LE SSERAFIM‘s Sakura is captivating fans not just with her singing and dancing, but also with her hidden talent: crocheting! The idol has taken her love for the craft to the next level, creating intricate pieces that have not only turned heads but also sparked a trend among her fellow K-Pop stars.
Sakura’s Self-Made Stage Outfit Sparks a Buzz
It all began with a unique stage outfit. During a performance on Music Bank, Sakura sported a top she had crocheted herself, featuring the word “EASY” in a stylish font. This eye-catching piece quickly gained attention, with fans marveling at her creativity and craftsmanship.
LE SSERAFIM’s Group Appearance Fuels Speculation
Later appearances on M COUNTDOWN added fuel to the fire. The entire group, including Sakura, wore beautifully crocheted tops and matching skirts. Initially, fans speculated that Sakura had single-handedly crafted all the pieces. However, it was later clarified that while she did create some, others were the work of a skilled team.

From Hobby to Hot Trend: K-Pop Idols Join the Craze
Despite this clarification, Sakura’s talent hasn’t gone unnoticed. Her impressive crocheting skills have caught the attention of other K-Pop idols, including TWICE’s Jihyo and LE SSERAFIM’s Kim Chaewon, who have reportedly placed orders for her hand-knitted creations. This follows the adorable hats she previously made for TWICE members Mina, Sana, and Momo.
Fans Anticipate the Next Trendsetter
With the trend gaining momentum, fans are eagerly waiting to see who might be the next K-Pop idol to join the bandwagon and place an order from Sakura’s “knitting factory,” as she playfully calls it. This unique talent is not only gaining recognition within her own group but also making waves across the broader K-Pop community.
Beyond the Knitting Needles: LE SSERAFIM’s Successful Comeback
While her crocheting skills are stealing the spotlight, it’s important to remember that this is just one facet of LE SSERAFIM’s success. The group recently released their highly anticipated third mini-album, “EASY,” featuring a diverse range of music, from the intense energy of “EASY” and “Good Bones” to the smoother melodies of “Swan Song” and “Smart.”
Their comeback wasn’t limited to the album release. LE SSERAFIM treated fans to a live countdown on YouTube, a special showcase, and appearances on various popular variety shows and YouTube channels.
LE SSERAFIM is proving to be a force to be reckoned with, not only captivating audiences with their music and performances but also inspiring creativity and fostering a sense of community within the K-Pop world.
