Who should've been removed from the BABYMONSTER lineup

[Liran 李兰]

Honestly I feel like babymonster should've been a 4 member group. While I love the lineup, I feel like less is more, and the members that don't shine also don't really contribute as much (YG's fault). So, I would've done the lineup like this:

P01. Ahyeon Jung
Leader, Lead Vocalist, Lead Rapper, Lead Dancer, Center

Ahyeon is a solid pick. She has both consistent popularity in k-fans and i-fans, especially since she took a hiatus. Her skills are well developed.

P02. Ruka Kawai
Main Rapper, Main Dancer, Sub Vocalist

Ruka is the member from the Japanese line which I'd have chosen. She's a great rapper and dancer which Asa also is. However, Ruka is more popular and is the only trainee from BABYMONSTER/ Last Evaluation who did not specialise in vocals so the other three members could have vocal parts.

P03. Pharita Chaikong
Main Vocalist, Sub Rapper, Visual, Face of the Group

Pharita is one of the more unique singers in BABYMONSTER as she is able to use her own vocal tone to hit high notes. She has consistent popularity, less than Chiquita but in my opinion was more ready to debut.

P04. Rami (Haram) Shin
Main Vocalist, Lead Dancer, Maknae

Rami is another talented vocal in BAEMON and seems to be consistently utilised in songs. She was the member between her and Asa in which I chose Rami.

What will happen to...?
- YG was planning on saving asa for a Japanese gg for yg
- rora could've been saved for a 5th gen girl group
- Chiquita could've waited until she was older to debut

Imo there are members who definitely shine more bcs they were chosen to stand out, ykwim, but honestly all of them have different assets to them. all though i completely disagree with your opinion on the positions and some of the statements made, i understand what you’re saying about the number of members bcs imo 5 is the most ppl a group should have.

I most definitely agree I have been saying this from the start but I disagree with your lineup. YG is always copying Blackpink head to toe with babymonster (even though it’s clearly not working) he should have just done it with 4 members people would call them copycats anyways. In my opinion I would of chose 6 members being

1 . Ahyeon all rounder they just need to work on her vocal tone and she needs to stop rapping cause her English pronunciation is terrible like Ruka’s. And they need to stop forcing her to act like Jennie cause it’s clear that’s what ahyeon and yg are doing. But overall she’s a really good trainee hard to come across and she has the appeal

2. Chiquita she is way more vocally skilled than Pharita by miles, by dance and everything and the little Lisa thing she has going brings popularity to the group she could have ruled Thailand after Lisa. They also need to give her her bangs back her visuals went down after they chopped them off which was STUPID of them I feel like they did that on purpose predebut Chiquita was extremely popular they didn’t want her outshining ahyeon they needed a Korean member to be more popular.

3 . Rora is actually really boring to me nothing about her excites me with jisoo she had humor and her love for video games rora is just boring it’s like she’s trying to hard. And her visuals are not all that maybe it’s her nose but her visuals are very basic, predebut Chiquita and now ahyeon look way better than her. I just put her in the group cause she has a good voice and she fills the jisoo role and we need another Korean in the group and people overate her visuals because they want a fifth gen top visual so bad, I think she just needs a nose job and better makeup she would be good.
4. Rami also needs a nose job she has a yam on her face other than that pretty girl they need to brand her off as rose and stop trying to overshadow her with ahyeon getting all the damn singing parts it’s tired. Rami is an amazing vocalist and is genuinely funny and with a nose job her popularity would increase tremendously they need to really make her the little rose and dye and style her blonde hair better, she looks better with long hair.
6. Asa in the past Blackpink not 2ne1 were as popular in Japan as gg like twice who have Japanese members. Asa would be a valuable card plus she’s pretty too her surgeries now look good her veneers etc she needs to gain some weight she’s a little too skinny and she needs to keep her long straight her and she also just needs some better makeup and she’ll go far. She’s An amazing rapper literally and is main dancer material she’s way better than ruka in my opinion Asa is sharp with her dancing. And she would be the best rapper in this group along with ahyeon who needs more practice and Chiquita.

And yg should have waited to show them after they did their surgery so the visuals would go crazy and match. These girls need better songs, makeup, and styling all of their things now are dated. They sound and look like a nugu group and since it’s so many of them it’s seems like all of them are always fighting for center/screen time and attention that’s why they try to outsing each other. Meovv is what Blackpink predecessors should of been babymonster was a disappointment

Chiquita is not miles ahead vocally by Pharita. Here are some clips where Pharita shows proof that her vocals skills are similar to Chiquitas.
