This clip has been gaining attention for her debut for beauty and skills, proving she's a "Celestial Celebrity."

In the video, even if they were singing as a chorale, Kim Chaewon stood out for her evident passion for singing, as well as her facial expressions.

Her visuals also received praise, specifically her fair skin, slim jawline, and round eyes at the time are the same as now, proving she's a "natural beauty." Even without makeup, Chaewon flaunted an incredibly pure and innocent beauty.

Fans who saw this left rave reviews such as:

• "She only grew taller."
• "She's really tall even as a child."

Following the clip, some expressed that they really see Chaewon as a good-natured kid who grew up in a good environment throughout her childhood.

A classmate who graduated from the same high school called Kim Chaewon a "LE SSERAFIM member who will be free from a controversy over school violence" recalled that she was a quiet student who only hangs out with her close friends.

Another classmate also said:

"She used to wear glasses in the past, but she took them off because our classmates told her to take them off at the festival. She was a modest student and everyone asked her to take off her glasses for good because she was so pretty."

As LE SSERAFIM's popularity skyrockets, every move of the members is also drawing attention, including their past history. But Kim Chaewon is a celebrity in nature who is not problematic at all even before she debuted.
