LE SSERAFIM’s Chart Performance With “CRAZY” Fails To Impress

LE SSERAFIM‘s latest release, “CRAZY,” is struggling to maintain strong chart positions despite a slight increase in the number of listeners.

According to a recent post on a popular online community, the group’s performance on music charts has been lackluster, with rankings consistently dropping despite the steady growth in unique listeners on platforms like MelOn.

The post pointed out that the third week after release is typically when a song reaches its peak. However, for “CRAZY,” the song’s ranking has been steadily falling, even as unique listener numbers continue to rise. This has led some to speculate that the song might not see a significant boost in the coming weeks.

The chart tracking the song’s unique listeners shows a steep drop in ranking on August 31, followed by fluctuating numbers but no strong upward trend.

Fans and netizens have offered various explanations for the song’s underperformance. Some suggest that the issue lies not in the group’s image or likeability but in the song itself. Several commenters believe that if the song had been stronger, it would have naturally climbed the charts. Others have criticized the group’s performances, noting that their vocal limitations and overly simplified choreography make their stages less engaging.

• “Wow, it really seems like the crazies are all over this. I feel so bad for them, honestly.”
• “Every time a post like this comes up, there are always people trying to justify it by saying, ‘Other girl groups have it worse…’ That’s exactly the problem. Do they not realize there’s something wrong here? It’s mind blowing.”
• “Isn’t the issue here more about the song rather than their likability? If the song was good, it would’ve done better.”
• “The vocal limitations are pretty clear, so they’re restricted in the types of songs they can handle. In the end, they have to rely on their performance, but it feels like they’ve toned it down too much — maybe to cater to [TikTok] challenges — and it’s not that fun to watch.”
• “Honestly, aside from the lyrics, I like the beat, so I thought their ranking would go up when they promoted on music shows. But nope.”
• “LE SSERAFIM, hwaiting!”
• “It’s just that the song isn’t good. If the song were good, it would have done well on its own without any need for promotions, like with ‘Perfect Night.’”

Despite some fans remaining hopeful and continuing to support the group, many seem to believe that without a better song, LE SSERAFIM may not achieve the chart success expected for an artist of their stature.
