perf-k IZ*ONE performance which generally got mixed to negative reactions

[SLY]

I actually liked their cover of IU's Nagging but looking at the comments, most people aren't that crazed about this cover. Since most of them are in Korean, I'll list down some of the points K-netz are mostly nagging (pun intended) IZ*ONE for: Wonyoung being offbeat, J-line's nasal voice, all members' singing skills sans Chaewon, Yuri, Eunbi, and Yujin, the dance break.

I think something is wrong with Wonyoung's in-ear hence she's offbeat. I haven't heard Wonyoung THAT offbeat before so I guess it's a technical difficulty. J-line's singing specially Nako and Hitomi got shown here more than their actual songs too, and I think they really improved but I do agree that they still sound nasal (because duh, that's how they naturally sound). Lastly I got nothing to say about the dance break except Nako looked like she had fun!

On the other end of the spectrum though, praise for Chaewon is overflowing here. Most comments are about how she carried the performance on her own or just comments praising her talents. Many also included Eunbi and some added Yujin, and Yuri too (not Yena and Chaeyeon since they sounded a tad little bit off here too). I don't think Chaewon carried the performance by herself or anything because it's a collaborative effort between the members still, but I agree that this performance shown how talented she is! Her tone really fits well with an IU song as well.

Thoughts about IZ*ONE's Nagging performance?

It feels like something is off, is it the song choice? Or maybe the instrumental is too loud? 

There were obvious technical issues, we can barely hear some members  And it's weird because they've been in Immortal Songs before, actually one of my fav iz*one performances is Amor Fati from the same show.

"all members' singing skills sans Chaewon, Yuri, Eunbi, and Yujin, the dance break."

lmao that's their vocal line tho, I'm weak- usually Chaeyeon and Yena are also vocal line.

Idk, there were technical issues but it also jus wasn't a great choice of song for them. Still sounds ok to me though, definitely not their best tho!

Hmmmmm, J Line sounded fine, they just cant save this already awful song and thats no one fault.
