There are a lot of idols in kpop who are considered to be good performers....
Whose performances I do not like.
Among these are Hwasa, Ateez's San and Taeyong.
Why don't I like them? They are strong performers afterall....
and that is what bothers me. They perform... strong.
They have strong expressions and movements, but they lack that softness.
They have strong facial expressions.... but they don't balance those out with softer ones every now and again.
There needs to be contrast to the aggressiveness, EVEN in an aggressive song!
Not all expressions need to be big, subtlety is also needed.
Their performances also tend to lack a certain.... sense of naturality in them. They put on this mask of expressions and performance, which almost totally hides the idols, the person behind it. The expressions look rehersed and forced to me and not natural.
So overall.... I don't mean to say I dislike those idols. Taeyong is my baby and I adore Hwasa, BUT.... I don't find them to be as good performers as most ppl do.
