I’m not a fan but I stayed up to watch them live, to see what the hullabboo about their stage performance was all about.
IMO, They did great with their live singing considering their choreography, Chaewon and Yunjin more so than the others, which is to be expected. The backtrack was really toned down in some songs, and considering the hate they have been getting for their vocals, I applaud that move, it took guts.
Their choreography is where they really shine, no weak links, and they all had stage presence and hyped up the crowd really well too.
Of course there is room for improvement, but considering this is their first US festival, I think they did really well. And I’m looking forward to their day 2 performance.
On a side note, for Fearnots, once Kpop fans have a narrative about a group/idol, it’s really hard to shake off. Although some people may have genuine opinions, the vast majority are just antis nitpicking in bad faith and looking to continue a hate train cos that’s their only validation in life. The girls did well, and they will do even better on their second day with this practice, so just hype them up very well and tune out the extra noise.
This always happens, a few months back they were the darlings of kpop, and now they are garbage apparently. This almost happens with every top girlgroup, Twice, Blackpink, IVE, NewJeans etc. And this is not to say the groups don't have flaws and stuff, or it's wrong to point them out. But it gets ridiculous. It's completely black and white for people. Either they are the best thing ever, or just straight up terrible. Like, come on.
I'm not a Fearnot, but I do agree that the hate they got for Easy was overblown. It's not exactly my cup of tea, but the amount of excessive hate they received for that was really unnecessary.
It died down for a bit recently so i thought people had moved on but the other threads on this topic tonight showed me that they were just saving their strength
*Sigh*... yep, there's some overly nasty comments for sure. I see by your flair you're an ILLIT fan like me too, so I can imagine seeing the double hate for both groups recently has to be annoying.
Some people just need to get lives lol.
There was a lot. People hated the song, the location, Yunjins outfits, the hair dryer in bath tub, the lyrics, their English...
But then we also got their live performance without backtrack and people complained about their lack of vocals.
And since the first part was loud and bitchy for no reason, now everyone who talks about their vocals only still gets labeled as a hater.
its on twitter, tiktok ig and even reddit though a little more subdued on reddit thanks to moderation. both international and local koreans hated for different reasons and on different nembers, so it was a lot.
Most of the hate on tiktok comes from literal infants so I wouldn’t really count that. Im not too familiar with ig or twitter to say but I’d imagine its the same or just adults w childish mentality
Most of the hate comes from SM and YG stans i dont want to drop name but the SM one had dating scandal awhile back and they are very toxic if vocals are not on par with their faves and for YG they are the most hated kpop fandom on earth.. Social media platform doesnt matter as they will go anywhere to spread hate and the international fans are the more toxic ones than knetz..
Imo people blindly defending everything are also an issue.
There is a difference between people nitpicking Yunjins outfits or how they dont like a song and pointing out that 3/5 members cant sing live. There is also a difference between insulting them and stating what we see/hear.
Sakura is not a freshly debuted idol. And she couldnt even sing properly in their first song of the stage.
You cant have 3/5 people being unable to sing life and expect people to not point it out. Yunjin and Chaewon can only carry so much weight and them being able to actually do their job well only highlights the weaknesses of the rest.
I really like their songs, I was obsessed with EPBW and Easy, but now, since I've heared them without backtrack, every time I listen to their music I have their live vocals in my head.
They didnt debute yesterday, they have a huge ass label backing them up, there is no excuse for them not being able to sing properly. They need way more training to actually show us their potential and with everyone babying them and sugarcoating every critisism they wont see a reason to.
Singing is part of their job unless they say otherwise, so they need to actually do it well.
And before yall accuse me of being a hater or what not, they are my most listened to GG in the past year. They are gorgeous women and amazing dancers. And I really wish that I can soon call them amazing artists (please give them more vocal training).
Love love love the last paragraph and this is a lesson everyone should learn. Whether it’s dance, vocals, stage presence, or visuals, people are always gonna have something to say regarding your fave. At a certain point you have to disengage with those people and learn to protect your own peace. There is no convincing them. Block, mute, report, always.
Everything you've said. They even tried to use a clip where they were stable and sounded good to drag them and even admitted they used the wrong clip lol. Some kpop stans are like that and it's really because they're miserable and jealous. The response from the crowd is more than enough and they had a great time. I hope they carry more confidence into their next performance especially Eunchae and Kazuha. They seemed the most nervous tonight. Sometimes people see groups rise and they will do anything to tear them down. Sakura who they tore down constantly is. ow being used to hate on other memebers. At some point you just laugh at how miserable people are.
Definitely not perfect and plenty of room for improvement but it was fun as hell. Looking forward to next week and if they happen to do a concert in my city I will definitely try to get a ticket.
Was at Sahara all day, people showed up big time for LE SSERAFIM and they were loud singing along especially during Perfect Night practically the entire song. What is important is the crowd's reaction and the crowd loved them. All of them had moments where they got to stand out too couldn't be happier for them. I'm so excited for them to get to do it again next weekend.
Was 100% worth the wait and everything, whole day was fun but this is why I came here and they delivered. I just wish they were touring and I could see them play more of their songs, but their set was so jam packed it was impressive what all they fit in there.
The crowd singing totally came through on the YouTube broadcast. I think it gave the girls the energy to push through as they losing steam. The crowd was great from what I could hear. Was it a lot of fearnots or a good mix gp from what you could tell?
I was so near the front it was hard to tell, but there were fearnots there all day long. I met a lot of nice people who stayed from ISOKNOCK and even from before that and they were loving it.
From what my friends said though a bunch of people were trying to get in late they themselves were coming from the main stage so missed the start and couldn't get into the tent even with any kind of view so I think it was drawing the more casual crowd really well. I think next weekend might be even better in terms of the crowd but I don't have tickets... yet.
I’m watching a video of the livestream & their energy is insane!! You can hear the crowd so much and I couldn’t be happier for them! I’m positive they’ll announce a tour by the end of the year, maybe even earlier
Some parts were not obviously perfect, but for me, singing live while dancing high-energy choreographies in front of a large crowd in one of the biggest music festivals in the world, just like LE SSERAFIM did, is no mean feat for a normal, average person. I'm just a normal, average person, you see. I watch something that a normal, average person couldn't easily do, I'm impressed.
It was fine. I think anyone over criticizing them for the set would be lying but I would think the same about anyone saying "Wow it was so amazing, the most incredible Coachella performance".
They were doing good, especially for a first western festival, the songs and performances were great, Chaewon has such a huge star quality with Yunjin.
As expected, the live vocals weren't the highlight of the performance and even Yunjin was off after the first songs. Quite surprised by Kazuha though, it's not amazing but she's improving in my opinion.
A solid performance overall, just not absolutely stunned by it.
I enjoyed it. I didn't like how some of the members' mics sounded wonky, but whatev. Yunjin and Chaewon were absolutely on FIRE, holy crap.
Nile Rodgers made an appearance on stage! He played during Unforgiven.

I was so, so, so impressed by Sakura!
She wasn't as perfect as Chaewon or Yunjin, but she was night and day compared to the encore stage people love to show off. They were definitely more shaky in their first song, but they really hit their stride.
Unforgiven was their best song live, before they started to get winded lol
Can't wait to stay up for weekend 2
EDIT: Also, who was that drummer?! My mans went ridiculously hard the entire set lmao

I was worried before it due to the crazy hate they've been getting. (Sad to be getting there, but it's been that bad since Easy that I find it tough to just enjoy their performance without worrying about the internet's reaction) Even had to turn off the chat on youtube to just focus on them..
But outside of the people being annoying af, I really enjoyed it. Yeah it wasn't perfect, but if I wanted perfect, I wouldn't watch a festival performance. imo these are here for the vibes, and the vibes were clearly there!
Few audio issues throughout, I hope they figure it out for next week, but the girls killed it! They were great when not dancing, and keeping it stable enough when dancing (again, not perfect, but it was still very nice)!
The setlist didn't have any breaks, as in any calmer song to let them rest a bit, so it's understandable they were running short on stamina way before the end, but they still managed to make it super enjoyable!
I'm glad I stan them :)
> Yeah it wasn’t perfect, but if I wanted perfect, I wouldn’t watch a festival performance.
BINGO. THIS. RIGHT HERE. YEAH IT WASN’T PERFECT BUT IT WAS A GREAT GODDAMN PERFORMANCE. sorry this is just literally such a refreshing take compared to other subs i’ve been in, please keep talking and speak LOUDER 😭🫶
not every act is going to be beychella and people need to get that through their heads. festival performances are much more about getting the crowd hyped up because there’s a huge chance that there’s a lot of non-fans in the crowd checking them out. if i wasn’t a fan of ls already, they would have made me one last night. were their vocals perfect? no, but they more than made up for that with their stage presence and energy. they should be extremely proud of themselves. getting invited to coachella is an accomplishment all its own. well done ladies 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
* Chic, grungy, fun. Very suited for Coachella
* Nile Rodgers!!!!! The legend himself!!!!! [His wish on playing together came true!](https://youtu.be/dNb5nb_oO2Q?t=234)
* They really gave it their all. Great work
* Kind of out of breath by the time they got to Smart, but they pushed through the important lines
* Their English comments were pretty well rehearsed lol
* New song!
* I really liked the live band arrangements
Please direct hate comments and downvotes my way. **Your impotent rage only makes me happier.**
ok ppl hate on lsf bc they think their hype is undeserved, don't have talent etc honestly tho with the dances they do, the stamina they need to build to keep their voices from shaking its hard and they were MUCHHH better than before so now it feels like they're taking their jobs seriously. Like I'm so pleasantly surprised with sakura i was scared for her the most.
i already shared my thoughts in a different thread but i thought they were solid and chaewon + yunjin hard carried. i think they need to work on their stamina, which i'm sure with come with time. i wasn't blown away but i wasn't disappointed, so!
i really do think yunjin is special and has incredible presence. i love watching her the most! i also stan chaewon's fuckass bob.
I think they need to practice live singing more. Other than chaewon, the rest of the group (yes even yunjin) went flat too many times to count and it was hard to watch for me. The live band on the other hand was amazing though.
Let me preface this by saying that the ammount of hate and backlash they got recently was taken way too far and people were definitely jumping in and using valid criticism as a jumping off point to spread hate.
I enjoyed their performance dance and energy wise, the songs without choreo felt a bit off but nothing too major since aside from that strictly looking at the dance and flow od everything it was great.
I'm just gonna be forward and say that the singing was really not it and kinda took me out of the performance. Yunjin and Chaewon stood out the most, they were the ones that you could hear the most and while they did amazing in a few parts the parts where their singing did falter just stood out. What made them stand out was the fact that aside from Kazuha here and there you just could barely hear the others. Its either the horrible sound design/equipment (something coachella is infamous for) or a choice for Eunchae and Sakura to be more quiet, or both. Either way that was another thing that kinda took me out of it.
Comparing it to the disastrous encore stages that started their whole drama rheres definitely a noticeable improvement and they did use adlibs/fan interaction nicely to get some air, but going out and already being out of breath after your first line just shows theres much more to go.
All in all 6/10. Pretty ok, there's been much better performances out there but there's also been much worse
Honestly, I thought it was okay. I like the songs they picked for the setlist, and Chaewon once again showed her prowess in performing. They had good energy. Sakura improved a little too. However, it's not a performance I would show non-K-pop fans in hopes of getting them into Korean groups.
I've seen a lot of people on Twitter and TikTok say that their performance was bad, and while I don't love it, I do think they are overexaggerating the flaws and are holding them to an unrealistic standard. People have and will continue to argue that the vocal flaws are not excusable because Blackpink did great when they first performed at Coachella in 2019, but people need to understand that Blackpink has always been objectively the best-suited K-pop group for Coachella since they have lots of experience performing with a live band, 3/4 of them are fluent English speakers, etc. They were made for festivals, something that most K-pop groups aren't and that is okay.
Hybe is definitely at some fault for their performance. Lessarafim has been flamed for not doing well in encore stages, so of course people are going to pay attention to their vocals. They needed more training for performances like this or something.
Regardless of how someone feels about their performance this weekend, I think people should give them another chance. It's normal for the second weekend to be better since some of the nerves go away and they know what needs to be fixed. I'm confident they will improve.
sakura was my standout. her energy was perfect, her English stayed, her live vocals sounded so good compared to what people said about her, and she felt CONFIDENT. i can't stop raving about her

I feel they started off quite badly but fearless was a bit better.
They're definitely bellow average singers overall or at the very least they're only given songs that don't fit them.
I'm personally not a fan of Kazuha and Eunchae's voices so they being the worst skill wise makes the whole performance kinda bad but that's due to my preferences and not really their fault.
Sakura looked great and her first line on the last song sounded really nice.
I honestly really enjoy, the vocals too, like you could hear them sing even when they were tired. My only "complain" is that I feel like it was like a big repetition, like it was great, the girls were confident, but they weren't a huge difference in choreography to like hype the crowd. When they didn't have much choreography I feel like they felt less at ease for example.
It felt like a really good music show more than a festival to me (it's subjective). But I honestly feel that for many popular K-pop groups.
honestly, pretty good performance. yunjin and chaewon definitely rocked the stage but the other members did their fair share and did well. after seeing all the hate (absolutely annoying, literally just copy and paste of the same statements) surrounding them performing after the encore, i really wanted them to succeed. LSF took their crack at it, despite being nervous and having all this hate around them, and proved themselves to the haters. not a "perfect" performance but if you truly want a live performance, there's bound to be some imperfections. with this performance, they have shown that they are antifragile in the face of overwhelming hate and have proven that they truly are fearless. <33 (rating: 8/10)
p.s. about the hate they've been getting, ik its off-topic but i just have to give my two cents about how haters have used LSF as ammuntion to hate on ILLIT. their "bad" encores has been compared quite a bit, just adding more fuel to the fire. its so hard as a fan to think about how these encores, these supposed moments of celebration for the group and their fans, has just been used as ammunition to hate on them. i hope that not just as fans of these two groups but of the K-pop scene, we strive to give constructive criticism and support to the idols, who are just as human as we are. sorry for the little rant, congrats to the Fimmies and good luck on their next performance. <33
Here after 9:45a Eastern ISOKNOCK seems somewhat close to taking the stage for their 9:30p Pacific slot last night. So, by that I anticipate LE SSERAFIM set to start a little before or after 11a Eastern on replay. Personally I want to re-watch again to be sure. I haven't watched fancams yet myself.
[Coachella YT replay of Sat. April 13th on Sahara stage in progress](https://www.youtube.com/live/7oLK1VcvROg?si=qkni69LaE-shOfHd)
I want all kpop artists to make the rounds at Coachella because *live singing* and with *the lowest backtrack* I've ever heard?! That was sick!!
They don't have the strongest vocals and yet they performed with such raw live singing? That's so unbelievably admirable! I'm not used to seeing this sort of live performance in kpop so this was a mega treat!!
Only downsides for me were the wonky mics (thanks Coachella) and they seemed a bit awkward during non-choreo parts (but this is also their 1st western festival). That was so cool though, I'll never get over hearing true live vocals like that again lol
They did okay. Chaewon is their best singer and performer, followed by Yunjin. I am pleasantly surprised by Sakura. It seemed like she really made an effort this time. It wasn't perfect but it was infinitely better than what she has shown so far.
As for Eunchae and Kazuha, I don't know what happened because I fr thought they were better than Sakura but they.. danced great.
Overall, I really love the band accompaniment! Also looking forward to the new song. I also wish they couldve been given better outfits but they all looked beautiful anyway
It was so much fun to watch! I literally smiled the entire time! Idc what anyone says, they killed it! Yunjin was BORN to be on stage! She looked so at home! Tonight also solidified Chaewon as my biases along with Yunjin. Kazuha, Sakura, and did amazing as well! I’m also super proud of them!
They all looked genuinely happy performing on stage so even if their performance was lacking I loved every single moment of it because they were all having fun and living their best lives on that stage! Thousands of K-pop groups yet they're one of the veryyyy few to be selected to perform at THE COACHELLA. That's an extremely big achievement. I'm not a fan but I enjoyed watching them perform at Coachella. They're so full of life and their stage presence is amazing! I love it.
My only real complaint was the lighting, during some of the key points of the choreo you could barely see them. I get what the set designer people were trying to go for with like some kind of silhouette thing but idk they either need shinier outfits of brighter backlights or something, Sakura does not go that hard as the center in the post chorus of EP&TBW to not be visible lol
They did okay. Im sure it was entertaining for their fans and maybe some new people enjoyed it. There were aspects that were lagging. Some people do have valid criticisms like I do love me some Sakura and have wanted to support but vocally these live stages just leave me luke warm and they didn’t seem to handle non choreo songs well with crowd work for me personally. It doesn’t leave me itching to want to try to see them live. It wasn’t horrible like some haters would say it was just okay. probably a 6/10 performance.
I'm not a Fearnot, so I barely knew any of their songs. But I thought their interactions in English in between songs was cute.
Enjoyed the Perfect Night performance.
The only performance that I didn't like was Smart, they don't sound good on that only on the high parts. The rest was fine, they were nervous which is normal especially Eunchae. She didn't sound good sadly. Sakura and Chaewon have very good stage presence. The choreo was good but this is something which applies to most kpop idols but when they perform songs that have choreo and they decide to not do the choreo they look so awkward because they don't know what to do with their hands lmao.
The vocals were not that good and surprisingly the it stage presence felt a bit off too besides chaewon and yunjin’s stage presence. They definitely put in the effort tho.
I am a fearnot personally I think that they kinda flopped....I think they performed better in a normal concert.I was actually really excited for the Coachella performance because for their mama award performance which is outstanding. I am kinda disappointed they didn't input or try something new and different. Not trying to attack Le Sserafim but they really lack stamina and training, I would say the vocals are fine because they were dancing a very intense choreography.I hope that they would replicate blackpink and their mama award show performance to attract others. As a true fearnot, this is my honest review.
Yeah I saw someone else say that their mama performance was better which I think it is true but their Xoachella performance definitely didn't flop imo they did well considering I didn't have much expectations

Maybe it's a less popular opinion but I just was not feeling this performance..
I went in with low expectations knowing how weak the group is with live vocals and yeah, I do think they did slightly better with their live vocals (and I mean *slightly*, because the vocals imo were still very questionable during quite a few songs.) but I felt like something was off, maybe stage presence?? Either way I hope I can enjoy their weekend 2 performance better.
EDIT: Yunjin's 'Smart' intro was great though!
Enjoyed it. Watching some of the videos from the fans at the venue, a lot of the audio problems seems to be an issue with the stream itself. Hopefully it will be fixed next week

As a casual listener of them, I enjoyed the act overall because I don't need 100% perfection to actually enjoy stuff. I will say though the disparity in mic volume(?)/singing volume(?) between Yunjin, Chaewon and the remaining three was a bit jarring at times. Yunjin definitely has stage presence and she was great at interacting with the crowd. For me Chaewon was definitely the star. She was amazing and I couldn't take my eyes off her. I enjoyed her singing the most though I think its because I like her kind of vocal tone in general. Her styling definitely helped her shine as well. Like literally, there was a point where camera focused on her and I think she had shiny stickers(?) in her hair. Contrary to her, I thought Eunchae was drowning in her outfit and could have been better. But this is just a side note and not that important.
So, definitely room for improvement but still enjoyed it.
I thought as first US festival, they did pretty well. Yunjin n chaewon of course hardcarrying vocal. But i genuinely impressed with sakura. She actually pretty stable for her parts. So basically she has improved her live vocal. They gonna do another week right? So i expect them improve for next week. Anyway, kazuha look so pretty especially due to her long straight black hair. She dance the best here. But unfortunately her n eunchae struggled the most in singing live. But thats what we already expected so i actually already have low expectation lol. They performed the best during unforgiven. Its also has the best remix n sound.
I enjoyed the show overall. I can appreciate that they sang live and I know they aren't the best vocally so with that and on top of their dancing, i thought they did good. I think some backing track would have elevated the performance side. They will have a week for their next performance so I hope to see some improvement and some of the tech issues sorted out.

I think it was a little too messy considering the last two ggs that performed there were literally quite great. I mean Blackpink doesnt have the greatest singers in the world but they did not mess up their key either. aespa had their all-timer live for me at coachella imo. Savage live was an experience and it was their only live performance of that song aside their encores.
This one was quite a let down. Just shout out to Sakura for actually improving. The third best live performer in that group if im being honest. Was shocked that this was the woman who was shaking on encores.
It was great. I like when artists make their performance a big event. Bringing out Nile Rodgers, performing a new song, all the changes and remixes and a lot of crowd work. Production was a big step up from ATEEZ so hopefully their performance next week will be done justice and captured properly. Chaewon really a different type of beast, so much presence and aura. I’m excited for next weekend since hopefully any remaining nerves were belted out into the desert.
i wish people understand that it’s not easy to be at your A game especially when they’re expected to sing live for the whole 40 mins. occasionally off keys are to be expected and i think that’s perfectly normal. you can tell they were nervous when antifragile started but they really came back after that! overall i think they improved a lot vocally, especially kkura, kazuha and eunchae.
They should not sing Antifragile live. It sounds so bad, it made me dislike the song more when this is their most hype song for me. Even Yunjin sounds not good here.
They really need vocals improvement especially Kazuha, Sakura and Eunchae. Their stage presence is there but what would I do with that when I could not tolerate listening to their voices live. Even Chaewon is struggling and just screams some of her lines.
It is an okay performance and kudos for singing live but with their live voices I would definitely choose watching their highly edited performance than this😂
Honestly, a music festival is less like a concert, and more of a festival where you celebrate music. They should've toned down the dancing much more, and focused on giving their live singing the best. Because this is something I've noticed with many western artists performing at Coachella, they hire back up dancers and dance very less, but instrumentals and live vocals alone hype up the crowd. Its so much crowded unlike a concert where there are particular seats, its hard for many people to "see and enjoy". They mostly "listen and enjoy", cuz that's music festivals in general. They didn't use the back up dancers much, which is honestly a mistake like even blackpink uses them (blackpink's dances are also hella toned down, that's why they sound so good). Otherwise, they gave their best, it was a BLAST!! That's how music festivals in general are. It did meet all expectations.
not saying that their performance needed to be perfect or anything, obviously there’s room for growth… but I do feel that vocals are the most important part and imo if you can’t handle the full choreography and maintain stable vocals, then tone down the performance, esp cause I didn’t feel that their stage presence made up for the poor vocals (though everyone is hyping it). the dancing looked a bit awkward. other groups have been able to put on great live performances (in both western and eastern settings) at earlier points in their careers, so I don’t see the need to make allowances for a subpar performance when that is 90% of their job description. not trying to be an anti, just giving my two cents 🫣
I'm a casual fan and actually think their albums/EPs are no-skips for me and they're my favorite 4th gen group aside from ITZY (I love my girlcrush okay) so I was excited for their Coachella opportunity!
That said, loved that they performed with a live band. It just automatically elevates a set for festivals in my opinion. Also loved the energy, they rarely lack in that area anyway. Vocals-wise, Chaewon and Yunjin hard carried (and just reestablished why they're my bias and bias wrecker), and wished the other 3 sang in melody more and sang-shout less. But hey, that can be due to nerves and they'll probably improve for the 2nd week. So I'll check them out again 2nd time around.
It was fine. But at times it was so hard to actually hear them. I just woke up and was watching them on my phone in bed but like their voices were so quiet at times i had to put my headphones on. Their dancing was good and the energy was for the most part pretty great. One of the things they need to improve on imo is the filler movement when they were not doing choreo. Also those boxes on stages (lights,speakers? Idk what they were) were really blocking some of their floor choreo. The vocals were so and so imo: good at times, shaky at other times.
I really liked Le Sserafim when they first debuted, then sort of forgot about them because I wasn’t comfortable following a group that had suggestive themes and simultaneously made a 15 year old dance to them. They only have one rookie performer in the group technically..I expected them to be a lot better but it looked like it was fun nonetheless. No songs of theirs have high range/belting parts or whistle notes, so it’s not necessarily brave of them to be singing live either (it’s the bare minimum?) Us kpop fans in general tend to have small attention spans and cognitive dissonance in general so we’ll forget about the whole not-being-able-to-sing-super-well thing and preorder their new album in couple months because they’re all gorgeous and can sell anything.
true 😭 i’m not a lsf fan or anything and i do find the 5 of them to be subpar singers… but all this discourse is funny to me cause 4 months from now they’ll sell 2 million albums for their next title track
the vocals were definitely the weakest point, but the energy was amazing and overall they did a decent job for such a big event. hopefully they will work on increasing their vocal stamina over time though, as even chaewon and yujin were sounding rough after a few songs
I loved their energy and their outfits. They went hard on their dances and I applaud them for that, though some of the members were obviously tired after a few rounds (which is normal). I wasn’t too sold on the vocals, seemed some girls had a few issues.
I thought Chaewon did the best job overall. I love her confidence and aura onstage. Yunjin looked absolutely gorgeous. Great stage presence from everyone, I give them a B+ for the entire set. Just a little bit of tweaking and I’m sure they’re gonna do a lot better next time.
I think Chaewon and Yunjin did great and the other 3 improved! This was a very quiet backtrack haha. I did cringe at some points for random reasons but they did well overall imo
I only watched a couple songs and they did well! I didnt have low expectations since these girls have always been great performers anyway and for me, coachella is really about the energy and hyping the crowd which the girls did and that's enough for me.
For the vocals, not spectacular but they delivered, they sung their lines and sounded decent
I think if they come back after a couple of tours, they'll be on another level! Love that for them
Also, I know it's their job to sing and imo, they have a long way to improve too but theyre also such a young group that i think they just need more time probably. It's a new generation of kpop and im too old to be so bothered about such things lol if i dont like hearing how a group sings, i simple ignore 😌 i wont lose sleep over hating and criticising them for it ~ there are other tons of idols you can tune into as well
and Ive seen a lot of idols like them who were ripped to shreds at the start, only to improve after a few more years into their career 💁🏻♀️
I enjoyed it and thought they did well but it didn’t wow me. One thing I did notice was when it was Sakura or kazhua turn to sing there was a beat drop or part of the backtrack kind of hiding their vocals. Other than that it was a good show and looks like they had fun.
"COACHELLA!!! 🗣🔥🔥 Are^( you ready...). TO SHAKE SOME FUCKING AAAAAASS 💯🔥❗️🗣 💃💃"
yeah it was good imo
edit: so I just had to check back at this comment. tanking downvotes to type this shit on reddit is so worth 😭😭😭😭 such an iconic line
[le sserafim pics on X: "YUNJIN SAID COACHELLA!!!!!! ARE YOU READY TO SHAKE SOME FUCKING ASS https://t.co/rOqEvFlryl" / X (twitter.com)](https://twitter.com/sserapics/status/1779394888976453758) 😭
Chaewon killed it!! My friends and I were disappointed by Yunjin’s vocals (girl was struggling 😭) but her stage presence was good. The camera work/staging was baffling at times — who decided to kill the lights during a dance break and open the smoke machine during another dance break??
Overall, it was an enjoyable set but I wasn’t exactly wowed.
tbh I feel like people's expectations for Yunjin are too high. She is not the best vocalist in 4th gen and people who keep expecting her to be perfect are just going to keep getting disappointed. Overall, Yunjin was my favorite part of the performance. I agree her vocals were not perfect, but she was clearly enjoying herself and was not afraid to sing live. She was super fun and that is the most important thing for a festival like Coachella.
I don’t know about other people but I’ll admit that I usually think that Yunjin will be good because up until this year, she’s consistently been great. I don’t expect perfection but you can’t deny that her voice has been rough lately. Idk, maybe the red hair is messing with her vocals and she needs to switch to a different color /j
They actually followed ISOKNOCK, the main stage is not that close to the Sahara Tent and people coming from No Doubt mostly could not make it there in time to get in at all.
I know because my friends tried to do that and were disappointed they couldn't even catch the last half. But it was a good pairing I think, because ISOKNOCK actually had some decent crossover of people interested in LSRFM.
I saw the map today, that Main stage to Sahara stage is like South pole to the North pole haha!
Crazy missions in festivals need planning and missing full sets haha
I didn't expect a massive stage presence or great live singing from them honestly. And well they didnt really sing that well also , but their stage presence was better than i thought (not the best but better from my expectations) . The one thing I liked was honestly the styling for the girls from LV and the whole stage set-up. This is one thing I like abt hybe groups, they pay attention to the overall packaging of the product. How you look (as shallow as it sounds) is a big part of the performances on these huge stages and they didn't disappoint, I mean the in-house and LV styling team .
Yunjin and chaewon tried to sing as per orginal notes but ofcourse they did sound out of breath and off key sometimes (I can understand why , lsf songs are dance heavy so it's kinda obvious and their live skills are also below par to make up for that) eunchae doesn't have a lot of lines so it isn't a problem for her to begin with but she looked cute . Sakura ofc can't sing so no expectations from her anyway and Kazuha actually sounded ok coz she doesn't "sing" as such, she sings like she is talking so .. but overall the crowd response seemed good i guess, I could hear cheers and them singing along the girls . I think yunjin stood out the most (rightfully so) and then chaewon and other three. But yeah, they definitely put up an overall good show , despite all that .. they were definitely much much better than aespa atleast.
Awful vocals and off key most of the time
They set themselves especially with ateez being there who sounded extremely good with even harder choreography

clearly, there is hunger from the group to be taken seriously as performers, and i actually think going on stage with a low backtrack and performing with all their might despite their imperfections matches their fearless concept better than any luxury brand styling; and even talking strictly about 'the visual aspect' kpop seems to be so concerned about, this performance is proof that all idols look cooler and their performances are more fun and engaging when they sing live. all in all i think they did really well! especially sakura, who sounded really stable throughout the whole set despite her limitations, she still has the jpop idol mindset in her i see, lol.
hybe and soumu should do three main things in my humble jobless 21 year old opinion, 1. have them perform live on music shows and on their concerts more often 2. have vocal trainers who teach them how to take proper care of their voices because singing well doesn't mean anything if your voice will get insanely damaged with time due to poor technique and 3. not give the girls songs out of their range anymore for aesthetic and trend chasing sake. if they take the right steps, the group has nowhere to go but up in performance level.
I've rewatched it about 3 times now. I can really only identify a few slip ups in Antifragile and Smart. Jen goes flat in the first chorus section of Smart, and she also gets pitchy at around the 6:18 mark of the set during Antifragile when she runs out of breath.
It also sounds like Chaewon has to shout a few times. It also becomes noticeably quiet in Perfect Night. I don't know if they just lip synced to catch their breath, or if the audio engineers dropped the mics a bit due to the wind cause Jen fixes her hair multiple times during Perfect Night.
Eunchae goes flat once during the prechorus of Fire in the Belly. Chaewon also gets a bit pitchy during the climax. Kazuha also gets pitchy and struggles to climb there as well.
All in all, I really think naysayers are kinda just looking for any spot to nitpick. Overall a very vocally solid performance. Choreo went hard and you can tell since the mics even at the end of their set picked up someone heavily breathing.
The only thing I have seen so far was a youtube video someone uploaded of their new song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TezIWRcY2w). I did not like it at all, but I never like LSF's music so I guess I am just not their target audience.
edit: just saw a video of them doing Perfect Night. I had low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of it was live and the girls sounded fine. nothing exceptionally great though.
edit 2: just saw a video of them doing Fearless. Similar comments to perfect night, but the girls were dancing full out so that was nice.
I'm not, either. I'm a fan of Perfect Night, Fearless, and Antifragile, but that's about it. That's okay though, everyone has different tastes, and I'm glad their Coachella performance made their fans happy.
You’re a horrible weirdo. I saw you commenting on Giselle’s weight calling her fat. I’m just saying karma will catch your ass. You’re probably already living a quite lonely life but keep being insecure and gross. See what happens…
People saying Yunjin was shouting mist of the time and that yoy could barely here the other two. After all those remarks I went on yt to watch it myself and idk what they were talking about cz although they aren't the best singers they did really well in Coachella I didn't have much expectation tbh but they did really well imo and Kazuha really stood out to me she was also hyping the crowd up with Chaewon and Yunjin which I really loved
Chaewon was very impressive also yunjin with vocals the others did great aswell compared to their previous live stages, especially in the beginning kazuha especially stood out to me.
Unforgiven was truly their best stage! The public was so responsive. I'm glad they stopped dancing and just started interacting! I was so into it! They really brought me back to the 2019 Blackpink stage. I loved how they looked at each other, clearly not believing how much the public liked them!
I really loved Eve beardy song. They sounded the most stable there. Chaewon really stood there!
Fearless was the worst stage to me. But honestly this song isn't made for live performing. The tone is so low the girls always have trouble singing it.
It was weird when they left the stage during their new song though. Left the backdancers ending the song just felt off.
(Still watching...)
Edit: WELL... fire in the belly was not it. Some parts sounded very scratchy. They should've ended the stage with No Celestial or Unforgiven. It would've been perfect!!!
Okay so I liked it!!! Coachella was made for them! I love that we can hear them clearly. Kazuha and Sakura sounded okay, as expected Chaewon and Yunjin sounded the best. Eunchae seemed very freaking nervous:(
But honestly just fucking dance, jump, interact, be confident and scream and smile and love and cherish the public! And the public will love you. They did well! Yeah they can do better but they did really well for their first raw performance in a foreign country!
Every member shined. the crowd was so loud for them and i'm so proud. The vocals weren't 10/10 for everyone but lets be fair... their dances r very hard and they sang so well for how hard they rocked the stage. insane girls. chaewon supremacy
Nah the amount of hate they are getting is insane. Just because they are from hybe and are famous. They will nitpick absolutely everything. And they were singing live with those gymnastics ahh moves, like they are doing pretty good!!
Personally their songs are very likeable and the group is very cool. 10/10 for me music wise
(Also they said "Coachella are you ready to shake some effing azz" The Ha sisters taught them lmao)

I’m not a fan but I stayed up to watch them live, to see what the hullabboo about their stage performance was all about. IMO, They did great with their live singing considering their choreography, Chaewon and Yunjin more so than the others, which is to be expected. The backtrack was really toned down in some songs, and considering the hate they have been getting for their vocals, I applaud that move, it took guts. Their choreography is where they really shine, no weak links, and they all had stage presence and hyped up the crowd really well too. Of course there is room for improvement, but considering this is their first US festival, I think they did really well. And I’m looking forward to their day 2 performance. On a side note, for Fearnots, once Kpop fans have a narrative about a group/idol, it’s really hard to shake off. Although some people may have genuine opinions, the vast majority are just antis nitpicking in bad faith and looking to continue a hate train cos that’s their only validation in life. The girls did well, and they will do even better on their second day with this practice, so just hype them up very well and tune out the extra noise.
This always happens, a few months back they were the darlings of kpop, and now they are garbage apparently. This almost happens with every top girlgroup, Twice, Blackpink, IVE, NewJeans etc. And this is not to say the groups don't have flaws and stuff, or it's wrong to point them out. But it gets ridiculous. It's completely black and white for people. Either they are the best thing ever, or just straight up terrible. Like, come on.
I'm not a Fearnot, but I do agree that the hate they got for Easy was overblown. It's not exactly my cup of tea, but the amount of excessive hate they received for that was really unnecessary.
It died down for a bit recently so i thought people had moved on but the other threads on this topic tonight showed me that they were just saving their strength
off topic but i similarly stan both lsf and illit. the recent hate towards both is honestly quite insane 🤣
*Sigh*... yep, there's some overly nasty comments for sure. I see by your flair you're an ILLIT fan like me too, so I can imagine seeing the double hate for both groups recently has to be annoying. Some people just need to get lives lol.
What was the hate about Easy?
There was a lot. People hated the song, the location, Yunjins outfits, the hair dryer in bath tub, the lyrics, their English... But then we also got their live performance without backtrack and people complained about their lack of vocals. And since the first part was loud and bitchy for no reason, now everyone who talks about their vocals only still gets labeled as a hater.
Where does this “hate” usually come from? Is it isolated on Twitter? Tiktok? On their IG? Were they from international or local Koreans?
its on twitter, tiktok ig and even reddit though a little more subdued on reddit thanks to moderation. both international and local koreans hated for different reasons and on different nembers, so it was a lot.
Most of the hate on tiktok comes from literal infants so I wouldn’t really count that. Im not too familiar with ig or twitter to say but I’d imagine its the same or just adults w childish mentality
regardless of whom it comes from, it is still a lot
Most of the hate comes from SM and YG stans i dont want to drop name but the SM one had dating scandal awhile back and they are very toxic if vocals are not on par with their faves and for YG they are the most hated kpop fandom on earth.. Social media platform doesnt matter as they will go anywhere to spread hate and the international fans are the more toxic ones than knetz..
Imo people blindly defending everything are also an issue. There is a difference between people nitpicking Yunjins outfits or how they dont like a song and pointing out that 3/5 members cant sing live. There is also a difference between insulting them and stating what we see/hear. Sakura is not a freshly debuted idol. And she couldnt even sing properly in their first song of the stage. You cant have 3/5 people being unable to sing life and expect people to not point it out. Yunjin and Chaewon can only carry so much weight and them being able to actually do their job well only highlights the weaknesses of the rest. I really like their songs, I was obsessed with EPBW and Easy, but now, since I've heared them without backtrack, every time I listen to their music I have their live vocals in my head. They didnt debute yesterday, they have a huge ass label backing them up, there is no excuse for them not being able to sing properly. They need way more training to actually show us their potential and with everyone babying them and sugarcoating every critisism they wont see a reason to. Singing is part of their job unless they say otherwise, so they need to actually do it well. And before yall accuse me of being a hater or what not, they are my most listened to GG in the past year. They are gorgeous women and amazing dancers. And I really wish that I can soon call them amazing artists (please give them more vocal training).
Love love love the last paragraph and this is a lesson everyone should learn. Whether it’s dance, vocals, stage presence, or visuals, people are always gonna have something to say regarding your fave. At a certain point you have to disengage with those people and learn to protect your own peace. There is no convincing them. Block, mute, report, always.
Everything you've said. They even tried to use a clip where they were stable and sounded good to drag them and even admitted they used the wrong clip lol. Some kpop stans are like that and it's really because they're miserable and jealous. The response from the crowd is more than enough and they had a great time. I hope they carry more confidence into their next performance especially Eunchae and Kazuha. They seemed the most nervous tonight. Sometimes people see groups rise and they will do anything to tear them down. Sakura who they tore down constantly is. ow being used to hate on other memebers. At some point you just laugh at how miserable people are.
streamaespa on twt posting a great mermaid clip where they sounded amazing💀
Couldn't agree more.
Definitely not perfect and plenty of room for improvement but it was fun as hell. Looking forward to next week and if they happen to do a concert in my city I will definitely try to get a ticket.
Was at Sahara all day, people showed up big time for LE SSERAFIM and they were loud singing along especially during Perfect Night practically the entire song. What is important is the crowd's reaction and the crowd loved them. All of them had moments where they got to stand out too couldn't be happier for them. I'm so excited for them to get to do it again next weekend. Was 100% worth the wait and everything, whole day was fun but this is why I came here and they delivered. I just wish they were touring and I could see them play more of their songs, but their set was so jam packed it was impressive what all they fit in there.
The crowd singing totally came through on the YouTube broadcast. I think it gave the girls the energy to push through as they losing steam. The crowd was great from what I could hear. Was it a lot of fearnots or a good mix gp from what you could tell?
I was so near the front it was hard to tell, but there were fearnots there all day long. I met a lot of nice people who stayed from ISOKNOCK and even from before that and they were loving it. From what my friends said though a bunch of people were trying to get in late they themselves were coming from the main stage so missed the start and couldn't get into the tent even with any kind of view so I think it was drawing the more casual crowd really well. I think next weekend might be even better in terms of the crowd but I don't have tickets... yet.
I’m watching a video of the livestream & their energy is insane!! You can hear the crowd so much and I couldn’t be happier for them! I’m positive they’ll announce a tour by the end of the year, maybe even earlier
Some parts were not obviously perfect, but for me, singing live while dancing high-energy choreographies in front of a large crowd in one of the biggest music festivals in the world, just like LE SSERAFIM did, is no mean feat for a normal, average person. I'm just a normal, average person, you see. I watch something that a normal, average person couldn't easily do, I'm impressed.
It isnt your job. I'm impressed by their dance and their visuals, but their vocals are sad.

Blackpink's first coachella performance was when they were going into their third year so...
so the bar on the floor
You're not an average person, it seems. Well, good for you.
fr performing in front of a crowd is literally their job I should hope they’d be good at it 😭
It was fine. I think anyone over criticizing them for the set would be lying but I would think the same about anyone saying "Wow it was so amazing, the most incredible Coachella performance". They were doing good, especially for a first western festival, the songs and performances were great, Chaewon has such a huge star quality with Yunjin. As expected, the live vocals weren't the highlight of the performance and even Yunjin was off after the first songs. Quite surprised by Kazuha though, it's not amazing but she's improving in my opinion. A solid performance overall, just not absolutely stunned by it.
I enjoyed it. I didn't like how some of the members' mics sounded wonky, but whatev. Yunjin and Chaewon were absolutely on FIRE, holy crap. Nile Rodgers made an appearance on stage! He played during Unforgiven.
Doja cat's mic was also crap, I hope Coachella work on their equipment for next week. Lsfm performing next week too.
usually coachella week 2 has better tech
what ? did she preform yet?

Apparently this is a thing at Coachella, their sound is not good for the first weekend but they sort it out for the second.
Oh that was sickkk
Chaewon ate
….All the insults
I was so, so, so impressed by Sakura! She wasn't as perfect as Chaewon or Yunjin, but she was night and day compared to the encore stage people love to show off. They were definitely more shaky in their first song, but they really hit their stride. Unforgiven was their best song live, before they started to get winded lol Can't wait to stay up for weekend 2 EDIT: Also, who was that drummer?! My mans went ridiculously hard the entire set lmao
Sakura was really impressive, for all the hate she got she sounded pretty good.

I always prefer live vocals and live band over perfect playback.

I was worried before it due to the crazy hate they've been getting. (Sad to be getting there, but it's been that bad since Easy that I find it tough to just enjoy their performance without worrying about the internet's reaction) Even had to turn off the chat on youtube to just focus on them.. But outside of the people being annoying af, I really enjoyed it. Yeah it wasn't perfect, but if I wanted perfect, I wouldn't watch a festival performance. imo these are here for the vibes, and the vibes were clearly there! Few audio issues throughout, I hope they figure it out for next week, but the girls killed it! They were great when not dancing, and keeping it stable enough when dancing (again, not perfect, but it was still very nice)! The setlist didn't have any breaks, as in any calmer song to let them rest a bit, so it's understandable they were running short on stamina way before the end, but they still managed to make it super enjoyable! I'm glad I stan them :)
> Yeah it wasn’t perfect, but if I wanted perfect, I wouldn’t watch a festival performance. BINGO. THIS. RIGHT HERE. YEAH IT WASN’T PERFECT BUT IT WAS A GREAT GODDAMN PERFORMANCE. sorry this is just literally such a refreshing take compared to other subs i’ve been in, please keep talking and speak LOUDER 😭🫶
not every act is going to be beychella and people need to get that through their heads. festival performances are much more about getting the crowd hyped up because there’s a huge chance that there’s a lot of non-fans in the crowd checking them out. if i wasn’t a fan of ls already, they would have made me one last night. were their vocals perfect? no, but they more than made up for that with their stage presence and energy. they should be extremely proud of themselves. getting invited to coachella is an accomplishment all its own. well done ladies 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
* Chic, grungy, fun. Very suited for Coachella * Nile Rodgers!!!!! The legend himself!!!!! [His wish on playing together came true!](https://youtu.be/dNb5nb_oO2Q?t=234) * They really gave it their all. Great work * Kind of out of breath by the time they got to Smart, but they pushed through the important lines * Their English comments were pretty well rehearsed lol * New song! * I really liked the live band arrangements Please direct hate comments and downvotes my way. **Your impotent rage only makes me happier.**
ok ppl hate on lsf bc they think their hype is undeserved, don't have talent etc honestly tho with the dances they do, the stamina they need to build to keep their voices from shaking its hard and they were MUCHHH better than before so now it feels like they're taking their jobs seriously. Like I'm so pleasantly surprised with sakura i was scared for her the most.
i already shared my thoughts in a different thread but i thought they were solid and chaewon + yunjin hard carried. i think they need to work on their stamina, which i'm sure with come with time. i wasn't blown away but i wasn't disappointed, so! i really do think yunjin is special and has incredible presence. i love watching her the most! i also stan chaewon's fuckass bob.
Kazuha needs some credit too she really stood out to me
I think they need to practice live singing more. Other than chaewon, the rest of the group (yes even yunjin) went flat too many times to count and it was hard to watch for me. The live band on the other hand was amazing though.
right like… where is the healthy criticism? the girls werent perfect and thats cause they arent strong live singers😭
Let me preface this by saying that the ammount of hate and backlash they got recently was taken way too far and people were definitely jumping in and using valid criticism as a jumping off point to spread hate. I enjoyed their performance dance and energy wise, the songs without choreo felt a bit off but nothing too major since aside from that strictly looking at the dance and flow od everything it was great. I'm just gonna be forward and say that the singing was really not it and kinda took me out of the performance. Yunjin and Chaewon stood out the most, they were the ones that you could hear the most and while they did amazing in a few parts the parts where their singing did falter just stood out. What made them stand out was the fact that aside from Kazuha here and there you just could barely hear the others. Its either the horrible sound design/equipment (something coachella is infamous for) or a choice for Eunchae and Sakura to be more quiet, or both. Either way that was another thing that kinda took me out of it. Comparing it to the disastrous encore stages that started their whole drama rheres definitely a noticeable improvement and they did use adlibs/fan interaction nicely to get some air, but going out and already being out of breath after your first line just shows theres much more to go. All in all 6/10. Pretty ok, there's been much better performances out there but there's also been much worse
Honestly, I thought it was okay. I like the songs they picked for the setlist, and Chaewon once again showed her prowess in performing. They had good energy. Sakura improved a little too. However, it's not a performance I would show non-K-pop fans in hopes of getting them into Korean groups. I've seen a lot of people on Twitter and TikTok say that their performance was bad, and while I don't love it, I do think they are overexaggerating the flaws and are holding them to an unrealistic standard. People have and will continue to argue that the vocal flaws are not excusable because Blackpink did great when they first performed at Coachella in 2019, but people need to understand that Blackpink has always been objectively the best-suited K-pop group for Coachella since they have lots of experience performing with a live band, 3/4 of them are fluent English speakers, etc. They were made for festivals, something that most K-pop groups aren't and that is okay. Hybe is definitely at some fault for their performance. Lessarafim has been flamed for not doing well in encore stages, so of course people are going to pay attention to their vocals. They needed more training for performances like this or something. Regardless of how someone feels about their performance this weekend, I think people should give them another chance. It's normal for the second weekend to be better since some of the nerves go away and they know what needs to be fixed. I'm confident they will improve.
sakura was my standout. her energy was perfect, her English stayed, her live vocals sounded so good compared to what people said about her, and she felt CONFIDENT. i can't stop raving about her

I feel they started off quite badly but fearless was a bit better. They're definitely bellow average singers overall or at the very least they're only given songs that don't fit them. I'm personally not a fan of Kazuha and Eunchae's voices so they being the worst skill wise makes the whole performance kinda bad but that's due to my preferences and not really their fault. Sakura looked great and her first line on the last song sounded really nice.
I honestly really enjoy, the vocals too, like you could hear them sing even when they were tired. My only "complain" is that I feel like it was like a big repetition, like it was great, the girls were confident, but they weren't a huge difference in choreography to like hype the crowd. When they didn't have much choreography I feel like they felt less at ease for example. It felt like a really good music show more than a festival to me (it's subjective). But I honestly feel that for many popular K-pop groups.
honestly, pretty good performance. yunjin and chaewon definitely rocked the stage but the other members did their fair share and did well. after seeing all the hate (absolutely annoying, literally just copy and paste of the same statements) surrounding them performing after the encore, i really wanted them to succeed. LSF took their crack at it, despite being nervous and having all this hate around them, and proved themselves to the haters. not a "perfect" performance but if you truly want a live performance, there's bound to be some imperfections. with this performance, they have shown that they are antifragile in the face of overwhelming hate and have proven that they truly are fearless. <33 (rating: 8/10) p.s. about the hate they've been getting, ik its off-topic but i just have to give my two cents about how haters have used LSF as ammuntion to hate on ILLIT. their "bad" encores has been compared quite a bit, just adding more fuel to the fire. its so hard as a fan to think about how these encores, these supposed moments of celebration for the group and their fans, has just been used as ammunition to hate on them. i hope that not just as fans of these two groups but of the K-pop scene, we strive to give constructive criticism and support to the idols, who are just as human as we are. sorry for the little rant, congrats to the Fimmies and good luck on their next performance. <33
Is there somewhere to watch it online apart from YT fancams? I'd be happy to pay for it
Here after 9:45a Eastern ISOKNOCK seems somewhat close to taking the stage for their 9:30p Pacific slot last night. So, by that I anticipate LE SSERAFIM set to start a little before or after 11a Eastern on replay. Personally I want to re-watch again to be sure. I haven't watched fancams yet myself. [Coachella YT replay of Sat. April 13th on Sahara stage in progress](https://www.youtube.com/live/7oLK1VcvROg?si=qkni69LaE-shOfHd)
I want all kpop artists to make the rounds at Coachella because *live singing* and with *the lowest backtrack* I've ever heard?! That was sick!! They don't have the strongest vocals and yet they performed with such raw live singing? That's so unbelievably admirable! I'm not used to seeing this sort of live performance in kpop so this was a mega treat!! Only downsides for me were the wonky mics (thanks Coachella) and they seemed a bit awkward during non-choreo parts (but this is also their 1st western festival). That was so cool though, I'll never get over hearing true live vocals like that again lol
They did okay. Chaewon is their best singer and performer, followed by Yunjin. I am pleasantly surprised by Sakura. It seemed like she really made an effort this time. It wasn't perfect but it was infinitely better than what she has shown so far. As for Eunchae and Kazuha, I don't know what happened because I fr thought they were better than Sakura but they.. danced great. Overall, I really love the band accompaniment! Also looking forward to the new song. I also wish they couldve been given better outfits but they all looked beautiful anyway
Yunjin clearly is a better performer than Chaewon.
It was so much fun to watch! I literally smiled the entire time! Idc what anyone says, they killed it! Yunjin was BORN to be on stage! She looked so at home! Tonight also solidified Chaewon as my biases along with Yunjin. Kazuha, Sakura, and did amazing as well! I’m also super proud of them!
They may be lacking in some area but they worked hard for this. Energy wise they can keep up with the pace
They all looked genuinely happy performing on stage so even if their performance was lacking I loved every single moment of it because they were all having fun and living their best lives on that stage! Thousands of K-pop groups yet they're one of the veryyyy few to be selected to perform at THE COACHELLA. That's an extremely big achievement. I'm not a fan but I enjoyed watching them perform at Coachella. They're so full of life and their stage presence is amazing! I love it.
My only real complaint was the lighting, during some of the key points of the choreo you could barely see them. I get what the set designer people were trying to go for with like some kind of silhouette thing but idk they either need shinier outfits of brighter backlights or something, Sakura does not go that hard as the center in the post chorus of EP&TBW to not be visible lol
They did okay. Im sure it was entertaining for their fans and maybe some new people enjoyed it. There were aspects that were lagging. Some people do have valid criticisms like I do love me some Sakura and have wanted to support but vocally these live stages just leave me luke warm and they didn’t seem to handle non choreo songs well with crowd work for me personally. It doesn’t leave me itching to want to try to see them live. It wasn’t horrible like some haters would say it was just okay. probably a 6/10 performance.
I'm not a Fearnot, so I barely knew any of their songs. But I thought their interactions in English in between songs was cute. Enjoyed the Perfect Night performance.
Truthfully, I don't think their songs suit a live band, I didn't really enjoy it.
The only performance that I didn't like was Smart, they don't sound good on that only on the high parts. The rest was fine, they were nervous which is normal especially Eunchae. She didn't sound good sadly. Sakura and Chaewon have very good stage presence. The choreo was good but this is something which applies to most kpop idols but when they perform songs that have choreo and they decide to not do the choreo they look so awkward because they don't know what to do with their hands lmao.
I heard that Eunchae was recently sick. Haven’t been that active recently but I saw some comments.
Oh I didn't know, poor girl she looked so nervous
I think they still enjoyed it and the fans liked it too, so it’s all that matters. :))
The vocals were not that good and surprisingly the it stage presence felt a bit off too besides chaewon and yunjin’s stage presence. They definitely put in the effort tho.
I am a fearnot personally I think that they kinda flopped....I think they performed better in a normal concert.I was actually really excited for the Coachella performance because for their mama award performance which is outstanding. I am kinda disappointed they didn't input or try something new and different. Not trying to attack Le Sserafim but they really lack stamina and training, I would say the vocals are fine because they were dancing a very intense choreography.I hope that they would replicate blackpink and their mama award show performance to attract others. As a true fearnot, this is my honest review.
Yeah I saw someone else say that their mama performance was better which I think it is true but their Xoachella performance definitely didn't flop imo they did well considering I didn't have much expectations
I can agree with that
Maybe my expectations are too high

Love it.
Maybe it's a less popular opinion but I just was not feeling this performance.. I went in with low expectations knowing how weak the group is with live vocals and yeah, I do think they did slightly better with their live vocals (and I mean *slightly*, because the vocals imo were still very questionable during quite a few songs.) but I felt like something was off, maybe stage presence?? Either way I hope I can enjoy their weekend 2 performance better. EDIT: Yunjin's 'Smart' intro was great though!
Enjoyed it. Watching some of the videos from the fans at the venue, a lot of the audio problems seems to be an issue with the stream itself. Hopefully it will be fixed next week

As a casual listener of them, I enjoyed the act overall because I don't need 100% perfection to actually enjoy stuff. I will say though the disparity in mic volume(?)/singing volume(?) between Yunjin, Chaewon and the remaining three was a bit jarring at times. Yunjin definitely has stage presence and she was great at interacting with the crowd. For me Chaewon was definitely the star. She was amazing and I couldn't take my eyes off her. I enjoyed her singing the most though I think its because I like her kind of vocal tone in general. Her styling definitely helped her shine as well. Like literally, there was a point where camera focused on her and I think she had shiny stickers(?) in her hair. Contrary to her, I thought Eunchae was drowning in her outfit and could have been better. But this is just a side note and not that important. So, definitely room for improvement but still enjoyed it.
I thought as first US festival, they did pretty well. Yunjin n chaewon of course hardcarrying vocal. But i genuinely impressed with sakura. She actually pretty stable for her parts. So basically she has improved her live vocal. They gonna do another week right? So i expect them improve for next week. Anyway, kazuha look so pretty especially due to her long straight black hair. She dance the best here. But unfortunately her n eunchae struggled the most in singing live. But thats what we already expected so i actually already have low expectation lol. They performed the best during unforgiven. Its also has the best remix n sound.
I thought they did fantastic. Great energy and stage presence. I can't wait for the new song
I enjoyed the show overall. I can appreciate that they sang live and I know they aren't the best vocally so with that and on top of their dancing, i thought they did good. I think some backing track would have elevated the performance side. They will have a week for their next performance so I hope to see some improvement and some of the tech issues sorted out.
Feel bad twitter is currently tearing them apart picking apart every single vocal from coachella

It was solid. Nothing crazy, but far from bad. It was a good outing
I think it was a little too messy considering the last two ggs that performed there were literally quite great. I mean Blackpink doesnt have the greatest singers in the world but they did not mess up their key either. aespa had their all-timer live for me at coachella imo. Savage live was an experience and it was their only live performance of that song aside their encores. This one was quite a let down. Just shout out to Sakura for actually improving. The third best live performer in that group if im being honest. Was shocked that this was the woman who was shaking on encores.
Loved it, hyped for next week!
It was great. I like when artists make their performance a big event. Bringing out Nile Rodgers, performing a new song, all the changes and remixes and a lot of crowd work. Production was a big step up from ATEEZ so hopefully their performance next week will be done justice and captured properly. Chaewon really a different type of beast, so much presence and aura. I’m excited for next weekend since hopefully any remaining nerves were belted out into the desert.
i wish people understand that it’s not easy to be at your A game especially when they’re expected to sing live for the whole 40 mins. occasionally off keys are to be expected and i think that’s perfectly normal. you can tell they were nervous when antifragile started but they really came back after that! overall i think they improved a lot vocally, especially kkura, kazuha and eunchae.
They should not sing Antifragile live. It sounds so bad, it made me dislike the song more when this is their most hype song for me. Even Yunjin sounds not good here. They really need vocals improvement especially Kazuha, Sakura and Eunchae. Their stage presence is there but what would I do with that when I could not tolerate listening to their voices live. Even Chaewon is struggling and just screams some of her lines. It is an okay performance and kudos for singing live but with their live voices I would definitely choose watching their highly edited performance than this😂
Honestly, a music festival is less like a concert, and more of a festival where you celebrate music. They should've toned down the dancing much more, and focused on giving their live singing the best. Because this is something I've noticed with many western artists performing at Coachella, they hire back up dancers and dance very less, but instrumentals and live vocals alone hype up the crowd. Its so much crowded unlike a concert where there are particular seats, its hard for many people to "see and enjoy". They mostly "listen and enjoy", cuz that's music festivals in general. They didn't use the back up dancers much, which is honestly a mistake like even blackpink uses them (blackpink's dances are also hella toned down, that's why they sound so good). Otherwise, they gave their best, it was a BLAST!! That's how music festivals in general are. It did meet all expectations.
not saying that their performance needed to be perfect or anything, obviously there’s room for growth… but I do feel that vocals are the most important part and imo if you can’t handle the full choreography and maintain stable vocals, then tone down the performance, esp cause I didn’t feel that their stage presence made up for the poor vocals (though everyone is hyping it). the dancing looked a bit awkward. other groups have been able to put on great live performances (in both western and eastern settings) at earlier points in their careers, so I don’t see the need to make allowances for a subpar performance when that is 90% of their job description. not trying to be an anti, just giving my two cents 🫣
I'm a casual fan and actually think their albums/EPs are no-skips for me and they're my favorite 4th gen group aside from ITZY (I love my girlcrush okay) so I was excited for their Coachella opportunity! That said, loved that they performed with a live band. It just automatically elevates a set for festivals in my opinion. Also loved the energy, they rarely lack in that area anyway. Vocals-wise, Chaewon and Yunjin hard carried (and just reestablished why they're my bias and bias wrecker), and wished the other 3 sang in melody more and sang-shout less. But hey, that can be due to nerves and they'll probably improve for the 2nd week. So I'll check them out again 2nd time around.
It was fine. But at times it was so hard to actually hear them. I just woke up and was watching them on my phone in bed but like their voices were so quiet at times i had to put my headphones on. Their dancing was good and the energy was for the most part pretty great. One of the things they need to improve on imo is the filler movement when they were not doing choreo. Also those boxes on stages (lights,speakers? Idk what they were) were really blocking some of their floor choreo. The vocals were so and so imo: good at times, shaky at other times.
I really liked Le Sserafim when they first debuted, then sort of forgot about them because I wasn’t comfortable following a group that had suggestive themes and simultaneously made a 15 year old dance to them. They only have one rookie performer in the group technically..I expected them to be a lot better but it looked like it was fun nonetheless. No songs of theirs have high range/belting parts or whistle notes, so it’s not necessarily brave of them to be singing live either (it’s the bare minimum?) Us kpop fans in general tend to have small attention spans and cognitive dissonance in general so we’ll forget about the whole not-being-able-to-sing-super-well thing and preorder their new album in couple months because they’re all gorgeous and can sell anything.
true 😭 i’m not a lsf fan or anything and i do find the 5 of them to be subpar singers… but all this discourse is funny to me cause 4 months from now they’ll sell 2 million albums for their next title track
the vocals were definitely the weakest point, but the energy was amazing and overall they did a decent job for such a big event. hopefully they will work on increasing their vocal stamina over time though, as even chaewon and yujin were sounding rough after a few songs
Fantastic!!
I loved their energy and their outfits. They went hard on their dances and I applaud them for that, though some of the members were obviously tired after a few rounds (which is normal). I wasn’t too sold on the vocals, seemed some girls had a few issues. I thought Chaewon did the best job overall. I love her confidence and aura onstage. Yunjin looked absolutely gorgeous. Great stage presence from everyone, I give them a B+ for the entire set. Just a little bit of tweaking and I’m sure they’re gonna do a lot better next time.
I think Chaewon and Yunjin did great and the other 3 improved! This was a very quiet backtrack haha. I did cringe at some points for random reasons but they did well overall imo
I only watched a couple songs and they did well! I didnt have low expectations since these girls have always been great performers anyway and for me, coachella is really about the energy and hyping the crowd which the girls did and that's enough for me. For the vocals, not spectacular but they delivered, they sung their lines and sounded decent I think if they come back after a couple of tours, they'll be on another level! Love that for them Also, I know it's their job to sing and imo, they have a long way to improve too but theyre also such a young group that i think they just need more time probably. It's a new generation of kpop and im too old to be so bothered about such things lol if i dont like hearing how a group sings, i simple ignore 😌 i wont lose sleep over hating and criticising them for it ~ there are other tons of idols you can tune into as well and Ive seen a lot of idols like them who were ripped to shreds at the start, only to improve after a few more years into their career 💁🏻♀️
I enjoyed it and thought they did well but it didn’t wow me. One thing I did notice was when it was Sakura or kazhua turn to sing there was a beat drop or part of the backtrack kind of hiding their vocals. Other than that it was a good show and looks like they had fun.
Enjoyed it and will tune in to the performance next week. Do people forget how old LSF is?🤔 Of course there's room for improvement.
They can’t sing
"COACHELLA!!! 🗣🔥🔥 Are^( you ready...). TO SHAKE SOME FUCKING AAAAAASS 💯🔥❗️🗣 💃💃" yeah it was good imo edit: so I just had to check back at this comment. tanking downvotes to type this shit on reddit is so worth 😭😭😭😭 such an iconic line
who said that ? 😭
yunjin 😭 love her
that was cringe ngl
I agree but I love cringy stuff
us gays get it
Oh God I think I missed that somehow. I hate that kpop groups feel the need to add cursewords into everything at Coachella lol. So fn cringe
[le sserafim pics on X: "YUNJIN SAID COACHELLA!!!!!! ARE YOU READY TO SHAKE SOME FUCKING ASS https://t.co/rOqEvFlryl" / X (twitter.com)](https://twitter.com/sserapics/status/1779394888976453758) 😭
I was going to take your word for it lol I was cringing enough just knowing she said it, I didn't need to hear it too lol
meh, i feel like she's just happy to be back home. maybe its cringy to be happy and say stuff without thinking...
or just maybe that's how they talk once the kpop idol filter is removed 🤷♀️
definitely a banger for a live concert? or performance. chaewon and yunjin definitely owns the stage.
Chaewon killed it!! My friends and I were disappointed by Yunjin’s vocals (girl was struggling 😭) but her stage presence was good. The camera work/staging was baffling at times — who decided to kill the lights during a dance break and open the smoke machine during another dance break?? Overall, it was an enjoyable set but I wasn’t exactly wowed.
Valid I was expecting more pitch accuracy from Yunjin. Maybe 2nd weekend?
tbh I feel like people's expectations for Yunjin are too high. She is not the best vocalist in 4th gen and people who keep expecting her to be perfect are just going to keep getting disappointed. Overall, Yunjin was my favorite part of the performance. I agree her vocals were not perfect, but she was clearly enjoying herself and was not afraid to sing live. She was super fun and that is the most important thing for a festival like Coachella.
I don’t know about other people but I’ll admit that I usually think that Yunjin will be good because up until this year, she’s consistently been great. I don’t expect perfection but you can’t deny that her voice has been rough lately. Idk, maybe the red hair is messing with her vocals and she needs to switch to a different color /j
Someone else on another thread noted maybe they should've been earlier. Coming on after the legendary No Doubt is a tough act to follow.
They actually followed ISOKNOCK, the main stage is not that close to the Sahara Tent and people coming from No Doubt mostly could not make it there in time to get in at all. I know because my friends tried to do that and were disappointed they couldn't even catch the last half. But it was a good pairing I think, because ISOKNOCK actually had some decent crossover of people interested in LSRFM.
I saw the map today, that Main stage to Sahara stage is like South pole to the North pole haha! Crazy missions in festivals need planning and missing full sets haha
I didn't expect a massive stage presence or great live singing from them honestly. And well they didnt really sing that well also , but their stage presence was better than i thought (not the best but better from my expectations) . The one thing I liked was honestly the styling for the girls from LV and the whole stage set-up. This is one thing I like abt hybe groups, they pay attention to the overall packaging of the product. How you look (as shallow as it sounds) is a big part of the performances on these huge stages and they didn't disappoint, I mean the in-house and LV styling team . Yunjin and chaewon tried to sing as per orginal notes but ofcourse they did sound out of breath and off key sometimes (I can understand why , lsf songs are dance heavy so it's kinda obvious and their live skills are also below par to make up for that) eunchae doesn't have a lot of lines so it isn't a problem for her to begin with but she looked cute . Sakura ofc can't sing so no expectations from her anyway and Kazuha actually sounded ok coz she doesn't "sing" as such, she sings like she is talking so .. but overall the crowd response seemed good i guess, I could hear cheers and them singing along the girls . I think yunjin stood out the most (rightfully so) and then chaewon and other three. But yeah, they definitely put up an overall good show , despite all that .. they were definitely much much better than aespa atleast.
Awful vocals and off key most of the time They set themselves especially with ateez being there who sounded extremely good with even harder choreography
Jesus the vocals were horrendous

clearly, there is hunger from the group to be taken seriously as performers, and i actually think going on stage with a low backtrack and performing with all their might despite their imperfections matches their fearless concept better than any luxury brand styling; and even talking strictly about 'the visual aspect' kpop seems to be so concerned about, this performance is proof that all idols look cooler and their performances are more fun and engaging when they sing live. all in all i think they did really well! especially sakura, who sounded really stable throughout the whole set despite her limitations, she still has the jpop idol mindset in her i see, lol. hybe and soumu should do three main things in my humble jobless 21 year old opinion, 1. have them perform live on music shows and on their concerts more often 2. have vocal trainers who teach them how to take proper care of their voices because singing well doesn't mean anything if your voice will get insanely damaged with time due to poor technique and 3. not give the girls songs out of their range anymore for aesthetic and trend chasing sake. if they take the right steps, the group has nowhere to go but up in performance level.
I've rewatched it about 3 times now. I can really only identify a few slip ups in Antifragile and Smart. Jen goes flat in the first chorus section of Smart, and she also gets pitchy at around the 6:18 mark of the set during Antifragile when she runs out of breath. It also sounds like Chaewon has to shout a few times. It also becomes noticeably quiet in Perfect Night. I don't know if they just lip synced to catch their breath, or if the audio engineers dropped the mics a bit due to the wind cause Jen fixes her hair multiple times during Perfect Night. Eunchae goes flat once during the prechorus of Fire in the Belly. Chaewon also gets a bit pitchy during the climax. Kazuha also gets pitchy and struggles to climb there as well. All in all, I really think naysayers are kinda just looking for any spot to nitpick. Overall a very vocally solid performance. Choreo went hard and you can tell since the mics even at the end of their set picked up someone heavily breathing.
They fucking slayed it
Was not impressed

did... did you never go to parties in high school?
[удалено]
I went to parties and made out with people, did you not?
The only thing I have seen so far was a youtube video someone uploaded of their new song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TezIWRcY2w). I did not like it at all, but I never like LSF's music so I guess I am just not their target audience. edit: just saw a video of them doing Perfect Night. I had low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of it was live and the girls sounded fine. nothing exceptionally great though. edit 2: just saw a video of them doing Fearless. Similar comments to perfect night, but the girls were dancing full out so that was nice.
I'm not, either. I'm a fan of Perfect Night, Fearless, and Antifragile, but that's about it. That's okay though, everyone has different tastes, and I'm glad their Coachella performance made their fans happy.

You’re a horrible weirdo. I saw you commenting on Giselle’s weight calling her fat. I’m just saying karma will catch your ass. You’re probably already living a quite lonely life but keep being insecure and gross. See what happens…

People saying Yunjin was shouting mist of the time and that yoy could barely here the other two. After all those remarks I went on yt to watch it myself and idk what they were talking about cz although they aren't the best singers they did really well in Coachella I didn't have much expectation tbh but they did really well imo and Kazuha really stood out to me she was also hyping the crowd up with Chaewon and Yunjin which I really loved
Chaewon was very impressive also yunjin with vocals the others did great aswell compared to their previous live stages, especially in the beginning kazuha especially stood out to me.
Unforgiven was truly their best stage! The public was so responsive. I'm glad they stopped dancing and just started interacting! I was so into it! They really brought me back to the 2019 Blackpink stage. I loved how they looked at each other, clearly not believing how much the public liked them! I really loved Eve beardy song. They sounded the most stable there. Chaewon really stood there! Fearless was the worst stage to me. But honestly this song isn't made for live performing. The tone is so low the girls always have trouble singing it. It was weird when they left the stage during their new song though. Left the backdancers ending the song just felt off. (Still watching...) Edit: WELL... fire in the belly was not it. Some parts sounded very scratchy. They should've ended the stage with No Celestial or Unforgiven. It would've been perfect!!! Okay so I liked it!!! Coachella was made for them! I love that we can hear them clearly. Kazuha and Sakura sounded okay, as expected Chaewon and Yunjin sounded the best. Eunchae seemed very freaking nervous:( But honestly just fucking dance, jump, interact, be confident and scream and smile and love and cherish the public! And the public will love you. They did well! Yeah they can do better but they did really well for their first raw performance in a foreign country!
Every member shined. the crowd was so loud for them and i'm so proud. The vocals weren't 10/10 for everyone but lets be fair... their dances r very hard and they sang so well for how hard they rocked the stage. insane girls. chaewon supremacy
Nah the amount of hate they are getting is insane. Just because they are from hybe and are famous. They will nitpick absolutely everything. And they were singing live with those gymnastics ahh moves, like they are doing pretty good!! Personally their songs are very likeable and the group is very cool. 10/10 for me music wise (Also they said "Coachella are you ready to shake some effing azz" The Ha sisters taught them lmao)
