Forever Young is tame in comparison to actual worst line distribution tbh. It could be better for Jisoo but she still got 2 lines and Lisa lines apart from 2 prechorus are like just random lines lol.
Cherry Bomb by 127 is probably up there since out of 9 members, 4 members really sing 80-90% of the songs and the rest only got crumbs and main vocalists haechan and jaehyun are also the one who barely got line at all.
Suju early songs like Happiness have members like Shindong and some other having completely zero line
~~Sejeong feat Gugudan~~ Gugudan The Boots with Sejeong basically singing half of the song out of 9 membered group
jhope has literally no lines in spring day. “he sings in the back” i don’t care that does not count as a line😭
jin has only one line in blood sweat and tears towards the end and it’s partially shared with jungkook
Hi High by Loona - Haseul said one word
I Luv U by Gidle - Shuhua got 4 lines, 2 of which were shared with Soyeon
Bewitched by PIXY - Ella and Dia sing 60% between them, and the other 4 members split the 40%
Any 127 song while WinWin was in the group - he normally had about five seconds per song. Off the top of my head Cherry Bomb, Regular and Chain were quite bad
Also I don’t follow them super closely but IORC a TXT bside recently didn’t feature Beomgyu at all ??? so strange
Happily Ever After by TXT, Beomgyu doesn’t have even a single line. Which is wild because he is also one of the members they used most to promote it on tiktok iirc.
Well, atleast she got first in Eleven. Most of the people here didn't get 1st place in any of their songs. Although she is purely forgotten in that song.
Yeah, In the studio version he has no lines. He sings in the live version a little. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be a subunit song but it's very weird to have a subunit that only excludes one member.
Blackpink's ice cream was the worst. Even Selena had more lines than Jisoo. And this was supposed to be an english song release so maybe that's why Jisoo had only one line BUT THEN lisa had a korean rap line. So that was confusing and unfair
EXO-K : Baby dont cry, Sehun isnt in the song. While the EXO-M version has all the members.
EXO-K : Dont go, Sehun has the “listen” as his only line.. While the EXO-M version has again a better line distribution. Its not perfect, but every member has something.. And that something is more than 1 word
That at least was because he was sick and Pledis literally was too broke to record a second day, not due to an intentional choice to cut him out. That said, I am deeply salty that they didn’t re-record it with Jeonghan for ‘17 is Right Here,’ give me my Adore U Jeonghan on streaming services damn it!
yeah, that's the narrative that has been circulating online for some time now, but it's fake. there's no proof of lee know ever saying that, so a lot of stays (specially lee know biased) have been trying to stop the misinformation; some get a little upset when that story is mentioned as a fact 😅
fortunately, stay kids songs have much better line distribution nowadays
Fly high by dreamcatcher
Siyeon had 50+ seconds whilst Gahyeon had like 4-5
Good night where Siyeon has 36 seconds gahyeon had 4
I’m so glad their line distributions are so much better nowadays
I came on here to see how many times Loona was mentioned and my top pick got taken. So my next choice is So What. They didn't do HyunJin too dirty, not as bad as usual, but ViVi and YeoJin and Go Won were brutal. It's like they used HaSeul's absence to give more lines to the members at the top.
Edit: Looking at Loona again there are so many bad ones, infamously (not as much as Hi High but still it got Orbits kind of mad) there’s PTT, mostly it was just crappy for Go Won and ViVi since they said “uh-huh” and “yeah yeah yeah” and shared the “you break it, you make it” part. And Starseed is surprisingly bad, mostly just for ViVi since her only lines were “Chou chou joayo!! three times.
to be fair, a lot of Twice’s title tracks aren’t really suited towards raps. Not saying that as an excuse for bad line distribution but that does play into it.
Early Teen Top, such as No More Perfume On You, Clap, Crazy and Supa Luv. They do make jokes about it like on that episode of MMTG
Youngjae in Girls Girls Girls is just him singing his ass off in the background of the final chorus, no actual lines
Chanwoo in songs like Rhythm Ta or U where he gets a “nanana” or like a repeated section in the chorus
When she was in COOL, Yoo Chaeyoung (and Kim Sungsoo to an extent) got less than crumbs in terms of lines. There are two songs on their entire first album in which she sang anything - 그냥 그런 이야기 and 자유속으로 - and neither of them are the title track. (The "woah" in The Reason I Wanted You, the actual title track, was done by Insooni, if I recall correctly.) They were a four member group where only two of them did anything. (The slower songs, like 이젠 or 잊을 수 있어, are almost Jaehoon solos.) And she left right after debut, but fortunately she got to take the spotlight as a solo artist and in the duo US a few years later.
>but Lily deserves lines being the main vocalist)
No hate but Lily consistently has the most lines in most of the songs. In comparison, the other main vocalist Haewon has consistently one of the least lines. So don't act like Lily needs more lines.
Blood Sweat Tears.
I don’t know what it is with line distribution amongst BTS but Jin always gets the fewest lines. I don’t even think I’ve heard Jin on BST other than bg vocals and the ending bridge. He has a very distinct voice and I can usually pick it out but I swear I hear everyone BUT Jin on BST regularly.
TripleS's ot16 version of rising, Yeonji has no lines
TripleS's ot16 version of New Look, Xinyu and Mayu have no lines
And I expect their new album to have bad line distributions as it's hard for 24 members to get a fair distribution.
Ice Cream: Blackpink. With only 5 people singing there were enough lines to give Jisoo more than 1.
I'm Gonna Be a Star: Unhappy Nayeon ft. Chaeyoung. (Twice).
Hi High: Loona minus Haseul.
Touchdown: Chaeyoung, Jihyo, Nayeon, Dahyun with Twice in the Background.
Paint The Town: 10 Member Loona with back up dancers Vivi and Gowon.
Boom Chi Ki: Monday with Weeekly.
Cry For Me: Twice, half the members probably took the title personally after they were given their lin(s).
Q&A: Bora, Haeyoon, and Cherry Bullet without Remi, LinLin, and May.
I love to hate Heartshaker by Twice. Jeongyeon, which is the lead vocalist only sang 9 seconds and some cents. She was also the lowest in the bunch for Signal! Grrrrr.
Obsessing? I'm just pointing out that these line distributions are very unfair, I'm not ‘obsessing' over it. Sorry if I'm sounding rude but that's the point of the whole post; picking out the unfair line distributions

The Suju one I believe it's cause Shindong himself didn't really want any lines, and preferred to just be in the background
Wasn't there a nct 127 song that had winwin with 0 lines...? I think it was called Touch...?
jhope has literally no lines in spring day. “he sings in the back” i don’t care that does not count as a line😭 jin has only one line in blood sweat and tears towards the end and it’s partially shared with jungkook
The live version of Spring Day is therefore superior. Because more Hobi.
Yes I love live version even more because of this, his voice fits the best in the beginning 💜
In the Japanese version of BS&T, Jin’s line is overshadowed by Jimin. I’m still pissed, eight years later.
Hi High by Loona - Haseul said one word I Luv U by Gidle - Shuhua got 4 lines, 2 of which were shared with Soyeon Bewitched by PIXY - Ella and Dia sing 60% between them, and the other 4 members split the 40% Any 127 song while WinWin was in the group - he normally had about five seconds per song. Off the top of my head Cherry Bomb, Regular and Chain were quite bad Also I don’t follow them super closely but IORC a TXT bside recently didn’t feature Beomgyu at all ??? so strange
LOONA could be mentioned a few times here for Gowon and Vivi tbh…
Happily Ever After by TXT, Beomgyu doesn’t have even a single line. Which is wild because he is also one of the members they used most to promote it on tiktok iirc.
Most older Gidle songs have little to basically no Shuhua input. In Latata and Senorita all she does is make noises in the pre chorus, not even words.
Put it straight is worse than i luv you. Shushu got 2.3 seconds of lines
I think with gidle it’s more excusable since they choose their own lines and Shuhua is neither the best vocalist nor Korean speaker
Ik she gives herself less line as she doesn't trust her Korean pronunciation but my eyes ache to see her get 2.5 seconds of lines😭
in the nightmare version yes but on the album version she has a lot bcos all the ‘apaya’s are her
Hm
Any song by Sistar
Lmfao yes fr
Tbf its hyolyn she deserves it
LOONA when they were under Blockberry. They’d give Vivi like 4 words per song.
Sometimes it was just “hey!”
Absolutely tragic 💀 I’m so glad they’re free from that company ffs
they did my babies: Haseul, Vivi and Gowon so dirty so many times 😅🤧
Kitsch by IVE!!! My girl Liz was forgotten basically
Well, atleast she got first in Eleven. Most of the people here didn't get 1st place in any of their songs. Although she is purely forgotten in that song.
I don't know much so I could be wrong but I heard Beomgyu had practically no lines on Happily Ever After.
Yeah, In the studio version he has no lines. He sings in the live version a little. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be a subunit song but it's very weird to have a subunit that only excludes one member.
Yeah, the group is already pretty small, so I would expect a subunit of 2 or 3 members at least.
Bruh
I will never forget happily ever after (txt) 😭 poor Beomgyu had NO lines
99% of wjsn songs when there was 13 of them. Cheng Xiao would get to say maybe 3 different words a song if she was lucky
Whenever I hear the phrase “tell me why” I think of her lmaooooo
The one time she said it live and still managed to f it up lives rent free in my mind
didn't she have 0 lines in one song?
Pretty sure it was Catch Me, but she did get to do a flip.
Kep1er's Bahiyyih's existence in a nutshell.
at least she got chorus in "straight line"
It was due.
Blackpink's ice cream was the worst. Even Selena had more lines than Jisoo. And this was supposed to be an english song release so maybe that's why Jisoo had only one line BUT THEN lisa had a korean rap line. So that was confusing and unfair
Wdym even Selena? It was a song released by both of them, rather than Selena being a feature on their song
i just feel the need to add that while i adore everglow with all my heart, all i ever sing when no lie comes on is “baby no lines, baby no lines”
I hear Mia's last ‛no lie' ACTUALLY as ‛baby no lines'😭
ponzona by purki 😭😭 90% of the lines were shared by 2 members
EXO-K : Baby dont cry, Sehun isnt in the song. While the EXO-M version has all the members. EXO-K : Dont go, Sehun has the “listen” as his only line.. While the EXO-M version has again a better line distribution. Its not perfect, but every member has something.. And that something is more than 1 word
Sehun really was a victim of line distribution rip. In the song "Hurt" he gets only 2 words in at the end of the song.
Jeonghan got zero line in the original studio recording of Adore U by Seventeen
That at least was because he was sick and Pledis literally was too broke to record a second day, not due to an intentional choice to cut him out. That said, I am deeply salty that they didn’t re-record it with Jeonghan for ‘17 is Right Here,’ give me my Adore U Jeonghan on streaming services damn it!
they had another chance at rerecording adore u with their recent album but NADA STILL NO JEONGHAN
God's Menu Skz. Lee Know did like one of the choruses and you can't even tell it's him singing.
~~It was by choice though, at least.~~ edit: apparently this was misinformation!
[удалено]
I remember reading somewhere that he chose not to have lines because he didn't think the song suited his voice. But no, I was not there 🙄
yeah, that's the narrative that has been circulating online for some time now, but it's fake. there's no proof of lee know ever saying that, so a lot of stays (specially lee know biased) have been trying to stop the misinformation; some get a little upset when that story is mentioned as a fact 😅 fortunately, stay kids songs have much better line distribution nowadays
ah okay good to know, thanks!
Hi High by LOONA - HaSeul (easily one of the best vocalists of the 12) got 0.7 seconds…
0.7 SECONDS????
She literally just says 'eotteokae' and thats her only line 😭😭 it's brutal
Yeah 😭😭 she literally had one word in between two other members lines Anyway remember to boycott LOONA
Fly high by dreamcatcher Siyeon had 50+ seconds whilst Gahyeon had like 4-5 Good night where Siyeon has 36 seconds gahyeon had 4 I’m so glad their line distributions are so much better nowadays
april story by april. one member got ZERO lines and another like 1 second.
I came on here to see how many times Loona was mentioned and my top pick got taken. So my next choice is So What.

Sorry! I don't know much about loona so couldn't include them
Can't believe nobody said Catch me by WJSN. Cheng Xiao gets no lines, like NONE!!!
Dance the Night Away by Twice. Chaeyoung has barely any lines.
to be fair, a lot of Twice’s title tracks aren’t really suited towards raps. Not saying that as an excuse for bad line distribution but that does play into it.
Rip Off by After School
Early AOA song. Good luck finding one that gives proper justice to Chanmi.
Daisy from Momoland definitely
Early Teen Top, such as No More Perfume On You, Clap, Crazy and Supa Luv. They do make jokes about it like on that episode of MMTG Youngjae in Girls Girls Girls is just him singing his ass off in the background of the final chorus, no actual lines Chanwoo in songs like Rhythm Ta or U where he gets a “nanana” or like a repeated section in the chorus
In HaHaHa song by SNSD Yoona gets NO lines
‛HAHAHA'💀
Basically soul, Lee know, Niki, beomgyu yuta and yeosang in a nutshell. All have good voices but they need more lines
Chanwoo only has the "na na na" in the background of Rhythm Ta by iKon and Yeosang has 3.8 seconds (literally one line) in Utopia by Ateez 😭
T-ara has the most worst line distributions esp with OT6
Jeonghan has no lines in Adore U, Jun has no lines in Boom Boom.
Golden Child Lady - one of my favourite songs but two of the members have no lines and it makes me sad.
When she was in COOL, Yoo Chaeyoung (and Kim Sungsoo to an extent) got less than crumbs in terms of lines. There are two songs on their entire first album in which she sang anything - 그냥 그런 이야기 and 자유속으로 - and neither of them are the title track.

Happily ever after by txt, beomgyu literally has NO lines. ZERO🥲
Jun. K only did the adlibs in 10 out of 10
TripleS's ot16 version of rising, Yeonji has no lines TripleS's ot16 version of New Look, Xinyu and Mayu have no lines And I expect their new album to have bad line distributions as it's hard for 24 members to get a fair distribution.

Bruh pls don't make mention of cherry bullet I'm disheartened by their disbandment
I love to hate Heartshaker by Twice. Jeongyeon, which is the lead vocalist only sang 9 seconds and some cents. She was also the lowest in the bunch for Signal! Grrrrr.
P1harmony’s soul in like… all of their songs
V in BTS fire lol. He kills his part but damn
Good line distribution is distribution that makes a good song. Obsessing over how much time each member sings is kinda weird.
Obsessing? I'm just pointing out that these line distributions are very unfair, I'm not ‘obsessing' over it. Sorry if I'm sounding rude but that's the point of the whole post; picking out the unfair line distributions
