Article: "Not enough effort" vs "Sound system problem" Hyuna in another lip sync controversy
Source: Sports Seoul via Nate
1. [+312, -17] Hyuna just has the feel of a dancer on stage.. and I'm sorry to say but, I've never once thought of her as a singer.
2. [+276, -22] I seriously hate idols that think they can rap because they suck at singing
3. [+259, -16] She's just a dancer.. everyone's already acknowledged that, haven't they?? Don't come out here now talking as if she's a singer... ㅡㅡ
4. [+62, -3] It's not "Not enough effort" it's "Has no talent"
5. [+52, -7] Just Jang Hyunseung's solo stage
-






Was this even a question?
ReplyDelete4. [+62, -3] It's not "Not enough effort" it's "Has no talent"
ReplyDeleteBURRRRRRRNNNNNNN.
Not sure why they even gave her a mic to begin with.. Give her a backup dancer outfit, take her mic away and no one would notice it's actually her.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHA! I basically commented the same as everyone else saying that it basically seem like Hyunsueng solo stage ..but your comment about taking away the mix & outfit..
Deletereally made LOL... So true!!!!!!
Say hello to the one who is going to break into the States soon. They couldn't have chosen a better star..............
ReplyDeleteI'm confuse...this isn't the first time this happen tho..So where's the "controversy?"
ReplyDeleteThat's why they said Another controversy
DeleteLOL not like she sings to begin with.
ReplyDeletejang hyungseung and backup dancer..
ReplyDeletebefore this she already did the same during volume up comeback stage...
ReplyDeletei think she suit t-ara really well when it comes to lip sync...haha
Hyuna and 75% of the other idols that performed that night so...
ReplyDeleteI love Garie...that's all I gotta say. :D
ReplyDeleteBritney Spears can barely walk straight, much less think straight, and that's on a good day. Christina Aquilera can't even sing the National Anthem without slurring and forgetting words. Rihanna has more scandals on a Monday night than all the Korean idols put together have had, EVER. Nicki Minaj just keeps releasing the same album over and over, hoping no one will notice...
ReplyDeleteTrust me, HyunA will do just fine.
The thing is.. all those stars has something to back them up. Britney & Christina has their past stardom & Christina is a powerful singer (she's not perfect all the time but you can not deny her voice). Rihanna ..well that's her image.. things that are scandalous is not really scandalous when it comes to her. Plus basically all her songs are hits. She's not great at singing but she's a great performer w/swag people can't deny. Nicki Minaj basically has YMCMB behind her to hype her up.
DeleteHyuna.. no past fame to support her endeavors. She can dance kpop-strong but it's not that strong or impressive to grab attention. She can't sing. & her ability to perform & put on a catching stage, is..um.. shaky/inconsistent.
It's true that there ARE stars in America that has no talent but still have an alright career but the ones you mentioned are not good example AT ALL.
My gripe with Hyuna is that she really does have the feel that she isn't trying nearly as hard enough on stage as she should. Sometimes, she looks like she wants to be anywhere but on stage performing and other times, she won't even open her mouth to sing the words. A lot of the times, she won't even attempt to sing, just letting the MR do all the work for her.
ReplyDeleteAside from Hyuna, all the other singers you mentioned can carry a tune. It all goes down to who has the singing ability to heck with all the blunders except if Hyuna will be introduced as a DANCER and not as a SINGER.
ReplyDeleteare you really throwing shade at beyonce
ReplyDeleteOMG, you comment made me LOL. are you like a 14 year old kid? you stupidity runs on a whole nother level. You think Hyuna can keep up to American standards? far you made my day xD
ReplyDeleteShe was lipsyncing, like she made no effort at all. Only thing she has going for her, if that she's a goodslut.
ReplyDeleteI don't think so. Hyuna is not going to do fine. Girl can barely sing. And sorry but Hyuna's kind of "sexy" isn't going to work in the States, her sexy is nothing compared to there. The States preferences are different compared to South Korea's so most if not all of her appeal in Korea is non existent in the States.
ReplyDeleteTrust me, ain't nobody going to listen to Hyuna and take her seriously especially when LIVE PERFORMANCES are a big thing and if Hyuna can't even do one live well...
hahaha...he is my favorite RM member...peaceful gary~
ReplyDeleteMine too!!!!! LOL, I can see his peaceful expression in my head clearly.
ReplyDeleteThere you go. Toldcha to stop mumbling.
ReplyDeleteYep. And I've seen her LIPSYNC though entire performances. There's a vid on YouTube of "Get Me Bodied" where she wanders around on stage while the backup dancers do all the heavy lifting, and the only time she uses her mic is to yell at the audience.
ReplyDeleteShe did sort of look like a back up dancer for him
ReplyDeleteyeah you're butthurt
ReplyDeleteI'm very familiar with America's LOW standards for pop singers, having grown up here, and I can tell you that the current crop sucks. Not that it really matters, because they just fix it all up with computer software and shit.
ReplyDeleteYep and you forgot one thing, the overload of using sex to sell. Smh America.
Delete"Hyuna's kind of "sexy" isn't going to work in the States"
ReplyDeleteIn my younger days, I never could have even *conceived* of the sad roster of lard-assed hoes and crackhead trannies who currently defile American TV, movies and radio. How the hell did we go from Farah Fawcett to Kim Kardashian?
Trust me, these hard-bodied Korean chicks have everything they need as far as looks and talent. The only thing they need to do learn English. HyunA could swallow this country whole if she could rap or sing in English without a goofy accent.
But no one would contest the fact that Beyonce can sing her butt off. Plus, most singers use backtracks and Beyonce isn't an exception to the fact. Hyuna has nowhere near the same credibility that Beyonce has.
ReplyDeleteI think the issue is that the guy sounded a LOT louder than HyunA, probably because he had a real microphone while HyunA had one of those wimpy little headsets. I suspect that HyunA sounds fine in the studio where they can turn up the gain really high. During a live performance, however, they might not be able to amplify HyunA's soft voice without nasty feedback.
ReplyDeleteall I hear is excuses.
DeleteSure a few do. Hyuna isn't one of them. And you mean if she could rap or sing PERIOD. Even S.K is embarrassed about sending her to the States.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you think Hyuna can do it, wow, just wow. And the fact that you're accepting her like this goes to show you don't mind allowing more of these " lard-assed hoes and crackhead trannies" into the States. You my friend, are part of the problem.
wow ur comments crack me up! like for real! ur comparing Hyuna with the likes of Beyonce and Christina who are still considered 2 of the greatest vocalists in the history of music! sure they can have 2 or 3 bad performance, but those are nothing compared to most of their incredible LIVE vocal performances!
ReplyDeletego watch Beyonce's Listen on Oprah or her Dangerously in Love performance at her B-day concert, then come and tell me Hyuna is at her level..
gosh i knew kpop fans can be delusional, but never thought it would be to this pathetic level! im actually laughing at how ridiculous u sounds! lol

The bad thing about it is, you don't see an ounce improvement in her "rapping/singing" and even her dancing skills has become limited. It's more of gyrating, touching and close-up shots. It's not even dancing anymore. But, the thing is there are other idols who also didn't start out as passable singers but more of weak rapper/dancer, but after a few years you can clearly see some improvement in carrying a tune and doing "live" performances, though not consistent. BUt Hyuna is CONSISTENTLY bad and almost always not LIVE and she's to above even mouthing out the lyrics.
ReplyDelete"Beyonce and Christina who are still considered 2 of the greatest vocalists in the history of music"
ReplyDeleteROTFL - Your knowledge of the history of music is seriously lacking. You must have grown up watching American Idol or X-Factor and think that makes you friggin' expert. ::facepalm::
Beyonce and Christina aren't singers, they're brands... brands constructed by a music industry that stopped giving a crap about music when Carole King went out of style.
HyunA may not be a great singer, either, but it doesn't matter... if someone decides to throw enough money at her attempt to cross over to America (Hyundai? Samsung? LG?) ... she could shill just as well as Lady Gaga, no problem.
It doesnt make sense that you insult beyonce and Christina saying they are brands when obliviously hyuna is just that. It's not like she has fans because of her talent but because they think she is sexy and her company uses that to make money.
Delete"Beyonce and Christina aren't singers"????????
DeleteYou're joking, right? Are you hearing impaired? Just by you even stating that, makes all your arguments invalid. Carole King was great in her time but to deny these two singers because its not your taste in music is such BS. Stop trying to be music-snob, get your mouth out your ass, and stop being delusional.
The only thing hyuna is good at is spreading her legs and dropping down. I don't understand why beyonce was even brought up in this article . Talent wise there is a huge disparity that hyuna can't even imagine to close . Idk about Christina and Nicky , but Beyonce is super talented and it's insulting for her to be compared to someone like hyuna.
ReplyDeleteWhat?!!!!!! This is the funniest and delirious thing that I've read lately,c'mon man, she has no talent whatsoever.-
ReplyDeleteThey are brands who can carry a tune though, which is something that matters a lot more than you seem willing to admit.
ReplyDeleteNo. Hyuna won't do just fine. And it really has nothing to do with singing or dancing. The main fact everyone is missing is that in america asians are looked down upon. why do you think wonder girls just flopped, people say they flopped because their style isn't fit for america but thats just a lie, no kpop star will be successful in america until we stop being patriotic retards. Psy only got his success because the video was funny, not because they actually had interest in him.
ReplyDeleteWhy is everyone bashing Hyuna? Oh come on sometimes idols have a reason for lip-syncing, sometimes their voice isn't in good condition and such, do your know why Hyuna lip-synced? No its not because she can't sing, her voice isn't the best, but her voice certainly isn't those who don't deserve a mic. Every idol is stronger in one aspect, Hyuna's is dancing. Why did Hyuna get so famous? Because she has talent, it may not be her voice that is making her stand out but she still has talent. So you guys shouldn't bash her and say she has no talent and all that crap.
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN HYUNA TRIES TO SING/RAP IN ENGLISH OKAY. IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrGQBMkXa30
u a mess
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that in K-pop, they will typically use headsets when they are lipsyncing a stage and use a hand-mic if they're actually singing live. So a lot of idols lipsynced to a previous live recording last night not just Hyuna.
ReplyDelete??? Sistar did just fine With the headset! Same with SHINee
DeleteTalent in what?
ReplyDeleteExcuses, excuses.
ReplyDeleteShinee performed perfectly well with much harder choreography.
I would probably give Hyuna the benefit of the doubt if she didn't lipsynch ALL THE TIME and if, during the few times she DOES bother to sing live, she didn't sound like a dying animal.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6Xzn7NNl_U
Taeyang used to use headsets all the time, and he never lip synched.
ReplyDeleteSame with Rain and Se7en.
Then please do us all a favor and tell us about all the talents that Hyuna DOES have... other than spreading her legs with her mouth hanging open. (And if you dare even try to say that Hyuna is a "good rapper" everyone here is going to laugh at you.)
ReplyDeleteAnd what is her talent?because when I asked her fans all they do is call me jealous ,hater and curse me, but they never actually answer me.-
ReplyDeleteI don't think anyone missed the fact about her being asian. No one wants to bring it up because there will already be so many people bringing it up that we as fans should try to look past it and hope for the best in this area because this is definitely something that needs change.
ReplyDeleteEven though it's painfully true, if we keep looking at it like this, that she is ASIAN and that's why, nothing will change because we too, will be focused on this aspect on the whole situation.
I think whether or not they focus on dancing or not was also a part of it. Because it's easier to focus on your dance moves when you have both hands free.
ReplyDeleteThree words... Lana. Del. Rey.
ReplyDeleteThat chick sounds like a cat that just had one of its paws ripped off, and it hasn't slowed her down one bit. She gave one of the WORST performances on SNL of all time, and after about 2 seconds of fake controversy from internet know-it-alls, she went on to become a bigger star than ever.
I know Beyoncé and Christina have a lot of fans, but the reality is that their stardom is built on their looks, not their voices. Yeah, they can sing better than HyunA (when they're sober), but so what? These are not opera singers we're talking about, not even Broadway musical caliber... just pimped out pop stars.
They used to make black people drink at separate water fountains, but it didn't stop the Supremes from becoming the greatest girl group of the 60's.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason it's so hard to imagine Asian entertainers succeeding in America is because it hasn't happened yet. When it eventually does happen, everyone will smack their heads and say they saw it coming all along :)
Yep and that's because they have talent and can actually hold a tune, Hyuna........can't. The mic was wasted on her.
ReplyDeleteLOL Yeah but pairing T-ara with Hyuna is just insulting. At least T-ara members can hold a tune when it's not live and have some par of talent.
ReplyDeleteShe has talent in spreading her legs really wide.
ReplyDeleteBut I do admit that she does have a cool rapper voice (and I don't mean that annoying as hell pikachu voice) but she sure as hell isn't a good rapper.
bwahahha. the amount of delusion...too funny.
ReplyDeleteOh I completely agree with you. Hyuna will fit right in with the American Music market...........as one of the back up dancers constantly gyrating on the guy.
ReplyDeleteShe's perfect for American Pop-market. Don't worry your pretty little head about Hyuna unnie, she will do great things.
I watched all the performance on KBS and SBS gayo daejun.... I was wondering why hyuna on the stage...she doesn't even bother to open her lips...
ReplyDeleteshe just cant sing live. and she has been lipsyncing for ages.
ReplyDeleteShe should just be a dancer or act. When it comes to singing or rapping she looks lost.
ReplyDeleteNo, if those 2 names come up, the first thing people think about is their voice not their looks. That comes after and is a plus to whoever finds them attractive.
ReplyDeleteHyuna would have to actually open her mouth and pretend in order to be compared to T-ara.
ReplyDeleteFor the people who are like why is everyone hating on HyunA, everyone lip synchs- personally, I'm not upset that she was lipsynching,because like its been pointed out, lots of people do. I don't like that she did it, but I'm not bent out of shape about it. What annoyed the shit out of me was that she didn't even TRY to at least LIPSYNCH! At least be willing to move your lips (not just your hips -.-) and actual do the pretend work; What she did can't really even be considered lip synch.
ReplyDeleteI'm not hating on Hyuna, but her attitude during performances pisses me off. She's always like that. Is she thinking that opening her mouth makes her less sexy? Ridiculous... It was the same during 'Volume Up' promotions, 4Minute members did their best, and Hyuna was just dancing there barely moving her mouth... Her laziness is just hilarious. She could be good, not the best, but good rapper, but she'll never be if she's going to act like that. It's sad.
ReplyDeleteI watched this particular performance and it was obviously that Hyuna was hardly singing whereas Hyunseung, who had a hand mic, sounded exceptionally clear and perfect. Really did feel more like a solo stage with a glorified backing dancer.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that they´re not THAT good but Hyuna is on a whole different level. And you shouldnt think that US labels only take beautiful/sexy people with not much talent many produce their own songs. Hyuna sometimes has good stage presence but she CAN´T sing, her dancing is good but nothing compared to shakira or even Nicole scherzinger. And her rapping? Sound more like talking in a erotic voice to me. Dont misunderstand I actually really like her as a person she´s adorable but talent wise she´s no one worth mentioning.
ReplyDeleteYep, I know. I've just noticed this with other idols who focus more on looks rather than singing.
ReplyDeleteTrue. Super Junior pleasantly surprised me yesterday because they actually sang live for once instead of being lazy and lipsyncing! (Except they didn't really rehearse enough and warm up their throats beforehand because I heard a lot of voice cracking and such.) :/
ReplyDeletelol.....really though i wish she would eat something if she wants to spread her legs like that etc....maybe swing by singing practice after?
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I was going to write, Sometimes she doesn't even look at the camera and all she does lately is those ¨sexy¨ moves...she needs to put more effort. AND she's way too skinny lately!
ReplyDelete[+276, -22] I seriously hate idols that think they can rap because they suck at singing
ReplyDeleteyes, so many idols names come to mind ...
i honestly think she hates being on stage. She always looks dead in the eyes whenever she looks at the camera. And her dances are very lackluster like she is going through the motions.
ReplyDeleteMost people I know think Lana Del Rey is terrible. Critics seem to agree. Yet ... she's still better than HyunA, seriously.
ReplyDeleteI actually like HyunA, but she is what she is, and that's not a talented artist.
I love her voice she can sing very good .
