i honestly think jihyo has one of the best stage presences in the industry. she has never lost passion after all these years, and i have never seen her give anything less than her best.
I still remember during ICSM lives, even though choreography is not that easy she still tries to sing all her lines and be louder than backtrack. Similar with MM. Truly a precious idol.
watching her first performance with talk that talk, u wouldn't think she had just recovered from covid. the girl always gives 110% when she performs and never slacks off despite some difficult circumstances... a literal god i tell u
my girl jihyo literally always gives her 100% every single performance. even just a few days before, having just come back from her short break because of miss rona, she didn't lose her energy nor her presence. that woman is a literal _beast_ i tell you
Bestie not me without even hearing Cheryl mention Jihyo thinking like "Where is Roxie because I know for sure Jihyo's here" She's THAT good lol Also can I call you Roxie? Or you can give me your name lol, you call me by name, it's fair if I call you by a name too (I can't keep calling you by your username forever lol)
@@velvetieyuri LMAO yeah best believe that when someone's praising my girl, you'll find me in the comments hyping her up im ok with being called roxy, but u can also call me by my nickname cher. im fine with both honestly 😂
God, Jihyo in Alcohol-Free was a like a LITERAL goddess. She was so beautiful and just a little flirty and had an all-around magical vibe up there. Every time I watch her fancams I take notes on what she does with her eyes, her body language, and the way she kind of acts along with whatever songs she's performing. It's amazing how she only gets better through the eras. And her versatility, my god. She can do anything from cute and sweet for most of Twice's music and then Perfect World and her performance project came out. Oh my god, she's so good at more intense stuff as well. As a performer she's kind of my role model lmao.
I'm not even into preforming but I genuinely look up to her in some ways. She's just hardworking and passionate about what she does. And super professional, even when she had panic attack or insomnia she still gave great preformances.
This right here. Never really looked forward to fancams until I saw her Alcohol-Free fancam, esp the one with the scarf top and white bellbottom outfit. She was glowing in a way that you could tell she was feeling the music.
I feel like so many people forgot about Seungyeon. She’s consistently been such an INSANE performer throughout CLC’s run. She has not been given her flowers by the kpop community at large and I really am happy to see her being recognized as the performance standard she is. God I miss CLC.
whats crazy is that seungyeon is so charismatic and talented yet the other girls (especially yeeun) aren't overshadowed by her on stage like they're so in sync with each other
He has the perfect balance. He never does too much or less than necessary. He is never really extreme with facial expressions unless the occasion calls for it
The second she started talking about an underappreciated male idol with amazing stage presence I was like "GIRL YOU BETTER SAY HWANWOONG!". I'm happy that she understands his talent.
One of the things that makes HyunA more impressive than Jennie is that HyunA is just permanently a soloist at this point. So, where Jennie has the ability to fade into the background while Lisa and/or Rosé take over the stage (in order to catch her breath), HyunA is the center of attention throughout the entirety of the performance. She unfortunately doesn’t have the ability to take a moment and catch her breath. That’s molded her into a more refined performer because she knows that she can’t overperform or she’ll faint. And for a dominant-charismatic performer, that’s the key to success! Since I’m positive that Jennie will do more solo activities in the future, I’m sure that she’ll follow a similar path and become just as amazing as HyunA! 🙌
That's why a lot of idols can be AMAZING in a group and not shine as much as a soloist, as a soloist you need to be 100% during the entire performance. You can't just relax for a few minutes when other members do their part, you need to be drawing attention 100% of the time. That's why HyunA is so great as a performer, her energy and charisma never goes down. I noticed it more and more during Nayeon Solo Pop, you could see that in some catchy part she was there 100%, but sometimes she was relaxing and not performing 100%. It was minimal and comprehensible, but you can see that even though she slayed, she is part of a group and a very cohesive one. On the other end, when you're in a group you need to fade into the background when it's other members part, or else you'll be accused of being an attention seeker, and you'll break that dynamic. Idols that are great at that are Nayeon, Jennie, and WY for example.
@@jessicajessica4392 Even though I think that Nayeon is one of the few Twice members able to make it as a soloist, she definitely has a bit of growth to do in order to be accustomed to performing on her own. But if anyone can do it, it’s Nayeon!
@@Nameless_mixes Nayeon is definitely in the TOP 2 performer of Twice along with Jihyo, she still has some growth to do to perform on her own, but she honestly own POP. It's an impressive debut as a soloist, and the song relies purely on her charisma during the performance, especially the chorus. Another member I am waiting to see solo is Jihyo, she is a beast of a performer and her energy seems endless haha.
Even during 4minute Hyuna was pretty much centre with occasionally Jiyoon. So I agree that other members tend to stand out especially since Lisa is a great dancer plus Rose is a singer so they stood out. Rose is my bias. So I agree with u on that
@@jessicajessica4392 i remember that Nayeon said that Pop is ranked just behind More and More in terms of how tiring it is! It definitely ties into what you said about her energy level going down a bit during some parts
the way my jaw DROPPED at the hwangwoong reveal 😭 it never occurred to me that people don't know him when he's this captivating to watch. Thank you for mentioning him!!
Hwanwoong and Oneus in general are so underrated not only when it comes to stage presence but as a group in general. I really hope they get more recognition soon because they deserve it
Their discography is a masterpiece, like they have something for everyone and it's hard to believe not many people have even heard of them. I love their music and I'm trying to stan them because of it
TAEMIN is a completely different breed for me. I can't forget the day I discovered him. I was mesmerized, flabbergasted, stunned, hypnotized, enchanted, (insert adjectives)..., simply just watching him on the screen. He exudes such powerful aura that you can't escape but only gets more drawn to it and there's no way out ;) He is the only artist/performer I admire after MJ (i'm a huge fan of mj). And only TAEMIN has the aura that MJ had to dominate the stage, to command the attention of the audience. No one in the industry comes close to Taemin. And never will I fear.
When I think of the term stage presence, I always think of Mamamoo. Not only are they insanely talented and can operate well with their facial expressions, but they also command the crowd really well. They always perform as if it were their concert, and can transfer their energy onto their crowd. This is why Mamamoo are my ults when it comes to stage presence
I don't remember the details but Taemin once said that when he learns choreography he just doesn't copy the moves but he thinks about what the choreographer wanted to convey with the move and try to express that. Also, as much as I love your serious videos, it's so nice hearing you talk about things you love. I very much enjoy your content.
Taemin almost immediately became my ult bias because of his stage presence and natural ability to perform! I was hooked the first time I saw him perform.
Surprisingly all 3 male idols that are mentioned here are not clear masculine performers. There's definitely something about male feminine or masculine-feminine performers they're just unbeatable. And I'd really like to hear what you think about nct's Ten bcs it's always been so so fascinating to look at him for me. tysm for this video❤️
Apart from stage presence, another reason why Jihyo's dancing is almost as talked about as that of top dancers like Momo is that Jihyo's dancing is comparable to hers now. This may not have been the case when they debuted but watch Jihyo and Momo's recent dance fancams side by side and you'll get what I'm tryna tell. Jihyo has grown so much as a dancer. Ultimately it boils down to the person's mindset. Healthy competitiveness is prolly what made her the ace. Won't be surprised if she starts spitting bars like a main rapper someday out of nowhere xD
Taemin understands that performance is sensory storytelling perfectly that's why the famous "Taemin's genre" Taemin performs better than anyone else not because of music nor dance nor vocals nor lyrics nor style but all of them, your sister is right and i believe taemin sees himself as a medium to convey the music, i've seen him talking in interview once saying that's he's studying theatrical art to know exactly which movement convey which emotion and my god my respect for him went skyrocket on knowing that. He understands the science behind the art and that's my friend is the genius of him.
Jihyo always amazes me, i’ve been following Twice since their debut and i can’t name a single performance where she didn’t give her 100%. Watching her and her story of training 10 years is truly inspirational.
thank you sososo much for talking about hwanwoong, most people forget he exists and how talented he is. When I saw him on road to kingdom I couldn't believe how he dominated the stage in every concept they threw at him
I didn't follow Izone and I didn't know anything about Yujin before IVE debuted. That girl is just great and she's still young. Natural facial expressions, confidence on stage and with her moves also amazing ability to catch attention even when she's not in the centre. I hope she won't tone down her preforming even more, since people are accusing her of "overshadowing" ever since Eleven.
afaik she hasnt performed eleven the same way she did during the first few weeks of promotion because knetz told her to tone it down ☹️ i miss seeing her intensity during the 1234567 *bite*
@@idowuajayi8721 she's my bias too! one tip from another yujin stan is to refrain from looking at comment sections 🥲 im so glad that this channel is one of the very few safe spaces for yujin stans on youtube lol
I’m glad you mentioned Hwanwoong in this video! I think precise is a good way to describe both his dance style and his stage presence. He’s had everything on lock since his debut tbh. I think it’s interesting that you also described Taemin as precise because, as far as I know, Taemin is (one of?) Hwanwoong’s biggest idols. I think he’s been (indirectly) learning from Taemin as long as he’s been training and performing
the thing with jihyo is that even i don’t like the song, her performance makes me enjoy the music as well. also with San, he does overdance but I think it fits with ateez and I’m glad he’s on this list!!
@@emmylia it’s not in a bad way 😭. san is my ult and I admire the way he dances but in some cases he can dance quite excitedly, how many mics has he broken? 😭 nonetheless it fits ateez and I’m glad he’s performing how he wants to.
Some idols are a pure GIFT to watch. They LOVE it and give it their all. It doesn’t feel rehearsed or robotic and regardless whether you even like their group or the song, you will enjoy the performance because of them. THAT is what I call a good performer.
so true about what you said about san! he's just so captivating as a performer that you can never not notice him. and what makes it even better, like you said, he truly enjoys and is super passionate about what he does and that helps him to perform so naturally like he's doing his daily things. that really helps him to immerse himself in the song and the lyrics amd he embodies every concept given to him so incredibly. he's truly an icon and the standard, he's on his own league when it comes to stage presence
Jihyo is amazing, when I saw her live, I could feel her energy and passion for performance. That stage was on fire. I just couldn't believe it. I wasn't even sitting that close at all, but I could feel her energy from wherever. Just truly an amazing performer. I love her style of performance, she's really the complete package. Just so happy she's better and back, I was worried about her
every time i think of a good kpop performer, jihyo is always the first to come to mind. i love twice but she truly stands out. her energy, her dance moves, her voice, everything is just perfect and i just feel she's never lacking. she's truly made for the stage and i love to see she loves what she's doing!
Jihyo is the whole package. I adore that woman so much. She deserves every minute she spends on the stage doing what she loves. I think she's a true storyteller and really considers each song's energy and story and conveys so much. It's why I love watching her just as much on stages like Cry For Me and Perfect World as I do the happy, bubbly Twice concepts. It's struck me more than once that Jihyo would be as entrancing to watch as a hula or belly dancer as she is as a kpop idol.
When you started talking about an idol, that is not that well known, but has amazing stage presence my mind immediately went to Hwanwoong! But I thought there was no chance he would be in here, because I haven't seen him in any of your other videos. Well... THANK YOU!!! He really deserves much more recognition than he gets!
OMG ONEUS YES. They are so underrated 😭 their discography is top tier, the members are so talented and hwanwoong one of the best performers so true. I hope they get recognized more. also their new cb teasers are out guys check them out omg
yujin praise 😭🫂🫂🫂🫂 anyway i was a yujin stan since pd48 (she's two years older than me we basically grew up tgt lmao) because she had this INTENSE desire to improve and get better at anything. when she performed gangsta with chaeyeon and yena, i KNEW she's going to be an insane performer when she reaches 18. she's like a ticking time bomb. few months later she had a viral fancam because of sequence, an izone bside that doesn't sound remotely close to any izone title track which made her stand out (seriously go watch all the fancams). finally, ive came around and it's like the bomb had exploded. she was a different performer. you can see the experience in every move, but she's also just starting. im so so SO excited for her future.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!! I WAS SO SO HAPPY TO SEE SEUNGYEON AND HWANWOONG IN THIS LIST WE STAN!!! They are CRIMINALLY underrated, THANK YOU so much for spreading the word and showing them to your audience, I hope more people get to know and love them.
Of course I also agree with the other mentions and love these idols! And thank you again for putting the positive examples in the forefront, I love that.
Yaasss I‘m so happy you talked about Hwanwoong, this guy is the most fascinating idol I‘ve seen in a looong time! And ironically enough at first it was because of his cheeks 😅 I knew a few oneus songs but didn’t really pay attention to them until they dropped lit 🔥 and in one of the first scenes they start dancing Hwanwoong is the center (the infamous gaja parts 😅) and his cheeks poke out in a way mine sometimes do, which I don’t like at all. So I was a little annoyed by his presence but lit being the bomb it is I listened to it over and over again and I was subconsciously always drawn to him to point I was explicitly looking for hin! I had to check his kpop profil, I watched road to kingdom because of him, like he threw the bait and I ATE it! He’s so captivating and expressive and even though oneus as a group are amazing he’s the one that comes to my mind instantly when oneus is mentioned! This dude ruined me, I wasn’t that infatuated with someones stage presence since taemin 😩 and off stage he’s the sweetest little pumpkin, like HOW?! Bye, I‘ll go cry in the corner ❤️❤️❤️ Oh and also HyunA, she’s amazing and in my early kpop days when I didn’t know much about it I thought the rest of 4 minute were her backup dancers 🙀 which just shows how good she is, but makes me sad at the same time because if I remember correctly there were problems within the group because of jealousy etc..
From the first time I saw Taemin, even before I knew his name was that and who he was as an idol, I have always thought "oh so this is basically MJ" in all the good connotations that that sentence implies. He is one with the stage in a way that I have only seen with MJ and Taemin is so good that it scares me. Idols of idols for a reason
@@brennathecatlover4360 i have no idea since I don't really follow him or Shinee, but the point is that it was the first thing I thought cause he is that good ahahah
So... That means that MJ was a female overt dominant sensual performer? (Sorry, since I start seeing Cheryl videos about stage presence I was thinking about MJ stage presence)
Yelled when you said Hwanwoong! He’s my bias in ONEUS for a reason, he just has this essence in the way he moves that is so captivating. I don’t know female dancers as well, but each male dancer I was like yes, of course, amazing all of them.
For me miss Chungha is also a standard. I mean she is so versatile, and she's good with both facial expressions and body language, you can see she is enjoying the stage in almost every, if not every single performance
Oneus are such great performers, I always enjoy watching hwanwoong. he’s probably the best at facial expressions in 4th gen, he doesn’t do too much, but the right amount. But they are so underrated
Cheryl: Look at him (San) Me: Sweetie I look at him everyday. Great video as always and thanks for including Hwanwoong, he is the reason I got into Oneus and no one talks about him!
whenever i hear this stage presence word, jihyo automatically comes to my mind.. her fancams are so satisfying to watch.. she is really an amazing and powerful performer.. and she is so beautiful..
I love watching Jihyo perform, in literally every fancam, every concept, she gives 200% and that's why she's my bias. Love this channel so much, people need to listen to your opinions more
Hyuna is literally who made me love kpop thanks to her stage presence, watching her during the babe and lip and hip era made me stan her literally that exact moment
Hwanwoong is just such an amazing performer and it's crazy. The power this man carries in his tiny body is just unbelievable. Oneus as a group is amazing and to be able to stand out in a group like that is even more remarkable. Leedo is an honorable mention too. That man is a beast
I'm so happy to see Seungyeon here, what made me fall for CLC was exactly the way she controls the stage, her confidence is so exciting, like the moment she's the center of attention she just makes you want to watch her perform. I also think that her group member Yeeun is a very strong performer, more elegant and refined than Seungyeon who is more dominant and powerful in my opinion, but also commanding. And I also truly feel like hyuna just doesn't care if she doesn't look as good sometimes and I love it, like there's facial expressions she uses that just go so well with her message or song, but are not really what a kpop agency would call flatering. I remember PSY even made her change some facial expressions in I'm not cool because he said that she looked like she was swearing.
San immediately caught my attention the first time I saw an ateez performance years back. I thought he was the main dancer. Was shocked to find out that he wasn't. He has that Aura that captivates you almost instantly.
Aww I'm sooo glad you included hwanwoong because he's my fave since produce 101🥺 I also love his stage presence so much💗 personally my standard in stage presence is G-Dragon, that man knows how to carry himself on stage so well and his ability to command the stage? I diE everytime istg that man💀 He knows that he was born to perform on stage because he has always been vocal about his passion for performing, and it shows, a lot of 2nd gen fans noticed his genuineness. His strong magnetic aura and confidence is A+++ Tier. unfortunately he, and Big Bang, are still on hiatus (which is fine I don't really mind, they deserve to have a rest from the kpop industry) it's just that I miss seeing them perform on stage🥺😭 Regardless, he is still my Number/Top 1 out of ALL the kpop idols when it comes to stage presence, and so far no one has beaten him on my list yet💅 oh and some of my honorable mentions: CL, BTS' J-Hope, NCT's Yuta and Haechan, Twice's Jihyo, Soojin (former idle), Taemin,
Same!!! G-Dragon is my standard too and you know what's amazing? Is that he, in BigBang, the group known for stage presence because each members are just that amazing when performing each in their own way, and he still manages to stand out! He is just that good, he is born to be on stage! And you know he is good when CL fans and Hyuna fans quarrel to know who is "the female G-Dragon" on stage (saw it on 4Minute "Crazy" stage performance).
@@jasmeen5712 omg i remembered that whole "female G-dragon" war era during 2nd gen💀 Now that you mentioned it, it also amazes me that every member in bb are able to stand out on their own w/o overshadowing/overpowering one another, cause they're all equally good but still had their own style and color. They're monsters on stage🔥 gosh I miss them sm🥺💕
You're so right about Hwanwoong. From the way he's technically proficient, his energy and control, how he accentuates movement so that you see what he wants you to see, his facial expressions which are just right(cheeky, intense, fun), his confidence and the way you can tell he just loves performing. I can't help but smile watching him and sometimes I have to laugh at how insane he is. He is definitely one of the top performers in K-pop and the best of his generation.
Jihyo in the thumbnail of this as she should Every time I see twice bias ranking I get shocked.. Like how can jihyo be low.. Even before I hear her voice dance or anything her aura was just so attractive... Like she just makes you enjoy the performance as much as she's doing.. The thing I love about her is that she never shows any struggle or tiredness while performing she controls her facials until the end and give her best throughout her whole stage time.. You can tell she was born to be a star.. Amazing stable vocalist great dancer Nice and attractive performer she's a full package I love her even if am not a fan
@@gracefullychaos I don't stan twice but if I ever did I know who am gonna Stan and it can't be other than her.. Her energy really screams women power!!!! (am doing great how about you??
THANK YOU for recognizing my boys Taemin and Hwanwoong! A random UA-cam algorithm brought Taemin and then subsequently Kpop to me and honestly, I think he spoiled me because no other performer has come quite close enough. He’s captivating to watch with his little nuances. I watched an interview with him once in which he spoke about how he takes notice of how a slight change in his shoulder angle or eye glance makes all the difference for him. And he channels the music in his whole body. He’s just magic. And his concerts on UA-cam are amazing. Like 3 full hours of him holding the stage on his own. I have never seen another idol…I’ll just say it, “eye f***” the camera like he does (The Stage performance of Criminal ruins me every time. Also there’s an eye contact video sooooooo…) And Oneus is in my top 3 groups, so I’m so excited you mentioned them and my sweet pocket boy Hwanwoong! His facial expressions, as you said, are next level without being over the top. He’s actually covered some of Taemin’s stuff and looks up to him as a senior idol, which is always a bonus!
I would love to see your ranking of 2nd gen idols that fit the stage presence standard and your rubic! They don't get enough love, and 100% paved the way for the current popularity of kpop world-wide.
it’s the way i instantly knew you were going to talk about hwanwoong when i heard that the group was not popular😭 oneus are so great they honestly deserve more recognition
Jihyo is my standard, I love her so much, I watched videos of her performing Push & Pull and she ate it and made me want to be there so bad, she is my favorite performer ❤️
Justice for Hwanwoong man, he deserves so much more hype. That boy was WASTED on Produce 101, legit his performances were my favorite and it's criminial how underrated him and ONEUS are
i cant believe many dont know hwanwoong 😭 he is so magnetizing really. you can tell he’s born to perform, and enjoys doing it. i especially love him during Lit
Yes, we love positively based video! I feel like Jihyo spent all those 10 years just chomping at the bit to get out there and work as an idol, and now - once she's been given the chance - she's just Rocketing ahead, always giving 110%. She was made for this job, she loves this job, and she's always working hard on improving, to be even better. She's like "I give 110% in every performance? Those are rookie numbers! I want to give 150% in every performance!"
girl i think you should've mentioned hwanwoong more because i literally discovered ateez through you, because you mentioned san so many times in your stage presence ranking videos😩. i discovered hwanwoong & oneus by myself & my first thought was "i can't believe cheryl never mentioned hwanwoong... does she know him??" ahahahah...😁
Seungyeon was always ignored for her stage presence & dance when she was easily one of the most talented dancers in the 3rd gen! I love her & CLC so muchhhhh
I'M SO HAPPY HWANWOONG IS IN THIS. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST PERFORMERS IN KPOP. I GOT THE CHANCE TO SEE HIM LIVE AT A CONCERT AND HE CAPTIVATED ME. HIS STAGE PRESENCE IS ONE OF THE REASONS I DECIDED TO STAN ONEUS.
I smiled so wide when Hwangwoong appeared, people in general ignore Oneus while talking about such topics when they are one of the most charismatic groups out there. Him and Leedo are my favorite.
My ult of ults San (the chokehold he has on me!) and biases Jihyo and Yujin all on this list. I truly have a thing for performers and idols who look like they love what they're doing! Also so happy to see Hwangwoong on this list! The man is criminally underrated!
Someone remembering Hyuna is heart warming. She is a true performer even when she was her sickest she went out and give the performance of her live. She is loves the stage and it shows how much she enjoys what she does. Genuinely. Over the years with more freedom she got you can see how much happier she was with each comeback because it was her ideas and her vision on stage.
hwanwoong is SO AMAZING and im so happy you finally talked about him 😭 really wanted to see your analysis on him, i really hope people start paying attention to him and his group cause they deserve it so much
literally preaching the damn truth abut hwanwoong. i remember watching valkyrie stages and i literally couldnt take my eyes off him. hes incredible and expressive. hoping more people look into oneus!
Hwanwoong is such a darling on stage! I love watching him perform because it's like watching a musical every single time. ONEUS is one of my favorite groups because the majority of their members love doing what they do, and because of that, all of their songs slap on and off stage. TAEMIN IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL! I've heard the argument all the time of, "Oh, he's a 2nd Gen idol. He's had experience. That's why he's good as he is." That might be true, but the thing is...TAEMIN HAS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE HE DEBUTED! Him using Michael Jackson has his muse is actually not surprising to me (and I am one of the biggest Michael Jackson fans to exist), and I'm going to be frank. A lot of people who got rise in fame in the 2000's use MJ as their musical inspiration, but there are so few artists who can emulate MJ just as well as MJ while he was alive. Taemin is the closet Michael Jackson emulation I've ever seen. He can sing and dance close to the same level as the KING of Pop and that should tell you everything you need to know.
Thank you for talking about Hwanwoong! He works really hard on his stage presence and facial expressions (among other things) and he's insane to see live (all of Oneus just transforms when they perform) but seeing him do the openings for Lit and Comeback Home always give me chills.
Personally, one of my favorite performers is definitely Yeonjun from txt, i just find everything about his performances, especially what he does with his eyes and facial expressions, so captivating. He seems to always give 100% of his energy and abilities but also looks like he's having so much fun during performing, for both their brighter and darker songs. I feel like once he's on stage, it's very hard to take your eyes off him
I think as soon as Ahn Yujin went viral with IZ*ONE Sequence stages, Starship knew they finally hit the concept jackpot for IVE - a continuation and build up off IZ*ONE’s elegant yet sensual songs like Daydream, Ayayaya, Sequence, Mise En Scene, Highlight, etc. And I agree with you, none of the IVE members is truly a charismatic performer. I mean Wonyoung sorta had her charismatic eras during Produce 48 and early IZ*ONE days, but then she quickly gravitated towards the feminine sensual route. Heck even Yujin fooled me into thinking her had a charismatic side by utilizing her big baby doll eye-smile in every bright upbeat IZ*ONE stages. I think IVE consist of: Yujin: feminine overt sensual Gaeul: feminine covert dominant Rei: feminine covert dominant Wonyoung: feminine overt sensual Liz: feminine covert sensual LeeSeo: feminine covert dominant Even the dominant members are covert so their group harmony is not disturbed
I 1000000000% agree with Yeo Hwanwoong!!! I love Oneus and all the dances of Oneus I know I follow Hwanwoong because there's absolutely no way you can take your eye off him with how much presence he has. He is short but hold all the power, he cannot be lost within the members and knows how to give it. I also agree with Taemin, I was gonna say something if he wasn't in this list because I mean you can have the words "stage presence" without the definition being Lee Taemin. He's been that standard since 2008 and has just solidified the fact the more he performs. No matter how many idols I love, Taemin will always be my first pick when you talk about being the best performer.
Gurl in your post about toxic ateez fans their is person who thinks that you hate San because you said he over performance and then you drop this video lmaooo what a clowns 😭
@@aristocraft2000 I told him to watch this but he just replied me with "??"😂 He even mad that someone replied to him and called him "Gurl" Like he soo defensive and said "don't Misgender me in this comment" 💀
Oh my God!! 💜Thank you so much for including HWANGWOONG from Oneus!!! Everything you said about him,and all mentioned idols actually, is so accurate!👏🏻 Loved the video as usual!
Honestly it confuses me how people can say that Jihyo is overdoing anything. Especially when I see people who are praising her. She's the second best dancer in the group with strong body language, good facial expressions that aren't too much and consistent energy though the preformances. Not to mention she can fit any concept she's given.
I can tell she's one of the most balanced performers not even arguably.. When it's her parts she gives enough expression and she does not try to give more than what needed in the rest That why she keeps her energy throughout the performance because she keeps a good control of it Ain't no way she over does anything
@@AnzzCheatedOnMarkWithHaechan People are saying she's "overdoing" simply because some members of Twice like "underdoing" a lot. But that's for another day.
@@AB-yk2pq I don't watch twice's performances much except in music shows or music bank so idk about all the members performance abilities but I have to say their dance sync really saves them even if they lack.. You don't notice the differences in energy they're well trained truly
@@AnzzCheatedOnMarkWithHaechan That's one of the best things about Twice besides their songwriting, even the weakest dancers are keeping up. But when it comes to energy, facial expressions, versatility some members are lacking but they're all talented in their own ways.
the people who hate on jihyo because she's "OvErDoInG" are the same people who hated on tsuki... they're just used to their faves giving low energy every time their fave performs
i honestly think jihyo has one of the best stage presences in the industry. she has never lost passion after all these years, and i have never seen her give anything less than her best.
I still remember during ICSM lives, even though choreography is not that easy she still tries to sing all her lines and be louder than backtrack. Similar with MM.
Truly a precious idol.
watching her first performance with talk that talk, u wouldn't think she had just recovered from covid. the girl always gives 110% when she performs and never slacks off despite some difficult circumstances... a literal god i tell u
She spent 10 years training to be an idol this is her passion I'm not shocked she gives it her all on stage even when she's sometimes not feeling well
SILLY IT'S ME.
@@proud_serene64 HI AJAJAJJAJS
my girl jihyo literally always gives her 100% every single performance. even just a few days before, having just come back from her short break because of miss rona, she didn't lose her energy nor her presence. that woman is a literal _beast_ i tell you
Bestie not me without even hearing Cheryl mention Jihyo thinking like "Where is Roxie because I know for sure Jihyo's here" She's THAT good lol
Also can I call you Roxie? Or you can give me your name lol, you call me by name, it's fair if I call you by a name too (I can't keep calling you by your username forever lol)
Even when she had anxiety that one performance :/
I love your username so much omg
@@velvetieyuri LMAO yeah best believe that when someone's praising my girl, you'll find me in the comments hyping her up
im ok with being called roxy, but u can also call me by my nickname cher. im fine with both honestly 😂
God, Jihyo in Alcohol-Free was a like a LITERAL goddess. She was so beautiful and just a little flirty and had an all-around magical vibe up there. Every time I watch her fancams I take notes on what she does with her eyes, her body language, and the way she kind of acts along with whatever songs she's performing. It's amazing how she only gets better through the eras. And her versatility, my god. She can do anything from cute and sweet for most of Twice's music and then Perfect World and her performance project came out. Oh my god, she's so good at more intense stuff as well. As a performer she's kind of my role model lmao.
I'm not even into preforming but I genuinely look up to her in some ways. She's just hardworking and passionate about what she does.
And super professional, even when she had panic attack or insomnia she still gave great preformances.
m&m jihyo had me on my knees
This right here. Never really looked forward to fancams until I saw her Alcohol-Free fancam, esp the one with the scarf top and white bellbottom outfit. She was glowing in a way that you could tell she was feeling the music.
I remember when someone on quora said Jihyo couldnt do mature concepts that they only looked at her in cute, and they were wrong, greatly.
I feel like so many people forgot about Seungyeon. She’s consistently been such an INSANE performer throughout CLC’s run. She has not been given her flowers by the kpop community at large and I really am happy to see her being recognized as the performance standard she is. God I miss CLC.
CLC is so underrated 😭 stupid cube
whats crazy is that seungyeon is so charismatic and talented yet the other girls (especially yeeun) aren't overshadowed by her on stage like they're so in sync with each other
You can't completely blame Cube. The public never gave them any attention, even when they had good promotions.@@sherbear6625
Since CLC is technically disbanded I hope Seungyeon redebuts
Park Jihyo is THE standard of Stage Presence. And she DESERVES to be acknowledged for it!!!!
Hwanwoong is literally the best performer in 4th gen it's sad that people don't know him and ONEUS they are such a great group.
He has the perfect balance. He never does too much or less than necessary. He is never really extreme with facial expressions unless the occasion calls for it
The second she started talking about an underappreciated male idol with amazing stage presence I was like "GIRL YOU BETTER SAY HWANWOONG!". I'm happy that she understands his talent.
@@NinjaKittkatt same
Once you watch him dance you can't take your eyes off him. First hand experience in every dance practice
One of the things that makes HyunA more impressive than Jennie is that HyunA is just permanently a soloist at this point. So, where Jennie has the ability to fade into the background while Lisa and/or Rosé take over the stage (in order to catch her breath), HyunA is the center of attention throughout the entirety of the performance. She unfortunately doesn’t have the ability to take a moment and catch her breath. That’s molded her into a more refined performer because she knows that she can’t overperform or she’ll faint. And for a dominant-charismatic performer, that’s the key to success! Since I’m positive that Jennie will do more solo activities in the future, I’m sure that she’ll follow a similar path and become just as amazing as HyunA! 🙌
That's why a lot of idols can be AMAZING in a group and not shine as much as a soloist, as a soloist you need to be 100% during the entire performance. You can't just relax for a few minutes when other members do their part, you need to be drawing attention 100% of the time. That's why HyunA is so great as a performer, her energy and charisma never goes down. I noticed it more and more during Nayeon Solo Pop, you could see that in some catchy part she was there 100%, but sometimes she was relaxing and not performing 100%. It was minimal and comprehensible, but you can see that even though she slayed, she is part of a group and a very cohesive one.
On the other end, when you're in a group you need to fade into the background when it's other members part, or else you'll be accused of being an attention seeker, and you'll break that dynamic. Idols that are great at that are Nayeon, Jennie, and WY for example.
@@jessicajessica4392 Even though I think that Nayeon is one of the few Twice members able to make it as a soloist, she definitely has a bit of growth to do in order to be accustomed to performing on her own. But if anyone can do it, it’s Nayeon!
@@Nameless_mixes Nayeon is definitely in the TOP 2 performer of Twice along with Jihyo, she still has some growth to do to perform on her own, but she honestly own POP. It's an impressive debut as a soloist, and the song relies purely on her charisma during the performance, especially the chorus.
Another member I am waiting to see solo is Jihyo, she is a beast of a performer and her energy seems endless haha.
Even during 4minute Hyuna was pretty much centre with occasionally Jiyoon. So I agree that other members tend to stand out especially since Lisa is a great dancer plus Rose is a singer so they stood out. Rose is my bias. So I agree with u on that
@@jessicajessica4392 i remember that Nayeon said that Pop is ranked just behind More and More in terms of how tiring it is! It definitely ties into what you said about her energy level going down a bit during some parts
the way my jaw DROPPED at the hwangwoong reveal 😭 it never occurred to me that people don't know him when he's this captivating to watch. Thank you for mentioning him!!
right.. thought even of ppl didn't know the group they'd know him 😔
Hi :) his name is Hwanwoong btw!!
@happyfridayYT shut up btw!!
@@coquetteishfetish??
@@onemin8729 why did u even reply to me if u had nothing to say ??? shut up 💋
Hwanwoong and Oneus in general are so underrated not only when it comes to stage presence but as a group in general. I really hope they get more recognition soon because they deserve it
Hwanwoong is an amazing performer. Never over performs, never under performs. And yet he always gives his all. Ugh!!
Even though I have things to say about RBW, I can't deny they really do have a thing to spot talent, like, wow (♡∀♡)/ ~♪♪
Their discography is a masterpiece, like they have something for everyone and it's hard to believe not many people have even heard of them. I love their music and I'm trying to stan them because of it
@@strayglowpinkm549
Their music makes me cry but in a good way... they are one of my fave
I’m so happy I came across their music! They reminded me of second/3rd Gen kpop music ! ❤
I'm just so happy you included Yujin. People don't talk about her enough when it comes to stage presence.😊
TAEMIN is a completely different breed for me. I can't forget the day I discovered him. I was mesmerized, flabbergasted, stunned, hypnotized, enchanted, (insert adjectives)..., simply just watching him on the screen. He exudes such powerful aura that you can't escape but only gets more drawn to it and there's no way out ;) He is the only artist/performer I admire after MJ (i'm a huge fan of mj). And only TAEMIN has the aura that MJ had to dominate the stage, to command the attention of the audience. No one in the industry comes close to Taemin. And never will I fear.
When I think of the term stage presence, I always think of Mamamoo. Not only are they insanely talented and can operate well with their facial expressions, but they also command the crowd really well. They always perform as if it were their concert, and can transfer their energy onto their crowd. This is why Mamamoo are my ults when it comes to stage presence
I don't remember the details but Taemin once said that when he learns choreography he just doesn't copy the moves but he thinks about what the choreographer wanted to convey with the move and try to express that.
Also, as much as I love your serious videos, it's so nice hearing you talk about things you love. I very much enjoy your content.
Taemin almost immediately became my ult bias because of his stage presence and natural ability to perform! I was hooked the first time I saw him perform.
Surprisingly all 3 male idols that are mentioned here are not clear masculine performers. There's definitely something about male feminine or masculine-feminine performers they're just unbeatable. And I'd really like to hear what you think about nct's Ten bcs it's always been so so fascinating to look at him for me. tysm for this video❤️
Oh you'll find out what I think about Ten soon enough 🤫
@@everglowup I'm seated
@@everglowup Did you end up talking about him in a video? I thought I had watched everything but maybe I missed it!
Apart from stage presence, another reason why Jihyo's dancing is almost as talked about as that of top dancers like Momo is that Jihyo's dancing is comparable to hers now. This may not have been the case when they debuted but watch Jihyo and Momo's recent dance fancams side by side and you'll get what I'm tryna tell. Jihyo has grown so much as a dancer.
Ultimately it boils down to the person's mindset. Healthy competitiveness is prolly what made her the ace. Won't be surprised if she starts spitting bars like a main rapper someday out of nowhere xD
Taemin understands that performance is sensory storytelling perfectly that's why the famous "Taemin's genre" Taemin performs better than anyone else not because of music nor dance nor vocals nor lyrics nor style but all of them, your sister is right and i believe taemin sees himself as a medium to convey the music, i've seen him talking in interview once saying that's he's studying theatrical art to know exactly which movement convey which emotion and my god my respect for him went skyrocket on knowing that. He understands the science behind the art and that's my friend is the genius of him.
Jihyo always amazes me, i’ve been following Twice since their debut and i can’t name a single performance where she didn’t give her 100%. Watching her and her story of training 10 years is truly inspirational.
thank you sososo much for talking about hwanwoong, most people forget he exists and how talented he is. When I saw him on road to kingdom I couldn't believe how he dominated the stage in every concept they threw at him
I didn't follow Izone and I didn't know anything about Yujin before IVE debuted.
That girl is just great and she's still young.
Natural facial expressions, confidence on stage and with her moves also amazing ability to catch attention even when she's not in the centre. I hope she won't tone down her preforming even more, since people are accusing her of "overshadowing" ever since Eleven.
afaik she hasnt performed eleven the same way she did during the first few weeks of promotion because knetz told her to tone it down ☹️ i miss seeing her intensity during the 1234567 *bite*
@@legallyyblonde yeah I noticed that as well. She's really good tho and I'm glad she was mentioned in this video. She's my bias actually 😁
@@idowuajayi8721 she's my bias too! one tip from another yujin stan is to refrain from looking at comment sections 🥲 im so glad that this channel is one of the very few safe spaces for yujin stans on youtube lol
I’m glad you mentioned Hwanwoong in this video! I think precise is a good way to describe both his dance style and his stage presence. He’s had everything on lock since his debut tbh. I think it’s interesting that you also described Taemin as precise because, as far as I know, Taemin is (one of?) Hwanwoong’s biggest idols. I think he’s been (indirectly) learning from Taemin as long as he’s been training and performing
the thing with jihyo is that even i don’t like the song, her performance makes me enjoy the music as well. also with San, he does overdance but I think it fits with ateez and I’m glad he’s on this list!!
how does he overdance? he has insane body control so I honestly don’t see it.
@@emmylia it’s not in a bad way 😭. san is my ult and I admire the way he dances but in some cases he can dance quite excitedly, how many mics has he broken? 😭 nonetheless it fits ateez and I’m glad he’s performing how he wants to.
You know that Jihyo is giving it her all in every comeback; she has such duality, and she is forever improving. God Jihyo.
Some idols are a pure GIFT to watch. They LOVE it and give it their all. It doesn’t feel rehearsed or robotic and regardless whether you even like their group or the song, you will enjoy the performance because of them. THAT is what I call a good performer.
so true about what you said about san! he's just so captivating as a performer that you can never not notice him. and what makes it even better, like you said, he truly enjoys and is super passionate about what he does and that helps him to perform so naturally like he's doing his daily things. that really helps him to immerse himself in the song and the lyrics amd he embodies every concept given to him so incredibly. he's truly an icon and the standard, he's on his own league when it comes to stage presence
Jihyo is amazing, when I saw her live, I could feel her energy and passion for performance. That stage was on fire. I just couldn't believe it. I wasn't even sitting that close at all, but I could feel her energy from wherever. Just truly an amazing performer. I love her style of performance, she's really the complete package. Just so happy she's better and back, I was worried about her
every time i think of a good kpop performer, jihyo is always the first to come to mind. i love twice but she truly stands out. her energy, her dance moves, her voice, everything is just perfect and i just feel she's never lacking. she's truly made for the stage and i love to see she loves what she's doing!
Hwanwoong is so majestic when he performs, every time I watch him he captivates my attention, he and Oneus in general are amazing story tellers
Jihyo is the whole package. I adore that woman so much. She deserves every minute she spends on the stage doing what she loves. I think she's a true storyteller and really considers each song's energy and story and conveys so much. It's why I love watching her just as much on stages like Cry For Me and Perfect World as I do the happy, bubbly Twice concepts. It's struck me more than once that Jihyo would be as entrancing to watch as a hula or belly dancer as she is as a kpop idol.
When you started talking about an idol, that is not that well known, but has amazing stage presence my mind immediately went to Hwanwoong! But I thought there was no chance he would be in here, because I haven't seen him in any of your other videos. Well...
THANK YOU!!!
He really deserves much more recognition than he gets!
OMG ONEUS YES. They are so underrated 😭 their discography is top tier, the members are so talented and hwanwoong one of the best performers so true. I hope they get recognized more.
also their new cb teasers are out guys check them out omg
I'm soooooo happy Hwanwoong made into in your list. He is the sole reason I became a boygroup stan.
yujin praise 😭🫂🫂🫂🫂 anyway i was a yujin stan since pd48 (she's two years older than me we basically grew up tgt lmao) because she had this INTENSE desire to improve and get better at anything. when she performed gangsta with chaeyeon and yena, i KNEW she's going to be an insane performer when she reaches 18. she's like a ticking time bomb. few months later she had a viral fancam because of sequence, an izone bside that doesn't sound remotely close to any izone title track which made her stand out (seriously go watch all the fancams). finally, ive came around and it's like the bomb had exploded. she was a different performer. you can see the experience in every move, but she's also just starting. im so so SO excited for her future.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!! I WAS SO SO HAPPY TO SEE SEUNGYEON AND HWANWOONG IN THIS LIST WE STAN!!! They are CRIMINALLY underrated, THANK YOU so much for spreading the word and showing them to your audience, I hope more people get to know and love them.
Of course I also agree with the other mentions and love these idols! And thank you again for putting the positive examples in the forefront, I love that.
God Jihyo has never given anything less than a 100% when she’s on stage.
Yaasss I‘m so happy you talked about Hwanwoong, this guy is the most fascinating idol I‘ve seen in a looong time! And ironically enough at first it was because of his cheeks 😅 I knew a few oneus songs but didn’t really pay attention to them until they dropped lit 🔥 and in one of the first scenes they start dancing Hwanwoong is the center (the infamous gaja parts 😅) and his cheeks poke out in a way mine sometimes do, which I don’t like at all. So I was a little annoyed by his presence but lit being the bomb it is I listened to it over and over again and I was subconsciously always drawn to him to point I was explicitly looking for hin! I had to check his kpop profil, I watched road to kingdom because of him, like he threw the bait and I ATE it! He’s so captivating and expressive and even though oneus as a group are amazing he’s the one that comes to my mind instantly when oneus is mentioned! This dude ruined me, I wasn’t that infatuated with someones stage presence since taemin 😩 and off stage he’s the sweetest little pumpkin, like HOW?! Bye, I‘ll go cry in the corner ❤️❤️❤️
Oh and also HyunA, she’s amazing and in my early kpop days when I didn’t know much about it I thought the rest of 4 minute were her backup dancers 🙀 which just shows how good she is, but makes me sad at the same time because if I remember correctly there were problems within the group because of jealousy etc..
When you know Taemin will be here : let's act we are surprised 😃
Taemin actually invented stage presence ;) wbk
From the first time I saw Taemin, even before I knew his name was that and who he was as an idol, I have always thought "oh so this is basically MJ" in all the good connotations that that sentence implies. He is one with the stage in a way that I have only seen with MJ and Taemin is so good that it scares me. Idols of idols for a reason
Don’t people compare him to mj?
@@brennathecatlover4360 i have no idea since I don't really follow him or Shinee, but the point is that it was the first thing I thought cause he is that good ahahah
@@ludofratta2328 lol I thought I heard people say he’s like the Koreans mj but ik he’s at least compared to him
So... That means that MJ was a female overt dominant sensual performer? (Sorry, since I start seeing Cheryl videos about stage presence I was thinking about MJ stage presence)
Yelled when you said Hwanwoong! He’s my bias in ONEUS for a reason, he just has this essence in the way he moves that is so captivating. I don’t know female dancers as well, but each male dancer I was like yes, of course, amazing all of them.
OMG IM SO GLAD TO SEE HWANWOONG HERE, HE IS AN AMAZING PERFORMER!!
For me miss Chungha is also a standard. I mean she is so versatile, and she's good with both facial expressions and body language, you can see she is enjoying the stage in almost every, if not every single performance
Oneus are such great performers, I always enjoy watching hwanwoong. he’s probably the best at facial expressions in 4th gen, he doesn’t do too much, but the right amount. But they are so underrated
I love jihyo - she’s the entire reason I got into kpop. I saw her perform and I was soooo impressed
Cheryl: Look at him (San)
Me: Sweetie I look at him everyday.
Great video as always and thanks for including Hwanwoong, he is the reason I got into Oneus and no one talks about him!
whenever i hear this stage presence word, jihyo automatically comes to my mind.. her fancams are so satisfying to watch.. she is really an amazing and powerful performer.. and she is so beautiful..
Hwasa is always comes to my mins when I think stage presence! She is so comfortable, natural, and confident on stage. It's so charismatic
I love watching Jihyo perform, in literally every fancam, every concept, she gives 200% and that's why she's my bias. Love this channel so much, people need to listen to your opinions more
Jihyo is such an amazing performer, she always gives 110%.
jihyo deserve! she’s so captivating on stage ++ she looks like she really enjoys it as well
HyunA is charisma personified I LOVE it
Hyuna is literally who made me love kpop thanks to her stage presence, watching her during the babe and lip and hip era made me stan her literally that exact moment
Yujin is an incredible performer . Ive been on a fancam marathon of Yujin
Hwanwoong is just such an amazing performer and it's crazy. The power this man carries in his tiny body is just unbelievable.
Oneus as a group is amazing and to be able to stand out in a group like that is even more remarkable. Leedo is an honorable mention too. That man is a beast
I'm so happy to see Seungyeon here, what made me fall for CLC was exactly the way she controls the stage, her confidence is so exciting, like the moment she's the center of attention she just makes you want to watch her perform. I also think that her group member Yeeun is a very strong performer, more elegant and refined than Seungyeon who is more dominant and powerful in my opinion, but also commanding. And I also truly feel like hyuna just doesn't care if she doesn't look as good sometimes and I love it, like there's facial expressions she uses that just go so well with her message or song, but are not really what a kpop agency would call flatering. I remember PSY even made her change some facial expressions in I'm not cool because he said that she looked like she was swearing.
San immediately caught my attention the first time I saw an ateez performance years back. I thought he was the main dancer. Was shocked to find out that he wasn't. He has that Aura that captivates you almost instantly.
I loved Jihyo's performance even when I did not know much about Twice
YES THE HWANWOONG VALIDATION 😭 I swear he's caught my eye ever since Produce101 S2, he's an amazing performer
I love all of twice so much but i just can't stop looking at Jihyo during their performances
I'm so glad you mentioned Hwanwoong! My eyes are always drawn to him or Ravn. His stage presence is just so 🤌🏽
Aww I'm sooo glad you included hwanwoong because he's my fave since produce 101🥺 I also love his stage presence so much💗 personally my standard in stage presence is G-Dragon, that man knows how to carry himself on stage so well and his ability to command the stage? I diE everytime istg that man💀 He knows that he was born to perform on stage because he has always been vocal about his passion for performing, and it shows, a lot of 2nd gen fans noticed his genuineness. His strong magnetic aura and confidence is A+++ Tier. unfortunately he, and Big Bang, are still on hiatus (which is fine I don't really mind, they deserve to have a rest from the kpop industry) it's just that I miss seeing them perform on stage🥺😭 Regardless, he is still my Number/Top 1 out of ALL the kpop idols when it comes to stage presence, and so far no one has beaten him on my list yet💅
oh and some of my honorable mentions:
CL, BTS' J-Hope, NCT's Yuta and Haechan, Twice's Jihyo, Soojin (former idle), Taemin,
Same!!! G-Dragon is my standard too and you know what's amazing? Is that he, in BigBang, the group known for stage presence because each members are just that amazing when performing each in their own way, and he still manages to stand out! He is just that good, he is born to be on stage!
And you know he is good when CL fans and Hyuna fans quarrel to know who is "the female G-Dragon" on stage (saw it on 4Minute "Crazy" stage performance).
@@jasmeen5712 omg i remembered that whole "female G-dragon" war era during 2nd gen💀 Now that you mentioned it, it also amazes me that every member in bb are able to stand out on their own w/o overshadowing/overpowering one another, cause they're all equally good but still had their own style and color. They're monsters on stage🔥 gosh I miss them sm🥺💕
Right gd just breaths and he gets the crowd partying and the whole group too lmao
You're so right about Hwanwoong. From the way he's technically proficient, his energy and control, how he accentuates movement so that you see what he wants you to see, his facial expressions which are just right(cheeky, intense, fun), his confidence and the way you can tell he just loves performing.
I can't help but smile watching him and sometimes I have to laugh at how insane he is.
He is definitely one of the top performers in K-pop and the best of his generation.
Jihyo in the thumbnail of this as she should
Every time I see twice bias ranking I get shocked.. Like how can jihyo be low.. Even before I hear her voice dance or anything her aura was just so attractive... Like she just makes you enjoy the performance as much as she's doing.. The thing I love about her is that she never shows any struggle or tiredness while performing she controls her facials until the end and give her best throughout her whole stage time.. You can tell she was born to be a star.. Amazing stable vocalist great dancer Nice and attractive performer she's a full package I love her even if am not a fan
Jihyo slays everytime. Shes my Twice bias, I fell in love with her vocals and her whole aura, like you said.

THANK YOU for recognizing my boys Taemin and Hwanwoong! A random UA-cam algorithm brought Taemin and then subsequently Kpop to me and honestly, I think he spoiled me because no other performer has come quite close enough.
He’s captivating to watch with his little nuances. I watched an interview with him once in which he spoke about how he takes notice of how a slight change in his shoulder angle or eye glance makes all the difference for him. And he channels the music in his whole body. He’s just magic. And his concerts on UA-cam are amazing. Like 3 full hours of him holding the stage on his own.
I have never seen another idol…I’ll just say it, “eye f***” the camera like he does (The Stage performance of Criminal ruins me every time. Also there’s an eye contact video sooooooo…)
And Oneus is in my top 3 groups, so I’m so excited you mentioned them and my sweet pocket boy Hwanwoong! His facial expressions, as you said, are next level without being over the top. He’s actually covered some of Taemin’s stuff and looks up to him as a senior idol, which is always a bonus!
jihyo and taemin...👑 that's it. that's the comment
I've loved hwanwoong ever since he debuted!! It's great to see him and oneus get noticed, they're so underrated :((((
I would love to see your ranking of 2nd gen idols that fit the stage presence standard and your rubic! They don't get enough love, and 100% paved the way for the current popularity of kpop world-wide.
Big Bang and 2ne1 be like yeeee
True, I think they are better in stage presence. It's that fancams are not that known in their generation
I do not kid when I say you talking about hwanwoong made me want to check Oneus out
it’s the way i instantly knew you were going to talk about hwanwoong when i heard that the group was not popular😭 oneus are so great they honestly deserve more recognition
Jihyo is my standard, I love her so much, I watched videos of her performing Push & Pull and she ate it and made me want to be there so bad, she is my favorite performer ❤️
Preach! I agree with Hwanwoong. He uses proper facial expressions and his performance is crazy good!
Justice for Hwanwoong man, he deserves so much more hype. That boy was WASTED on Produce 101, legit his performances were my favorite and it's criminial how underrated him and ONEUS are
i cant believe many dont know hwanwoong 😭 he is so magnetizing really. you can tell he’s born to perform, and enjoys doing it. i especially love him during Lit
FINALLY someone talking about Oneus! They are so talented but so underrated, they deserve a lot more :(
Yessssss thank you for shouting out Hwanwoong! He immediately pulled me in when seeing their relay dance.
Yes, we love positively based video!
I feel like Jihyo spent all those 10 years just chomping at the bit to get out there and work as an idol, and now - once she's been given the chance - she's just Rocketing ahead, always giving 110%.
She was made for this job, she loves this job, and she's always working hard on improving, to be even better. She's like
"I give 110% in every performance? Those are rookie numbers! I want to give 150% in every performance!"
Hwanwoong my ultimate bias !!! I'm so glad you talked about him 😭😭😭😭
Ateez and Oneus being two of my ults of all ults makes me think I have a type...
girl i think you should've mentioned hwanwoong more because i literally discovered ateez through you, because you mentioned san so many times in your stage presence ranking videos😩. i discovered hwanwoong & oneus by myself & my first thought was "i can't believe cheryl never mentioned hwanwoong... does she know him??" ahahahah...😁
Seungyeon was always ignored for her stage presence & dance when she was easily one of the most talented dancers in the 3rd gen! I love her & CLC so muchhhhh
I'M SO HAPPY HWANWOONG IS IN THIS. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST PERFORMERS IN KPOP. I GOT THE CHANCE TO SEE HIM LIVE AT A CONCERT AND HE CAPTIVATED ME. HIS STAGE PRESENCE IS ONE OF THE REASONS I DECIDED TO STAN ONEUS.
I almost cried when it's Hwanwoong you revealed😭😭 ONEUS and HWANWOONG are gems of Kpop for people yet to discover, they deserve so much more!!!
I smiled so wide when Hwangwoong appeared, people in general ignore Oneus while talking about such topics when they are one of the most charismatic groups out there. Him and Leedo are my favorite.
Jihyo , Wendy and taehyung are the number one names that come to my mind when I hear "Stage Presence"
😍😍😍
My ult of ults San (the chokehold
he has on me!) and biases Jihyo and Yujin all on this list. I truly have a thing for performers and idols who look like they love what they're doing!
Also so happy to see Hwangwoong on this list! The man is criminally underrated!
I have seen Jihyo perform in short and/or uncomfortable outfits, but she gives her 100%. I'm not even a Once.
Someone remembering Hyuna is heart warming. She is a true performer even when she was her sickest she went out and give the performance of her live.
She is loves the stage and it shows how much she enjoys what she does. Genuinely. Over the years with more freedom she got you can see how much happier she was with each comeback because it was her ideas and her vision on stage.
Finally someone mentioned my hwanwoong 😭 he’s such an amazing dancer and he deserves appreciation
hwanwoong is SO AMAZING and im so happy you finally talked about him 😭 really wanted to see your analysis on him, i really hope people start paying attention to him and his group cause they deserve it so much
literally preaching the damn truth abut hwanwoong. i remember watching valkyrie stages and i literally couldnt take my eyes off him. hes incredible and expressive. hoping more people look into oneus!
Hwanwoong is such a darling on stage! I love watching him perform because it's like watching a musical every single time. ONEUS is one of my favorite groups because the majority of their members love doing what they do, and because of that, all of their songs slap on and off stage.
TAEMIN IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL! I've heard the argument all the time of, "Oh, he's a 2nd Gen idol. He's had experience. That's why he's good as he is." That might be true, but the thing is...TAEMIN HAS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE HE DEBUTED! Him using Michael Jackson has his muse is actually not surprising to me (and I am one of the biggest Michael Jackson fans to exist), and I'm going to be frank. A lot of people who got rise in fame in the 2000's use MJ as their musical inspiration, but there are so few artists who can emulate MJ just as well as MJ while he was alive. Taemin is the closet Michael Jackson emulation I've ever seen. He can sing and dance close to the same level as the KING of Pop and that should tell you everything you need to know.
Thank you for talking about Hwanwoong! He works really hard on his stage presence and facial expressions (among other things) and he's insane to see live (all of Oneus just transforms when they perform) but seeing him do the openings for Lit and Comeback Home always give me chills.
Am so excited to see Hwanwoong here 😭 Also you did great explaining everything, it was really interesting to watch!
Tysm, I appreciate that so much!
Personally, one of my favorite performers is definitely Yeonjun from txt, i just find everything about his performances, especially what he does with his eyes and facial expressions, so captivating. He seems to always give 100% of his energy and abilities but also looks like he's having so much fun during performing, for both their brighter and darker songs. I feel like once he's on stage, it's very hard to take your eyes off him
I think as soon as Ahn Yujin went viral with IZ*ONE Sequence stages, Starship knew they finally hit the concept jackpot for IVE - a continuation and build up off IZ*ONE’s elegant yet sensual songs like Daydream, Ayayaya, Sequence, Mise En Scene, Highlight, etc. And I agree with you, none of the IVE members is truly a charismatic performer. I mean Wonyoung sorta had her charismatic eras during Produce 48 and early IZ*ONE days, but then she quickly gravitated towards the feminine sensual route. Heck even Yujin fooled me into thinking her had a charismatic side by utilizing her big baby doll eye-smile in every bright upbeat IZ*ONE stages. I think IVE consist of:
Yujin: feminine overt sensual
Gaeul: feminine covert dominant
Rei: feminine covert dominant
Wonyoung: feminine overt sensual
Liz: feminine covert sensual
LeeSeo: feminine covert dominant
Even the dominant members are covert so their group harmony is not disturbed
I 1000000000% agree with Yeo Hwanwoong!!! I love Oneus and all the dances of Oneus I know I follow Hwanwoong because there's absolutely no way you can take your eye off him with how much presence he has. He is short but hold all the power, he cannot be lost within the members and knows how to give it.
I also agree with Taemin, I was gonna say something if he wasn't in this list because I mean you can have the words "stage presence" without the definition being Lee Taemin. He's been that standard since 2008 and has just solidified the fact the more he performs. No matter how many idols I love, Taemin will always be my first pick when you talk about being the best performer.
Gurl in your post about toxic ateez fans their is person who thinks that you hate San because you said he over performance and then you drop this video lmaooo what a clowns 😭
clown behaviour lmao
They probably won't watch it😂😂
@@aristocraft2000 i like ur name ahaahah his scalp is actually very strong right???
@@bellaoctavia9681 😂 😂 yes his scalp is strong but I just think it would be funny cuz man is dyeing his hair like there's no tomorrow
@@aristocraft2000 I told him to watch this but he just replied me with "??"😂
He even mad that someone replied to him and called him "Gurl" Like he soo defensive and said "don't Misgender me in this comment" 💀
jihyo best performer iktfr! she's amazing TO WATCH
Oh my God!! 💜Thank you so much for including HWANGWOONG from Oneus!!! Everything you said about him,and all mentioned idols actually, is so accurate!👏🏻 Loved the video as usual!
Honestly it confuses me how people can say that Jihyo is overdoing anything. Especially when I see people who are praising her.
She's the second best dancer in the group with strong body language, good facial expressions that aren't too much and consistent energy though the preformances. Not to mention she can fit any concept she's given.
I can tell she's one of the most balanced performers not even arguably.. When it's her parts she gives enough expression and she does not try to give more than what needed in the rest
That why she keeps her energy throughout the performance because she keeps a good control of it
Ain't no way she over does anything
@@AnzzCheatedOnMarkWithHaechan People are saying she's "overdoing" simply because some members of Twice like "underdoing" a lot. But that's for another day.
@@AB-yk2pq I don't watch twice's performances much except in music shows or music bank so idk about all the members performance abilities but I have to say their dance sync really saves them even if they lack.. You don't notice the differences in energy they're well trained truly
@@AnzzCheatedOnMarkWithHaechan That's one of the best things about Twice besides their songwriting, even the weakest dancers are keeping up.
But when it comes to energy, facial expressions, versatility some members are lacking but they're all talented in their own ways.
the people who hate on jihyo because she's "OvErDoInG" are the same people who hated on tsuki... they're just used to their faves giving low energy every time their fave performs
Jihyo is the greatest female performer of all time.
