A History of Criticism

Despite their status as one of the leading girl groups in the industry, IVE has faced its fair share of criticism, particularly regarding their live singing abilities.

Past controversies surrounding lip-syncing have fueled debates about the authenticity of their performances, casting a shadow over their otherwise stellar reputation.

A New Narrative Emerges

However, it appears that the tide is turning in favor of IVE, as the group showcased remarkable improvement in their live vocals during their latest appearance.

Netizens, known for their unfiltered opinions, flooded online platforms with praise for the group's performance, signaling a shift in the public perception of their singing prowess.

A Performance to Remember

On May 2, KST, IVE took to the stage to perform their latest single, "HEYA," captivating audiences with their powerful vocals and captivating stage presence.

The group's live rendition of the song earned them accolades from fans and critics alike, who commended their raw talent and authentic delivery.

Netizens' Reactions

Commenting on the performance, netizens couldn't contain their excitement, with many expressing their admiration for IVE's vocal abilities:

• "Ahn Yujin's live adlib was f*cking refreshing..."
• "It's likable because it has that Korean vibe."
• "Why is Leeseo's part so good? Was Leeseo always this good?"
• "The live was good and Annyeongs (Yujin and Wonyoung) are such eye-candies TT."
• "Ahn Yujin's last adlib sounded like it was almost raw live. They always have very little AR, only in the choruses."
• "Leeseo's vocals are really underrated."
• "I don't understand why people criticize IVE. If you want to listen to cool and atmospheric music, just find something that suits your taste. They clearly know IVE's fanbase is young but they say IVE is failing because they're outdated...IVE tries out a different style every time and don't really have much to criticize in their songs. Instead of beating them down because you don't like them personally, just ignore them and don't watch, LOL."
• A Promising Future

With their recent performance serving as a testament to their growth and talent, IVE is poised to continue captivating audiences with their electrifying performances and undeniable charm.
