That and Japanese groups always sing live no matter what. That's always been a thing in Jpop. Kpop is more clean because they tend to chase perfection so they usually either pre-record vocals or they lip sync entirely. I don't think it's necessarily a Hybe thing that this is live, it's a Jpop thing.

TXT Bluehour is a really difficult song to sing live, it has lots of highnotes and run-offs. The choreography seems easy but it's actually not, specially when you're also singing it live. I, too was nervous for them at first but they've managed to perform it well. The facial expressions didn't seem forced, it just feels natural, and as for the very first group to perform, tho i didn't know why EJ's team wanted to be the first one to perform cuz its absolutely nerve-wracking😭, I'll give them that clap.

They should include mentor's feedback on Fuma, he deserves a screentime he did really great in his overall performance.. he served great vocals, dance, facial expressions and the cheerful fresh feeling in their performance..

Any survival show would always do that, and it’s kind of disappointing since sometimes the talented one’s can’t debut. I remember in ILand, for me in terms of overall talent, K would made it to the final line-up. But then, they had different plans for him. I feel like this survival show is just to help the upcoming group to boost the fan base and the producers already have their final line-up in mind. This is my own opinion, no hate pls 😅

[@jeynermartinfrondozo3027]

I think they gave Harua more screentime in this episode is because they are the only group who is going to perform in this episode,and it is like the story of the 4 members growth. And Yejun just have his recognition and own spotlight now compared to episode 1 and Harua's special talent didnt even release. So I guess Harua deserves the screentime he got now.

I feel you. I am already so hooked. My heart couldn't take it if he wouldn't debut. Did you saw that he got a BLACK Ball? I thunk it could mean something. Will members that will get the debut get a Black Ball? Or will the get a benefit in the next Performance?

It really sinked in to me how hard this song is especially if you both have to sing and dance. I loooveee TXT and they have all my respect because of this! I realised how stable they sing live plus the choreo, they are really amazing!!! Also, EJ, Fuma, Harua and Yejun did well performing this song. I wish for them 4 to be in 1 group jebaaaal!!! After watching this, Harua and EJ grew on me. 🥺❤️. I can see Soobin on them 💕

[@HorangiTae]

Everyone from EJ's team did so well. But as hybe did not feel the necessity of showing Fuma's feedback or could be judges didnt give any, i feel obligated to praise him as much as possible because out of all of them he had most of the lines, including starting the song and he danced with stability. He did so well that he can already debut with this much talent no question ask. He was afraid of not matching with other members but he blended more than perfectly. He made the song his own and put out the performance everyone desired. Thank you Fuma for that. He worked really hard and he showed it with his performance. All the praises for Fuma. Hoping for your debut and future success ✨

Honestly as a MOA, I think this concept suited each member, they all did very well in their own way. I think Yejun not only has a pretty face, but also a beautiful voice, from the signal song I could tell that. I loved this team, fighting Ej, Fuma, Harua & Yejun, I'm rooting for you

[@deeno056]

I'm rewatching a year later and the boys have improved so much it's crazy T^T To think that every single one of them has grown and developed so much not just through their performances but also through their attitude and professionalism makes me so proud; especially seeing how EJ had taken his first leader role here--his group placed last, but now he's grown to the point of being capable enough to be the leader of &TEAM

[@amalmed9753]

[@duhnix_]

While watching team Ej's performance, I'm really shocked and impressed with them. As a moa who watched TXT performed "Blue hour" I can say that it's really hard to perform live and sing without lip synching, but they really did it! I'm nervous when they started performing, but in the end I feel proud and happy for them and to the performance they've shown.

Fuma caught my eyes the most. In my opinion, he was the most stable on the stage and his voice suited the song the most too. All the other three did very well but I'm just disappointed that the mentors didn't say a single word of compliment to Fuma or maybe they did which is not aired. I hope Fuma knows that we, the audience have watched him and are admiring him!!!!
