The subject is currently a hot topic, with thousands of netizens chiming in on discussion forums to share their opinion on the performance. A now-viral post compiled clips of the performance, and called it a 'disaster.'
Ending with a clip of the performance suddenly being cut off by a commercial break:
Netizens joined in to voice their opinions on aespa's viral performance, with some criticizing its shortcomings and others defending it.
"They lip-synced, made a series of mistakes, and their dancing was a mess..."
"The video is hilarious ㅋㅋ"
"The performance was just a random, unimportant one, but anti-fans are making a fuss about it for some reason.."
"No, but if you watch the fancam, you can hear their vocals. Is that lip-syncing now too? ㅋㅋ Don't try to criticize them if you don't even know anything"
"I don't know whether to laugh or cry watching this... Please practice..."
"I hope that aespa can admit their shortcomings and work harder to improve from now on. I hope that nothing like this happens again!"
"How can they damage the reputation of K-pop like this?"
"To be honest, it wasn't an amazing performance or anything, it was just average... but I don't see anything worth criticizing about that"
"How dare they go all the way to America just to lip sync? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"
"People are always nitpicking aespa these days..."
"This is the result of spending all their money on viral marketing without actually bothering to develop the group's skills. It's scary.. And it's only going to get worse from here"
"The choreography is like something from an elementary school play... Do they really just have no passion or energy for the stage?"
"It would have definitely been better if they had backup dancers like usual"
"Shouldn't they at least do either live singing or choreography?"
"There are no fancy stage lights... and no editing... K-pop shouldn't be performed on American broadcast stages like that..."
