2nd-Gen Girl Group’s “Completely Raw” Performance Resurfaces Amid Recent Idol Live Vocal Controversies
A second-generation girl group is gaining attention out of the blue.
Netizens recently brought up two performances of TS Entertainment girl group SECRET. Made up of Hyosung, Hana, Sunhwa, and Jieun, they are a four member girl group that was active from 2009 to 2018.
The first video that resurfaced was SECRET’s performance of “Magic” from their “s 2010 album Secret Time.
The second was their song “Love Is Move” from their 2011 album Moving in Secret.
Both are upbeat songs with high energy dances that matched them. Despite the high level of difficulty, the SECRET members were clearly singing live with minimal backtrack.
Netizens were left impressed by their completely raw vocals. They had a common sentiment that the girl group is “really good” at performing, and they also mentioned missing the second generation of K-Pop as the one now is “on a decline.”
- “Even though there are only four members, they handle their parts much better than those who split them up and sing”
- “There performance has no flaws, it’s crazy. Personally, among the second-generation girl groups that aren’t active anymore, they’re the team I most want to see again…”
- “Seriously, they’re so good.”
- “They’re too good.”
- “Seriously, the second generation was the best…they danced fiercely in high heels and sang live like that, it’s amazing. Back then I didn’t feel it as strongly because it seemed natural like that’s how it’s supposed to be, but now, K-Pop is on a decline.”
- “They’re really good.”
- “When you watch videos of them performing live, you realize that there are really a lot of second-generation groups who are full of charisma and perform well. They’re really good.”
The K-Pop world has been filled with debates on the singing abilities of idols as of late. HYBE‘s new group, ILLIT, for instance, was criticized for their off-key singing in music show encore stages.
LE SSERAFIM has also been under fire for their subpar vocal abilities in Coachella, with netizens disliking even more how they lip-synched in the second week.
