Cha Seungwon: “If you lack ability, you need passion. If you don’t have passion, you should be humble. If you can’t be humble, you should be perceptive.”
This is the problem. Some antis may stir up controversy, but we are talking about attitudes here. A mistake once or twice is understandable, but several members of Le Sserafim repeatedly make mistakes or show negative attitudes. If you do not praise this group, Fearnot fans will accuse you of criticizing them and will react aggressively. This is why this group is losing favor with the public.
When the public praises groups like NMIXX and BaeMon for their live performances, Fearnot fans demand praise for their idols even for minimal singing. Sure, Le Sserafim sings, but as singers go, it’s not impressive, it’s just noise. Yet fans insist on praise. Is catching a basketball and bouncing it enough to be considered a good player? What matters is scoring points. Should a chef be praised just for holding a knife? Food has to be good to deserve praise. This isn’t unfounded criticism, but public opinion.
The public doesn’t follow or care about Le Sserafim as much as Fearnot fans think. People aren’t that into it. Yet, fans act like the whole world is against Le Sserafim. It seems like they lack a sense of reality. Famous singers and actors always face negative comments. It’s not ideal, but it’s reality. Haters are common. Despite being with HYBE and having a lot of fans, Le Sserafim fans still complain loudly.
Also, if the music is good, people will stream it even if they don’t like the singer. However, the last title track is not impressive. Also, using augmented reality with loud electronic sounds while claiming it’s live only adds to the backlash. Comments like “This song is just ‘ddanddarara'” are labeled as unreasonable anti-bashing and remarks like “This song is not as good as the previous one” are met with criticism from fans. Some suggest that since the group has had trouble singing live, they should have chosen an easier song, but fans argue that the song was composed a long time ago.
When a song is composed is not crucial. Songs can be changed even before they are released. HYBE is a big company; they definitely have access to good music. Even if a song was composed a long time ago, it should be competitive. There must be a reason for choosing this song as the title track. Fans say that they have done a lot of live singing practice and confidently show maturity, but three out of five members are still lacking.
Fans may argue that this is an unreasonable insult, but it reflects true public opinion. Fans probably won’t listen, though.
Answers:
- [+281, -20] The fandom of this group is really something. Just read the comments below to understand it. Even in a post like this, they bring up Blackpink. Even when they should be silent, they continue to drag other groups, which is why public opinion cannot be influenced…
- [+230, -13] Typical Le Sserafim fans. They shamelessly pull other idols out of their problems. The special feature of these fans is that they mercilessly attack other groups without pretending to criticize their idols. That’s why the public opinion about this group is so negative, but their fans don’t seem to realize it.
- [+219, -14] Members should be open to criticism, but they are treated like princesses by the company. Aside from individual haters, Le Sserafim must accept criticism and make changes. It seems the company sees the current problems as unjustified criticism.
- [+175, -10] This is exactly how Le Sserafim behaves.
- [+135, -9] Tell the truth out loud.
