Seventeen Members Special

Bias: Woozi

I’m really so obsessed with Seventeen recently! I just love everything they do, from performances to chill and crazy moments in Going Seventeen. I love them all dearly, but I will save my appreciation post for other members for next time. Today, I’ll just talk about my top 2!

Woozi

Honestly, I adore all the Seventeen members, but I really can’t deny - Woozi is one of the backbones (if not the ultimate backbone member) of the whole group.

- I definitely think he’s the most overworked member of Seventeen. Arguably one of the most overworked in Kpop?

- Main producer and songwriter. As part of this, he also checks and approves the lyrics made by the rap line.

I am so convinced he is a music genius!

Great vocals! - I was honestly so surprised when I first heard “Home” raw live vocals in a radio show (in YouTube). Him singing “어쩌겠어 난 네가 없으면” in the chorus gave me chills. It was a short line but it was done so perfectly, so cleanly and powerfully, even better than what’s in the recording. I doubted for a second that it was recorded and if it was really him, but it was 100% live Woozi!

Instrument king - Can play piano, guitar, drums, and even clarinet. There could be more, but I’m already so amazed! (Big fan of instruments here, especially those who were classically trained like Woozi, because classical music really isn’t easy!) If I keep talking about this, I will never end this post. He’s amazing!

Composer, songwriter and producer of beautiful songs! - As I mentioned, Seventeen’s songs are really my vibe, from first listen until now, I really love their music. And I just keep enjoying it more the more I listen to it. Knowing that a member wrote, composed, and produced the song really made me a fan girl. Woozi is so talented! I actually just saw a video yesterday where a popular songwriter for kpop chose Woozi as the songwriting idol that is able to write great lyrics. (Update: I’ve now seen so many professional lyricists, producers, and A&Rs randomly praising Woozi’s talent in random interviews that aren’t Seventeen-related.)

I just wanna add that Woozi is still so young (96 line) but he’s sitting at the top of the list of idols with most song credits, along with other idols who are older than him! And to think he actually composes and arranges whole songs too, rather than just writing lyrics like most people do! He’s already got more than 100 credits, considering he only started about 5 years ago. This guy is a machine! He must be so rich even just with loyalties! No wonder he always treats Seventeen members to meals. (Yes, stan this very generous leader too!)

Great dancer - Just being a member of Seventeen already proves you’re a great dancer (no dance hole of any kind at all in Seventeen!). But I even saw a comment from a professional dancer in YouTube once who said that Woozi is one of the best dancers he’s seen in kpop. (I also just learned he actually used to be in the Performance unit as a trainee and was supposed to be SVT main leader but he declined!)

I’ve never heard him rap, but they say he can rap well too? Not surprising, considering he actually checks the lyrics the rap line writes (and makes them re-write it if it doesn’t fit his standards for the song). Lol I stan meticulous Woozi.

Yes, your bias can produce, your bias can compose, your bias can sing and dance, and play instruments. But how many people can do all of those as good as Woozi does?! True genius.

Watching videos of him in the studio, especially when working with the rest of the Seventeen members, will leave you in awe. He is so wise and handles recordings well.

And you know what’s crazy? With his skill level, it looks like he formally studied all this in a focused school before becoming an idol, but no! Woozi learned it after joining the company, about a year before debut, he learned from Bumzu. Considering how hard being a trainee already is and considering how he was still finishing high school back then, he still managed to learn songwriting and music production and actually be excellent at it. My dear. Bumzu himself said Woozi picked things up easily and he really thinks Woozi is a genius. (I actually don’t know if he actually developed his music production skill more in university or not. If he did, that would be even more impressive because Seventeen was already pretty popular after debut, and going to college/finishing the requirements would be extremely hard on top of all his Seventeen work.)

His brain is already too amazing, but his passion is even crazier. He works so hard on music because he really loves it. He still does so much work for Seventeen at the back end despite the whole group already being so busy!

I am fully convinced Woozi was made for the music industry. The amount of talent contained in this one person is too much! I can’t take it anymore!

At this point, I think I’m just gonna seal it in that Woozi is my ult.

Probably except for Hui (Pentagon), I’m not as impressed by any other kpop idol as I am with Woozi. (I’d gladly accept more suggestions of super-talented idols like Woozi if more people like him exists.)

*Technically, Woozi isn’t underrated because Seventeen is popular and isn’t underrated. But for the amount of talent this sole person has, gee, he really has to be recognized by the whole kpop world, even the whole world.

You might not stan Woozi, you might not even stan Seventeen, but you gotta admit, he is one of the most talented people out there!

//update: May 2021. I first wrote this when I didn’t really know much about Woozi’s character apart from his hard work and passion for music. I’ve stanned them longer now, and I’ve definitely learned more about him. And I now I’m head over heels for his generosity, kindness (despite showing a “cold” side sometimes, like a true tsundere), his honesty (in writing, too) and most especially his humility. He’s also so witty, honestly! And I love how he laughs at everything the members do. Overall, he’s just a truly amazing person. 🥲 I wish there were more of him in this world, but no, there is only one Lee Jihoon of Seventeen. //end of update

Anyway, I originally planned for this to be a short appreciation post on Woozi + Hoshi as my two favorites, but Woozi is too much! He needs a lot of space because he’s too amazing! (So Hoshi will probably be in the next post.)

If anyone is still unconvinced, here’s an entire Reddit thread about him. Yes, shocker, there’s more to learn!

KNB x SEVENTEEN 🌸

Say the name!! KNB Seventeen! 💎

As promised, here is my take on a KNB x SEVENTEEN

Disclaimer: This is my own opinion and in no way do I claim that character-member matches are 100% accurate ☺️

︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵　　‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵

👑 KASAMATSU - S. COUPS (Choi Seungheol) 👑

YOU. CANNOT. DENY. THE. RESEMBLANCE.

He immediately reminded me of Kasamatsu the first time I saw him

Dependable leaders: both the best in my opinion (out of the few Kpop groups I stan and in the KNB universe, apart from Akashi)

Excellent athletes

Great senpai/hyung

Both Leos

👑 MURASAKIBARA - JEONGHAN (Yoon Jeonghan) 👑

Lazy but talented

Powerful athletes (seriously, have you seen Jeonghan play sports? He’s good at almost everything!)

Easily one of the best basketball players

Lives the easy life (JH survived OFD effortlessly)

Both shampoo models

Both Libras

Are soft angels until you cross them

👑 HIMURO - VERNON (Hansol Chwe) & JOSHUA (Hong Jisoo) 👑

Practically grew up in the US

Imported

Gentlemen

Also pretty quiet, like to keep to themselves

Often with Jeonghan/Murasakibara* (they’re team mates: Yosen/Vocal team)

I HC he looks more like Vernon though

See also: Joshua

👑 TEPPEI - JUN (Wen Junhui) 👑

Wise

Underrated

Usually quiet, lets everyone else do their shit

MORE LINES MORE SCREEN TIME I BEG OF YOU

Both Geminis

👑 KOTARO - HOSHI (Kwon Soonyoung) 👑

HYPER

Somehow always full of energy?

Like to get things started, always game face on

Always have a smile on their faces

Both look like tigers ?

👑 MIDORIMA - WONWOO (Jeon Wonwoo) 👑

Keep to themselves

Quiet

Both Cancers

Both wear specs ;)

Sophisticated and classy!

I don’t know man Wonwoo really reminds me of Midorin 🤔

Midorin’s afraid of cats, Wonwoo of dogs

👑 AKASHI - WOOZI (Lee Jihoon) 👑

Brains behind everything

Priceless

Incredibly talented

No Woozi/Akashi = No SVT/GOM

No chill, stressed most of the time

Everyone’s afraid of him

But he’s still adorable though

Smaller than his teammates

RICH (Akashi -being Akashi; Woozi - royalties)

Both Sagittarius (though Woozi’s a Scorpio/Sagi cusp)

Can play musical instruments

Woozi: “He views himself as being very calm, serious and careful.”

👑 KISE - DK (Lee Seokmin) 👑

Loud

The group’s designated ball of sunshine!

Love to sing as well! (Context: Kise loves karaoke and DK’s a main vocalist)

Smiles are practically plastered on their faces and are bright enough to blind you

DK: “He says he likes to spend his time cheerfully so he likes to make others feel energetic but sometimes it can get out of control so he needs to have more self control.”
