I actually started listening to LE SSERAFIM because of a gif that someone on Dreamwidth embedded in their post about the Crazy MV! And then I watched some of their live TV performances... and some game shows with them... and then I watched some solo interviews...
It was kind of surprising for me to learn that they have a dedicated hatedom afterwards :( I'm probably not in deep enough to be a Fearnot, but I agree with you that they seem very fun and approachable, especially Sakura and Yunjin. I'll definitely be following their musical releases because they really are fun bops, and I like that their group has members from all over. The Crazy MV also introduced me to the genre of Ballroom culture and vogue dancing, which is incredibly cool! I hope that the House of Juicy Couture get more gigs after featuring in such a high profile vid :D
I'm not totally in tune with news in the industry, except for the bits that my kpop friends relay to me, but everything that I've heard about the MHJ and HYBE conflict is very messy. Hopefully the groups under their management aren't too badly affected by the whole situation :(
I hadn't heard about the Taeil situation until now, though. Definitely seconding what you said, that hopefully she can get justice and heal from it in the future. It sounds like he's already facing consequences to his career, which is a start.
It sounds like you've had some exciting times, recently :O Kpop club night! I have no recs, unfortunately, but I hope that you have another great time at this one!
