One disgruntled fan aired their grievances, stating, "Modern idols might be inclined to embark on world tours swiftly, but that shouldn't entail a 2-hour and 30-minute concert with 50% talk and 50% pre-recorded performances."

Adding to the dissatisfaction was the absence of individual or cover stages, a customary highlight in idol concerts. This omission left some attendees regretful, missing out on the unique showcases that usually pepper such performances.

In contrast, a faction of fans came to the group's defense, arguing that the lip-syncing instance was intended as a brief reprieve amidst an otherwise live performance-heavy show. They emphasized that the majority of the concert featured live singing, downplaying the significance of the lip-synced segment.

In the digital age, the concert's controversy transcended the physical confines of the venue, finding a new arena in the vast expanse of the online community.

Netizens' comments:

  • "not le sserafim's fault that they're loved! also they didn't lipsync. there is faint backtrack but live vocals on top and VERY easy to hear when they're singing. just watch the rest of the concert clips lmao"

  • "Lesserafim used Ar live every time for fool their fans.. They even record their breathing sounds as if they were performing live, but they're not even able to act like they're not lipsyncing..."
