WEi’s Junseo faces heavy backlash for vocals on “Boys II Planet”
WEi‘s Junseo is under fire for his performance on “Boys II Planet.” He performed ENHYPEN’s “Sweet Venom,” but his vocals drew massive criticism online.
The audition clips posted on social media went viral, sparking heated reactions from fans and netizens alike. Many questioned why Junseo chose such a difficult song. Others slammed his vocal skills, especially since he’s been active in the industry for five years.
Fans weren’t holding back:
“노래 존나 못하네” (IOI fan)
“He seriously can’t sing.”
“it wasn’t as good as I expected it to be I’m sorry ” (@starrylixsky)
“왜 이 노래로 했니….ㅜㅜㅜ” (Why did he choose this song… )
“노래뭐야 오빠연습좀해” (What even is this singing? Oppa, please practice…)
“Like, why the hell would you choose ‘Sweet Venom’ for an audition? That song’s range is insane…”
Other fans expressed disappointment considering Junseo is already a debuted idol:
“Huh? Was he always this bad at singing? But damn, his shoulders got way broader. Did he skip vocal practice and just hit the gym?”
“well i expect more bcs he’s already an idol but still i will just vote for him”
“WHYS EVERYONE SO EASILY IMPRESSED HELLO”
The backlash intensified as many pointed out the “low standards” surrounding praise for his performance.
Junseo is one of the familiar faces taking part in this season’s survival show, which features 41 idols and former contestants. This isn’t the first time a debuted idol on “Boys II Planet” faced harsh criticism.
