[Article] The Grievances of Main Vocalists in Girl Groups

[AyusakiFan]

When I was first getting into SNSD/Girls' Generation's music, I found a video that contained a collection of interviews, t.v performances, etc. that was focused solely on Taeyeon. The video showed clips of her in a negative light, showing her kind of nudging members aside to move to the front or center during interviews after performances as well as other things of that nature. Although it didn't make me dislike her completely, I assumed that she was a little attention hungry and just wanted to be front and center all the time. After reading this article, my perspective has been changed and I feel differently about her behavior in those situations. While I'm not condoning just moving other people aside like that, I can understand why as a lead vocalist she felt that she deserved to be in that position. When you're a lead vocalist, I do think that it's fair that you are front and center most if not all the time but sadly as the article reported, that's not the case. Thank you so much for posting this article. It really gave me a different outlook on something I never paid attention to before.
