  1. Fair line distribution in KPOP is nonexistent especially for big groups like IZ*ONE. Even some smaller group has some shitty line distribution. There will always gets the shorter end of the stick. Deal with it. Its KPOP101

     

    In Lver Nako - Hitomi - Hyewon gets the shorter end of the stick

     

    For Suki to it was Hitomi - Minju - Chaeyeon

     

    For Violeta i think it was Chaeyeon - Nako - Hitomi

     

    You do not complain about line distributions because Minju gets several.
     
    And do not talk to me about Suki To Iwasetai, because Minju is selling many slots.
     
    The just would be Minju to have the number of Nako lines, after all, his ranking is # 11.

  2. Reading a few pages I realized that most of the criticism as to the management of Akip comes from fans of Wonyoung and Yujin.

    It's interest, both are the ones that receive the most publicity solo and with great audience in Korea. It's obvious that fans will defend OTR.

    In Suki To Iwasetai, Nako was the member with the most number of lines.

    In Violet, the last.

    So let's criticize the Japanese releases because our favorites do not shine.

    How long will they pretend to care about jline?

  3. For some people that don't think Sakura or any member appreciates getting lines or that they don't care at all about getting them and why their fans hoped for a little more lines for them.

     

    Look at how happy Sakura is talking about getting a lot of parts

     

     

    I'm sure the same goes to other members.Fair line and screentime don't hurt anyone and would actually helps kill animosity between individual fandoms.Everyone can be content and we can all be happy.

     

    I heard about Yena being lead vocals for the new track and Minju rapping.I think OTR is taking step to the right direction.If I understand this direction right and OTR will switch push,I can't wait for j line and Chaewon/Hyewon to get their turns.

    B-SIDE?!

  4. I think the 50% sales thing is for the pre-orders from chinese fans, right? not the total sales of the group. I think I saw a number like 5000+ copies were bought by her chinese fans, which is great! But honestly even if c-fans stop buying, IZONE will still sell good, it's not like the agency will notice when the total sales go up to 200k. and even if they did notice something, they would never know the reason behind it and it would change nothing... and even if chinese fans get mad (it happened to other c-fandoms of members in other groups), in the end they'll still buy. They still want to get their albums and Sakura cover and photocards, or a chance to meet her at fansign. and most Sakura fans are from Japan, even if the chinese fans spend a lot (especially for events like the birthday events). For japanese fans, I think they are not bothered by screentime or lines issues since they're used to 48G's system, they don't really bother with these things that are very "Kpop". tbh I feel the same, probably because I'm used to follow her as Jpop idol. of course anyone is free not to buy the album if you're dissapointed in something, it's our rights.

     

    Let's wait for the full music video and song!

     

     

    I'll put this in spoiler since it's random thoughts.

     

    tbh Sakura's goal when going to PD48 was to get more popular and be known by more people. and she already achieved her goal since day 1 in PD48 (the Nekkoya performance), something that was not even in my imagination happened and she became popular all over the world, it's just amazing... Now all she gets is really a bonus. She got better opportunities in Japan as well after being in IZONE, because it's less members than AKB and she's the one leading in talking since she's japanese and the most popular (she wasn't the most popular in 48G and had a lot of seniors, it was more complicated). She looks happier and not worried for her career anymore. She also enjoys living together with team-mates. I don't know if you all noticed this since I'm comparing her before PD48 and after PD48.

     

    She gets good things in Korea too even though she's still learning korean but she's already regular in a show. You won't find another idol who's not fluent in korean and yet get such a good opportunity. She looks happy in the show. I honestly think she's very satisfied with everything now and she probably just wants to enjoy these 2 years as much as she can and I wish the fans could have this positivity too. Sakura pretty much achieved her goals and dream and it's not one less line or one less second on screen that will hurt her (besides we still didn't hear the song or see the Mv). She went through more difficult time for years before. Let's just be happy that she's enjoying her time in this group for the next 2 years and be happy that she's in this project to begin with. in 2 years once it's all over, you won't ever see Sakura as Kpop idol, no more comebacks, and maybe she'll even graduate from 48G and move on from being idol. what I'm trying to say is we should enjoy the present and don't let details bother you when in the bigger picture, it's mostly positivity for Sakura. when you'll look back at this moment in few years, you want to think of it as happy times rather than sad times, right?

     

    and side-note, I don't think lines and screentime is what make members stand out, but styling (just look at all the Minjoo talks after that 2 seconds in the initial teaser). Let's hope Sakura has good styling then no matter the amount of screentime and lines, she will stand out. So far the styling in the Mv teasers look good! I'll be happy if she gets a "key" line like she did with "la la la la vie en rose". I think impact matters.

     

    It's a great point of view, thanks for sharing with the topic.

     

    Maybe i'm just upset before i even see what the official comeback will look like. We all know that the j-line was not "favored" in LVER. Sakura was lucky to get a striking phrase and Nako a break.

     

    I love 48G's and i do not get irritated by the system that is placed and fulfilled. We will always know that the center and its two aces will be highlighted, as well as the rest of the Kami 7. I believe that the rank of the group should work equally well with the SSK... we see that things do not work that way. I particularly find it unfair.

     

    But all my annoyance are just frustrations of something that has not yet happened.

     

    Anyway, thanks for understanding and showing another view of the situation.

  5. This is my two cents before one try to "start" another round at some other places. Just like yesterday, when one create some chaos, can the forum help Sakura get more screentime or lines in the end? We cannot even control her video time allocation and you think the team forum (with 11 other members fans) will be in a better position? Going to the team's forum to vent anger, start bashing other members and talk about popularity won't help her AT ALL and will bring out her real antis. And You can voice out opinions in a more tactful way cos it is unspoken "semi-communists" rule that stick to your bias and don't bash others in the team's yt video and forum. Yes, there will be a few YouTube comments "stop talking about one member". But who cares cos it is only that minority group and the majority rational ppl are fine with it and it is not going to stop me from commenting my views either and without bashing others. I am just trying to protect Sakura in my own way. There are always new people coming in and out in the team's forum and even in YouTube videos. We also want them to be Sakura's stans and not view us as arrogant. Peace

    When I say that fans of Sakura need to act, I'm not talking about the members of this forum, but about their Chinese fans. They give you basically 50% sales and do not get a return.

     

    People are very sensitive and can not subtract constructive criticism.

     

    I'm just putting my point of view on the company's management regarding Sakura.

     

    I will not shut up for fear of retaliation or if they get angry.

     

    I'm not breaking the rules.

     

    Are we in a dictatorship?
