Although Wendys head voice extends up to a G6 she is only able to support up to Bb5 which by pop standards is very good, definitely above the average. 0:58? Bb4 0:10 and B4 for Somin sounds fine, she support with a bit of closing of her throat around the B4s the second time around but it may have been a diction thing or vowel problem, but she is not bad at all.

I dont hear what you hear about her being fuller or heavier. 2:44 How was that F#5? Ok So Wendys a quite well-rounded vocalist, has decent development of all ranges from lower to mixed and upper ranges as well as vocal runs. Her main issues lie in her inconsistency with her resonance and not always maintaining a very forward and open sound in her mix and head voice. Even, I do not hear her voice in chorus like red flavor, and many more. She wasnt singing with as good of an equipment so the quality isnt as clear but she sounds fairly similar. Wendy is far more advanced in vocal technique, while no member of blackpink has grasped a basic sense of breath support and technique. 2:25 Joy is back, she has again a small mouth shape, not allowing for her voice to truly project and her tone is shaky. Wendy has a style of singing that is heavily based in the R&B/Soul genre which is very much known for its complex and extravagant melismas, therefore, naturally, Wendy developed her ability to do runs.
