Yeah I certainly don't think the article should be taken down or anything. I do think the article was really lacking for a journalistic article though. Yes, he is ignorant of kpop and not trying to hide it, and certainly allowed to state his opinions. But if he is ignorant of the subject matter, I question the purpose and rationality behind making a judgemental review about the matter.
It would've been fine if he wrote it as a report, and mentioned what he liked or didn't like and maybe mentioned some curiosities he found. What we got was a review without any insightful analysis, with a really passive-aggressive tone throughout. Especially the line "Yes, ladies, the building is literally shaking with shrieks. You’re fine."

And maybe this is just the standard with journalist reviews, but at no point does he state it's his opinion. He doesn't state them as if it's from his point of view either, or even criticizing the performance. Notice that in his language he always criticizes the girls and not the performance. For example instead of pointing out what he didn't like about the dancing, he'll say they are not natural dancers or having any exceeding talent. Every statement is very matter of fact, stated as if it was true. Overall, I didn't find many positives in the article and I'm not fond of people who make quick judgements.

Well i did find it alright article bit insightful even with some commentary, but actually I didn't think of the criticism towards artists instead of performance and I actually agree with that- since it was the tour he was giving criticism towards instead of artist as whole it would make sense to aim it more towards performances. And it would feel less insulting for fans as well.

I disagree and I am not even a Once. Momo, Mina and Sana are all main dancers material. Tzuyu, Jihyo and Nayeon who improved so much could all be lead dancer. Jeongyeon is fine. Chaeyoung and Dahyun are the weakest dancers but they can keep up with the rest of the group. Chaeyoung in particular.

Anyone can follow a choreography heck even me lol and I am a horrible dancer I am talking about actually dancing skills wise like how smooth and sharp you are it's like comparing Taemin with T.o.p it's even unfair for Momo when she is way better than the rest but I understand since twice was mainly picked by their personality/star power/visual than actual talent.

For sure they were picked for that in the first place but I think that you are undestimated Mina and Sana. They don’t have much content about their dancing.
