In light of recent news and controversy regarding K-Pop singers performing at Coachella, netizens looked back at singer BIBI‘s experience on stage.

BIBI said in a previous episode of radio star that Coachella is a harsh environment and singing there is extremely difficult (they had a term called Coachella cough due to high wind, dust storms, dirt and 2ndhand smoke) https://t.co/A5vlHyBZLo

I performed ‘The Weekend’ at Coachella 2022 with Yoon Mirae, and it was so difficult. I thought I could sing when I got on stage, but many seniors told me that I had to add a lot of backtrack to my song. I didn’t understand and thought I could do it, but as soon as I got on stage, the L.A. sandstorm attacked my throat as soon as I opened my mouth.

Netizens and fans however, were divided on their thoughts about the most recent K-Pop performance at Coachella.

Some felt that Coachella was known for being a hard stage due to the harsh desert winds.

However, some fans felt that it didn’t make sense as other artists that performed before had no problems with singing.
