    I just wanna clarify she's not one of the least popular members ANYMORE. She was once especially when they first debuted and for the first 3-4 years, she was very overlooked because the company placed her in the back. However, ever since time for the moon night and sunrise, things shifted with the hush performance back in 2019 and her popularity exploded in Korea. She's mostly always in the top 10 or top 30 for brand reputation. Her popularity has grown more since apple released and she's like the 3rd most followed member on instagram amongst all the gfriend members. She's now one of the most popular members especially in Korea and is getting more regarded for her visual (not so much still but is getting there).
    Edit: Also this woman deserves SO much praise. She is the most selfless person I've ever seen. She never complains about not getting enough lines to sing, or being put in the back, or not having the same amount of solo gigs as her members. She happily gives the members their spotlight even if she doesn't get anything from it, and thats what we call a damn good leader.

    • @coolgirl123452
      @coolgirl123452 4 года назад +62

      @MiniButterfly Look at her apple fancams. Her mago fancams are lower this time, but she's still getting 50-60k on some of them. If instagram numbers don't count, then so shouldn't fancams. Also they don't have the same amount on ig. Sowon has 700k. Umji, sinb, and yuju all have 600k something. Yerin and eunha have a bit more than 730k. There is a huge difference if we're talking about numbers. She's easily one of the popular members atleast in Korea for sure. She always tops brand rep more than any of the gfriend members. She stayed in top 10 for like months this year and last year.

    • @pinkpanadalove2387
      @pinkpanadalove2387 4 года назад +16

      @MiniButterfly Fancams can help gauge popularity, and yeah sowons are often low, but they're not bulletproof. You never know what kind of fanam will go viral at random. Sometimes very popular members fancams don't get a lot either.
      Sowon herself may also be refusing work since she's kinda shy/ introverted. Maybe she likes being with her members.

    • @coolgirl123452
      @coolgirl123452 4 года назад +63

      @MiniButterfly Most of the members never do ads or work with other brands individually. They do get called on shows, but sowon was literally the host of a beauty show all of 2018-2019. She just recently mc'ed animal farm. The brand reputation is based on the data collected in various indexes including participation (brands the celebrity has participated in/product consumption), media (media marketing worth), communication (ability to communicate with public) , and community (community’s perception of them/social marketing worth) to determine their brand reputation. It’s essentially a ranking published by organizations in Korea that reflects how much (traditional + social) media buzz a group member has had in the past month so it kind of matters, and sowon tops it. In terms of fancam, I've seen the most popular members get the least views. Most people enjoy watching fancams of the main dancer or main vocalist anyways. Like I said, I genuinely don't think she's unpopular. Yes sometimes in the gfriend comments people don't talk about her, but sowon stans I've noticed are just more chill and quiet. I've also seen comments by korean fans who have said she's one of the most popular members in korea, they know more than we do tbh.

      @MiniButterfly "No one talks abt Sowon , gfriends own comments barely even mention her" ??? This was exactly what solo stan doing in the comments .. I must say Yuju Stan dominated all the comments section, I even barely saw comments abt Eunha and Yerin who's even more popular than Yuju. Yuju Stan are active in RUclips. This is my explanation. Not all Buddy are Ot6 but the most obvious Solo Stan is Yuju Stan , as you can see all gfriend contents flooded with her name only

    sowon has very long limbs, so naturally i think she would be thinner. she can’t help that. people think weight is something that’s so easy to deal with when it’s not, it’s completely different for everyone.
    sowon has long limbs, so any weight gain isn’t that noticebale. whereas for me, i’m 5’2 and my limbs aren’t that long so weight gain is noticeable. it’s hard for her to gain, it’s hard for me to maintain. everyone is different. i hope people become nicer and more considerate towards these idols and take more into consideration. also, these companies really need to learn how to deal with taller idols and different body types. that’s where a lot of these problems come from i think.

      Agreed. I actually relate to the thinner idols more because I was always super skinny growing up until people shamed me for being *too* skinny. I've never been "fat" or chubby or anything, but I def put on some weight to the point that my proportions look off, and I'm currently working on losing that weight I gained. Being bullied for being too skinny is just as hurtful as being bullied for being too fat.

I hate that she was forced to gain weight and change because I also have her body type and look up to her. It's never talked about, but extremely thin idols are often pushed to change or are cast aside as punishment for their natural bodies. You can't preach about loving yourself if you shame the other end of the spectrum too. I love you Sowon! You make me feel better about myself.

    For people who are confuse about the popularity :
    Sowon and Umji is the least popular during debut era, Umji was because people are questioning her beauty (which is ridiculous) while Sowon was basically got called "Talentless visual".
    But this was in the past, ever since 2019 Sowon have been gaining a lot of popularity. She hosted a beauty show, win an award, make her debut as a model, getting more lines and more. Even now she got a new job as MC. Shows are calling her more often now, and wants her to be their guest. In 2019 there's a poll in Korea where they vote who's the most popular member in korea (including other groups) and Sowon was ranked in top 3.
    Sowon also got acknowledge for her beauty , she's the top 3 Korean beauty u know😂.
    Ever since then, Sowon have always got into korean news for her beauty. She's quite famous there. She begin to have lots of solo activities now
    But popularity isn't everything, I hope people won't try to compare this and that.

    if you look at sowon's face, it's obvious that her body and weight are not a product of extreme dieting. i never actually noticed her weight change over the years, but i think their style has changed a lot, especially in MAGO. her outfits for MAGO really look good on her, like the flare pants and all that complement her body well in my opinion.

    She is so stunning- you can go back to debut era where she was actually praised for being pretty. Kids and men would say whose the prettiest and not only the members but fans would pick Sowon. Sowon is actually my ultimate bias and I think she is a great person overall not only for her looks and voice but for her actions. She was pushed down so much, not only by media and her kids of family. But the fact that she got up and proved haters wrong by being top three in korean for beauty is crazy. She was even won a award in sunrise era for being so stunning.
    I know how people can fat shame but people always forget that people can get shamed for being to skinny.

    Sowon is not only a great leader but also a great older sister for the members. In fact she is one of the best leaders I have ever seen. She has good leadership and cares about the members. It doesn't matter what the public say about her figure. She is indeed thin but she is healthy, and it's what matters the most 🙌

    She’s lucky to be able to eat without gaining weight. I was like that too but when I reached 29 y.o , I started gaining weight.. i wish my body did not changed. I guess for me, as I aged, my metabolism slowed down.

    it is ridiculous, if the idol is thin the netizens go there and say that she is too thin if the idol gets fat, they point the finger and say that the idol is fat (even if the idol is thin). This is so toxic, people think they have a right to someone's body and can barely look at themselves in the mirror.

  • @shuahae5265
    @shuahae5265 3 года назад +2

    Ppl need to understand that gaining weight is just as hard as losing weight. As someone who barely gains weight, we rly have to push ourselves to eat way beyond our limits and feel like throwing up after every meal in order to gain a pound or two. Eating much more than ur body usually likes is tough and most cases eating more doesn't even have an effect on ur body🤦 ppl rly need to stop with the body shaming just let them be??

    Sowon is my ult bias since debut and honestly I've never read comments about people hating on her weight instead i saw people praising her for her perfect body proportions and her long leg .. it's either i was too ignorant for those hate comments or it's not that serious, but in this video I saw sowon commenting on that makes me feel guilty, I've been her stan for years yet I only know about this just now. My cousin is the same with her, they're both tall and thin, but my cousin is so healthy and maybe that's why I don't really care about her weight instead I really admire her for that and her stamina. She's beautiful no matter what! She's Sophrodite!! But yeah I do know that people used to bash her in the earlier years saying she's the black hole and have no stage presence but look at her now , her beauty is so ethereal that haters now have shut up seeing gfriend's visuals. Gfriend is one of those group who keeps improving so no matter what the haters say, I'm a BUDDY FOREVER!
    P/s: she do have solo schedules especially after being an mc for trend with me, she even received award for beauty something .. I'm glad people recognize her as sowon gfriend now.

    You can literally tell from her body type too that she's not underweight that's just her natural frame because her legs don't look tapered at all and her skin looks fine. Instead, she has that sort of stretch effect that very tall (Especially girls) have. People just open their mouths without thinking.

    5:14 That one netizen comment comparing her to Jihyun from 4Minute had me triggered, especially when I was a hardcore 4Nia back in the day.
    All blame is to be directed towards the company. They’re both very beautiful and are just as up there as their members. Companies hardly put any attention to members who are seen as the least popular... until very late into their career. That’s what happened to Jihyun and then the disbandment occurred. 😓

    I swear to god everyone and this video is typing in 2017. How is Sowon the least popular member? Yes, she was before but now? Gfriend has been one of the most balanced group in terms of popularity. You can’t really pick a member that is least popular, they all have equal popularity. Sowon has been gaining popularity back in Sunrise era and has been getting more and more popular. Yes, Sowon was pushed to the back by SouMu during the beginning eras, but that’s because Sowon needed to gain confidence to actually shine on stage. However after Gfriend all solidify themselves as idols, the members all equally shined on stage.

    You guys know that Sowon is constantly on top of the other members in individual Brand Ranking in SK right? She’s only challenged by SinB and sometimes Eunha. The ones that are at the bottom are YERIN and Yuju. She had her own solo program, model runaway, solo stages, her unit song with Umji is also leading in streams above the other units and she’s highly acclaimed by kpop stans that don’t think hating GFriend makes them “cool”, Sowon IS popular. She has never complained about her figure (maybe about her height, yes), she is naturally skinny and you can see her bones and ribs don’t show because clearly she eats a lot, it’s just her body type. This video is so misleading.

  • @katet8639
    @katet8639 4 года назад +1

    You can clearly see because of her body type that she is naturally skinny but honestly, it's just her arms and legs that make her look very skinny. Her torso looks normal and it's not like her bones are sticking out like some idols. I know a lot of people like her, long legs, short torso and sometimes tall. Kinda reminds me of Tiffany from SNSD, she isn't tall but her torso is short and her legs are long for her height but she also has like a wider waist like Sowon. I would rather be like them than having short legs and long torso, height doesn't matter to me but I can't see how people be so mean about her. She is literally a supermodel to me.
    Also, I don't know but I don't really think Sowon is so unpopular.
