Netizens Defend IVE After Their Stellar Lollapalooza Performance
IVE delivered a breathtaking performance at Lollapalooza, leaving fans and netizens buzzing with admiration. The group’s live set has quickly become a hot topic online, especially after a viral post titled “IVE Was Supposed To Be Next But” gained significant traction. As of now, the post has accumulated over 128,000 views.
Viral Post Sparks Debate
The viral post discussed how fans of LE SSERAFIM had been eagerly waiting to criticize IVE’s performance. Following the LE SSERAFIM Coachella controversy, many expected IVE to fall short, providing an opportunity to undermine them. Instead, IVE’s performance exceeded expectations, leading to a flurry of praise from viewers.
The post reads:
“After LE SSERAFIM’s Coachella controversy, Koreans were waiting for IVE to screw up so they can hate on them. LE SSERAFIM fans were also waiting for IVE to mess their live performance up and then claim that LE SSERAFIM’s Coachella performance was better and the group wasn’t all that bad, lol. They must have been shocked to see IVE f*cking kill it on stage. Liz was the epitome of a main vocalist, Ahn Yujin was always great but she leveled up, Leeseo stood out with the texture of her vocals and Jang Wonyoung-Gaeul improved so much that I thought they signed a contract with Ursula (from Little Mermaid).”
Netizens’ Reactions and Comparisons
Following the post, netizens expressed their support for IVE and compared them favorably to LE SSERAFIM. Here are some highlights from their reactions:
“I can’t tell which group, between LE SSERAFIM and IVE, is with the major company. IVE is prettier, taller, has better bodies, more skilled, and Jang Wonyoung-Ahn Yujin’s star quality is unmatched…. Hmm, LOL. How did Starship pull this off? They were lucky to have signed these idols. If Starship had the capabilities of HYBE, IVE would be untouchable.”
“IVE members are really persistent. Lol. There are some idols who cry on camera and go eat Malatang after instead of practicing.”
“This comment is written on mobile. There was a noticeable difference in vocal abilities between the two groups from the start. LE SSERAFIM rarely does live performances, while IVE has been putting in a lot of effort with live performances since their debut. If you watch their concerts, IVE is the group that feels like they deliver the best live performances among 4th-generation female idols. It’s genuine live singing, not just AR (Auto-Tune) mix. On the other hand, LE SSERAFIM has quite a bit of lip-syncing in their concerts. Furthermore, IVE has a bonafide main vocalist in Liz, and the vocal strengths of Rei and Yujin also contribute to their good live performances. Even though Iseo’s vocal color can be divisive, she has always performed well live. Jang Wonyoung and Gaeul’s vocals were a bit weak initially, but they have significantly improved recently.”
“IVE’s live performances aren’t just average but are really exceptional, so there’s nothing more to say about it, haha. I’m sure even LE SSERAFIM fans must have thought, ‘Oh, we’re screwed,’ because the difference in their performance levels is so stark, haha.”
“Fans of LE SSERAFIM are probably in despair, as their attempts to compete haven’t worked out, haha.”
“They go crazy with their live performances even while wearing princess costumes.”
