• LE SSERAFIM's Kazuha takes heat from netizens for “Suzy-riding” cover of miss A's hit at fan meet

    LE SSERAFIM's Kazuha has been making waves with her cover of miss A's iconic 'Bad Girl Good Girl'.

    The performance took place at LE SSERAFIM's fan meeting, 'FEARNADA 2024 S/S', held on May 11th and 12th at Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Seoul.

    Since her debut, Kazuha has been turning heads with her striking resemblance to miss A's Suzy. Their similar features even landed them second place in Mnet's 'TMI NEWS SHOW' celebrity look-alike ranking.

    Kazuha's resemblance to Suzy has also helped her snag a modeling gig for a beauty brand that Suzy has previously worked with.

    Fans were excited to see Kazuha take on a miss A cover stage at the fan meeting. Despite the pressure, Kazuha wowed fans with a flawless dance performance of 'Bad Girl Good Girl'.

    However, not everyone was thrilled. Some of Suzy's fans expressed their discomfort, saying things like "It's too much to keep comparing her to Suzy", and "Suzy is still active, it's frustrating to constantly hear comparisons". They've even coined the term "Suzy-riding" to express their displeasure.

    In response, some netizens sympathized with Suzy's fans, saying "It's understandable that Suzy's fans are upset", and "It's fine to say they look alike, but it's not right to keep using Suzy's image after debut".

    On the flip side, there are those who are defending Kazuha. They argue that "There's been a lot of talk about their resemblance, but it seems like Kazuha is being criticized for all sorts of things due to recent negative public opinion", and "It's just a stage prepared for fans, I wish they would just appreciate Kazuha's charm instead of comparing her to others".

    Meanwhile, LE SSERAFIM is set to continue their fan meetings in four regions of Japan - Hyogo, Aichi, Kanagawa, and Fukuoka in June.

  • BTS' Jin visits Andong to help wildfire victims, serves meals at Baek Jong Won’s relief center

    BTS member Jin has touched hearts once again with his kind gesture to support those affected by wildfires.

    On April 3, Jin visited Gilan Middle School in Gilan-myeon, Andong, to serve meals to disaster victims and firefighters. His actions brought much-needed comfort to the people in the area.

    Gilan Middle School is where celebrity chef Baek Jong Won, a close friend of Jin, has been running a free meal service through his company, The Born Korea.

    Since March 28, The Born Korea has been providing meals for the wildfire victims, preparing 300 to 700 servings each time to ensure that the affected people and firefighters receive warm food.

    Jin quietly made his way to Andong, a region that suffered extensive damage from the wildfire, to lend a helping hand.

    Big Hit Music, Jin’s agency, shared, “Jin wanted to provide even a small amount of help to those affected by the wildfires, which is why he decided to participate in this volunteer activity.”

    This heartwarming gesture follows BTS's large donations for wildfire recovery efforts. Jungkook donated a whopping 1 billion KRW, while V gave 200 million KRW, and RM, J-Hope, and Suga each contributed 100 million KRW to aid in the recovery.
