LE SSERAFIM recently took home a trophy on M!Countdown. The win was an achievement for the girls, but it also meant that they had to participate in the live encore. Many groups dread the encore stage for music shows as it is done without any backing track. Netizens often use this as a way to gauge if groups have singing chops or not.
The girls sang their new hit song “Easy.” The song proved to be difficult as a few members failed to impress with their singing skills. A clip of the encore went viral with over 2.7 million views.
