Even off-stage, fans couldn’t help but keep all eyes on them as LE SSERAFIM and NewJeans were seated beside each other.
While the two groups have met, it hasn’t often been in front of the public eye, so netizens were eager to see the combination of insane visuals and talents of the groups.

Fans of the groups were excited to see that the groups seemed to be good friends, and LE SSERAFIM had previously revealed that Yunjin trained with the NewJeans members before her debut.
The interactions between the groups quickly went viral during and after the ceremony, as there were many memorable moments between them.
As the groups were sitting down, fans immediately noticed LE SSERAFIM’s and NewJeans’ friendly interactions.

And when LE SSERAFIM Sakura‘s “motherly” instincts kicked in as she hilariously attempted to shield Eunchae and Hanni‘s eyes from Jay Park‘s ab-baring, twerking-filled performance of “Mommae.”

Fans also noticed one adorable detail in the background of a LE SSERAFIM-focused video.
As LE SSERAFIM posed for the camera, NewJeans’ Hanni mimicked their pose to join the group in the video. Netizens found the moment so adorable they nicknamed LE SSERAFIM and Pham Hanni, “LE SSERAPHAM.”
