Pop diva Mariah Carey failed to impress fans in South Korea when she brought her Elusive Chanteuse tour to Seoul earlier this week.
A website, which tracks trending news articles in Korea and translates the readers' comments into English, revealed that some concert goers deemed the show disappointing.
They subsequently left the venue before the concert finished, reported Ace showbiz.
"The absolute worst... I can't believe I actually paid money and left work early to watch such a horrific concert," one commenter wrote.
Another commenter claimed Carey, 44, was lip-syncing during the concert, writing, "I'm a Carey fan who just got back from the concert... I thought she'd at least perform her most famous tracks in Korea like 'Hero' or 'Without You' but she didn't!! And the majority of the concert was spent on dancing and instrumental performances instead of her singing. A lot of lip syncing instead of live as well. Overall, a disappointment."
Carey's Elusive Chanteuse tour was also criticised in Tokyo, Japan last weekend.
