Unless your so starved for Aespa vocals you think 4 lives in 1 whole fukin year is a lot. Their only big live stage wasn't even in Korea, but Coachella in America where they HAD to sing live or they'd be a joke to the country.

[@purpleantidote6120]

With Ateez's Guerrilla choreo, you'd expect more like 50% lipsync 50% live. 75% live is actually incredible when you see how hard they go, and how damn good they still sound. Truly captivating. Plus when they are lipsyncing, they're not just mouthing the words- they're usually doing the most interesting facial expressions so it feels super theatrical. They give a whole damn immersive show.

[@addyarts2932]

This is a little out of nowhere but I learned ateez's halazia choreo earlier during dance class and let me tell you - my respect for them keeps growing the more I learn their choreos! I could hardly breathe let alone sing after dancing to only the chorus of the song!? Like gee how insane of a performer can one be? Truly incredible

[@mev9752]

Only the main vocal is the only singer to go fully live cuz the guy actually give himself his moment to actually sing , the other are the rappers ( not singing ). The rest rely too much in backtrack cuz they can’t sing well while dancing all out ( they try tho , but the result will be them out of breath ), in orden to do that they need to train as a Broadway singer or jk of BTS.

[@purpleantidote6120]

@@mev9752 JK does have some mighty lungs on him but I think even he'd struggle to be fully live and hitting all the notes with choreo as hard as guerrilla or halazia tbh! Also members of BTS also sometimes have relied heavily on loud backtrack such as Jimin and V, esp during Fake Love era.

[@mev9752]

@@purpleantidote6120 he doesn’t sing on the adlibs of the backtrack , but he still sing after that , specially in concerts cuz he has to sing too much and the time he doesn’t sing is when he is sick or was sick or has problem with his earpiece ( which is a technical problem ). Example : in the Grammy performance of butter is like the one time ( the other was in a concert when it was like s joke ) he doesn’t sing the vocal run of “bad” part while he spins around , ( hitting every move ) cuz he just had COVID. Meanwhile in the other performances he does perfectly specially if they have to perform one time ( TV or award shows ). Even for one time the rest of the singers , like Beyoncé can’t do that. Even MJ couldn’t sing in all the dance performances choreo so he had to put a backtrack ( you can tell he wasn’t singing)

[@flaggov6949]

Actually, sometimes they are neither singing live or lipsyncing. I've noticed San has parts where he regularly doesn't sing or move his mouth with the backing track (probably because he's pre-decided he needs to catch his breath in that spot). I respect that. It also makes it move obvious that he's mostly live when he starts singing again.

[@luisab3079]

Something really annoying I noticed while watching KBS gayo (for some groups) was that while in the official video you could barely hear the idols and their voices only peaked through occasionally, in videos recorded from the audience it turned out they were actually singing the entire thing beautifully (and audibly!), KBS just turned their mics down in the official version. And I just don't get why they do that, they sound great in the fancams, it's really unnecessary. 😭

[@purpleantidote6120]

Esp true in the ateez one! I was shocked at how loud they really were in the fancams

[@flaggov6949]

I've noticed that a lot for most music shows. If I can't hear them, I first go to the official fancams (solves it most of the time) and then to fan-filmed videos if needed.

[@pandaman9490]

That’s why I never understood how people could make videos on how much groups sing live using the official audios. It’s so hard to distinguish sometimes, and the audio used could very well be a shaky-pre recorded version that sounds live. Unless they’re dying for breath, I usually don’t “believe” in official audios.

[@thylionheart]

Yeah when I went to see Stray Kids live I was floored by Lee Know’s live vocals, not because I was “shocked” that he has a good voice because I knew he does, his voice is lovely, but I didn’t think he could project his voice as much as the others solely because the way most music shows are mixed, his vocals sound the quietest even when I can tell that yes, he’s singing over the backing track-it’s faint but I can hear it. But my word, that man can PROJECT. His voice was so clear and loud and maybe not flawless (whose voice is after 15 choreos) but beautiful all the same.

I tried to get this out sooner but SBS kept blocking some footage, so sorry for the dark contrast on everything. I find end of year award shows the most fun to watch since groups get freedom to chose their stages and if they will sing live (unlike perhaps Inkigayo or MCoutdown for example). As a result we surprisingly get a ton of super rare live performances/ solo stages you'll never get to see. I never realized how much of the 4th gen was overrun by Hybe either until this...

[@mio26k82]

It's just so hard to find live performance now especially in music shows.

@@vaniakanti593 nah , SM would never let them sing live while dancing cuz they know they can’t sing while dancing fully. Actually most of the singers in the industry in general can’t , only Broadway singers, and in kpop Industry the only one that do that is Jk and jhope with rapping. The main vocals of TXT and lsf have pontencial tho. But you need to train like jk or a Broadway singer. Before it wasn’t needed to go all dancing while singing but BTS made it a trend so now everyone tries , but without the proper training, so they just lipsync or loud backtrack. Pd: all of you got fool or don’t understand what I meant , DANCING hard choreo hitting every move at the same time as singing . None of the 2 gen did that lol specially SM lol. The only close to that was 2pm but you can tell they weren’t hitting that hard or chordinate , BTS made popular hard hitting choreo while dancing cuz that’s one of the reason they starting trending in international platforms like social media tumlr , people though they were a dance team lol. But most of that was posible cuz jk of the way jk trained his voice while working out , and the rest rest practice their choreo with mask ( so they can get used to less oxygen). All that singing “while dancing “ from the groups people are mentioning , that you heard is backtrack , playback or simply they aren’t even dancing that hard so they can sing. For example they put the chorus of their song just the track so the members can do the choreo specially if the chorus is all of them “singing together “. Like SM do all the time. Seriously are you even that naive ? Edit : the comments don’t know how to read ?! I said HITTING every move , other idols sing and dance but the aren’t dancing all the way out or singing all the way out , the only one I have seen doing that is jk and jhope with rapping.

Yeah the amount of hate they get over vocals is crazy when they are actually having quite a lot of live performances. Like you said they have even done a no vocal backtrack performance on Blue Dragon Awards.. how often do we see that from 4th gen groups? Nobody should be faulting them for not trying to perform live at very least, no matter what you think of their abilities.

[@eduuuardo18]

For people who are surprised that NMIXX used a considered percentage of lypsync (even though the percentages in the videos are not entirely correct, so don't take it too seriously), remember that this is due to a new modeling and readaptation precisely because of Jinni's departure from the group, so much so that the first performance without Jinni was almost completely lypsync. It wasn't even 1 month since Jinni left NMIXX and they were already performing (precisely because of their schedules), let's say that their last performances were a mess but more because of these inconvenient occurrences. The proof of this is precisely their old performances, which are wonderful (mainly the not very flashy ones like KCON in chicago). *It is worth remembering that the special covers that NMIXX, LE SSERAFIM, IVE and NEW JEANS did, NMIXX was the only group that actually sang live, so, even having this personal problem, they at least make a point of sing live.*

[@flaggov6949]

I don't follow Nmixx, but you make a fair point.

[@melatirahmiaziza7869]

Yes. I disagree with its percentage. Some is not lipsync, but they sing it in a lesser volume.

[@stellakatula1439]

Once again another fandom bringing Lesserafim’s name in something that has nothing to do with them just so they can make a point as if you couldn’t do that without me them on top of that just straight up telling lies. Lesserafim did sing live with a backing track. Next time don’t lie on or mention Lesserafim name

[@eduuuardo18]

@@stellakatula1439 Calm down...The performance I was referring to by Le sserafim was a cover by The Boys that was totally payblack, it didn't even have a backing vocal, just an echo as reinforcement (doubled with a choral not correlated with the main line) all enhanced in post production. And this is so obvious that not even they disguised it - which in my opinion is a positive thing. I didn't just mention Le sserafim, but precisely the top groups of this generation, which, compared to NewJeans and Ive, Le sserafim is vocally the most consistent. But relax, the vocals were never the biggest attraction of the group, they don't need to take full advantage of them to hit because they are not their main income for sales advertising... Unlike a considered portion of smaller groups. I would even understand if there was any Ive fandom complaining about what I said, because it would make sense. If there's one group out of the three that I mentioned that really gets disproportionate hate, it's Ive... So you don't need all that. For the size that Le sserafim is, and for the problems that the group has already gone through, believe me, this is a remarkably comfortable group in proportion to the hate other groups receive.

[@vicentebarrios8444]

yes, i understand and also they need to rest their voices because they always sing live nonstop in their first year for two comebacks and then jinni left , they really need to adjust all of their choreo and songs before their 2nd comeback releases

The praising of Taehyun makes me happy, cause he's trully one of the best vocalists in 4th Gen. (He's not my bias, btw) I wanna say something about ENHYPEN - it's obvious that they sing like half of their lines, cause their choreo is often hard. And we all know Heeseung is the ace of the group and considered as the best/main vocalist. But I want you to pay attention to Jungwon as well - he's really stable and he's the one who usually always sings ALL his parts, because he has good stamina.

Korea must not allow lipsync in music show because there are audiences who make efforts to attend and watch them live.. Especially concerts that paid by fans.

The thing is a lot of them, especially in festivals like this, are actually live in person but for some reason when they stream it or upload the official performance online, they ramp up the prerecorded vocals so we can barely hear them sing. But the audience watching it in person can hear them really singing live.

Another interesting thing is how many artists were invited from different companies. 3 groups each from SM and JYP, and as many as 5 groups from Hybe. Poor YG are not in favor. The rest of the companies were able to break through by one artist. Hardworking Stray Kids not only try to sing live or at least make a special pre-record, but every time they prepare some new song that either was not the title track of the album, or is the title track from their previous albums like Christmas Evel. That is, they have to prepare more for performing with them.
