1. [+1,805, -60] All lip sync show con ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ now that's a jab

2. [+928, -65] It's a free for all..

3. [+75, -19] Wanna One lip synced too

4. [+59, -11] What was the point in judging their singing skills on the show if they're going to end up lip syncing anyway? They're great and all but a singer should be singing into a mic.

5. [+58, -11] ㅋㅋㅋ All lip sync ㅋㅋㅋ the journalist is sending them home ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+47, -47] Twice has been lip syncing since they debuted in 2015 and are a representative Korean girl group. They're still lip syncing four years into their career. Why are you idiots demanding live singing from a barely debuted girl group? ㅋ

7. [+43, -18] Hopeless

8. [+38, -15] All lip sync ㅋㅋ I knew it. Anyone who's heard them sing on the show will know why they had to lip sync ㅎ

9. [+31, -5] Not only did they lip sync but even a few of the members still can't sing so their songs are... difficult to listen to...

10. [+29, -10] They're just "dancers", not "singers" ㅋㅋㅋ

11. [+28, -7] All lip sync ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ is this 1996? ㅋㅋㅋ I remember all the first generation idols got a ton of hate for lip syncing all the time that music shows had to indicate in the corner of their stage that they were lip syncing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ which fueled singers to improve and stop.. but now we're 20 years back into the past ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

12. [+21, -4] Ah.. even lip synced a ballad...

13. [+19, -7] IZ*ONE is a dance team, not a singing group!!

14. [+18, -6] Their lip syncing was so obvious too. Hitomi didn't even bother opening her lips.
