According to this netizen, LE SSERAFIM was accused of using Japan’s “Kintsugi”technique in the design of their album cover.
The Japanese practice of “Kintsugi”(golden joinery) involves repairing shattered pottery by using urushi lacquer combined with powdered gold, silver, or platinum to mend the damaged areas. This art form views damage and repairs as integral parts of an object’s story, rather than flaws to be hidden.
The theqoo post discussing this gained a lot of attention, with over 45,000 views as of the afternoon of May 3rd. Here are a few comments from Korean netizens.
– While not necessarily a problem or mistake, it does indicate the extent of HYBE’s involvement in Japan.
– Is this not an overreaction? It is quite common for Japanese media references to be made.
– Why is this a problem at all, honestly?
What is the issue with including interesting and significant components?
“Given all the commotion, it is not surprising that there is a proliferation of cults in this country.”
– You all are finding fault with every minor detail.
“It appears that there is a substantial number of individuals who are eager to criticize this group.”
– Is the use of that technique restricted to Japanese people only?
Having Japanese members, incorporating Japanese sentiments should not be a problem.
