About SaiDa
Sana and Dahyun are both members of TWICE (JYP). Sana, a Japanese member, is a sub-vocalist; Dahyun is a lead rapper and one of the group's best-known variety personalities. Fans pair them as SaiDa, a ship built on their contrasting on-camera comedy dynamic. It is an early-era fan favorite within the ONCE fandom.
A popular early-peak pairing (roughly 2016 to 2018) that remains a nostalgic favorite among ONCEs, with entries on TWICE fan wikis.
Fun facts
- β¦ The ship name SaiDa plays on 'saida' (the Korean word for lemon-lime soda), so the spelling keeps the 'i'.
- β¦ Dahyun's playful 'Shy, shy, shy' teasing of Sana's Cheer Up aegyo is a recurring bit fans love.
- β¦ Their dynamic pairs Sana's affectionate side with Dahyun's comedic deflecting.
