Underwhelming Response
However, amidst the fervor, a sizable portion of fans expressed disappointment, deeming the track "underwhelming" for LE SSERAFIM's standards.
Here are the sentiments expressed by netizens on the online platform Reddit regarding the track "EASY".
"MV finished and I felt like "that's it?" idk. The song is just very one-note for a title track. Video is pretty though."
"I'm unsure about this. While I respect LSF's minimalist concept, I think there's a way to keep that clean vibe while making the songs more musically engaging, like Fearless and Impurities. "
"Don't know how to feel about the song, I liked the first verses but didn't feel anything past the first chorus. Almost forgot the song was playing.
"After watching the MV now, It feels a bit better, the sets are cool, Yunjin is incredible and the choreo looks fine. Still don't know if it matches the energy of the song."
"Song is hella boring ! It lacks flavor like something is missing, it sounds more like b side than title track plus the dance and outfits ain't memorable either"
"Not a fan of the auto tune and the singing was very like mumbly Wouldn't mind it as a b-side but I was expecting smt more hype from a title track ):"
"the beat is hot but wayyyy too much modification on their voices. none of their vocals in this resemble them in their previous songs and live performances."
Criticism centered around the perceived lack of impact expected from a title track, with complaints about excessive autotune and production overshadowing the members' natural vocal abilities.
