A K-Pop Boy Group Sabotaged Their Own Performance

They REALLY didn’t like being told what to do…

Lip-syncing is often used during K-Pop performances. Even during the first generation of K-Pop, lip-syncing was relatively common, leading to a change in how artists perform on music broadcasts when girl group GirlFrND had not been warned they wouldn’t be able to lip-sync.

But one first-generation boy group intentionally sabotaged their own performance, all because they had been told to lip sync.

Shinhwa

Shinhwa has always shown off their incredible vocal skills and continually astounded fans with their captivating performances. So when they were told to lip-sync a performance for their song “Hey Come On,” Shinhwa made it abundantly clear that they were lip-syncing.

Fans loved the chaotic performance as Min Woo performed without a microphone.

And members continually lip-synced to other members’ parts rather than their own, like when Junjin pretended to sing Hyesung‘s part.

Hyesung even performed Min Woo’s solo dance.

Fans loved Shinwha’s hysterically chaotic way of sabotaging their own stage, especially since their strong vocal and performance skills are undeniable.

Shinhwa doesn't always lipsync….but when they do, they lipsync to different parts and purposely make a general mess out of it. XD
