Ok Joo-hyun, a musical actress and former member of the group Fin.K.L., who criticized certain singers dependent on Auto-Tune and post-production corrections, reiterated her stance once again.

On the 6th, Ok shared a performance video of vocal artist Park Hye-sang on her Instagram, stating, "Artists must have worked beyond imagination to deliver deep emotion and beauty during this one-time moment in time. Hye-sang also considers this a lifelong mission and trains and acts accordingly."

She continued, "The beauty that allows artists to showcase their skills, immerse themselves, and enjoy the performance regardless of stage conditions is truly remarkable. We should not hold the fixed notion that such excellence is only expected because the genre is classical music."

She added, "Even in challenging outdoor stadium sound environments, precious moments like Son Seung-yeon's 'golden' live performance, which surpassed perfection without yielding to poor acoustics, must continue to be celebrated and discussed."

Earlier that day, she targeted singers who rely on mechanical sounds. On the fan platform Bubble, she said, "These days, even if someone can't sing at all, they use Auto-Tune so aggressively in post-production that it feels terrible when listening to a real live performance. We need to study and improve through genuine live singing. Using Auto-Tune during recording leads to strange standardization where everything gets labeled as '(Auto)Tuned' despite being broadcast-inappropriate. Honestly, I'm furious. I don't want to share the stage with such professionals."

She further noted, "You might feel this is a very rude remark, but it's true. Seeing so many people nowadays using Auto-Tune for post-production makes me think anyone and everyone has started singing — what a bizarre situation."
