfriend with the example of the progression with Navillera and Fingertip" where Navi serves as a mid-point between school-girl and young lady (FT), that retains important elements of Rough/Navi. One thing I hope they don't do is the "teen-crush" thing or whatever Itzy and their imitators have been doing, unless it's more like Wannabe (which is mostly okay, I guess). It's tricky trying to anticipate what they'll do next. I do think it's high time to show fromis_9's dancing skills properly, though. Come on, Dancing Queens_9!

Yeah, I also think they could pull off the To.Heart sound without the school girl image (not that they'll actually do it though). To me To.Heart is pop-rock and not inherently "school-girl." SNSD with Way to Go is a good example. I think Gfriend with Navillera and Fingertip is a good example of a group that matured but didn't discard their earlier (To.Heartish) sound. Now let's say fromis is past the point of integrating To.Heart-like-sound and are intent on pursuing the Love Bomb formula. I think there ought to be no rush to be "girl-crush" (whatever that means) because there are ways to pursue a more mature Love Bomb-esque style. I've said before that to me Love Bomb can naturally lead to concepts/sound like T-Ara's Sexy Love, Rainbow's Mach, SNSD's Hoot, or Kara's Mister/Step It Up, which is a musical space that remains empty in this generation of groups, except for April's LaLaLiLaLa or Izone maybe. (If you ask me Love Bomb is closer to Sexy Love). And a MATURE mature fromis for me would approximate SNSD's Run Devil Run, Kara's Pandora, or Dreamcatcher's Silent Night/Scream. I'd be happy with either the pop-rock or the electro-pop though. (But no more Fun§ for me, thank you).
