Netizens are discussing why Sullyoon shouldn't be the center of NMIXX

Netizens are discussing why Sullyoon shouldn't be the center of NMIXX.

On an online forum, netizens curiously talked about the position of Sullyoon in the group concerning the fixed order in which the members stand. With Sullyoon occupying the center spot, netizens have taken note of her eye-catching visuals, which set her apart and draw considerable attention, sometimes to the detriment of her fellow members.

Looking at their old and recent group photos, they commented that when Sullyoon assumes the center position, her magnetic presence tends to overshadow the other members, whose appeal seems to "diminish."


Some labeled the phenomenon as the group becoming "Sullyoon And The Girls," giving the impression that the remaining members are merely 'supplementary additions.'

However, some upvoted comments advocated for Sullyoon as the center precisely because focusing on one standout member has become a common strategy for groups to gain popularity in today's competitive landscape.

At the same time, others contended that this positioning makes the other members appear as if they are ordinary high school students posing for a photo with Sullyoon, the sole celebrity in the frame.


Reactions include:


"That's precisely why Sullyoon should be the center. In reality, idol groups typically have one standout member, with the rest providing support."

"Sullyoon seems to steal all the limelight, leaving the others looking like high schoolers posing with a celebrity."

"Kyujin and Bae need to switch places..."
"I only see Sullyoon..."

"They look like a solo artist + backup dancers"

"Am I the only who sees Jiwoo? I think she has such great facial features"
"Wow...Sullyoon is so pretty. Especially in a group photo."
"It's Sullyoon And The Idols even if she doesn't stand at the center..."
"Yeah, but omg what's with their fashion"
"But isn't this kind of issue the same thing with Jang Won Young And The Girls in IVE?"

"It's the height difference issue in NMIXX, too, I think..."
"I don't think J.Y. Park will ever just highlight one visual center after what happened with Miss A and Suzy..."
"Omg...Sullyoon should become a luxury brand ambassador"

I don't think she stands out that much. They're all quite pretty. What I do think is that JYP needs a better stylist for those girls. Some of those outfits really aren't flattering.

The "solo artist plus backup dancers" doesn't seem to apply here, it's not like they've given her an amazing outfit every time while the other members are in the same muted color like other groups have done. I don't think she gets too many lines or even too much screen time either.
