LE SSERAFIM and FEARLESS have surpassed 200 million views, proving their enduring impact and rising global popularity. The group’s confident image and strong performances helped shift domestic sentiment after a year of criticism and conflict. A court ruling in favor of ADOR further undermined the attacks against them, signaling a new golden era.
LE SSERAFIM Breaks 200 Million Views with FEARLESS Video
LE SSERAFIM achieved a new career milestone as their debut title track FEARLESS surpassed 200 million YouTube views on June 3. According to Source Music, the video hit that number at 11:27 PM, making it their second music video to reach this benchmark after ANTIFRAGILE. FEARLESS blends a distinct bass riff with a groovy rhythm to create a bold and stylish punk-inspired alternative pop track. Its lyrics express the group’s fearless attitude and determination to move forward, especially through lines like “Your words to hide my greed are strange / I won’t pretend to be humble anymore.” This strong message captured attention worldwide, contributing to the track’s lasting popularity and its continued relevance three years after its release.
FEARLESS Spirit Visualized Through LE SSERAFIM’s Bold Direction
The FEARLESS music video showcases LE SSERAFIM’s ambition to rise without hesitation, regardless of challenges or expectations. With scenes like perching on a car suspended in the air or leaping through bursts of fire, the members reveal unshaken confidence in visually intense situations. These moments reinforce the core message of the lyrics and align with their performance style, which emphasizes directness and strength. According to Source Music, the video remains beloved for its dynamic choreography, confident storytelling, and refined cinematography. Even long after its debut, the video continues to draw viewers who are captivated by both its sound and visual power.
LE SSERAFIM Expands Global Reach While Building FEARLESS Legacy
LE SSERAFIM has now produced eight music videos with over ten million views, proving their consistent popularity and growth across platforms. Their achievements online are matched by success on stage, especially as they continue their first world tour titled 2025 LE SSERAFIM TOUR ‘EASY CRAZY HOT’. Following their April concert in Incheon, they are preparing for performances in Kitakyushu on June 7 and 8, and Saitama on June 12, 14, and 15. This tour serves as both a showcase of their evolving artistry and a way to connect directly with fans around the world. The group’s steady rise reflects not only digital numbers but also meaningful interactions and strong stage presence that fans continue to support.
Public Opinion Shifts Following LE SSERAFIM’s Recent Performances
Public sentiment in Korea has recently shifted in favor of LE SSERAFIM, following a long period of backlash and controversy throughout 2024. Online communities like MLBPARK, known for housing many fans, and theqoo, once filled with anti-fans, are now posting messages of support and celebration. This positive reaction contrasts sharply with last year’s criticism, which focused on their Coachella performance and attacks from ADOR’s Min Heejin. A turning point came during their Incheon concert in April, where their confident and polished live performance reshaped the public’s perception. Many began to recognize their skills more clearly and re-evaluated previous judgments that had been clouded by online conflict.
Legal Ruling Reshapes the Narrative
The public view of LE SSERAFIM improved further after a legal ruling dismissed NewJeans’ claims and fully supported ADOR’s position. In March, ADOR requested an injunction to prevent NewJeans from signing advertising contracts and to maintain agency authority, and the court sided with ADOR while rejecting all arguments made by NewJeans. This decision directly weakened the basis of Min Heejin’s earlier criticisms of LE SSERAFIM, leading many to question her intentions and credibility. Since then, aggressive posts targeting the group have vanished from major communities, and many fans now see this period as the beginning of LE SSERAFIM’s second golden era.
