I just stumbled upon this and began watching it and was completely underwhelmed by it and then scrolled down to see the comments gushing about how they cried watching the performance because it was that great, how everything was perfect, and that LOONA has proven themselves to be the best of the 4th generation. I'm sorry, but did we watch the same performance?
Here is my thing-I believe that LOONA has a butt load of potential but they haven't peaked and they haven't reached it yet and this performance does nothing but prove that they really aren't there yet...but it's possible for them. The vocals were incredibly soft and a bit hard to hear over the instrumental. The dancing wasn't bad, but I noticed mistakes and slip-ups here and the stage presence wasn't bad but also not fully there either.
They have so much potential but people need to stop kissing their asses and blowing mediocre performances out of the water as something more than they are-I also want to say I'm happy that Gowon and Vivi got more lines here though since BBC refuses to give them some in LOONA's own songs.
They have potential, but are they the best? Not by any means, but will they in the future create a new standard or blow up as they deserve too? Probably.
I'm sorry for this long-winded rant, I was just so flabbergasted by my reaction to the performance versus everyone else. You are free to love and enjoy this performance all you want, especially if you are a diehard orbit-do what you do. Just don't sell this as something it isn't.
