Amidst the ongoing feud between HYBE and ADOR’s CEO Min Hee Jin, multiple HYBE groups have been subjected to public scrutiny and criticism. LE SSERAFIM is no exception.
Recently, a netizen’s re-analysis of LE SSERAFIM’s music video for “Burn the Bridge” has gained significant attention in online spaces after it made claims that the video contains motifs related to Japanese “propaganda.”
This analysis’s talking points included the opening scene of the video, which showed a pool of blood on a white floor with Japanese narration in the background. The imagery, as the OP (original poster) claimed, resembles the Japanese flag very closely.
The video’s ending scene was also called to attention. The video concludes with a clip of Sakura looking up at the sky while she is submerged in water. The claims state that the image resembles the shape of Dokdo Island, a disputed territory between Japan and South Korea.
