I absolutely agree with this. I actually think most people are ambiverts. Introvert and Extrovert are both definitions that describe the total opposites, but how many people can really say "oh, I´m totally an introvert". If we use idols as an example, there are a lot of idols who come out very shy, not very talkative at first, but their bandmates would say "oh, he just seems so, but once you get to know him, he is really loud and talkative!" that´s not exactly an introvert is it? and yet, such a person might not feel the need to be too social, too friendly. we are all somewhere on the spectrum, neither 100% of this and neither 100% that.I mean, most people are to some extent lmao
unless they post their exact mbti scores, it’s hard to tell: ik someone irl who comes off as a massive extravert—affable, sociable, all that jazz—but falls within the bottom one percentile of extroverts. I think ambivert falls between the 40-60 percent range iirc??? still, it’s a flawed system since it only shows you what your perception of yourself is, which can lead into the tangent of identity and what constitutes of it exactly—is it yourself, your own perception of yourself, others’ perception of you, or something else?
your last part i 100% agree with, even if you look at BTS for an example you cannot consider Suga to be 80-90% introvert even if he is one of the most quiet members of the group since his whole life revolves around being around others. He has more moments than say J-Hope of wanting to be alone and not talk to people, but he still has a level of extraversion since it's necessary for him to put himself out there without burning out quickly.I absolutely agree with this.

I´d actually say it might be harder to find (an idol or not) someone who is 80-90% introvert or 80-90% extrovert, especially in the business where you have to perform, do interviews and be totally surrounded by people. I think most introverts are now shaking a bit in fear :D.
yeah and the tell tale signs of someone being an introvert (long periods of socialization where they end up visibly tired as opposed to how shy they may be because shy extraverts are a thing) tend by be hid well by the expectations that idols remain smiley and happy looking 24/7your last part i 100% agree with, even if you look at BTS for an example you cannot consider Suga to be 80-90% introvert even if he is one of the most quiet members of the group since his whole life revolves around being around others.

even if you look at the outwardly extroverted idols you have Han and Mingi who have had to take hiatuses due to social anxiety and other things that are exacerbated by being an idol
