TWICE's live performance of "Alcohol-Free" is being flooded with comments from netizens.

On June 15, TWICE appeared on the YouTube channel 'Genius' and performed their new song live. On this day, the girls sang without any choreography as they just sat in chairs or stood still on stage.

In the video, TWICE members showed stable singing skills. After the performance, a video with the MR removed was uploaded and drawing attention to the girl group once again.

In just a day, the video with the MR removed received over 500,000 views with over 2,000 comments. Netizens praised TWICE's singing skills, which seemed to have improved vastly, and many were impressed with their stable live performance. This is because TWICE had been embroiled in a controversy over the members' live singing skills in the past.


Netizens commented, "They received a lot of criticisms but they improved so much," "They really worked hard even though people slandered them," "I'm so proud of them," "I think they sang the parts that fit them well," "They sound exactly like the CD audio," "Wow, this is impressive!" "I think they put a lot of efforts" and "I can see they tried really hard because of the criticisms they received."

There's actually been a discussion about this on the forums, by people who're more in touch with audio and audio recordings.

Conclusion was that this wasn't really live, but multiple takes that were edited, which makes it not live but cleaned up audio by definition. Some proof of it was that there were parts where lip synchronisation didn't match the audio.



Aside from that, I'm completely dumbfounded that MR Removed is still being used as proof of anything, after all the shit it got in all the past years and after the many times it was proven how unusable it was as actual evidence of lives due to multiple reasons.

Yet suddenly netizens have forgotten all that, and still going to claim that MR Removed is evidence of live voices? Are they really that forgetful and dense, or just selective in their dissing of MR Removed?


Heck, even ifans should know better.

I hate MR removed videos.

They are made by cutting down the melody line and also the middle notes.

Everybody has middle notes in their voices.

They sound like they are robots.
