Le Sserafim is a girl group from the company Source Music/Hybe labels that debuted on May 2, 2022 and consists of 5 members (formerly 6) Sakura (ex-Iz*One), Chaewon (ex-Iz*One), Yunjin (participated in Produce 48 with Sakura and Chaewon), Kazuha and Eunchae. Le Sserafim is an anagram of I'm Fearless and also makes a reference to the seraphim (a type of angel). 

"Easy" is the title track and lead single of their third mini album also titled Easy.

"Easy" MV Review

"Easy" is a very chill song, the beat is stuck in my head and I find the chorus super catchy. What I don't really like about this song is the heavy use of autotune. I think it doesn't work well with the style of the song. 

I like Eunchae's "clap your hands"part at 0:55 and Chaewon's part at 2:05.

The choreography looks too strong compared to how chill the song is.

I think this concept was made for Chaewon and Yujin; they really shine in this MV and throughout the song.

The MV is an aesthetic masterpiece right from the start, with that gorgeous building full of vines. I love the reference to Michelangelo's "La Pietà" at 0:47 and the scene with Eunchae on the swing that begins at 2:18. The neon lights that appear throughout the MV reminds me of the 1996 movie Romeo + Juliet, especially the LSF heart.

Style-wise, I love the dress that Eunchae wears in the aforementioned swing scene and also the dresses that Yunjin and Eunchae wear in the (also) aforementioned La Pietà-type scene. Eunchae and Yunjin's hair colors look beautiful, especially Yunjin which suits her very well. I also really like the hairstyle Chaewon sports during the chorus.
