IVE started their performance with an outstanding dance solo from members Ahn Yujin and Gaeul. It then transitioned into a group performance of IVE's two high singles, "LOVE DIVE" and "After LIKE."
The performance started without any problems. However, while the group was performing "After LIKE," a staff member was seen rushing on stage and cutting IVE's performance short.

Following the interruption, IVE was seen walking off stage. The light was shut off, and viewers could just barely see the members waving as they left the stage mid-performance. Some speculated that it was not due to an error, as IVE did not appear overly surprised by the interruption. Viewers believe that The Fact Music Awards planned to air a pre-recorded performance for IVE all along.
This sparked debate on why IVE was asked to perform live at the award show if they would not let them complete both songs in the first place.

Other artists' performances were also cut short such as TREASURE. While TREASURE performed, the lights suddenly shut off. They were still dancing when the lights suddenly went dark.
what’s so heartbreaking was the boys not only performed in someone else’s set, they continued to give their all even when the lights went off… ugh
