The Survival Show Performance Going Viral… For All Wrong Reasons
When it comes to the most iconic songs in K-Pop, one of the best is “Tell Me” by the Wonder Girls.
Yet, a recent cover of the song on the survival show Universe Ticket is going viral… for all the wrong reasons.
In the recent episode, the contestants all took on more iconic songs in groups. One of the groups was given “Tell Me,” and when the song started, everyone had high hopes for the contestants as they started the iconic song with the choreography.
Along with the contestants looking adorable, the talent seemed present as they started one of the most iconic songs in K-Pop, with the vocalists shining and the group staying together for the choreography.
Yet, while the performance started strong, the clip that has gone viral showcases two of the contestants attempting the fast rap, and they both obviously struggled.
In particular, the judges, including Kim Sejeong, couldn’t hide their laughter while the two members attempted the complicated rap.
When the clips were posted, videos quickly went viral and amassed millions of views amongst different accounts.

netizens couldn’t stop LOL’ing at the performance, whether it was the contestants’ attempts at such an iconic song or the reactions of the judges (particularly Kim Sejeong).
Of course, while Indonesian contestant Vanesya was the focus of criticism, it wouldn’t have been easy for her to do such a quick rap as she isn’t Korean. Yet, it didn’t stop fans from explaining that she needs to be ranked down because of her lack of skills because she is still hugely popular.
While most of the contestants are training, many thought it was unfair to put them on stage with such an iconic yet difficult song.
