Taemin’s Coachella Livestream Interrupt: “Mute for 8 Seconds” → “Noise Attack”… Audio Incident Leaves Viewers Unhappy

A sound issue occurred during the online stream of singer Taemin's Coachella performance.

Taemin performed on April 11 (local time) at the Coachella Mojave Stage in Indio, California, USA.

This stage drew major attention as it marked the first time a Korean male solo artist was listed on the official Coachella lineup and presented a solo performance.

In particular, Taemin had been generating anticipation because he was set to unveil not only a medley of hit songs on this stage, but also new songs that had never been revealed in previous performances. Taemin captivated the live audience with overwhelming performance quality and unmatched vocal power befitting his reputation.

However, while the most heated part of the show, the stage for 'IDEA,' was being streamed online, a sound interruption occurred for 8 seconds. Even after the audio reconnected, it was not normal. The noise that continued for about a minute disrupted viewers' immersion.

Fans expressed disappointment, saying, "Why did an audio accident have to happen at the highlight?" but also offered encouragement, saying, "Taemin's stage was perfect," and "The performance was insane."
