Earlier, on October 17th, LE SSERAFIM made a comeback with the second mini album “ANTIFRAGILE”. 

However, right before the comeback, member Hong Eunchae contracted COVID-19 and went into self-quarantine. Later on October 19th, members Kim Chaewon and Heo Yunjin were in a car accident and did not attend the music broadcast schedule.

Then, after the car accident, Yunjin fell ill with COVID-19, causing regret. In addition, due to the mourning period related to the Itaewon disaster, music show schedules were canceled and despite recently making a comeback, LE SSERAFIM only got to appear on music shows for a total of 4 times.

Below are some comments from fans regarding the situation:

  • LE SSERAFIM is really unlucky this time
  • The song is extremely good though
  • Since we don’t get to see many music show stage, i’m waiting for the year-end performances. 
  • I’m really looking forward to the next song
  • The stages are great, but it’s a pity we don’t get to see many of them 

On the other hand, after 6 months of debut, LE SSERAFIM managed to enter the Billboard’s main album chart “Billboard 200”. 

In particular, their 2nd mini album “ANTIFRAGILE” entered the Billboard 200 at No. 14, World Album at No. 1, and Top Album Sales and Top Current Album Sales in 3rd place.
