Netizens discuss about Sakura's confessions about people doubting her singing skills.

On September 18, a popular post about Sakura appeared on TheQoo's community board. It was titled, "LE SSERAFIM SAKURA: MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME THIS. I CAN'T SING THAT ".

In the post, netizens talked about a video clip from an interview where Sakura talked about how she handles negative comments.

In the video, Sakura is trying to stop her tears by saying, "People tell me a lot that I really can't sing. When I saw that, I felt a lot of pain. After that happened, it was hard to get into the recording studio. I wish I hadn't been given so many parts and lines in the song since then ".

She continued by saying, "I wanted to do well, but I was worried that those things would be said to me again. I also want to work hard because I don't want to run away anymore ".

Some netizens responded to this post by saying that Sakura's singing has improved a lot since she joined LE SSERAFIM, while others had different thoughts.

Most of the time, netizens criticized people who posted mean comments that were too extreme.

Check out the comments translated directly below:

She kept saying that she was going to get better at both singing and dancing, so I don't know why people were so annoyed and left bad comments.

Why would you go to the post of someone you don't like just to curse at them? Spend that time instead reading posts from people you like.

Sakura went back to Korea and made her second debut with LE SSERAFIM. Her singing and dancing had gotten better, and she did well. While Sakura was getting things done, did those who didn't like her get anything done at all?

Her singing and dancing do get better, and it's clear that she's trying. I hope she quit hurting herself.

Her dancing and singing both got a lot better, of course.

I wonder if she wants to try to become an actress…

It's hard to admit when you're not good at something. She really has a great mind for business.

If I were her, I probably would have said I wasn't good enough and given up. But it's amazing how she didn't give up after getting hurt and kept trying.

To be an idol, you have to do more than just sing, so different people may have different standards.

People can say what they don't like about something, but they don't have to be mean about it.

Why do people have to say bad things as a simple passerby?

What are your thoughts on the post about Sakura?

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
