Isn't this honestly unprecedented for rookie idols??


hess

Recommended Posts

Winning awards in music as a soloist, in acting, and in variety all within just 1.5 years of debut?

 

Freaking Kim Sejeong out there snatching all the awards across all the entertainment fields in no time at all. She's seriously worked hard- debuted in two groups, as a soloist, as an actress, all those variety appearances, and all those CFs. 

 

 

When Sejeong sets goals for herself, she really knows how to follow through, damn... I need to learn from her. 

Her goal is for Gugudan to win 1st now, and I'm really hoping this one comes true too.

I think you mean post-IOI? Since unquestionably they were still building popularity while promoting as IOI. Tbh I can admit that there is some loss of hype and what can you expect when they lose the hype surrounding being an IOI member. But I think that you don't hear as much about them is especially amplified by the fact that they have a noticeable decreased international fanbase compared to domestic. 

 

There's Weki Meki who was hardly on i-fans radars except for those of us aware of the fandom power of those IOI girls, Yoojung especially, until their album sales results came out. Doyeon's solo activities have only gotten bigger and better. And Chungha who has really moved to solidify her career and individual star power since the disbandment, easily arguable that she's only gotten more popular. Sohye people don't really hear much about since she doesn't make music anymore, but she's very busy in radio, talk shows, and acting. Somi who there really isn't much to be able to talk about since she has yet to debut. Sejeong and Chaeyeon who get brought up now and then, but I think generally underestimated by i-fans.

There's a reason she's called god Sejeong and popularized that type of nickname as well as popularizing the flower road statement.

 

Who else is coming back on the 25th? If Gugudan's song does well they'll have a shot at winning in this comeback.

They do a lot of stuff but if you're not a fan of them you may not know about. Individually they have good fanbases that are around the mid tier in size. But IOI was definitely big enough as a group that people who didn't follow them at all could still stumble across news of them since together they commanded that type of attention.

Yessss, #1 ranked in that CF brand index among all female celebs (not just idols) was incredibly impressive too!

One thing that set Sejeong apart is that she can sing and does well on variety show. I don't think there is another rookie idol who is capable with doing the same thing. She has a strong mentality and never appear slacking off. Also, I think Jelpi selects her projects well (a bit too safe I think?) so she isn't placed in a situation where hater could attack her.

She got some flack for landing School 17 lead, also a bit after she won the rookie award. Apparently she was up against several more experienced actresses.

 

She has done a great job at building her image though, it's hard to attack her in much. Although haters still find ways. She got hate for coming off as fake, forced smile, it kinda got ridiculous during P101 for those who didn't like that she was getting 1st.
