A recent viral post on the famous Southern Korea Online Forum has launched a reflector on Newjeans (Njz) and their musical skills, pushing a wave of criticism and triggering a renewed control over what is truly behind the group’s increase.
Entitled “But isn’t Newjeans’ ability not to be of a high level?”The post has accumulated over 63,000 views and 601 votes, quickly becoming a trendy topic. The writer compared Newjeans’ live performance skills unfavorably to that of Blackpink, which implies that the success of the group is more aesthetic than artistic.
The original poster said:
“It is difficult for them to make something overwhelming such as the live performances of Blackpink. The atmosphere of the members really seems that they are just fighting to improve their skills with a strong and competitive advantage. Would you say that the success of the Newjeans is mainly due to the production behind them? Even if it seems that they make a lot of dancing to dance a lot, the problem is that the neojeans are singles.
It is like a restaurant where cooking skills are not first -rate. Even if the food has a flavor a little out, they decorated their place well and looks fantastic on Instagram, with a nice plating. “
The post activated a lively debate in the comments section, with many Netizen by agreeing on the fact that while Newjeans boasts a visually captivating image, their vocal and performance capabilities could still be in progress. Others defended the group, praising their new concept and the unique charm.
CNG comments:
- “Newjeans has talent? This is the first I heard about it. Basically they are the pioneers of the synchronization of the lips. Remember that when they went to the news show of Kim Hyun-Jung to sing a Christmas song? They sang so bad that they made fun of and ended up eliminating the blades.
- They know it alone, that’s why I’m angry for Min Hee-Jin at the start.
- They are basically the cheap “instant noodles” of the world of idols, only riding a clamor of marketing with low quality content.
- Even their huge fans do not say they sing well ã…‹ã…‹ probably they feel guilty, so they continue to insist on their “vocal tone is unique” as a way to face mentally.
- From the beginning, their image did not really concern being skilled artists, it is more about having the atmosphere as a teenage girl and being seen as cute. I’m not sure of their voice, but their choreography are fine.
In the meantime, on the morning of March 7, the central district court of Soul held the first hearing relating to the validity of the exclusive contract between the group of Newjeans girls and their management company, Ador.
Adr’s representatives claimed that Newjeans’ success was not due exclusively to individual talents, but it also had to be a lot of the complete Hybe support system and the influence of BTS. Hybe has invested a total of 21 billion wins, including 10 billion wins specifically for promotional activities. Ador stressed that the “BTS Little Sister” strategy, which appeared Newjeans next to BTS before their debut, was a key factor to help the group standing out.
