Comparing The Line Distributions For The Debut Vs. Most Recent Single Of 15 Of The Most Popular K-Pop Boy Groups

Some lines have really evened out!

As a K-Pop group progresses with its career, oftentimes there are changes to how the group presents itself, which members are given more or fewer lines than others, and other such changes as the members learn each others’ strengths and weaknesses.

There are many groups who have clearly changed their member with the most lines, or have visibly more even lines than when they debuted.
