Following their second performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, LE SSERAFIM continues to be embroiled in controversy as netizens question the group’s singing abilities and authenticity on stage.

Taking the stage with “Good Bones” as the background music, LE SSERAFIM drew a crowd similar to their previous show, attracting around 30,000 audience members. Despite their efforts to deliver an improved performance, the group faced criticism for relying on AR vocals instead of singing live during the broadcast.

While some acknowledged the group’s attempt to address previous criticisms, the majority of netizens expressed frustration and skepticism, questioning LE SSERAFIM’s suitability for the festival. Comments such as “Why are they performing at that festival despite having no skills at all?” and “You think the public is stupid?” reflect ongoing disappointment with the group’s perceived lack of improvement.

LE SSERAFIM initially faced severe backlash after their first Coachella performance, marked by unstable pitches and vocal cracks. Member Sakura’s post-show remarks, which some interpreted as dismissive of criticism, further fueled public discontent.

Amidst the controversy, member Kim Chae-won added to the stir by sharing a video featuring singer Doja Cat showing her middle finger on social media, drawing mixed reactions from fans.

As LE SSERAFIM goes through ongoing criticism and scrutiny, the group’s future trajectory remains uncertain, with public sentiment divided over their performance at the prestigious festival.
