LE SSERAFIM’s Gayo Daejeon Spectacle: A Cinematic Masterpiece with a Drag Queen Twist! 🎬👑💘
Hello Korea Fam! As an emotional film critic, there are few things that stir my soul quite like a truly spectacular performance, one that transcends mere music and becomes a living, breathing piece of art. And let me tell you, what unfolded at the 2025 SBS Gayo Daejeon with **LE SSERAFIM** was nothing short of a cinematic triumph! 🍿 From the moment the lights dimmed, we knew we were in for an unforgettable narrative, a profound journey into their world.
The stage was set not just for a performance, but for a storytelling session. LE SSERAFIM – comprised of Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, and Hong Eunchae – proved why they are hailed as the ‘strongest 4th generation girl group.’ The LED screens beautifully chronicled their incredible journey, displaying the logos from their debut album ‘FEARLESS’ all the way to their latest single, ‘SPAGHETTI.’ But the true dramatic climax arrived as the ‘SPAGHETTI’ logo morphed into the powerful theme of the night: ‘Born This Way.’ It was a symbolic declaration, setting the stage for an authentic, unapologetic showcase of who they are. 🥺

The performance itself was a carefully crafted scene, a dynamic tableau. With a brilliant ensemble of dancers, the girls utilized magazines adorned with their own striking photos, integrating them into their choreography. The synchronized folding and unfolding of these magazines, timed perfectly with the beat, delivered a palpable sense of thrilling satisfaction – it was like watching a story unfold page by page! Then, the energy surged even higher as they dove into ‘SPAGHETTI (Member ver.)’, pulling us deeper into their vibrant universe. Their stage presence was phenomenal, each member embodying their role with intense dedication.

But the true showstopper, the moment that made me gasp and cheer like I was watching the most epic climax of a K-Drama, was the brand-new dance break. Oh, Global K-Fans, it was breathtaking! As the iconic ‘EAT IT UP’ killing part hit, a magnificent **Drag Queen** made an appearance, exploding onto the stage with an absolutely electrifying energy. This wasn’t just a dance move; it was a powerful statement, a bold theatrical flourish that pushed boundaries and celebrated self-expression. It truly felt like a pivotal character entrance in an unforgettable film! 🎭💘

Hannah’s Take: The integration of a drag queen into a mainstream K-Pop performance isn’t just a spectacle; it’s a powerful narrative choice. It challenges perceptions and adds layers of meaning to the ‘Born This Way’ theme, transforming a music stage into a platform for audacious, inclusive storytelling. This kind of brave artistic direction is what makes a performance truly unforgettable and resonant. 📽️
Meanwhile, the youngest member, our lovely Hong Eunchae, commanded attention with her own special stage. Teaming up with **NMIXX’s Kyujin** and **IVE’s Leeseo**, the trio, affectionately dubbed **’Makgangz,’** delivered a performance of BLACKPINK’s ‘Pretty Savage’ that was pure, unadulterated charisma. Eunchae, with her stunning visuals and powerful, dynamic choreography, paired with impeccable rapping, captivated everyone. It was a beautiful display of her multifaceted talent, showcasing her as a burgeoning star ready for any role. 🌟

Speaking of grand narratives, **LE SSERAFIM’s** story is clearly going global, reaching across borders as they wrap up the year and step into the next.
