Dazed is a popular magazine known for featuring famous celebrities. In a recent issue, one (G)I-DLE member made it on Dazed 100 this year as the only Korean artist on the list.
Can you guess who she is?
It followed by a piece of Soyeon's interview from Teen Vogue, in which the (G)I-DLE leader expressed her thoughts on how rare it was for female idols to compose during their pre-debut days.
"Before debuting, it was rare for female idols to learn composition, so when I said I wanted to compose and produce, everyone thought it was strange."
- Soyeon
Furthermore, journalist Taylor Gatsby described her as a divisive idol and songwriter, laying out opportunities for learning curves. It also mentioned how Soyeon is opening closed doors for future female idols, giving them more opportunities regarding inspiration, open creativity, and song composition.
"Since striding on to the world stage, she's been divisive as an idol and writer, her still-ascending career peppered with steep learning curves and creative speed bumps. But, more so, it's one of wild ambition and ground-breaking triumphs. Soyeon is kicking down long-guarded doors for generations of women K-pop idols yet to come."
