FEARNOTs Offer Well-Wishes to LE SSERAFIM Amid Flu Diagnosis

Devoted LE SSERAFIM fans, FEARNOTs, renowned for their unwavering loyalty, have flooded social media platforms with expressions of concern for the affected members.

Some have shared their own encounters with the flu, drawing parallels to the severity of the illness compared to COVID-19, and expressing solidarity with Chaewon, Yunjin, and Kazuha.

"I was out dead for three days with the flu… It's so painful. You all stay healthy!"

"COVID-19 was nothing compared to the flu. Like, the flu comes with that high fever. It’s hard… I think it’s flu season right now. Take care, everyone."

"Get a lot of rest and feel better soon!"

"The flu was worse than COVID-19, IMO. It was painful-AF… I hope they get the rest they need before coming back."

"Oh no, it must be painful. What a bummer… I hope they get well soon!"

"When I got the Type A Flu, I took longer to recover from it than I did for COVID-19. Of course, I spent the whole time scrolling on my phone…"

"Stay healthy, girls."

"I agree, the flu was so much worse than COVID-19. Wishing them a good rest and fast recovery!"

As LE SSERAFIM confronts this unforeseen challenge, fans and the entire music industry are collectively hopeful for a speedy recovery for the stricken members and the eventual resumption of their electrifying performances.
