[knetizen] People talk about ITZY Lia’s dancing skills

[bye-bye]

I’m sharing these gifs of ITZY’s Lia because I don’t know if I’m seeing wrong or if her dance moves are wrong

The fancams for their comeback looked a bit weird and I was wondering if I was the only one seeing wrong

When I watched their fancam, I thought “What is this???” at this part
The other members are moving their shoulders but Lia is just extending her arms

She doesn’t do the arms movements

 

Lia is just turning? The arms should follow the beat and go up-down

This is similar to the second gif but this is the choreography video

And during ICY…

1. [+444, -12] It’s not like OP wrote this post to get her hate. t’s true that her moves are wrong. So should we point out this?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ She’s an idol, her job is to show us her performance. I think she should practice more..

2. [+386, -28] No but in the first gif, it seems she’s not dancing, right?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ In the showcase and dance video, she was shaking her shoulders just fine though. It’s been a while since she debuted so she’s probably able to differentiate when she’s on broadcast and when she’s not. Because it wasn’t a broadcast so she didn’t danceㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ But it really makes me start comparing her to the members around her.

3. [+333, -8] If she was good at singing but not dancing, these kind of posts won’t always keep on appearing. But she’s not good at singing so she should at least be good at dancing.. Lia should practice more.

4. [+188, -7] Chaeryeong dances so hard and even sings well but because of her face, people are hating on her. But because Lia has a pretty face, she always gets compliments.

5. [+150, -1] I think she should exercise before practicing dancing. Because she doesn’t have enough muscle mass or core strength, I can see that her body can’t keep up with the choreography… If she keeps on going like that, it will be so bad for her body ㅠㅠ

seems like she learnt wrong lolin groups there can always be one member that misunderstood the choreo, anyone who stans performance based groups knows this, i think they are making something small big needlessly 

[Forgottenly]

If as they say she was dancing fine before it makes me a bit worried she might have gotten hurt... I hope she's doing okay~

[spopo]

why aren't her members helping her?  If they see her making choreo mistakes they should correct her and help her improve.

[Danee Danee]

Its still good enough tbh. If someone havent pointed it out, I wouldnt notice. Its not as if she missed her moves on purpose or was lazy. 

And seriously not every group can be in sync on Nine muses / Gfriend / ANS / etc lvl. 

[Nero_Kpop]

I'm not even sure what they expect of her, she is in a group where the others members could be main dancers in most other groups, that's why the group keeps getting crazy choreos. And i don't know which stupid fandom started the "she is not main vocal material" but it's real BS...

[Aphrodisiac]

She only trained for like a year(?) while the other members trained longer, so of course she isn’t going to be that well as the others. But she didn’t come to jyp as a dancer but a singer, it’s impressive how she’s been able to keep up with the other members despite being the “weakest dancer”

[mena]

She clearly doing her best in this gif, but she is in a group with four girls who can be main dancer, and the choreo are really hard. I'm worried about her, I'm sure she know that she is the less good at dancing, but they also bash her for her vocal (and I don't understand, she is a good singer). I hope she doesn't lose her self-confidence because of all the comments.

You probably wouldn't, but this has been the talk since their debut, and now that their choreos keeps getting harder/more noticeable move, like arm, shoulder, hips. She keeps making small mistakes, and it's actually more noticeable because she's next to Ryujin, Yeji & Chaeryeong who are dance goddesses. Go watch any of their lives and focuses on Lia and you'll notice it.

In every group you have people who makes mistakes or looks off. Like... Even Soshi in their height had Tiffany who was weaker dancer. Lia obviously joined for a different reason. Her voice is nice tbh and if she wasnt there the group would lose a lot. I just hope the criticism wont reach the point of Yeri, cause the shit she get shouldnt happen again.

Yes, she has been added for her vocals not so much for her dancing.

For example, she has been trending for her cover of Jessie J Price Tag and praised by netizens, to the point it had the most view of the show on Naver, more views than ITZY's own performances.

Who cares she will be the most successful when jyp will push her as an actress.

[Moon Jellyfish]

Let me girl live. 

[Rimana]

Could it be because she lost a lot of weight since debut, or has she alwas been like this

The other members ar also much better which doesn't help her case

She trained for 2 years and i don't think it matter much, she's obvious not a natural dancer and more training won't help her, she need more confidence and like knetz said some core strength. Dancing will never come naturally for her, same as for Tiffany, Jisoo, Yeri etc but she is obvious trying and putting effort which is nice, i don't think is as bad as knetz say it but it is obvious she isn't same level as the others during performance.

What JYP need to do it is give Itzy some songs which suit her, she's main vocal but she never get to show it in Itzy's songs, not even b-sides.

I agree!!! Jyp keeps giving her songs that doesn’t really suit her voice.

What makes you think she can act?

She's not a good dancer, and I don't understand why they put her in such a choreo-intensive group. She sticks out like a sore thumb. Whether she looks bad because she's being compared to the members or some other reason, it still looks bad either way.

[Haze]

Man, I give her props for staying in sync most the time but during the lives she does the bare minimum choreo wise. Which I understand, She doesn’t want to be seen stumbling over the harder parts and the company knows that. So they settle for a lot of posing now with some of her choreo cut out.

i just don’t understand why JYPE can’t let her shine vocally, it’s like they’re sabotaging her. She should at the very least be getting praised for her vocals.

 

 

[CandyCane23049]

Seriously, who has time to look for things like this? I can barely notice anything when they perform all that matters is she gives her all on stage which she does.

This really remind me of how Miss A used to be. Suzy always been compared with Jia, Min and Fei in terms of dancing at their early debut time. But once Suzy get big with actress and variety show, people seems dont care with how she's weak in dancing compared to the other 3.

Itzy got 3 main dancers material (Yeji, Chaeryoung, Ryujin) and Yuna is getting there too since you wont find any problem with her dancing. Yes I agree Lia seems off in dancing compare to other 4 but I can see her improving since Dalla2x. I believe her weight loss also is due to a lot of practice in dancing. She just need 1 song that suits her voice and netizen will stop talking about her.

[KentasGlittery EyeMakeup]

But she did the moves well in the dance practice so why are some people jumping on the 'she can't dance train' immediately instead of like worrying for her health cause she might be injured now and can't do the moves 100% or maybe her clothes are restricting her or she could be exhausted, etc. Knetz always looking for reasons to bring young girls down.
