Sullyoon NMIXX Called Breaking JYP Entertainment's Girl Group Visual Tradition, How come?

Sullyoon NMIXX

JYP Entertainment has a tradition for their visual members where all the visuals happen to be the maknae or youngest member of the group, but this tradition has been broken.

For more than a decade, JYP Entertainment has been known as the agency with the best eye in choosing visuals for their girl groups. However, this tradition will finally be broken when the agency officially debuts NMIXX with Sullyoon as a visual member.

JYP Entertainment has a tradition for their visual members where all the visuals happen to be the maknae or youngest member of the group. Sullyoon, the NMIXX member most likely to be assigned a visual position, was born in 2004 which makes him not the youngest member.

NMIXX's maknae is Kyujin, who was born in 2006, making him two years younger than Sullyoon. Even though the tradition is now about to be broken, people are still admiring the visual-maknae beauty of JYP Entertainment's last four girl groups.

Before JYP Entertainment added Hyelim to Wonder Girls, Sohee was the original maknae of the group. In 2007, Sohee captivated the audience with her unique eye shape when she debuted. She is the first JYP Entertainment girl group member to be given the visual position.

In 2010, JYP Entertainment debuted miss A. Their maknae, Suzy, was immediately praised for her pure beauty, earning the title "Nation's First Love." With her unmatched visuals, Suzy's popularity was high when she debuted. To this day, Suzy is considered one of the most beautiful women in the industry.

In 2015, JYP Entertainment debuted TWICE, a group formed through the survival show "SIXTEEN." Since her time on the survival show, Tzuyu has been praised for her stunning visuals and has become a crowd favourite, which led to her joining TWICE. In 2019, she was even named "The Most Beautiful Face in the World" by TC Candler.

ITZY debuted in 2019. Shin Yuna, the group's maknae, continues the tradition of being the youngest and visual member. Only 16 years old at the time, Yuna impressed many with her stunning proportions, model-like height, and actress-like beauty.

In February 2021, JYP Entertainment will debut NMIXX, an all-in-one girl group with seven members. Sullyoon has been praised for her visuals since she was first introduced. However, while people are happy to see new visuals in K-pop, many are sad to see JYP Entertainment's visual tradition come to an end. (wk/goddess)
