The debut product of "BTS's sister" is controversial because of the lack of investment. The private lives of members of the group were also dissected.

At exactly 4 pm on May 2 (Vietnamese time), LE SSERAFIM officially debuted with the MV FEARLESS. The rookie girl group created from 2 companies Big Hit and Source Music quickly received attention, many comments related to this MV.

First of all, FEARLESS is a typical pop song, combined with funk and deep riffs to create a lively and somewhat witty overall song. The song expresses the strong ego of the girls, not afraid of words and living true to themselves.

FEARLESS is a song that conveys the message of being true to yourself, moving forward without fear

Most of the MV's duration is dance scenes in a closed room, highlighting the choreography as well as clearly defining the sexy concept that the group pursues. Right from the beginning, the 6 girls impressed with the strong and bold choreography of kicking legs and flipping hair.

However, the scene with the sexy "scrubbing" choreography made viewers immediately think of Lisa (BLACKPINK). The YG idol girl who had the stage to perform Swalla had an extremely viral sexy move at that time. To this day, that move is still remembered as a strong mark of Lisa's charm.

The next thing that catches the eye of the viewer is that the FEARLESS MV has a lot of dance scenes but few scenes with special investment in content. Watching some scenes in the MV, I thought that the group was just filming dance practice, not the MV. Netizens also do not appreciate the MV part and summarize with 2 words "superficial":

- The song is good but the choreography is boring.

- I agree that the music is good but the MV looks superficial, nothing to watch.

- The MV seems to try to cram a lot of choreography but the dance team isn't very good.

Another minus point is that there are many English parts and it seems that the group does not pronounce clearly, it is difficult to hear the song completely:

- Being mentally prepared is a bad song but I didn't expect this song to be better than expected.

- I can't hear the lyrics clearly.

- Why are the lyrics so English?

- More than expected.

The song "FEARLESS" is said to do better than many people's expectations

However, the controversy of Kim Garam's controversial school violence suspect before the debut still made many people uncomfortable:

- For a group with members of school violence, lyrics like this are truly speechless.

- Are the lyrics inspired by school violence?

- Has anyone forgotten the Kim Garam case?

Many people still haven't calmed down about Kim Garam's controversial school violence scandal

Before releasing the MV, at the debut showcase, journalists also questioned this issue. Leader Kim Chaewon replied, "Can I speak first as the leader? In that regard, the company is responding according to due process. Because it is very complicated, we need to be careful. , cannot answer directly here. Please ignore this question. We will have the opportunity to clarify more in the future."

Kim Garam added, "As Chaewon noona said, it's hard for me to explain anything about this, hope everyone understands. I will work hard as a member of LE SSERAFIM." .

Thus, Kim Chaewon supported Kim Garam when being interviewed for the above sensitive question. However, netizens still think this is the answer to cover up the scandal as well as "cheat" to suspect that the leader of the group LE SSERAFIM cheated to get a debut with IZ*ONE in 2018.

- It's hard to answer yes. It's not easy to find reasons to cover up.

- Is it difficult to explain? If there is no school violence, why avoid it?

- It is difficult to explain this problem? Kim Chaewon cheated and understood, but where is Kim Garam saying that's difficult?

- A cheater answers on behalf of a school bully?
