IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: (G)I-DLE Shuhua Has Fans Fawning Over Steamy Dancing In Latest Performance
In the post, the author shared a screenshot from a Soyeon fan account, which featured the lyrics of Soyeon's solo performance during the group's concerts in Seoul on August 3 and 4. In the lyrics, Soyeon slams idols who can't sing, calling them "tone-deaf clowns" and stating they don't belong in the industry. Her lyrics read,
"Little kids, move out of my lane,
If you want to dance, then go be a dancer, okay?
Tone-deaf clowns, you do not belong in this game,
If you're a singer, grab the mic or back off,
If you're a rapper, pen your bars, step up to play
Korean netizens who saw the post couldn't help but mock Soyeon's lyrics. They believed calling out other fourth-generation idols was hypocritical when her co-member, Shuhua, has repeatedly been called out for her live vocals.
I don't care, I'll scream it out, I'm not scared,Hey little puppy, act like a dog."

Ever since her debut, Shuhua has been slammed for her vocal ability, with some claiming she is tone-deaf and not as talented as her members. Others have complained about her pronunciation, pointing out that Yuqi and Minnie are foreigners but sound like native speakers in their songs.
Others believe Soyeon was not in a place to talk since her members cannot sing live.

Some were more aggressive towards Soyeon, stating that being pretty is an idol's job, and criticized her looks.
