“Empathy does not exist…”
Koreaboo
Former DAY6 member Jaenow known as eaJ, recently caught fans’ attention with a tweet that many believe indirectly addresses the intense wave of criticism that has recently been leveled at THE SERAPHINS. Jae’s message reflects his concern about the lack of empathy in online spaces, and fans have linked this to the recent challenges LE SSERAFIM has faced.
In his tweet, Jae highlighted his shock at seeing people openly mock someone who was visibly emotional. He expressed frustration with how some Internet users fail to realize the potential impact of their words on someone who may already be struggling. “It seems like empathy no longer exists on the Internet,” Jae commented, noting that some people probably don’t fully understand the harm they could cause.
I see people making a fool of someone shedding tears and I’m starting to realize that they themselves don’t understand the depth to which they are traumatizing someone for something they have no understanding/experience of. There’s no way that so many people choose to be malicious in…

For many fans, this tweet seemed to reference a recent incident involving the LE SSERAFIM member Sakurawho was seen in tears during a clip from the group’s documentary. The clip has resurfaced online, sparking debate and criticism that fans say is intense and unwarranted.

The timing of Jae’s tweet added to the speculation, as it aligns closely with HYBE’s leaked internal documents and subsequent debates over LE SSERAFIM. These documents reportedly contain negative comments made by HYBE employees towards various artists, fan wars in office, and discussions about industry dynamics. In this climate, many fans have rallied to support LE SSERAFIM, expressing concern about the strain such online comments could have on members.
Agree. unfortunately some particular fandoms and these kpop bullies think it’s funny https://t.co/TJBS9GS0aW pic.twitter.com/EjV2E2iWFR
