Loading

LE SSERAFIM‘s second Coachella performance this year is leaving fans and netizens with mixed emotions.

Coachella Performance Under Scrutiny

LE SSERAFIM’s first weekend at Coachella was met with criticism, with some viewers accusing them of relying heavily on backing tracks and lip-syncing. This sparked a debate about the group’s live singing abilities.

Second Weekend Shows Improvement, But Questions Remain

Determined to silence the doubters, LE SSERAFIM reportedly delivered a more polished performance during their second Coachella appearance. However, some netizens aren’t convinced. They claim the group is still using excessive backing tracks, making it difficult to judge their true vocal skills.

Korean Media Paints a Different Picture

Headlines like “LE SSERAFIM takes revenge at Coachella” and “LE SSERAFIM takes victory over criticism” highlight the positive narrative emerging from Korean media.

Netizens Cry Foul: Media Play or Genuine Improvement?
