For real ! I don't understand how Hybe trained them for 6 months as a group and expected to be confident?

[@belaytriks]

3. The members themselves have been show to have more pride of their skills than what they have show. A little more of humility and doubt about them would made wonders to them.

[@pessoinhacansada6900]

Point 2 and 3 (on the reply) are, in my opinion, why a lot of people hate on their group. I remember some inicial stages of some groups who weren't soo good, but everyone was like "oh, they just debut, they nervous" but with LS the expectations were really high because: 1- two really experienced idols and 2- the super confident concept. I remember when Aespa debut and a lot of people criticized their stage presence (and some stans would say that's their concept, and its on purpose-wtf?) and how they are SO MUCH better today. They made more live performances, showed off their vocals, and got over the nerves they have to perform on the beginning of their journey. For LS is hard to do the same thing because of the image that hybe choose to promote them.

Just wanted to say I agree! I remember doing mildly questionable moves as a teen during dance classes BUT at worst; it was just gonna be at our dance recital. Which would be attended by people our age. Not millions of people on the internet, or the mostly male adult fan bases. I remember wanting to dress “sexy” as a teen but that’s what elders are for! To step in and protect you when you don’t realise you may be putting yourself into jeopardy. I always think of Hyuna, whose entire brand was based off sexiness when she debuted as a 14-15yr old!! Yes she’s now an adult but surely her image was shaped by being sexualised at such a young age.

[@underloveryz2731]

I have done K-pop dance classes ( we have these in my city), there were times we danced to sensual choreographies such as Cake by Kard. However, the huge difference is the audience. While a class is being spectated by parents, friends,... of the class members ; in Hong Eunchae case, she is being watched by millions of people, including grown-people! HYBE is only good at managing BTS, other groups, they just mistreating them or just managing them terribly.

[@mrsnobody2637]

they set the bar too high with their first two albums so now people want them do deliver on the same level

[@georgia4111]

It’s also partly because of how much content K-pop demands. If they released one solid mini album a year it could be more consistently high quality, but with 2-4 comebacks a year it’s just so much harder to ensure consistency (and this isn’t just lesserafim; twice are one of my ult groups but they put out so much stuff! I love it as a fan, but many releases just feel undercooked or like they don’t quite fit the concept or are clearly trend chasing - not specific to any group but I notice JYPE really milks so many comebacks a year, the girls and guys must be so exhausted :(

[@mrhamstah]

it’s all of hybe’s fault. clearly they didn’t give them the proper training they needed for the type of music and performance that they give them. they keep debuting idols with little training experience and throw them to the wolves, which inevitably leads to cases such as lesserafim and illit getting shitted on for being “untalented”. there’s a reason why groups from the early generations didn’t have as many controversies for their singing abilities, because they all trained for 5 years, if not more, and it showed

[@fearnot_jeans]

Like 6 months as a group is nothing. You have groups like Red velvet, Monsta X etc. Who trained as a group for 2 to 3 years to accroding themselves with each members

[@luancosta199]

Tbh all of their groups are like this. BTS also didnt have a lot of training time together as a whole group, Jimin also got only 6 months of training before being in the line up and had to watch the other members' vocal training sessions bc he didnt get any- which unfortunately lead to years of singing with improper technique that caused serious damage, which unfortunately shows :( I would say the only HYBE group thay got actually organized group training was TXT which had yeounjun be a trainee while BTS debuted. Other than that all of their groups didnt get proper training (not counting groups that were BOUGHT by HYBE after debuting). Vocals specially were NEVER important to Hybe but I feel like this is the first time it blew up in their face this badly.

[@cattosakamotto]

Why is it always the company board members getting blamed?? None of these girls show a mental illness not physical illness to make them hinder through seeking a much better trainer than what hybe & somu provided. These girls are no longer 12 yrs old, they're now legal mentally capable enough to know what they're lacking in. How long has it been since they debuted?? Their weak vocals has always been pointed out but y'all love to give them excuses so they got too comfortable with showing the absolute bare minimum & look how they responded to actual valid criticisms, they acted sooo passive aggresive & that's what rubbed the whole situation wrong!! If they managed to accept it after being criticized during fearless era, then this whole vocal foasco about them would come to an end but its kpop. Y'all love to coddle kpop idols & always giving such bs excuses. Its not about the choreo nor the range of the song, its flat out that their vocals are sub par & non existent at best! What more excuses y'all gotta give them? Stop being so delusional & accept that having sub par talents will secure a long standing career.

[@mrhamstah]

@@cattosakamotto Well since they’re fully dependant on the type of trainers that HYBE brings into the company, that has a lot to do with it and since we’re noticing a pattern of their idols lacking in certain areas of skills, clearly the trainers being hired aren’t focusing on training them to be the best versions of themselves. added to the fact that HYBE clearly prioritises the team members visuals fitting with the chosen concept for said group, there’s a lack of care and consideration taken into the type of training they received and they’re expected to know how to execute whatever HYBE execs want them to perform (songs that are out of their vocal range, songs that require more stamina etc.) and they might’ve not been given that type of support in training prior to their groups formation

I always talk about this. If garam was still there then the encore stages and Coachella wouldn’t have been as bad. Because in a group of 6 there’s going to be members with strength and weakness that compliment each other but they clearly lost a vocal member and it shows

[@kleinerfuchsi]

@@NatashaLkim Excatly! Garam was lead vocal together with Chaewon, while Yunjin was main. Kazuha was clearly intended to be the main rapper, which we see in Fearless, while Sakura and Eunchae sub-vocals and visuals. Garam's exit messed it up big time. Now they needed a third vocal ASAP. Their only opptions was Kazuha really, as the other two are worse. They quickly ditched her as a rapper and made her lead vocal from Unforgiven forward (as Antifragile was already pre-recorded prior to Garam leaving). Kazuha got way better than she was, but still, her lines are simply too challenging for her. You could see in Coachella, that she struggled simply due to the fact that she had too many lines, she could barely catch a breath. On the other hand, Eunchae and Sakura both get like 5-10 seconds of lines per song and they strugge even with that. Mind you, I'm a Sakura stan, I love her, but dear God, she has some real problems. I think after Garam, they should've just gotten a new girl, one who can actually sing. But now it's far too late.

[@miilena9209]

Cmiiw, I have only seen one clip of Garam singing live with no backtrack (the one with her singing a line from sour grapes) and while she sounds amazing on the recording, she didn't seem to be a strong live singer either. Hybe/sm just never cared about vocals for this group and didn't think they would get this much criticism imo

Le sserafim’s collab with ado for their Japanese version of “unforgiven” was what made me discover them and become an absolute kpop stan (because before that I would just casually listen to stray kids and xdinaty heroes without even bothering to learn the members’ names), I stan le sserafim to this day and I 100% agree with everything that had been said in this video!! I am a year younger than Eunchae and when “smart” mv came out I got kinda worried about her because if I were in her situation, that choreography would make me really really uncomfortable because of obviously being a minor and I feel like she didn’t have much to say about it (or she didn’t care, dunno, just saying what it was like from my perspective). About the church thing: I am a Christian and while people can feel offended, I personally don’t see any issue since that church is being regularly rented for concerts, shooting movies and etc AND it was a protestant church so there was no tabernacle there. If they would be dancing in front of a tabernacle I would stop for a second and google if this is even allowed since tabernacle is where the Eucharist is stored.

[@Winnangh]

I grew up as Christian, with family history in both Lutheran and Orthodox churches, and what bothered me about this discourse was how people painted Christians to be a monolith. Yes, some Christian denominations and groups might find the MV location offensive, but they can't dictate to other Christians how they should feel about it. The church in question clearly felt fine about it, and I haven't seen any outrage from religious groups in SK itself either. I was kind of reminded of Pussy Riot, a Russian feminist group that was arrested for performing as protest in an Orthodox church, and responses to it. Obviously LS shooting a commercial music video in a church is different, but where is the line?

You wouldn't even be allowed into most European churches dressed like that, they would ask you to cover yourself. The super sexual dancing in a church is also quite questionable. - Location: why was this even shot in a church? Nothing about the lyrics or music suggest anything like that. There have been some really beautiful videos done in a church, so I'm not against it. It's just why the Easy video with that clothes and overtly sexual dance? The video could have been shot in a warehouse, a street or in a park, why did it need to be in a church of all places? - cross with band logo: they took the cross and turned it into a neon sign with the band logo on it, now that is a complete no-go! - Eunchae is wearing devil's horns on her head.

What scares me a lot, that you sometimes don't know that some members of groups are minors if you are not actively looking at their profiles or something. I literally didn't know for a long time, that LS has minors because their styling, make-up and dancing makes them look so much older... (maybe except for their debut but I never really watched their mv's so...) there are groups where you can see that they have some members who are minors (like for ex. Illit's Wonhee because she literally looks like a child), but seeing how old people are got extremely hard... not only in kpop...

Right and BTS were already being dragged to absolute filth since their debut lol if they debuted today it would be absolutely brutal.

Eunchae shouldn't have been in the group, her age and the groups concept is not compatible and just inappropriate.

[@blaqgirlssss]

I’ll keep it real a portion of the lesserafim hate has to do with their fans. Fearnots were and still are constantly fighting with kpop gg fandoms about how talented and better the members are compared to other groups even though that usually is not the case which sets lesserafim up for harassment from fans of other groups who were already mad. For example, Fearnots were talking smack to every fandom who questioned the girls’ skills. They said, “Well at least they are going to coachella, they’ll show you how talented they are there.” When the videos came out of their lacklustre performance stans of the groups who Fearnots previously “attacked” came full force to laugh at lesserafim. Not because they hate the members, but because kpop fans always take out annoyance for the fandom on the idol. I could be biased here cause I’m a tokki (Newjeans fan) but when it comes to minors in kpop and the weird shit their company does, I’m experienced. I was there during the cookie situation and I remember not caring much about it since I was 16 so why would it creep me out. Now as an 18 year old I definitely can not listen to the song anymore. Unfortunately I don’t think I can unstan Newjeans which is where I sympathize with Fearnots. I’ll always call out ADOR if I feel like anything is weird in their content, but I love the actual members and they make good songs, so unstanning is something I just wouldn’t do. But I also understand why people are not comfortable with groups like lesserafim and Newjeans and I do not blame them for it being a turn off completely. Especially if you have other groups you are already more interested in. (Sorry for yapping🫣, love your videos btw)

They really did have a very brutal fall to the bottom, I noticed even when I was a fan, some of the delulu fans will try to manipulate SO HARD 😭 Like what you said about the sexualization of minors, some of the fans will try to convince you that Eunchae doing a dance like Smart isn't incredibly inappropriate for her to be doing 😭 Even I was convinced they were right until I thought about it without the heavy bias. I still listen to their music occasionally but I defiantly do not ult them anymore 😭 I feel bad for them in a way, and I hope they can redeem themselves but idk if they can tbh.

[@luancosta199]

The unfortunate fact is that the succes they got as a group relied almost entirely on their IMAGE, not on the members. If we look at it from afar, ANY idol could be a part of this group and it wouldn't change much, aside from the ex IZONE members' success and maybe the badass western member that is yujin. With this shitshow, they'll have to kinda prove that they deserve their spot as le sserafim, not by having badass concepts, but by showing the MEMBERS' strength. Which they DO have, but it'll take a lot of training for them to fit the fearless, antifragile le sserafim. Also yeah, a lot of the hate they're getting is unfortunately a direct result of fearnots being unhinged lmao

I thought it was funny how HYBE promoted Le sseraifim as this fearless, industry changer group then goes out there way to drop a song like smart. Their debut releases were pretty good but I hope HYBE doesn't become too greedy and start hopping on trends just so the songs can become mainstream.

[@pearlcnrd]

I personally never saw the barcardi move as sexual since it isnt twerking (which i dont think is inherently sexual, however has become sexual, kind of like belly dancing) I would say it is on par with umlando which also isnt sexual, this is my unique experience and view and i think alot of people in my country view it similarly, however i can also see how it can be percieved as a bit sexual. Now the drop it like its hot with the legs open facing the front is 100% sexual, and hybe is definitely catering towards sexual deviants, it could have been changed to the same move but a diagonal facing, arabesque (the back leg straight) and their arms in standard arabesque position, and the leg swings around to the front or bends back into a squatted position and they stand back up normally, which isn't sexual. Sexual deviants will find anything children do sexual, however this was deliberate on hybes side.

[@shoeeeeee8113]

I just wish idols had more control over the ways they are portrayed in general, it’s absolutely disgusting that companies make minors dance in such ways, but I also don’t like how as soon as an idol turns 18 everything is magically fine and who cares. Like, if they WANT to do those things, then yes, they’re legally adults capable of making their own decisions and they should be allowed to do so. But I honestly don’t believe many idols can just voice their opinion like that and change the concept that the company spent money on, so on that note they still are young girls (or boys) who shouldn’t be forced to act in ways they don’t want to (which applies to any age group really). Ofc we don’t know what those idols think and we can’t do much about it I guess :/

[@gahkko]

As a fearnot, I agree so much! I love the girls but hate SouMu. The concept honestly doesn't fit the girls besides possibly Yunjin and Chaewon and MAYBE Kazuha. But for how much they were hyping up Sakura predebut as the face of the group then gave her a concept that she doesn't fit her is so ironic. Not to mention that few of their songs are actually in the girls' vocal ranges. A retro/cute concept like when they performed HOPE would actually be so good, they all suit it I think (but with 1800-Hot-n-Fun I doubt they'll be doing this concept anytime soon).

[@oneusforall057]

I’d argue that Le Sserafim aren’t the most hated idols. They still get a lot of support. Perfect Night, Easy, and Smart did really well on the charts. If we want to talk about hated groups, Itzy can’t put out anything without it being torn to shreds by the public. And they don’t get the same levels of success these days are Le Sserafim do (despite how much people seemingly dislike them). Also, Wonyoung of IVE can’t even breathe without people attacking her. When it comes to Le Sserafim, I see their hate train coming from a few different places. The first is obviously the varying opinions on their concept, as it is derived from Christianity. Many disliked it from the get-go and it only worsened with Unforgiven and Smart. While I personally think that anyways religion that has impact beyond the scope of its followers (which is basically every religion) should rightfully be open to constructive discussion both verbally and in media use, there is a line where you have to remain respectful. That is, unless your message is hating the religion, then I guess respect isn’t something you’re considering. In Le Sserafim’s case, they’re obviously just using Christianity as inspiration for their concept and aren’t trying to make an entire think piece on whether on it. So, they can’t be disrespecting Christians by dancing in a church if they want to continue using Christianity as the core of their concept. The second has to do with their vocals. Yunjin’s classical training is obviously amazing and you can’t ignore how impressive she is within that style. But when it comes to pop vocals, the group is objectively weaker in that regard. I think this is a symptom of a bigger problem. HYBE stans have a big us-vs-them mentality. This derives a lot from how HYBE artists have a bigger international reach than most groups (aside from Blackpink and Stray Kids). Many stans of HYBE groups believe that their faves are bigger than KPop and shouldn’t be discussed within the context of the industry. This makes other stans mad and actively look for reasons to hate these HYBE groups. Since HYBE is weak vocally across the board, Le Sserafim’s vocal shortcomings are low hanging fruit to attack. And granted, this kind of hate is common for all HYBE groups. Not just Le Sserafim. But honestly, I don’t think anything else they find themselves under fire for are unique to just Le Sserafim. Plenty of things they get hated for are also thrown at their peers. Itzy, IVE, Lapillus, NewJeans, Illit, Class:y, etc. have all been criticized for “questionable” (to put it lightly) choreographies given to minors. Tons of remixes? That’s a common practice these days. Heck, that’s ALWAYS been common. But the number being pumped out has increased drastically to keep up with the demand from the streaming era. And no, (G)I-DLE did not say “I want that remix-sy no Sserafim”. The lyrics of “I Want” go, “I want that oui, merci, no, c’est la vie”. Yunjin ordering Starbucks? Idols both male, female, groups, and soloists have been called out for purchasing from companies/vendors that are currently being condemned for potentially funding Jen Aside (I think the accusations against certain companies have been debated, but I’m not 100% sure, so I’m saying potentially in case I’m wrong). Being cringey? Again, Wonyoung couldn’t eat a strawberry in peace without being told she needed to end things. Her, Yuna, and Eunchae are like the 4th gen pick-me squad where they can’t do anything without being dogpiled by the internet. There’s a reason why encores “aren’t fun” anymore. Idols are afraid that saying/doing the wrong thing will bring hate to themselves and their group. So, standing still and not doing much is the only way to avoid that. So yeah, I personally think on the group’s concept and HYBE’s mishandling of Garam’s false accusations are the only thing unique to the group’s hate train. Even their vocal technique being criticized is something seen pretty widely amongst 4th and 5th gen groups (especially from HYBE). Otherwise, they’re still extremely successful (especially since they possess two former Iz*one members) and are still able to compete with their 4th gen peers. Whether or not they’ll survive the Fourth Year Fever is another story. We’ve already seen it claim Itzy. And StayC look like they might be in trouble as well. While most of the backlash the group gets is unjustified (and plenty of it deserves to be targets at their fans, their company, and their team including management, stylists, producers, directors, choreographers, etc.), they still shouldn’t be shielded from criticism. Unfortunately, it’s very rare that you find those voicing actual criticism and not just adding more fuel to the fire since engaging in sensationalism is one of the easiest ways to garner clout. *TLDR: I don’t think Le Sserafim is any more hated than some of their peers, especially Itzy and Wonyoung. Plus, they have the success to outweigh the hate. That doesn’t mean the hate doesn’t exist and I’m not justifying it. I’m just saying that it has yet to impact their actual success, charting, and monetary standings.* Anyways, great vid! I really enjoyed hearing a new voice contribute to this dialogue! ❤️

i'm one year older than eunchae and honestly its so weird to watch her dancing that way on stage if she was in a party with her family and/or friends thats on her but If she's dancing on a stage to thousands of people with a choreo that was created by an adult then its kinda weird (english is not my first language so sorry if its not well written)

While in contrast I started stanning Le Sserafim with Antifragile something about their just clicked with me for some reason. But my enjoyment of their music started dwindling with Unforgiven to the point that the Easy ep is probably my most disappointing comeback this year. I still like the girls and think all the hate they’ve been getting has been taken too far.

So I know that this video is 6 days old, but I just watched it and I just wanted to express on the topic of minors because I myself am a minor. Personally, I love listening to music such as KIOF (just wait), and even learn some of their choreographies. But the only places I perform these choreographies is in my room because I don't feel comfortable. I would feel so bad being forced to do those choreographies on stage where there can potentially be creeps watching me. ( I don't know if you saw that one clip of that one male fan that was trying to take a picture under Mina's skirt even though she just returned from hiatus). Also on the clothes, I wear like shorts, but one time my shorts were too short for me and I didn't realize it, but I walked around the entire school with a hoodie around my back covering myself. I feel sorry for Eunchae and I hope that she heals.

I used to stan lesserafim like hardcore, but over time the company sexualizing Eunchae really turned me off from the group. Then overtime I stopped stanning all groups under the company because they keep doing it to other minors. I still love the members but I feel I can’t support the girls without also indirectly supporting the companies acts. I express my frustrations with the companies along with others but they just don’t seem to care.

Easy -> literally plagiarism accusations with Velous with his song Cliche Smart -> Tyla (specifically water) Swan song -> sza (specifically kill bill) and for We got so much, idk too much about that one but it wasn’t really that memorable anyways.

I honestly wouldn't blame the idols since I don't fully know how hybe works - do they just let idols do what they want, etc.. but yeah.

[@luancosta199]

I feel like their idols are the ones with the most POTENTIAL, which hybe confuses with already refined talent and are like "ok so we'll give u a couple of months to train and you'll be good to go!" Which may work short term but long term turns into... This. As much as I hate SM the reason they're the top 3 of kpop is their immaculate training system. Hybe thinks having a mildly talented, very pretty and charismatic idol is enough to carry a whole group. They were getting arrogant imo. Too focused on the numbers their groups were getting and not the groups themselves.

[@Lina12896]

In my opinion I think LeSserafirm is overhyped. As someone who gew up with 2nd Gen and is manily 3rd Gen stan I also think they lakeing in vocals & live singing while dancing. Also as said the music took a weird turn after Unforgiven. The sound ist just meh...it doesent stand out. But this is not the first group and also not the last group HYBE debuted that is not prober trained. So I dont really want to blame the girls but rather HYBE who did this. Debuting minors always happened and always will happen but its up to the company how they protect them from wrong & sexual exposer. I always think about ASTRO how even adult members got protected in vlogs with Stickes as censor when they were shirtless swimming. Sanha the youngest still was asked to cover his belly when he turned 20. They only allowed to show themselves topless since 2022, outside of officle shootings. Le Sserafiim dont deserve the hate and harsh comments about themselves. But people also need to acknowledg that they are not well trained compared to other 4th Gen groups and if they want to surive they either need to step up and train more or they need to deal with the contiunes critic.

The criticism dancing inside of a church, you don’t have to be religious. Just think of it this way, if they were seen dancing in any other religion’s church i.e. a temple or a mosque, everyone would be LOSING their minds. So it’s not an issue that some/a lot of christians would be offended.
