Recently, fans and K-pop fans, particularly ONCEs, (fandom of TWICE), noticed the cute choreography mistake that Jihyo made during their debut performance for "I Can't Stop Me" in STUDIO CHOOM.

In particular, the fans' and viewers' attention were captured when the video was re-uploaded on YouTube, piquing their curiosity about why the original version was taken down.

Eagle-eyed fans then pointed out that it could be Jihyo's alleged choreography mistake at around 1:33 timestamp of the video, showing how Jihyo seems lost.

Studio Choom took down @JYPETWICE’s “I Can’t Stop Me” performance. They’re probably editing the NG cut where Jihyo seems to be lost. What a Cutie.

Fans think that Jihyo apparently forgot the next choreo, but after peeking at her co-members' dance steps, she finally continued dancing to the right moves.

Fans and netizens think that Jihyo's mistake is normal, and it can really happen even during the final performance. ONCEs even think it's really cute!

However, K-netizens clarified the case on an online Korean community site. They claimed that it wasn't really a choreography mistake, but rather proof of how great a leader TWICE Jihyo is!

In the post uploaded on Pann Nate, the user talked about the controversial part of Jihyo where everybody thought that the female idol got flustered after forgetting her dance moves.

The Korean fan added, "Most people responded that this was a mistake in editing.That's the normal response because you're not taking that kind of content at once."

Though several fans affirmed that they don't mind it as Jihyo did really well throughout the video, there are still anti-fans and haters ridiculing her dancing skills.

The fan also wrote that Jihyo has been receiving negative criticisms since then. Still, malicious articles saying it was the 'greatest mistake of all-time ' made it more serious among Korean netizens.

Fortunately, the behind-the-scenes video of TWICE's STUDIO CHOOM performance was revealed on Nov. 17, and the video showed that Jihyo didn't make a mistake because she forgot the choreography, but as a leader, she paused to check on Sana's little accident! 

the way that we all thought that Jihyo is the one who made a mistake but it's actually Sana such cuties @JYPETWICEpic.twitter.com/2yiOJ2rmnk — PARK JIHYO ️⁹ (@yrkbxxi) November 17, 2020

Sana was next to her, and dancing all her best when the dancer was outbalanced; thus, Sana stopped dancing.

Jihyo checked on Sana and paused, thinking that they needed to retake it, but the cameraman continued taking the video. 

As a result, the video was re-uploaded, editing Jihyo's part, and it focused on Tzuyu instead.

The post gained various comments from fans and Korean netizens, but the majority found the video cute and underserving to receive hate comments.A fan said, "Even if Jihyo was wrong, it was ridiculous to be cursed at. No, it was like ng during pre-recording. Where is the idol/entertainer who will survive? How empty is your head?"

"Stop harassing our pretty Jihyo. Cheer up, Jihyo," another fan added.Even non-fan of TWICE and Jihyo defended the idol and said, "I'm not a fan of Jihyo, and I'm upset that she's always criticized for nothing."

TWICE, a nine-membered group, made their comeback last Oct. 26, introducing their second full album, "Eyes Wide Open" with the title track "I Can't Stop Me."
