Never miss insights like this - delivered every morning
On May 10th, at the iHeartRadio 102.7 KIIS FM Wango Tango concert held in Huntington Beach, California, NMIXX delivered a performance that surprised everyone. NMIXX made a daring decision that most K-POP groups might hesitate to attempt, or even approach with caution.
They completely revamped their setlist and performed with a full band! 😮 It wasn't just a change in music; they also re-arranged their existing choreography to match the full live sound. With members Lily, Sullyoon, Kyujin, Bae, Jiwoo, and Haewon filling the stage with live vocals, one can only imagine the immense effort and preparation involved, which is truly remarkable!
'Predictable' K-POP is Not NMIXX's Style!
According to a Forbes article, NMIXX appears to have made a statement against the idea of 'making K-POP according to a set formula.' The article mentioned "declarations and transparency regarding the idea that K-POP should be processed in a set manner." This demonstrates that NMIXX possesses a firm philosophy regarding their musical color and performances. Instead of offering music that might be familiar or considered 'safe' by fans, they show a clear intention to provide a new musical experience through their own original attempts.

While it's natural to worry about public reaction when trying something new, NMIXX seems to be moving forward with conviction in the music and performances they pursue. Their attitude of pioneering their own path, as if to say, 'If they're not interested in our music, why should we try to satisfy everyone?' is impressive. 👍
