Jeffrey Jung 19,680 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Article: Kwanghee -> Dongjun -> Siwan -> Hyungshik... ZE:A are roly polies Source: Star News via Naver 1. [+793, -11] I don't think Park Hyungshik expected himself to become so big through a variety show either 2. [+677, -9] What if the group only succeeds after all nine members have their turn getting popular 3. [+646, -31] This group is so weird in that they're individually popular but the team is barely scraping by 4. [+508, -10] They really need to get the ball rolling... I always feel like they have something big ready but they're always in uncertain grounds.. ㅜ Get popular! 5. [+485, -33] I like that compared to other idols, their members aren't the thin, short, high school teen looking types. I think anyone in their mid to late 20s will know what I'm talking about. Their problem is that their songs are bad and their dances don't stand out. Siwan and Hyungshik are probably the two tops when it comes to handsomeness among male idols alone. 6. [+304, -10] It really is weird how they all took turns getting popular but the group is still in the same place ㅋㅋ Maybe it'll get better 7. [+292, -4] Just choose the right song 8. [+290, -25] An odd group that does better separately than together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanoid 279 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's not like all of them are individually popular. Only like 3(?)/9 are. Without any hit songs, of course they are flopping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApinkPandaOfApink 338 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Perfect example of a group that individual popularity doesn't help the group at all It's not like all of them are individually popular. Only like 3(?)/9 are. Without any hit songs, of course they are flopping Poor excuseNot all Apink member are popular too,but people still are interested in their comeback songs because of Eunji and NaeunThat is 1/3. It is arguably that Siwan and Hyungshik might be even more popular individually than Eunji because of their hit dramas on national channelsAll ZEA need is a good song,but their individual popularity doesn't get people to listen their songs,then it might be the problem of the group itselfNot only ZEA,a lot of other groups have similar situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
✨ Ass Fat ✨ 9,598 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 the problem is Kwangheee JOKES JOKES JOKES but seriously the only reason they're popular is because of Kwanghee, Siwan and Dongjun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krusty95 1,432 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I will be very honest here, I only know like 5 members well from ZE:A. Those being Siwan, Dongjun, Hyungsik, Kevin and Kwanghee. I know their leader is Junyoung but I don't really follow his activities because he was injured last year and is not as popular. I like some of their music like 'Phoenix' and ZE:A FIVE's 'The Day We Broke Up', but I haven't really gotten into their other songs. I think in the K-pop scene, musically they are not as popular, but individually some members are quite well known. I hope they get more exposure and recognition in the future because for a group that debuted in 2010, they haven't reached big heights yet, unlike Infinite. ZE:A fighting !

Ruby Faith 5,082 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think they just need to make a song that stands out ... They're talented enough . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdoyouthink 329 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 their latest comeback song is really good with great choreography but apparently it wasn't good enough to the public. these guys have potential though. maybe after a hit song or all 9 of them are getting recognised (which will take hell of time).

KillerBee 2,951 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The problem is that this long after their debut, they're still only known musically for this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Millie Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The problem with them is that they vanish after a comeback. They're not popular yet, so they could have 2 to 3 comebacks per year. Top idol groups release a song per year and ZE:A is not there yet, but promoting as if they were. Star Empire could very much make it happen like they did with Nine Muses. Their newer song was a step in the right direction, but still not public-friendly enough. They had quite a hype when they debuted (because of their size and because of Mazeltov) but then Star Empire made several mistakes starting from their Level Up MV, which was never released, and then started making low budget MVs/promos and cute concepts for every comeback. Nine Muses changed their image without a relevant member, I think it's not impossible for ZE:A, they just need to come back more often even if it is for a try out to know which style public prefers best. I like this though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6O15yrchPdQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anh. 5,127 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 they just need that hit song to get them that push they needed, and also give other members a chance at variety shows/dramas/cfs beside the usual 4. make more comebacks as well it'll take awhile for all nine of them to get very relevant though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE might thought the individual popularity that kwanghee, siwan, hyungshik and dongjun got will affect their popularity as a group. But it's proved wrong. The huge popularity of their individual members doesn't make them a top group yet, that might be what SE thought they were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
