LE SSERAFIM have proven, once again, that they are mean-spirited, nasty girls.

Yet, netizens defended them by explaining that the group was just following a TikTok trend and like most groups, the videos were probably filmed in advanced and scheduled.

Group 7 (which Le Sserafim followed) is just a current random TikTok trend, sort of like 67 trend 2.0, this is why literacy is needed https://t.co/6TsKYywX38 pic.twitter.com/YUhGKwlUNz
