LE SSERAFIM‘s Yunjin recently replied to a fan asking for a playlist recommendation on October 6, 2024. She recommended the song “Gravity” by FIFTY FIFTY.
The song is part of the new lineup of girls’ debut album. While they have been receiving huge support from Korean audiences, international audiences are firmly on the side of “3jeong,” the past members of FIFTY FIFTY who left after a feud and mistreatment allegations against the company. International netizens have condemned Yunjin, expressing their disappointment in her.

On the other hand, others have spoken out in support for Yunjin, claiming that she was not obliged to be aware of every item on the internet.

Korean netizens have also jumped in, condemning international audiences for their critique of Yunjin.
- Just what goes on in i-Roaches brains for them to be this delusional?
- i-Roaches have no use in K-Pop.
- Just because they are boycotting something, does it mean we have to? I’m speechless. Just work hard at cheering 3jeong on. We’re not going to.
- Do i-Roaches have rocks for brains?
- They’re the ones brainwashed by false information, these dumb i-Roaches.
- Supporting 3jeong? Why?
- I wonder why there’s no normal ones amongst i-Roaches…
- Why are all i-Roaches like that…
In response to the heat, the fan who had asked Yunjin the original question has since deleted the post.
