Zico recently dropped his latest single “SPOT!”, featuring a collaboration with Jennie from BLACKPINK. To promote the song, the male rapper has been sharing different “dance challenge”videos on TikTok, including some with fellow HYBE artists ILLIT and LE SSERAFIM.
Despite the enjoyable nature of Zico’s videos with ILLIT and LE SSERAFIM, they have been inundated with negative comments directed towards the two girl groups. It is likely that these hateful remarks stem from the ongoing HYBE-ADOR controversy.

At the same time, in regards to the video featuring LE SSERAFIM, several individuals referred to the girl group as “Starbucks” and “backtrack queens” , alluding to the controversy surrounding LE SSERAFIM’s promotion of Starbucks and the backlash they received for their subpar live performances.
Additionally, it was noted that these hateful comments are also present on other social media platforms such as Instagram, causing worry among fans.
Furthermore, some individuals attribute responsibility to Min Hee-jin, as her comments regarding ILLIT and LE SSERAFIM resulted in the two groups receiving backlash, even though they did not have any authority in making executive decisions.
