Referring to the most controversial rookie group this year, the name LE SSERAFIM – the newly-debuted girl group under HYBE will definitely be mentioned first. Not only because of the controversy related to member Kim Garam, but the company’s way of promoting this girl group also caused them to receive mixed opinions many times.
Recently, the group’s outfit issue also sparked controversy on social media because the company let the members, especially Sakura, wear sensitive see-through clothes. Specifically, the girls released the behind the scene of the ‘FEARLESS’ jacket shooting on May 4. In particular, outfits for the girls’ mermaid concept were considered offensive and inappropriate.
The one who caught the most attention was Sakura. This female idol inherently possesses a sweet visual and a perfect figure, but her revealing skirt and crop top accidentally make her image become less elegant in the eyes of netizens. On the other hand, this inappropriate outfit might cause her to be harassed or criticized by netizens.
