Often, a K-pop female group has one or two members who are the official main visuals. But STAYC recently became a hot topic online after the members proved they are all worthy for the main visual role!
Here's what happened.
STAYC Earns Admiration for Upgraded Visuals Following 'We Need Love' Comeback
On July 19, STAYC dropped their third single album "WE NEED LOVE" along with its title track "BEAUTIFUL MONSTER," their first release in about five months.
Shortly after the release, it topped the music charts and entered the charts for all songs, and the music video surpassed 30 million views in less than a week.
As the group continues their "WE NEED LOVE" activities with various music broadcasts and colorful content, STAYC once again became a hot topic for their unrivaled visuals.
Since debut, STAYC has always been praised for being a group with "all-rounder members"— six vocalists, visuals, dancers and rappers.

But following their appearance on SBS "Inkigayo" on June 24, viewers became convinced that STAYC is in their visual glory days.
On an online community, the original uploader wrote, "STAYC's visual condition is at its best." The post contains the members' individual photos from the PD Note of the music show.
As soon as the post was uploaded, it immediately became a hot topic with over 105k views and about 300 likes.
In the comments section, people were leaving praises such as:
- "J, you are so pretty"
- "How come they are also so pretty, Sieun looks like Park Bo Young."
- "Personally, I think STAYC doesn't have a visual hole, everyone is just so pretty."
- "Seeun, Isa, your visuals are crazy."
- "Sumin and Sieun are definitely living their glorious days right now. Yoon doesn't have her weird hat so she looks way more fresh and pretty. J, Isa and Seeun are always as pretty."
- "All six of them are so pretty when usually there is just one or two in a group that is exceptionally pretty. They're the main visuals. They're all 4th generation visuals. STAYC is pretty, so we all have different opinions (who the main visual is). It's really hard to mention (if who's) the 4th generation visuals (among members)."
STAYC Breaks Personal Best Record After Surpassing 200k First Week Sales With 'We Need Love'
Amid praises for their visuals and skills, STAYC also cemented their status as a "power group" after achieving their own best record.
On July 26, Hanteo Chart announced that STAYC's third single "WE NEED LOVE" recorded 201,072 initial sales (July 19 to July 25). This is well above the initial sales (153,301) of the second mini-album "YOUNG-LUV COM" released in February.
STAYC, who has continued their cascading growth by breaking the initial sales of each album, proved their expanded global status once again through this record.
With their latest release, STAYC showed more mature musical capabilities with solid singing skills by having "all main vocalists."
In particular, the title track "BEAUTIFUL MONSTER" is a song that captures the fear behind love with the explosive vocals of six members.
STAYC, loved for their unique and attractive point choreography in every activity, is causing intense addiction with their "Beaumon Dance" featuring beautiful lines and hand movements.
