LE SSERAFIM embroiled in rising sun flag controversy

Netizens are furious as HYBE’s girl group LE SSERAFIM has been associated with having subliminal messaging & background images presenting the rising sun flag. As the dust & heat has settled from the Coachella scandal 2 weeks ago, the girl group just can't seem to catch a break. They received major criticism over pro-Japanese elements in their content, also presenting another negative look on their parent company HYBE, whos are in the midst of the Dahn World scandal, Illegal charting, false album sales and more.

Netizens have been commenting the below:

[+264, -5] It's over for them. Farewell.

[+165, -1] All this time, no one cared enough for this to get enough attention or even for anyone to notice it but now it can't be unseen. The 1945 Project was real, freedom for all.

[+31, -1] I remember writing a comment about how that clip in the MV looked like the rising sun and I got a ton of hate for it.

[+98, -1] It just keeps getting deeper the more you dig, even when you think there couldn't possibly be more.

[+78, -2] All while at the center of their live singing controversy... how unfortunate, it's really the end for them now.

[+13, -1] New Jeans, you guys win..

[+12, -0] They crossed way over the line. The rising sun motif changes everything.

[+11, -0] It's over.

[+4, -0] As if the Coachella scandal wasn't bad enough... there was more. I had no idea.


What do you guys think the future of Le Sserafim is in their current state?
