Here, the netizen included a photo of NMIXX, where Sullyoon stood at the center while the members all posed for a photo. The netizen then compared the photo to another photo that had been taken on the same day, but one where Jinni stood at the center this time.

Netizens commented:

"Jinni as the center really feels safe."

"When Jinni comes to the center, the group's image really does become clearer."

"To think of NMIXX without Jinni...the fact that a lot of people are saying they hope Jinni goes to YG just shows how she would have soared high if she was styled in a more trendy way...Please let her redo her celebrity [career]."

"It's really different [with Jinni as the center]."

"NMIXX...is over..."

"When NMIXX first debuted, Jinni was revealed as the center [member] TTT. Then, I don't know why this suddenly changed."

"Wow, it's very obviously different [with Jinni as the center]."

"That photo is so cute. The members gave up the center space for Jinni because she was so excited over their award."
