Jang Wonyoung criticized for lip syncing while sitting on stage

1. [+2,100] Wow, this is the worst I've ever seen.. aren't they supposed to be singers?
2. [+2,100] This is all pre-recorded so the producers are very generous with their post-editing buffs so why did they choose to lip sync and get all this hate? Bizarre.
3. [+1,500] I miss the old days of when idols tried to win with live skills and less AR
4. [+1,200] Were they scared of the criticisms they'd get from the public so they chose to just sit there and lip sync like goldfish?? It would be less embarrassing if they just chose to sing live with some effort and got hate for that instead
5. [+2,900] If you're going to give them a stage like this, please just give it to an idol who actually works hard instead. There are more than enough idols who would put their lives on the line for an opportunity like this.
6. [+2,300] The entire idea of just sitting there with a hand mic and lip syncing is really just.. ㅋㅋㅋ There are so many groups who can only dream of performing at a year-end event like this, why not give one of them an opportunity instead of this?
7. [+1,500] The fact that she was scrunching her face while pretending to hit a high note ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ that's some good facial acting, you should just go into acting
8. [+1,600] It's not like they're doing any intense dance moves, they're just sitting there and still need to lip sync? I get that life's easy now but this is too easy for how much they're paid
9. [+1,300] It actually pisses me off that they look so proud of themselves after singing like that
10. [+335] They don't even have in-ears on... this truly is the worst

Video: Jang Wonyoung's lip sync controversy, even fans can't shield this

1. [+244] Wait ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ she's calmly sitting down and lip syncing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ that's hilarious ㅋㅋㅋ
2. [+100] Don't the other 4th generation groups like New Jeans, Le Sserafim, and NMIXX have decent live singing skills? Why is it only IVE...
3. [+105] Why are her facial expressions always so greasy looking..
4. [+91] Starship needs to explain what they're doing if they don't want to continue digging themselves into this hole. Or at least show some more support for the other members.
5. [+78] Perhaps she should just stick to being a model or an actor... since no one can come for her beauty, at least
6. [+63] I can't think of anything Jang Wonyoung has put more effort into than losing weight~~~
7. [+60] She's no singer, just a dancer who happens to lip sync
8. [+55] Why would you lip sync this;;
9. [+51] Of all the songs to lip sync, why IU's 'Strawberry Moon'... at the Gayo festival of all places... As if the group isn't already under controversy for their recording studio clips. At this point, I'm wondering if Starship is purposely drumming up controversies for IVE;;
10. [+46] It's one thing to not have any talent but to still not even put any effort into improving yourself while knowing that is worthy of expulsion from the industry
11. [+45] Aigoo, Wonyoung-ah...
12. [+43] Considering that there are singers who are able to sing live with intense dance moves, you should not be in this industry if you're just going to sit there to lip sync
13. [+39] At least Liz is able to sing well... thank goodness...
14. [+25] The fact that a kid like this won daesang with 'Love Dive' totally ruins the prestige of a daesang... Actors win drama daesangs for being good at acting, just like how Yoo Jae Suk wins variety daesangs for performing well on varieties.. why would a kid like this win a singing daesang? A daesang winner who doesn't sing live ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
15. [+18] This is controversial because her job is to sing and dance as an idol and she's basically not doing her job.. if only she sang even one line live...
16. [+15] How did she win daesang when she can't even sing live?
17. [+14] Saying she's busy with her schedules or whatever is just an excuse. There are tons of singers with busy schedules who still put in the effort to sing live.
18. [+10] The fact that her lips don't even line up with the words... did she not even memorize the lyrics? ㅋㅋㅋ This is shocking, what is her job really?
