Recently, Urban Zakapa's Jo Hyun Ah faced criticism following her live performance on 'Music Bank.'
Jo Hyun Ah performed her latest track, "Give You," which sparked negative feedback in online communities and the YouTube comment section.
Many of the online users took to these platforms to express their disappointment, pointing out that her live vocals lacked the usual polished skill and her performances lacked professionalism.
These netizens pointed out that Jo Hyun Ah's pitch was unstable and she frequently moved her microphone away from her mouth, making it difficult to hear her voice in certain parts. Additionally, many criticized her dance skills, describing them as awkward and unpracticed.
Korean netizens commented:
"Wasn't she supposed to be a good singer? Her pitch is all over the place."
"Looked like an amateur."
"Why does she seem so amateurish...?"
"Someone should tell her...."
"She kind of gives off the vibe of a duck that's good at singing... The pitch is off, but she's doing her best with a live performance... That unique bouncy dance... Along with the flashy outfit... Who took away my beloved Hyun Ah's sensibility?"
"It seems like she didn't properly rehearse the stage movements. When she was singing with the male dancer, she brought the microphone towards him instead of her mouth, so her voice didn't come through. Her pitch was unstable, and she kept making mistakes, looking flustered. It made me wonder if she is really a singer. She should practice enough before performing live."
"Is she the Urban Zakapa's Jo Hyun Ah?... If this is the song she wants to really sing then... I'll support her... but I wish she would return back to Urban Zakapa's Jo Hyun Ah..."
Other netizens commented:
"I'm just flustered about everything."
"Her pitch is off..."
"She's so awkward in everything so I don't know if she's good. Why does she look like she's so stiff."
"Her outfit is bad, her skill is not on par... everything is off."
"Her hair makeup and everything is so awkward."
"I really love Urban Zakapa's Jo Hyun Ah... Why does this performance seem so amateurish."
"What is this..."
"I think the song is bad too."
"I thought she was a good singer."
"I think she is a good singer but this song is not for her."
