Who Has the Most Lines in T-Ara?

DISCLAIMER: The percentages represented below are not 100% accurate, but they are 98% accurate. The comments below are my opinion, however. Please do not interpret them negatively.

I conducted this experiment a while ago - simply because I was curious. I took 8 of T-Ara's hit Korean songs (Sexy Love, Day by Day, Cry Cry, Lovey Dovey, Bo Peep Bo Peep, I Go Crazy Because of You, Roly Poly, and Yayaya) and caluclated how many individual lines each member gets. I only counted the individual lines - and here are the results. Note: I have accounted for how many songs each member appears in.

Anybody whos watched a T-Ara MV or two knows that Jiyeon is the center of attention. That's fine - Jiyeon is a "triple threat" - singer, dancer, and actor. Queens know that Soyeon is the main vocalist, but how many lines does each member really get?  I personally hypothesized that Jiyeon and Eunjung would have the most lines, and Qri would have the least. Before you read on, make a guess yourself - who do you think will have the most and least lines?

Boram: 7%
Qri: 7%
Soyeon: 25%
Eunjung: 14%
Hyomin: 19%
Hwayoung: 19%
Jiyeon: 13%
Ahreum: 11%

Soyeon clearly has the most lines - in songs, her amount of lines range from 17% to a whopping 48% in some songs. Ahreum, despite being in only two songs, has more lines than Boram and Qri. Jiyeon and Eunjung don't have as many lines as expected - they are only at 13-14%. Hyomin and Hwayoung sneak to the top with 19% each - a reasonable amount too. Do not let these numbers fool you, however - most of Hwayoung and Ahreum's lines are rapping parts. In Lovey Dovey, Qri is limited to half a line, and the beginning rap parts.

So, what do you think? Who do you think has the prettiest voice in T-ara? I've always adored Eunjung's voice. Let me know!
