LE SSERAFIM, a five-member K-pop girl group consisting of Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, and Hong Eunchae, is generating buzz with their recent activities. The group released their second single album, "Made My Night," on September 11th, marking a significant moment in their ongoing global expansion. Their current momentum is driven by new music, strategic collaborations, and appearances at major international festivals.
The group, which debuted in May 2022 with "FEARLESS," is now in its fifth year. Their latest single, "Made My Night," features two tracks, with the title song's music video co-produced with Blizzard Entertainment's Overwatch, depicting heroes D.Va and D.Mon rescuing the members. Member Sakura, born in 1998 in Kagoshima, Japan, previously debuted with HKT48 and IZ*ONE before joining LE SSERAFIM in 2022, known for her clear vocals and dedicated practice. Kazuha, a former ballet major, is recognized for her clean visuals and improved vocal skills. The group also contributed 50 million won for forest fire recovery in 2025 and saw their song "ICONIC BY MISTAKE" chart on the US Billboard 'Hot 100' for eight consecutive weeks.
Local bloggers express appreciation for the members' distinct qualities, such as Sakura's intense practice regimen and Kazuha's natural beauty, which is noted to make any photo look like it belongs on Pinterest. The group's collaboration with Overwatch and their upcoming global tour dates, including performances at BlizzCon and the 'PUREFLOW' tour in LA, are highlighted as key indicators of their expanding international presence. The media also observed a shift in their performance style for "Made My Night," moving from powerful synchronized choreography to a more relaxed, rhythmic approach.
