3. LE SSERAFIM

LE SSERAFIM is the third most talked about the girl group. These fourth-generation artists, whose group name is an anagram for “I’m fearless” defied the odds by persevering as a quintet, from a sextet, despite all the issues surrounding their debut and ex-member, Kim Garam. Debuting with the “Fearless” album, the girls became the first KPOP girl group to achieve 300,000 sales of a debut album during the first tracking week. Their comeback album, “ANTIFRAGILE” released on October 17th, and their performances at TFMA 2022 and KCON Japan 2022 are currently what the girls have in store for their fans and the world.
