Le Sserafim Sakura shed tears when asked to sing.
On the 29th, Le Sserafim's documentary 'Make it Look Easy' was released in 5 parts on HYBE's official YouTube channel. The documentary covers Le Sserafim's life in the past year and half from stage practice at the end of 2022, to the preparation period for their 3rd mini album 'EASY' that was released in 2024. It fully shows Le Sserafim's will to overcome the limits of their skills with passion.
In particular, Sakura admits her lack of skills but consoled herself with tears saying, "I hope you can think it was a good decision to choose this path."
Heo Yoo-jin confesses, "No matter what, I want to do well and achieve it. I have too much greed and that's the problem." Kazuha also states, "I feel a responsibility to do well. I want to do well but also think, is this it?" Sakura states, "I want to do really well. Rather than being told that I've improved, I want to hear that I'm doing well. It's not about looking good but working hard."
- [+640, -19] Their attitude is all wrong. Even ordinary people get cursed at if they can't do their jobs. If a singer you're getting cursed for not singing well, it's only right for them to improve. But have they shown any improvement since Coachella?! They still can't do it! They just cry vaguely expressing their emotions so the public can't feel sorry for them. The reality is even more bleak for the rest of us!
- [+587, -14] Idols are basically chaebols in the making.. She can't do it but is in a documentary crying saying she has a hard time practicing asking everyone to understand ㅋㅋ.. The reality is if I wanted to be a Hangul teacher but can't speak Hangul I won't be able to get the job in the first place!
- [+446, -22] Honestly, I knew Sakura, Kazuha, and Ginchae couldn't sing and I had zero expectations about Sakura's character so it wasn't shocking. But Kim Chaewon being the real kkaem who ruined their songs and broke the rules, that I didn't know.
- [+388, -15] I really hate seeing her face. We're all having a hard time, barely holding on and living as it is. Crying and b*tching like this cosplaying as a victim shows this is not your calling... this is why we shouldn't worry about celebrities.
- [+320, -17] Their agency is seriously their anti...
- [+131, -0] She can barely sing as it is but is still earning hundreds of millionsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ.. but she's blowing off some steam fighting the public.
- [+109, -1] I was honestly speechless seeing Sakura break into tears after singing one verse. Any normal agency would've edited that out but Source included it basically saying.. "stop cussing at Sakura!" They kept that clip because they're not an easy company either. A singer crying saying it's hard after singing one verse.. not even an entire songㅋㅋㅋ.. your path isn't being a singer.. just quit.
- [+80, -1] This is Sakura's 14th year as an idol since debut. If she still can't do it then kick her out!!
- [+75, -0] Even part-timers making minimum wage get cursed if they can't do their jobs. What the heck?! What's funny is she expects everyone to be like 'yes, yes'
- [+64, -3] If they had left out Sakura, Le Sserafim would get 3/4 less hate. Her skills are worse than average and her mindset is seriously sh**. She would cry so loudly at the producer's words so you can't even say anything to herㅋㅋㅋ
- [+52, -6] It's only right that Sakura is shipped back to Japan.. she seemed to do well there..
- [+32, -0] It's good to work hard but if the result is Coachella then.. you shouldn't be a singer!
