Hi. I know some of you may have seen my uploads and thought “oh let me come on here and see what all the hate was about with le sserafim” and then want to continue that in the comment section of my video…yeah that’s not gonna happen here.

This is not Twitter or TikTok. We will not be tearing down any of these idols. I’ve seen enough of it already this year. I want to protect my space as much as possible. So make sure you read your comment before you post it.

Also I can see if you’ve taken my reaction to other social media platforms to further spread that negativity and I will block you from the Patreon if that’s the case. Please leave me out of it. I will not participate in that behavior. Thank you.

Just skip the video if you didn’t like it. It’s that’s simple.

I get what you mean, when I got Into kpop, people who hate on it, got on my nerves (cause they just talk bullcrap) and as a nct/stray kids fan, there was no day where I didn’t see anything negativ about the members and their music.(mostly people trashing the music) and at some point (I’m a stan sice 2 years) I just don’t care anymore tbh. This people are just hateful idiots

aespa was up to no1 of world trends when they performed because they sing so well that make you thinking they were lip synching. You think there was only CD played then please go to watch MR removed or fancam you’ll hear clearly and find that they literally sang like CD.

I'm sorry, but bringing Up Blackpink, CL and Aespa IS absolute nonsense. Blackpink 2019 was truly amazing on the Sahara, legendary even, but Last year at the Main Stage??? The backtrack was SO loud that they even stopped singing whole portions to just do choreo... The Performance went Well because they had vocal Help! Aespa was literally lip synching the whole time. They just inserted a CD of their songs, No Band, No live music, and Just moved their lips and danced... OF COURSE they'd Sound Like their studio Versions 😂 CL and 2NE1 did sing live, but they had also loud backtracks and mics with auto tune! Not that they couldn't sing live If they wanted to, I'm sure they can, BUT... They didn't at Coachella. They played safe! 🤣 The fact Kpop Fans can't even Tell the difference and think it's raw live vocals, Just truly amazes me and Shows their absolute ignorance about what live vocals ACTUALLY sound Like. 🙄

Real as hell, I started off as a bg stan so I was shocked to see how heavy ggs get dragged for literally anything by other gg stans. It's crazy that there's such a big difference between it honestly. Although any group gets hella hate if they do something big internationally at most points it just seems more weird than anything else.

Meeploo

blackpink and aespa also received criticism from kpop fans and the gp when they performed. groups will always get unnecessary hate bc people can’t function without negativity. blackpink’s vocals were dragged A LOT and aespa were being called boring for having no stage presence. now ppl are using those stages to drag lss when really yall will never be happy with what ggs do. if it wasn’t their vocals it would be their dancing or stage presence or rapping…. kpop fans will always find a way to be unhappy

Kmedia is ripping them off so bad I really hope Hybe is not letting the girls see the news. And I really agree on what you are saying. I love Sakura so much, she has not had the same training as most of korean trainees and I think she works hard to get better but some people just hate her 😭.

Violet Joo

I think we can all agree that it wasn’t a perfect performance. I don’t see anyone claiming it was. But There were things they did well on stage and no one is talking about it lol There’s always room for growth I agree but from what I’ve seen most people are not willing to give them that. It’s weird. I just don’t want that behavior here. Like constructive criticism is welcomed of course but let’s be real nobody is giving that at all lol they’re just jumping on the hate train and all I was saying is that’s not gonna happen here with my page.

Caitlin Benson

Them getting so much hate is out of control. I saw the performance and it may not be the best however if they aren't allow to perform then how the hell will they grow and get better. I think this is a new experience for them and this will help them. I remember in the TXT docu when they performed at lollapalooza Soobin said he thought his performance was so bad. But then again he performed next year and they killed it. I think most groups need this kind of appearances to make them grow even more and I am sure they will work even harder to have a better performance next time. For me it was not bad.

Violet Joo

Maybe they're doing well in the eyes of their fans. But several groups had already been to Coachella before them like 2ne1, blackpink, aespa. At that time they were all recognized as singing very well. Not sounded like lsf at all :( I'm not the hate I was just expecting too much from LE SSERAFIM.

Diana

Thank you for saying this!! People hated on them so fast when it was unnecessary. They’re dancing non stop and tbh singing while doing anything is a hard task, it’s hard to even get to a point where you’re stable. I’ve tried several times and I can say it’s extremely difficult. So to be upset that they don’t sound stable is absurd. All these people who get upset most likely can’t sing themselves and don’t know what exactly classifies as singing. And yes, constantly singing for long periods of time can hurt your voice. From what I saw they got like no breaks, so imagine singing 5+ songs in a row with no water or some kind of tea. That’ll mess up your voice badly. So yeah they were unstable that’s how it’s supposed to be. What’s making me more upset is the fact that sakura is getting bashed so much. I personally don’t even think she sounds bad. She gets so much hate because she doesn’t sound how people want her to. The hate is just annoying honestly. I need it to stop.

Jinjin

essentially she talked about how everyone has different standards for performing and that’s okay, but that they focused on having fun rather than being perfect. she’s proud of the members for their performance and proud of herself and appreciates the support they’ve received. she basically said she knows hate exists and she’s seen it but she wants to focus on the positives. best part imo was when she said “no matter what others say, i believe in what i have felt, which is why i am able to be where i am right now. i will not betray myself and i will keep on believing in myself from now on too”. quote is the eng translation someone posted

surem

i also dont understand the hate, i think they did a good job (of course the vocals and stability could be even better) but they are dancing and sing 100% live, i think it makes sense, that its not gonna be perfect. thats why im not on tiktok/x i dont wanna see the toxic stuff. its already enough on insta and youtube. (i at least saw 4 videos about how bad the performance was, and im just like?? why so hateful?) its not even critism, just hate. but you know how toxic kpop fans can be. really negativ (alone some channels on youtube are just made for hate) and as a stray kids/ nct stan its crazy how much hate i see about them and their music. with people calling it trash and more, like if you dont like the group/ songs why hate on them? its nobodys fault that you have no taste. insult the members looks (i think i have heart people call every idol in the industrie ugly and talenless at some point, which is crazy with how pretty and talented they all are), personalitys, their sucess, songs, talent and just in a really agressiv mean way. they just want to hate, (4 gen/ 4 gen idols hate is also annyoing, calling it boring/not that talented idols ect. the best idols groups are 4 gen, they are funny and talented, the songs aren’t boring or bad, they are great, and Imo even better then 1-3 gen songs,people hating is boring) i will never understand it. there just as annyoing who people who hate on kpop. for dumb/ racist reasons, just to hate. they often just insult music, call everything the same (which is both wrong, amazing music, different sounds) they dont know anything and just want to hate. and they are mostly racist/homophob. like if you dont like it, dont listen to it, but how often i see hate about kpop, or groups. is crazy, like get a life. but sadly thats the messed up society we live in. hateful, dumb people everywhere. i know its a long comment, but i will never understand it, its annyoing

stephanie44

what did she say?

stephanie44

To perform 11 songs back to back with 1 water break, they did well. I wish people adopt the "if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all". At the end of the day I doubt majority of us could do what the girls did.

Jenny Lee

Man how have people still not realized that you're one of the only creators that'll STAND ON BUSINESS!?🤣

ethan

People are too used to groups having a loud backtrack when singing live, lsf is realistically how most groups would sound when singing live with a barely audible backing track through an entire set

Meeploo

THANK YOU the switch up on le sserafim is insane and seeing all the hate everywhere is just exhausting

marleyy

This is an observation. Male idols (ATEEZ---who were exceptional btw) can hide being in poor voice or in poor conditions much easier than female idols can. (Also, I'm not saying ATEEZ was in poor voice here, just noting the differences). Male idols can rely on hype growling, screaming, vocal fry etc when they can't sing as well due to weather conditions or health. If they're not going to reach a note or a run, SCREAM MAKE SOME NOISE, and the crowd will go wild. With good reason. It's hype and powerful. However, it is dry in the desert, and it was windy and that messes with in ears and mics. And we forget that humans are HUMAN and imperfect and that is part of the experience. Personally I thought Le Sserafim did amazing especially considering the conditions and I love the girls so much. I love their style, I love their bravery, I love their dynamic. I am really looking forward to next week as well and hope they come out with a take that attitude; but I'm just here to support the amazing artists <3 Also, if this comment causes stress or makes anyone uncomfortable---please remove it or ask me to. I have no problem and won't be offended. This is your channel, and I respect you and all that you do.

Faery

their performance was so good i’ll never understand the hate but sakura made a good post about it on weverse and i think you’d relate to what she said in some ways as a creator with an audience 🩷🩷

amelia

thank you for making this post <3

After seeing the "kpop news" sites go on and on about these girls, yeah, I had a feeling this (people trash-talking the group) would happen. I'm glad you're calling it out, Caitlin.

Alexandria T

This post is SOO REFRESHING OMG thank you 😪 ppl do to much and then hate and when people correct them they be in denial

Nia Patton

thank you thank you THANK YOU!!

Evelyn Burks

The worst thing about the situation is that there are people who, when they want to give constructive criticism, pass everything constructive on the floor and throw hateful comments. We know that the presentation was not 100% perfect but the girls do not deserve all that when, like others, they have worked hard to get where they are and that really bothers.

Rock on! Preach sister!

As a new kpop fan, seeing a group I've come to enjoy so much get bashed well beyond what anyone should is so disheartening and makes it hard for me to want to stay in the space. However, your desire to create a clean safe place for fans is so inspiring and one of the main reasons I'm still here. I actually found kpop through your gods reaction and am incredibly grateful for that. Sorry for the long note and thank you for all you do for your community!

Patreon is our safe place. These newer people better stop bringing drama here. That’s a no go.

Daniel Goland

Thank u for that!! i'm not a fan of them but i see their stuff sometimes and for me it's annoying to see hating everywhere they did their best and that's enough! I hope they are proud of their selves🥺 it's sad I don't get the hate. I really love your reactions and you never disappointed me! Im not a native speaker so sorry if there's mistakes<3

YESSS 🙏🏻 say it queen !! Literally you and your patreon (also ytb) is giving me such a safe space and people really want to ruin it 😭

Lily Bujnak

Thank you so much for saying this! I really don't condone the behaviour and hate that they received for the performance. If your not a fan of them you can simply not watch the video. I appreciate you Caitlin
