Some compared the concept to Red Velvet‘s well-known signature quirky style but argued that LE SSERAFIM’s attempt missed the mark, leading to a confusing and unappealing outcome.

Others described the images as having a “Cartoon Network” vibe. They were criticized for incorporating too many elements in an attempt to appear trendy, resulting in a jarring mix of styles that failed to resonate with the audience.

  • “I get what they were going for, but the overall aesthetic is a complete mess, making it feel like a total failure.”
  • “It seems like they were aiming for something similar to Red Velvet, but it ended up being a failed version of that.”
  • “Is Huh Se Ryeon the director?”
  • “They just have this Cartoon Network vibe — trying way too hard to be hip by throwing in all sorts of confusing elements without any coherent flow, and then wrapping it up with some pretentious statement to make it seem intentional.”
  • “I don’t even know how to describe this; it’s gone beyond just being confusing…”
  • “They just can’t let go of that sacred concept, can they? Even as someone who’s not Christian, I found it off-putting. Or, they should have just gone with their usual barely-there outfits that cater to the CEO’s tastes. Now that the public’s reaction is bad, they’re covering their faces and dressing them less provocatively—it’s ridiculous”
