However, on the social network Twitter, many people passed on the moment when it was said that the two girl groups IVE and NewJeans received a “black sea” from the audience when receiving the award.

The moment is raising suspicions that NewJeans…
… and IVE received black signs from the audience at MMA 2023
“Black Sea” can be said to be an obsession with not only idols but also the Kpop fan community. These moments once created a wave of outrage when an overly excited audience was negative towards the artist. After the above image was spread, many comments also criticized fans of boy bands attending MMA 2023 for their “uncultural” actions with IVE – NewJeans.
However, many people have pointed out that not only IVE and NewJeans but also a number of other music groups are facing similar situations. The reason given is that when the artists went on stage to receive their awards, the audience below turned off their lightsticks to wait for their idols to appear on stage.
The evidence is that in another angle of the fancam recording of NewJeans member Hanni, many of the music groups’ lightsticks were still turned on to support the group. Or in IVE’s performance, there was still a lot of light from the lightstick below the audience. Therefore, the appearance of a “black sea” with the purpose of protesting IVE – NewJeans is completely untrue.
