Some of the comments agreed with OP and shared that HYBE was setting the group up with the live performance.
why would their company set up an event like this knowing damn well most of their music relies heavily on autotune omg😭 at least give them some backtrack or smth https://t.co/nMkzjJZXgd

Oh girl they need heavy backtrack asf. Don’t let them acapella again. It’s hard for any group to do that with choreo esp with their shout style. They a HYBE group like why would they ever think— https://t.co/ViYEXxAHLj

Yet, many fans hit back at the negativity, explaining that CORTIS were extremely stable considering it was all live without any backing track and they were still performing with energy. Others added that it sounded just like the album version, and that fans were just sending a hate train towards the members, something that has been evident since they debuted.
Just proved that their live vocals are more stable than your mental health https://t.co/sDQdpelS6n
