Bang Si Hyuk, chairman of HYBE and executive producer of LE SSERAFIM, was reportedly seen getting emotional during the group’s first world tour concert in Incheon. The concert, titled 'EASY CRAZY HOT', was held on April 19th and 20th at Inspire Arena in Unseo-dong, Incheon.
Audience members shared online accounts that Bang appeared visibly moved during the members’ closing remarks—especially during Huh Yunjin’s heartfelt speech. Some fans even speculated that he may have been shedding tears.
On the final night, the group took time to reflect on their journey, with Huh Yunjin offering a particularly raw and emotional message. Recalling the past year, she said, “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 continued, “At the time, we couldn’t see even a step ahead. But we had no choice but to keep moving forward. This past year has been a rollercoaster of emotions. It was tough, but giving up felt unfair. So many people were supporting us—how could I possibly give up?”
Bang Si Hyuk, who has worked closely with LE SSERAFIM since their debut, found himself in the public spotlight last year due to his conflict with ADOR’s Min Hee Jin—an episode that cast a shadow over several HYBE artists, including LE SSERAFIM. Given the group’s challenges and their triumphant return to the stage, fans say it’s understandable that the veteran producer was overcome with emotion.
As LE SSERAFIM embarks on their first world tour, the moment served as a poignant reminder of the hardships they’ve faced—and how far they’ve come.
