[DISC] Why is Gfriend's Sowon always shoved to the back? Jihyun 2.0?

I don't get it, why does the management always shove her to the back with half a line in each song? She's the prettiest member imho (and my favorite one), and sure she can't sing, but still giving her half a line is too extreme. I've watched their remix stages where they performed two songs, and she didn't even sing there, or get a close-up..


 


So why do you think the management treats her like that?


 


This is 4minute's Jiyhun all over again, they're really similar - both leaders, both always shoved to the back despite being prettiest.. But compared to Sowon in Gfriend's songs Jihyun gets decent amount of lines in 4minute songs, especially nowadays.


 


Discuss!

I love Sowon but I have to be honest, she is not the best vocalist or dancer  at the moment that's pretty much the reason, she is actually aware of that and have said it on interviews.

I think her time will come in their next comeback she is supposed to be the rapper, so I'm assuming Gfriend will have rapping parts in the future and that's where she will have her time to shine.

 

ngl as a Sinb biased I can't really complain with this promotion.

personal opinion.

Buddies always wishing for Sowon get more part and get more center in formation. but from what i know from Sowon interview or stories, she's still not confident for sing more lines. In her 4 years in DSP she's trained as rapper not vocalist, that's mean she only get vocal training while in Soumu (less than a year). My positive thinking is that Soumu offered her more lines but she's prefered to waited until she get more confidences.

I've read their fans say she's the rapper so I've always just assumed that's why she's never sang as much but I've also never seen any confirmation of them having rappers in the first place

Really? That's the first time I've heard of there being a rapper in GFriend. I always found it refreshing that they didn't have raps in their songs.

Sowon trained as rapper in DSP, but because GFriend song didn't match well with rap she need to sings (according to her radio interview). I personally saw Sowon sacrificing herself for Gfriend to do great. :rlytearpls:

I love Sowon and I also think she's the prettiest. But although she's good enough of a dancer to keep up, we have to understand that she hasn't made it in the group to be spotlighted in performance. She's not extraverted enough to do better than Yerin in variety shows, so Yerin is the face not as in she's the visual but as in she's a familiar face.

 

So Sowon is meant to act or be an MC, that's how she can do her part in establishing GFRIEND as a household name. But if there are better singers, they're going to get the lines and if there are better dancers, they're going to be in the front, so in performances it's people like Yuju/Eunha/SinB who are meant to shine, and Yerin in the front cause she's a familiar face like I said. It's marketing haha!
