• LE SSERAFIM's Sakura Impresses Fans with Professionalism and Experience in Providing Feedback to Fellow Member During Rehearsals

    Even though she moved so quickly, she still caught it…


    Sakura is the oldest member of LE SSERAFIM, and she is also one of the idols with the most experience in the business. She has been doing this job for over 10 years, so she knows how to do it better than most.

    A video of the members of LE SSERAFIM watching their stage rehearsal for their "The Boys" show came back to light recently.

    The group sang the song, which was originally by Girls' Generation, on SBS Gayo Daejun in December 2022. \

    Everyone was paying close attention to the video, but Sakura was the first to notice that Kazuha was looking sideways when the camera moved to her face.

    She had a lot of experience being in front of the camera, so she gave Kazuha firm and careful advice."But Zuha, shouldn't you be looking at the camera? You're being filmed."

    Kazuha thought about what Sakura said right away and practiced moving her head so she could look straight at the camera when it moved to her face.

    In the end, the small change ended up making the performance better.

    At the time this article was written, the video had already been watched more than 4.1 million times on YouTube.

    Even though the original video had a caption saying that Sakura gave Kazuha "sharp" feedback, netizens thought it was very professional and wise.

    People thought it was impressive that Sakura caught such a small mistake and gave her opinion on how to fix it to make the performance better.

    "As expected…this is what 12 years of experience has taught us."


    "This may seem small to some, but it's things like this that make a performance better…
    "


    "I respect Sakura a lot."


    "But you should be thankful for this kind of feedback. Sakura is only giving you advice for your own good. If she hadn't said anything, it wouldn't have changed anything for her. So, we should be grateful that she did."


    "It's great that the members get along well and are close, so that the feedback doesn't hurt anyone's feelings."

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
