They had no in-ears…
Aespa delivered one of the most highly anticipated performances of the night during the second day of the 2024 The Fact Music Awards. Along with winning several major awards, their encore performance has taken the internet by storm.
The SM Entertainment girl group had a stellar night, taking home three well-deserved awards. They received the “Artist of the Year” Bonsang alongside fellow girl groups NewJeans and ITZY.
Aespa also won the “Listener’s Choice” award, fueled by the immense success of their hit tracks “Supernova” and “Armageddon.”
The night was capped off by the group making history as the first girl group to win the “Grand Prize” (Daesang) at The Fact Music Awards.
During the event, aespa treated fans to live performances of three songs: “Supernova,” “Set the Tone,” and “Armageddon.” All three performances drew considerable attention, with fans both at the venue and online praising their talent. The fan chants during their set were especially energetic.
However, it was their encore performance after winning the Grand Prize that truly went viral. Aespa performed “Supernova” without a backing track and seemingly without in-ear monitors, showcasing their impressive live vocal s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s despite the less-than-ideal conditions.
A post about the encore performance quickly gained traction on theqoo, amassing over 18,000 views within an hour. The quartet’s ability to handle such a challenging performance left a lasting impression on fans.
