But it's natural why Sistar19 and (G)I-DLE didn't get the same heat: all the members are adults & have a more mature fanbase. Sistar19 has been around for YEARS and (G)I-DLE's more political music does translate into a more college aged fanbase.

But prior to that, and regarding any numbers, particularly when it comes to ages, that were given in all prior years.... I gotta ask, was the Korean ages system being used? Chances are... Yes. Now, this age issue is NOT new, it never has been as you just said. However, if this is the case, if that's the way in which he those numbers were figured, then this would also mean that it's technically grtting BETTER, not worse. It would mean all those ages given need to be reduced, by at LEAST a year, to be accurate. Moreover, any idols whose birthday is in the last few months of the year, need to be reduced by TWO years. People forget... THIS here is the reason why idols all look like babies, this is why they all look so young for their age. THEY ARE. An idol that debuted a couple years ago at 15.... may very well STILL BE 15. Even right now, without the Korean age system in place, how many of these idols ages are we still incorrectly gagging? Because I am positive that not EVERYONE is managing to CONSISTENTLY do the research into what year every idol was born and ensuring that whenever they give that idols age to someone who isn't a fan or just doesn't know any better, whether or not it is accurate. Not to mention all of the countless articles and abandoned no longer updated Idol profiles that are out there, still baring their "Krorean age" instead of their international ones. I guarantee that no one is out there fixing ANY previous occasions in which their age was reworded via Korean age system. I'm just wondering, how many of these ages do we actually have wrong. I find if weird that this hasn't been thoroughly delt with to the point that whenever the topic gets brought up about these idols ages, that people aren't giving their age followed by something like *accurate* or *verified* or even just their birth year instead of their age, make other people do the math, at least then we would all know that we are getting their age correct. (Assuming they can in fact do math lol)... I'm just saying, if their ages are so important to these people, they owe it to them and the cuase to at least be getting them right. Don't they? Because I think if this was corrected, we really would find that it's actually NOT as bad as it once was when it comes to the average age of debut. And in fact, it's been getting better. Don't get we wrong, I do think we really should be advocating for the acceptance of idols who not only work far into their 30, or longer if they so choose. But also that they are able to debut at those games too. However, I think that we need to first see that it's not as bad as we seem to think it is right now, either. If you reduce the ages of ALL active idols prior to 2022 by 1-2 years (which, again, depends on whether or not they were born more towards the end of the year). Then you may very well find that, on average, the ages of the idols debuting since then are NOT worse, perhaps even BETTER than they were before. Just saying... if the age matters, then at least don't have ass the give a damn. Right? Lol

A reason might be that HYBE simply has bad vocal teachers. I’ve also heard from many other fans that HYBE idols (not all) tend to have worse vocals than SM, JYP, YG, and other companies. If a person clearly wants to improve (and are not struggling from health issues), and they’re not improving, what’s the obstacle besides a lack of a good teacher, laziness, and/or a too packed schedule? And even if they have a packed schedule, if they’re receiving such criticism, then the company should be making room for more teaching to improve the vocals. Considering Sakura could have stayed in Japan to pursue opportunities there after IZ*One disbanded, yet chose to continue in South Korea where many things are more complicated shows that she’s definitely not lazy. Therefore, the main reason is likely HYBE. Edit: Honestly with all the money HYBE has, they should hire ex-SM vocal teachers. I’m sure many HYBE idols who want to improve their vocals would appreciate that.

like seriously how do you do something for 13 years straight and somehow still manage to NOT IMPROVE even a little? at this point i assume she is trying her hardest to NOT improve in her singing, you can't do something for over a decade and not get better at it without intentionally holding yourself back.

So glad to finally find a comment section on this that isn't sugarcoating things. They have all the resources, money, and connections they could ask for, as they're under one of the most popular entertainments of their kpop generation. Sakura has even more connections as well as reasons to *want* to do well as she's been in a couple groups and has had a global following for *yearsss*. There is absolutely no excuse as to why they're fumbling the bag this hard. Let's not forget that Yunjin and Chaewon are known for their good vocals. Not that Chaewon has been doing bad, in my opinion her vocals are baseline / decent during live stages. But I'm more disappointed in Yunjin, as well as her attitude these days. She can sing *opera* ffs, why does it sound like she isn't putting any effort into performing? I feel like she's lost touch or something because she's doing a lot of things nobody would expect of her *(wearing a tied scarf like a durag and doing "hip" poses, drinking starbucks during a boycott while exhibiting performative activism, her vocal performance, etc)*. I'm not upset at her wearing "inappropriate clothing", as it's her body and I'm all for idols actually feeling comfortable in their own skin for once, but these other things... I don't know how to feel.

Pls dont say fans were "complaining" about the sexualisation of Eunchae, its not "complaining" its concern, theyre making a minor wear smaller clothing and have her shake her butt and sway her hips in a seductive manner, its weird and gross

Why is it always girl groups that catch so much hate for having bad vocals when most male idols can’t sing at all. That encore wasn’t even close to worst of what I’ve seen. I actually think by kpop standards it was ok

@Ezel5248 The problem with this is that she, and HYBE to a lesser extent, has already come out and said that she doesn't actively look at or try to find any criticisms on her as a performer. Yes, she's a solid dancer. Yes, she's very pretty. But those things alone can't and won't make me like them. They have to be a decent singer with good control from the top to the bottom of their range. Even when I was in chorus, I wasn't ever the best naturally, but I still tried my best and I worked hard at it to get better. I'd like to think I learned at least something from that time. Add to that she's got the second-least lines out of the group and it feels like she should not be making those mistakes. It kinda feels like how Itzy Yuna was being criticized because of her not being a "good" singer and then that led to her falling out of confidence. When Garam left I knew there would be a hole they'd need to fill with one of the others and it wouldn't be the same after she left. I hate to say I wasn't wrong. It's not even that Garam is a good singer, it's just that she was very passionate about singing and becoming a better singer. I think Sakura definitely knows the basics of singing at least, but she also has to be able to get someone else who is experienced and who will actually help Sakura get better at singing.

They surely anticipated the critique on Kkura's vocals from the start, but let's not forget her powerhouse status in Korea and Japan. And sure, Euncahe is a minor, but we're talking about a country that only upped its age of consent from 13 to 16, like, five years ago. I think the real challenge is them adjusting to the idea that K-pop is now a global thing, and they gotta rethink their usual way of doing things. What we might consider inappropriate in Western culture may not be perceived the same way in theirs. As a huge fan of the girls, I wouldn't change Kkura. But honestly, if you're not into a group, you can just skip listening to them. In K-pop, it's not just about vocals - if it were, groups like Mamamoo, Fromis 9, Purple Kiss, and Billlie would be way more appreciated. So, there's definitely more to it than just vocals.

Encore stages aren’t a good measure of vocal capability. The combination of excitement & a lack of warm-up means singing is more difficult. We also don’t know what other environmental factors come into play. While Easy isn’t particularly high, it’s right at the bottom end of their singing range, which makes it difficult to sing, for them, especially with little prep. Netizens also vastly underestimate the difficulty of singing. Any & all singing. I totally agree that underage Idols need better protection. Look back at T-ARA, Miss A, & other 2nd Gen girl groups, where their underage members are kept covered up. It doesn’t take away from the MVs or performances at all, & it doesn’t look out of place.

They are off pitch, sounded out of breath while standing. HYBE is weird for giving a minor those revealing outfits and weird dance moves. HYBE can give them everything but a good vocal coach.

It's kinda ironic to to think that from Gfriend a very well vocally trained group from source music had a few scandals and got disbanded w/o any warning , Source music failed. Then there's Le sserafim, Source Music failed again protecting the girls, I just couldn't help but compare and see the commonality because there's a on going cycle that Source Music and Hybe is doing to girl groups,I love all the members but when will the issues and scandals stop and their company actually doing something about it???

It all comes down to 2 things make good songs that people like because is doesn't matter if your vocals are amazing if your singing a boring song its not gonna do well . And 2nd this is the most important one if you dont like them and the way they sing (or dont sing) than move the f*** on lol go support your favorites instead of wasting time on hate posts and comments and use that energy to support who you do like 🤷‍♀️

Hybe’s CEO thinks that the way to be successful is plagarising western artist music. Literally Leserafin started out as a Rosalia copycat, no surprise this group is always plagiarising some other artist and always dealing with cultural appropriation, but Kpop Stan’s are always defending then. Then, NewJeans Plagarising pinkphantheres music. Believe me, it’s no coincidence the minor member is always doing the sexualize movements. People are right, and are ok to question, it is a big deal and people shouldn’t minimize it or quiet them. Lots of pedos in the industry, and it goes darker than you guys think. So, yeah keep questioning them and protecting the minor.

LS songs are often sung in lower register which most members are not fit for. Sakura sounds terrible to be quiet honest and i wish her company would train her as i cannot imagine being in her position. You can tell how terrified she is whenever they are expected to sing live.

Also, the age thing - as long as there is no common approach to this in all pop media, this shit will happen over and over again. You can’t get scandalised selectively. Agencies see that nobody cares when it comes to other industries, they are gonna try this shit anyway. Why not start with scrutinising this practice starting from western industries, which is more influential and powerful, since whatever the trend is in there will spill over to others.

Sometimes.. I wish people could not say negative stuff about idols- Like they signed up their lives just to make us happy - Even though they might need to improve,we could just simple encourage them instead of bringing down they're self esteem.. So yes maybe the encore stage isn't the best But we could encourage them to do BETTER Also the K-pop industry should stop debuting miniors Like they haven't even finished education and you Want to make them have no childhood-

I think most of this is a hybe problem, similar things happening with other hybe groups as well. Just the company not caring about quality and just quantity because they have too much money and too many groups

The main job of an idol is to sing All other things are second Instead of having a dance practice video they should have a vocal practicing video for their each comeback Their vocals just shows that only in the recording booth they have sang their line and never after that An idol should never be that scared to hold a mic and sing

Well, thank you now people can skip le sserafim.

"theyve put out other good live performances' yes.. where every single one has auto tune

I think there are a few important questions to ask. First, how much does LE SSERAFIM get to control what they wear, sing, and dance? If their agency has full control, then maybe, instead of bashing LE SSERAFIM, people should focus on pointing the criticism and feedback to those in power. Some groups have a lot more say while others don't. Second question: 4:04 why was a photo of Straykids used with the "Hybe Labels"? Aren't they with JYPE? That seemed like an odd choice of images. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

This the group that was gonna be performing on Coachela and they can't even sing one song well

Regarding the encore stage, they do need more training of course, there's always room to improvement. However, not all encores were bad. Chaewon did great in most of them despite the song not really being in her vocal range. Kazuha improved so much and did well for the encore stages as well. Yunjin was shaking a little in a few of them but did well regardless because she projects her voice quite well. Can't say a lot about Eunchae, she had very few lines. (She was very out of breath in her smart stages though). Sakura does need to improve a lot more. She's struggling so much and her voice shakes a lot. Not sure what the issue really is, because it's shaky even when she talks and even said it herself. Anyway, the girl needs to step up her game for sure, more than the rest but that doesn't justify why people bullied her like that online. That was really cruel. Criticism is okay but the extent that this reached was really bad.

They are good dancers and that’s about it.

Whyyyy is HYBE so bad with female groups?? It’s like they don’t even try. The company is responsible for making sure their idols are training and up to standard.

These controversies are so ridiculous it just proves to me that what Le Sserafim do is great. People should get over themselves and stop commenting on other people Le Sserafim are giving us the best bangers and choreographies and if because of these haters they will just become another generic group, I will be so disappointed... Haters are gonna hate, it's their problem... I hope they don't change, I hope they don't change choreographies... It's literally just dance moves, people are so f***ing conservative

Singing a song that say you make it look easy while you’re struggling with a basic note as G3 😞😞😞embarrassing to say the least…..and they are to perform at coachella? Wacky! Get them help cuz they shouldn’t go on stage @coachella like this. They will embarrass themselves!

lmao are you 5

The same things are repeated every time. And the truth is - this is the level, there is nothing significant to do, they are not newbies. Kazuha looks in perfect shape and yet is out of breath in the first minute, that's just the way it is. They look good, they are good dancers, fun music, who is looking for a higher level - there are enough bands.

I'm sorry but hating LE SSERAFIM for revealing outfits and inappropriate choreo's while male idols oversexualize female choreo's to make it more mainly is just unfair and disgusting once they are all legal age of 18 I really wanna know if people still hate them for it then it's just a prove female idols are hated for anything they while male idols get away with it

yes! that breaks my heart. hybe needs to do better with all the girls.

I understand if it is criticism, but that is not what's happening. It is a lot of bullying going on. It must be some internal woman hate going on, cause as soon as female idol groups start to gain some popularity people start to hunt them down like crazy. Mostly woman hating on other woman. So tragic.

Who wouldn't criticise them if they sounded bad in singing or maybe our ears are tone deaf?

@@MyC-mw6mg I said criticism is very understandable. But that is not what is happening, most people are bullying the girls

i agree half way. i think half of my problem with this comeback is that eunchae is a minor and hybe has been making the choreo and outfits not very "appropiate" for a minor especially one who's going to be performing on a stage. i'm not a fan of this "showing your underwear" trend, although i think (g)i-dle did change my mind, but on eunchae it wasn't preferable. i do also not like this new comeback because it was very different from their "usual" sound, although easy did grow on me. i just think hybe needs to calm down on the slight sexual moves and outfits at least until eunchae's birthday on november 10th.

Within seconds of listening to Smart, I thought of Come Down.

Unfortunately, LE SSERAFIM will only be remembered for the past successes, FEARLESS and ANTIFRAGILE were their best highlights. A five-member group looks awkward to me in my opinion, their music has only gotten worse and their dress code is very questionable. No hate. Just facts

where is this energy for the boy groups though? they get away with this shit all the time.

Even tho I am not le sserafims fan I don't under why people don't want to acknowdlege their other encores. I was curious so I checked their last encore stage and they did a very good job. Same level of singing encore as other 383637 idols that have to sing live.

I never understood the hate lol. Don’t like something don’t listen simple as that. If you like songs but not live so don’t go to concert simple.

At this point people are finding reasons to hate on this group if the girls allow it then don’t speak on it y’all are so icky I can’t

I’m sorry but if you’re a singer who SELLS albums and cds… you’re supposed to know how to hold a tune. if not then you’re just a dancer or pretty face. that’s it

wake up. If people KEPT finding reasons to "hate" (I quote that bcs tbh some are just plain criticism but fans like u are too soft to even recognize one as such) then there SHOULD be some PROBLEMS with the group itself. And be honest with yourself, the problem is so dang obvious. Their VOCALS, an essential to being an idol. Don't come and argue that idol isn't only about singing. Bcs idols should AT LEAST have above average singing skills. Some even comment that they sound like they with their friends on KTV, and that is right.

@@dwayzy524 there’s way more popular idols who sound just the same but don’t get criticized for it just because of their visual. They keep on attacking these girls for no damn reason trying to analyze everything so that they could comment their “icks” please grow up and realize that all idols don’t sound like the top a1 singer.

This people are a bunch of snowflakes.

the fact that they mocked a whole religion in their '' easy '' comeback... lol i can't

Nah.. people are missing the big picture. Idols are more of a package deal. Looks, singing,dancing. Some aspects are sacrificed for others to have an overall package. People who want pure singing ability should just fangirl over the opera, but nobody is slamming opera singers for not being able to dance.. 🤷‍♂️ fans should be happy they don’t have a bunch of “famous” people like we do who have zero talent streaming themselves and making millions.

as you said idols are a package: vocals, dance and visuals. the problem is THEY SELL MUSICAL ALBUMS, meaning we have ears and the fact that they cannot hold one note without going off key is not doing the bare minimum. should they get hate? absolutely no. should they get better so they get less criticism since coachella is approaching? yep. imagine a pianist not being able to play the piano, as a musician. what’s the point then?

Hybe's logic- we need pretty idols who are great in dance and have a decent stage presence. And vocals who cares when we have autotune. Like i realized the importance hybe gave for vocals after watching ru next.

I hope the under perform from now on to to piss off all these idiots crying about it.

Netizens are worried about cultural appropriation of the black community?!?! The entirety of kpop itself stole from the black community, it wasn't like it was before when it started but it still fucking bad till this day. So they need to stfu thinking they know what's being cultural appropriating or not.

Okay, when watching the first encore from easy i really had lost my hope, but in the newer ones their vocals ACTUALLY sounds better, and was really surprised with kazuhas vocals. maybe the fearnots made them more confident or they want to prove them wrong? but whatever it is, their going forward in vocal skills

it's intriguing to me about how in the west, people wouldn't bat an eye over a sexy dance move done by a young professional dancer because it's just a dance and people appreciate the choreography, but in kpop, "sexy" moves are an absolute no no and netizens view it as something sexual. i agree with protecting young people, but it makes u think how much people's dirty minds, hidden behind a "we should protect minors" facade, play a part in the whole thing.

nah i think once a groups gets popular everyone is looking for things to hate on. and tho most of these issues are actual they don't only concern LSF. ( imo they did well in the other encores so i don't think they diserve the backlash, the song "smart" is afrobeat so it's normal that it sounds like other songs of the genre and the outfits well .. i don't thinks the girls have a say but they look uncomfortable ( they look pretty confident actually) and thats is want matter .. again just my opinion
