In an interview, Black Eyed Pilseung (the producer of most TWICE songs) revealed that Nayeon is always given the opening parts as she possesses the freshest and bubbliest voice out of TWICE members. And as a basic rule, members that are the main or lead vocalists tend to be given the first line in songs in order to capture listeners' attention.
