- Well, I mean, anyone can tell Jisoo’s a stiff dancer even from afar.
- I don’t know why you’re trying to make this an issue.
- We can’t say that Rei is the best dancer, but she’s not stiff to the point where it stands out. She’s not comparable to Jisoo.
- Not really though? Are you unfamiliar with Jisoo?
- You’re saying Rei is a stiff dancer? I’ve never thought of that before, so this post is taking me aback.
Rei debuted as a member of IVE under Starship Entertainment in 2021 and has consistently been praised for her unique visuals, voice, and multilingual skills. With her adorable charisma and rap skills, dancing should not even be an issue!
