Bang Si Hyuk, the chairman of HYBE and the executive producer of LE SSERAFIM, was reported to have shown emotion during the group's inaugural world tour concert in Incheon. The concert, named 'EASY CRAZY HOT', took place on April 19th and 20th at Inspire Arena in Unseo-dong, Incheon.
According to audience members, Bang was visibly moved during the members' closing speeches, particularly touched by Huh Yunjin's heartfelt words. Some fans even speculated that he might have shed tears.
During the final show, the group took a moment to reflect on their journey, with Huh Yunjin delivering a deeply emotional message. She recalled the challenges of the past year, sharing, “It’s been two years since our last tour. So much has happened in between. Last year, I remember crying in a hotel room on the phone with a company staff member, asking, ‘What should we do now?’ ‘Can we even see the road ahead?’ ‘What’s real and what’s not?’”
She expressed, “At that time, we couldn’t see beyond the present moment. But we had no option but to keep pushing forward. The past year has been a whirlwind of emotions. It was tough, but quitting seemed unjust. Many people were rooting for us—how could I even think of giving up?”
Bang Si Hyuk, who has been closely involved with LE SSERAFIM since their debut, gained attention last year due to a conflict with ADOR’s Min Hee Jin, which affected several HYBE artists, including LE SSERAFIM. Given the challenges faced by the group and their successful return to the stage, fans understood why the seasoned producer was moved to tears.
As LE SSERAFIM kicks off their inaugural world tour, this moment was a poignant reminder of the struggles they have encountered and the progress they have made.
