Note: Rei confirmed her height is 170 cm (5’7″) (Source). Yujin confirmed her height as 173 cm (5’8″) (Source).
Note 2: Rei herself confirmed she is the main rapper. (Source (1:53))
Note 3: Leeseo and Wonyoung‘s dance positions have been confirmed on their official Melon profile.
Editor’s comment regarding the member’s positions: In the article many believed claimed that Yujin is the official main vocalist, that was not confirmed. The article praises Yujin’s vocals saying, “In the case of Yujin, the charm of her vocals doubled. The vocal teacher praised, ‘I focused on singing in a variety of tones while adjusting the speed.'” along with later in the article, “‘When I think of the member who is exceptionally good at vocals in Ive, Yujin is the first that comes to mind.'” Nowhere in that text does the author say anything about a main vocalist position, therefor until a confirmation I will not give anyone the position of Main Vocalist.
However, that article does indeed confirm Gaeul as the main dancer. Once translated to English, the article states “Autumn is the main dancer of certainty. She made a mark with her powerful performance that contrasted with her innocent appearance. Even in group dance, they dominated the stage with neat dance lines.” The text says Autumn because Gaeul means Autumn in Korean.
Gaeul’s Lead Rapper position has been confirmed on their official Melon profile.
