Who Made LE SSERAFIM Cry? Bang Si-hyuk “Don’t Worry About the Public’s Opinion”

On July 29th, the five-part documentary series featuring LE SSERAFIM was released on the YouTube channel “HYBE Labels.”

In the documentary, Hong Eunchae was questioned about her personal identity, and in response, she stated, “I’m not entirely sure.”

She admitted, “Currently, I have a significantly larger fan base and I can sense that I am being shown more affection than in the past. As a result, I am becoming more open about my emotions and embracing them.”

Hong Eunchae admitted, “Although I am aware of certain images and behaviors that the public favors, I unconsciously conform to those expectations and constantly compare myself to them. I find myself constantly measuring up to these standards and paying close attention to them.”

In addition, she shared her worries, stating, “While I appreciate the current attention, I am unsure of how I will feel when LE SSERAFIM becomes more well-known. With increased recognition, there will likely be more pressure and negative reactions alongside the attention.”

While working on a song, Huh Yunjin couldn’t hold back her tears. She confided in producer-HYBE chairman Bang Si-hyuk, saying, “I constantly worry about how others perceive us.”

When Bang Si-hyuk inquired, “Other individuals? Who?”Huh Yunjin replied, “The general public and other individuals in this field.”

During a discussion with the production team, Huh Yunjin expressed, “I am struggling to find the words to articulate this, but I sense an invisible boundary. It seems there are certain criteria we must adhere to in order to gain acceptance. However, I am determined to push against these limitations while being a part of LE SSERAFIM. I must consider how and where to start.”

Additionally, she confided in Bang Si-hyuk, stating, “In the debut teaser, I expressed my desire to transform the idol industry and make a difference… However, many have questioned me, asking ‘What changes have you made?’ and ‘How can you bring about change on your own?’ At first, I didn’t take these comments seriously, but as time goes by, I feel a greater sense of responsibility for my words. I constantly wonder if I am doing enough and if there is more I can do.”

Bang Si-hyuk instructed, “If you’re currently considering that, I urge you to simply begin writing without concerning yourself with the opinions of the company or the public.”

In response to the question, “When do you feel most like yourself?”Huh Yunjin expressed her passion by stating, “I feel most like myself when I am composing songs and writing lyrics. If I am able to create music that shares the stories I want to tell and has a positive impact on the listeners, and if my message can contribute to making the world a better place, that would be a great success for me.”

Sakura was moved to tears as she shared her emotions, saying, “I wanted to give my best performance. I was afraid of disappointing my fans and losing their support. During the comeback show, we were able to watch it with our fans at the movie theater. As I observed their reactions, I realized that I didn’t do as well as I had hoped during practice and felt disappointed in myself. It motivated me to work even harder. I also felt upset and apologetic while watching the show. But above all, I felt sorry. It was difficult to put on a happy face for the fans, even though I wanted to cry.”

During a singing practice, Sakura also experienced a breakdown. She expressed, “I’m terrified of singing in front of others, but I really want to enjoy it. I’m just so fearful of performing.”

She continued, “I am uncertain as to why I decided to become an idol. Instead of questioning the reason behind my choice, I worry that my fans may be disappointed if I express any doubts. I am not saying that becoming an idol was a mistake, but I often question if it is truly the best career path for me. Whenever I make mistakes or reach my limits, I cannot help but think, ‘Perhaps I did not have to become an idol. There are others who are more talented and deserving of this position.’”

After much contemplation, Sakura came to the realization, “Just like everyone else, my ultimate aim is to find joy in each passing day. Initially, when I first started my career, I believed that determination and diligence would be sufficient. However, as my schedule became increasingly hectic, I began to question whether I have strayed from my initial goal. I am uncertain if the happiness I imagined is indeed genuine happiness.”

Kim Chaewon expressed her curiosity, pondering, “I often wonder about the lives of people my age and how they experience it. When I see them having a great time, I can’t help but think, ‘I want to enjoy my youth in that way too.’ It’s something that has always crossed my mind. However, if we think about it, they are probably also curious about our own lives. I’m sure there are people who look at us and wonder, ‘What is it like to live as they do?’ It made me realize that we are all similar in that sense. We each have our own challenges and struggles.”

“She explained, “Even when I am feeling unwell, I must still maintain a professional appearance in front of the camera. This is the nature of my job. However, during those moments, I realize that it is not an easy task. Although I may want to complain and express how difficult it is, I would feel weak if I did so. I have often questioned my motivation for working so hard – whether it is for money, love, or personal ambition. Ultimately, I believe it is because I have a clear vision of the person I want to become, which drives my ambition. Additionally, I have a strong desire to be loved and will continue to strive for that.”

Despite her best efforts, Kim Chaewon couldn’t help but break down in tears as she expressed her struggle with finding happiness without solely focusing on big goals. She admitted that there were moments when she felt exhausted and even wanted to give up, but there were also enjoyable moments. Although she constantly reminded herself not to feel drained, there were times when it was difficult to shake off the tiredness and it became a burden. As she looked towards preparing for their next album, she couldn’t help but wonder if she could overcome these challenges and achieve the same success as their previous one.

After calmly discussing my worries in the interview, I hope to one day look back and simply smile. I hope to be able to laugh off those worries and think to myself, “Those were the moments that inspired my music.”I want to be able to cherish those times and feel at ease about them.
