Rookie IVE show significant improvement in live singing skills, but Wonyoung needs to improve even more
In the recent comeback with Love Dive, rookie IVE was praised for making remarkable progress when singing live, no longer deliberately avoiding high notes.
Singing live is an indispensable skill of K-pop idols. Because of that, no matter how famous an idol is, they will still be nitpicked by fans. Recently, the 4th generation groups have emerged with many outstanding names. In which, the female rookie star of Starship Entertainment is getting the top attention.
Recently, IVE made a successful comeback with the song Love Dive. This is the group’s first comeback since their debut but the rookie group from Starship Entertainment quickly achieved many outstanding successes.
On the music show The Show of SBS MTV recently, IVE excellently won the weekly trophy. In particular, the group’s encore stage received much attention.
Most of the group’s members have made significant progress in live performances. Member Rei, who caused controversy when dodging high notes, has also improved, keeping their breath stable. As for Wonyoung, she disappointed people when she was uncontrollable with her voice, making it hard to hear. It can be said that at this encore stage, Wonyoung is the one who needs to improve more.
Earlier in January 2022, IVE was fiercely criticized for deliberately avoiding singing live. In particular, every time the debut song “ELEVEN” wins on weekly music shows, Starship Entertainment’s rookie group often gets emotional or calls out their fandom name “DIVE” to skip the high notes. Especially member Rei, this has caused her to be mocked for a long time with the nickname “Miss DIVE”.
Despite many controversies, “Love Dive” is still doing well on Korean digital music charts. IVE’s new song even blocked “Still Life” (BIGBANG)’s Perfect All-kill as it ranked first on Bugs.
At the moment, IVE is the name that is receiving the most attention among the 4th generation idols. The members are also trying to improve themselves day by day to deserve fans’ love.
