K-netizens Question LE SSERAFIM’s Popularity in Japan?

A discussion titled “But why isn’t LE SSERAFIM performing at Tokyo Dome?” was recently posted on the Korean forum Pann Nate, garnering more than 118,000 views and nearly 200 comments.

The author of this topic raised doubts about LE SSERAFIM’s true popularity in Japan, questioning why the group has not yet performed at Tokyo Dome, despite being acclaimed as well-known in the country. This is in contrast to other groups like aespa and NewJeans who have already held events at the venue.

Some netizens have responded to this question by questioning LE SSERAFIM’s popularity in Japan. Nevertheless, there are also many who defend the girl group, arguing that the criticisms are baseless and merely attempts to attack them without reason.

The following are remarks from internet users:

The group has 2 Japanese members, one of whom already popular beforehand, so of course they are popular in Japan. Tokyo Dome is likely just a matter of timing
NewJeans, LE SSERAFIM, and aespa are all popular in Japan, I don’t see the need to question their popularity just become of Tokyo Dome
Don’t venues like Tokyo Dome require booking in advance? Maybe it’s just a matter of timing
No matter how much I think about it, it is weird. If LE SSERAFIM is truly that popularity, their greedy agency would attempt Tokyo Dome as soon as possible
Hmm, maybe LE SSERAFIM is more popular with the Japanese public and has a smaller fandom? BoA was popular in Japan but never entered Tokyo Dome too because she was more popular with the public
