She needs to make a personal instagram bc no offence to the other girls but I’ve had my eye on her since produce 48 and she was the only reason I was invested in purplekiss
I miss her a lot, her voice would've suited so many parts in Sweet Juice (just because both Jieun and the song gives me elegant vibes). If she decides to debut solo, I'm manifesting that she'll do a similar concept to Sweet Juice or a song that suits her deep velvety voice.
ugh i love her voice sm, i wish rbw appreciated her more because she had great sp and was a good dancer as well. I’m literally still so sad she left, she was my bias alongside chaein :(
i absolutely fell in love with her during zombie era and it made me see how much shes like hidden, she dances in the back majority of the time and gets such little lines which is insane since shes so unbelievably talented just like all the other girls
In a group full of next level super stars, sometimes Ji Eun gets forgotten. I don't really think it's fair because she's just as talented as her other members, but I suppose she doesn't have that one trait that you can point to and say "Ji Eun does this" or "Ji Eun is in charge of this". (Although I think it can be argued that Ji Eun has the most gleeful smile in all of K-Pop). But seriously, the girl is on par with everyone else, and in any other group she'd shine as an all-arounder. Problem is that she's in PURPLE KISS, a group of all-arounders. Saying all that, though, I wouldn't say she offers nothing. So often people focus on the musical side of an idol's career, but that's only part of it. Another part is performing for extra content like photoshoots, video-shoots, variety shows, games, streaming, and so on. In this Ji Eun REALLY shines. As dynamic as Yuki and Dosie are on stage, sometimes that doesn't translate to the side-stuff. Ji Eun, though, really embraces that aspect of being an idol (Ireh and Chaein as well). Her silly personally always makes you, anyone else around her, laugh and smile. Plus I'd consider her one of the visuals of the group - if that matters. I love Ji Eun, and while I do think that within the musical side of things she hasn't found her niche, she still can hang with the others and not struggle or look out of place. Perhaps in the future we'll all see another side of her, a spark that will be an ah-ha moment that will give Ji Eun a trait that is only for her. As it is, I think she shines the best with fun/cute concepts (like Zombie) and is great for side content.
I think she sounds best when she leans into her low tone voice. It's also a position none of the others really fulfill so I think there is opportunity to utilize her more and it would give PK even more varied vocals. However, I don't think it's necessarily just the company that's holding her back. I think she might be hesitant to put herself in the spotlight due to confidence issues. Hopefully the situation will improve over time but we may have to be a bit patient.
That was only the case when they debuted because she felt a lot of pressure for being the oldest member because of the ageism in the industry which is understandable considering she debuted at 23 years old but it's so fucked up how normal age like that is already considered 'old' and she felt like she wasn't as capable as the other members... She no longer has any confidence issues
I think it's so sad that she only lost her confidence just before they debuted, cause in so many pre-debut things she's a lot more confident and get's 'better' parts. I also adore her low vocal color and really want to hear more of it. I think she has a really stunning voice that's also very distinct
Imo, she is not as confident as the period she was still a trainee. And I think the company ady put an effort to let her voice fits in the whole group because her voice is too unique. I would say her music genre is quite limited.
Jieun is Purple Kiss hidden gem. Her voice is my style, it’s strong but soft when it needs to be. Love her low range😍 I feel like she has a mature voice, reminds me a bit of Solar. We have only scratched the surface of her talents. Plus I love her smile!☺️💜💜
I always thought that even without being an official lead or main, she could shine. For instance, Mina doesn't have a vocalist position but she usually gets certain parts that suit her voice, so she always gets plenty lines.
The clip at 4:02 is my favorite. She fits that style so well. Also, her English pronunciation is really good all over this video. The most underrated member of the group by a wide margin.
i really love her vocals, its just different from all the others members and it makes me sad that the compaly dont give her that much lines, I really hope that change bc she is a great singer
it's clear she's not a powerhouse vocalist, but what she can do she does really well, and she has a beautiful tone. I wish we saw more of her, if only because her energy on stage is contagious. It's clear she loves performing.
exactly!! her voice is absolutely amazing, like you said she’s not a powerhouse vocalist, but her voice is amazing. and i think that’s really important for people to recognize, that just because she isn’t a powerhouse vocalist doesn’t mean she’s a bad vocalist… i hope rbw realizes that she’s actually really good, and that they should give her more lines. when making this video, i noticed that pre-debut she was super confident with her voice but ever since she debuted she’s lost some of that confidence in her voice, fortunately it seems like she’s getting it back. i think it’s rbw and them giving her very little lines, i think it’s made jieun loose confidence cause of that. which is sad cause she really does have a beautiful and unique voice.
@@purkyplory I agree! Even if you just compare some of the performances during ponzona era to their Blue Moon cover you see how much more confident she seems now. But then again in pre debut (like word up or mikrokosmos) she seems a lot more at ease.
@@episode40 ok, I know I'm late, since she already left Purki, but well. In short, she wasn't. She was a nice lead vocalist pre debut (Weak/High Weak at best) but maybe due to her lack of confidence, she lost almost all her support so she was an underdeveloped vocalist (E-) during most, if not all her time in Purki. She definitively had the potential to be the 4th or 5th best vocalist on Purki though. Maybe once she debuts again as a soloist she will get her support and confidence back and who knows how a good vocalist she could be!. The overall ranking in Purki if you're curious was: 1. Goeun (Average/C) 2. Chaein (Higher Weak to Average - Low Average/ ^D+ - C-) 3. Swan (Higher Weak to Average/^D+) 4. Dosie [High Weak/E+ (I'm not that sure, but I'm seeing improvements from her in Sweet Juice era, so maybe she's a Low Weak to Average/D-)] 5. Jieun (At best: Weak - High weak/ E - E+. After debut: Underdeveloped/ E-) 6. Ireh (Fairly relaxed/ F+) 7. Yuki (Non vocalist/ F)
Manifesting Jieun Solo Debut!!! Being in a super active group like PK makes sense why she would need to step back, but a simple chill Solo career? Much easier. Also hopefully she gets to produce more!
Also if Purki had these types of positions...she should be the official visual. I think she's the one fitting the kbs more ... maybe it's just me but in some pictures she looks like the little sister of SNSD Yoona, and the kbs were basically made on her....
@@purkyplory omg i went on Twitter to see some comparision between her and Yoona and i literally found out Goeun first impression of Jieun was this: "i became a trainee before jieun unnie. Before she came, words spread that a pretty trainee would come. When you hear that, you tend to keep them in check so I wondered who would it be... and so I saw someone who looked like Yoona sunbaenim and it was unnie" 😍🤯
I know I'm pretty new to Purple Kiss, but as far as I know she already got not so many lines in comparison to the other members which may explain her confidence struggles. Sad that she left the group cause I really liked her voice which can be compared a little to Goeun (my bias) in how she sounds. Correct me if I said anything wrong lol. Anyway, I wish her the best for whatever she's doing now.
if you ever do a part 2 to this here's some more clips 1. Her produce 48 Mamma Mia performance (it's so good) 2. 365 Practice Mikrokosmos cover (it's so beautiful please listen to it!) 3. 365 Practice christmas song covers
OH MY GOD I LITERALLY SCREEN RECORDED THE MIKROKOSMOS COVER BUT FORGOT TO ADD IT IM SO SORRY…. it’s literally just sitting in my camera roll… whoops 😭😭

Omg this is golden! I wish u included her line in JOAH because it's magical and also Jieun's outro line in Ponzona was really well delivered but either way amazing video 😫💜💜💜💜
The comments here remind me of an old comment of someone saying that Jieun might end up being in a similar position in PK as Moonbyul had been in Mamamoo, in terms of getting less lines and overlooked vocals
the reason why you haven’t seen it is because it’s unlisted (so you can only see it if you have the link to it) here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/UE1hwanuQJo/v-deo.html it’s word up by little mix
@@purkyplory A very late reply, I think they made a typo, it probably should've been "compared to her voice an angelic choir sounds like...." basically she sounds better than a bunch of angels. 😄
jieun left because of health issues and anxiety, we love you jieun. get well, and stay healthy. plorys love you!! OT7 FOREVER!😊

I think she's the most underrated member of Purple Kiss. But that's Rainbow's fault...they don't do justice to her talent enough..
yeah.. i wish they would give her more lines.. along with dosie and ireh
Ya I hope so, her high note is so great!!!!!
Facts
omg... i just found out that RBW ent stood for Rainbow from your comment lmfaoooo
ugh i love her voice sm, i wish rbw appreciated her more because she had great sp and was a good dancer as well. I’m literally still so sad she left, she was my bias alongside chaein :(
she was my bias in purple kiss, hope she returns to the industry someday bc her voice is one of my absolute faves
i absolutely fell in love with her during zombie era and it made me see how much shes like hidden, she dances in the back majority of the time and gets such little lines which is insane since shes so unbelievably talented just like all the other girls
I hope a lot of people will recognize her how great she is PLEASE GIVE JIEUN A LOTS OF LOVE FROM YOU GUYS
Louder!! 💖
