Among the 4th-generation female idols, Jang Wonyoung from IVE and Sakura from LE SSERAFIM stand out as two of the most well-known names. Despite their popularity, there have been some controversies surrounding their singing talents.
Currently, online users are drawing comparisons between Jang Wonyoung and Sakura’s responses to their respective controversies surrounding their live singing performances.
Despite winning first place in Produce 48 and becoming the center of IZ*ONE, Jang Wonyoung faced criticism from K-pop fans for her lack of live singing skills and reliance on lip-syncing during performances, including ones without choreography, before debuting with IVE.
Despite debuting with IVE, Wonyoung continued to face criticism for lip-syncing, especially after a performance of “Strawberry Moon”with fellow member Leeseo.
Despite this, Wonyoung has consistently demonstrated significant improvements in her singing abilities, evident through her stable live performances with noticeably fewer issues.
Despite being a member of IZ*ONE, Sakura has been actively pursuing her career in Japan for more than 10 years. Despite her extensive experience, she faced criticism for her vocals in LE SSERAFIM’s performance at Coachella, which received harsh feedback from listeners.
Furthermore, during episode 3 of a recently released documentary about LE SSERAFIM, viewers witnessed Sakura shedding tears after making errors while recording. She openly admitted to feeling intimidated by performing in front of large audiences and frequently doubts her career choice as an idol.
Netizens have condemned Sakura’s attitude, stating that instead of crying, she should focus on practicing. Some have even compared her to aespa’s Ningning and Jang Wonyoung.
The origin of K Crush remains unchanged.
