The moment Sakura Miyawaki spoiled the younger members has recently become a concern. His treatment of Hong Eunchae LE SSERAFIM and Ahn Yujin IVE was compared again.
Before joining LE SSERAFIM, Miyawaki Sakura started her career in the Korean music industry with IZ*ONE. In these two groups, Sakura is both included in the ranks of the oldest members.
So far, Sakura is known to be very indulgent to the younger members. In the present day, Sakura and the LE SSERAFIM members love Hong Eunchae and treat her well.
Recently, the way Sakura treated the youngest members of the two groups was suddenly compared. Fans find similarities between Eunchae and Ahn Yujin, who is now debuting with IVE, when they are around Sakura.
A video circulating on social media shows how Sakura confronts Yujin and Eunchae. In the video, Yujin can be seen playing with Sakura's arm by pressing it. Eunchae was not much different, once playing with Sakura's arm.
Yujin himself is one of the youngest members in IZ*ONE and has something in common with Eunchae. Both of them have towering heights, namely at 172 cm and 168 cm. But in terms of behavior, both of them are so cute.
Besides being toyed with with her arms, Sakura also let Yujin and Eunchae climb on her back. With a height of 163 cm, Sakura is happy to carry them both.
Even though the moments in the video are taken from different times, Sakura shows the same attitude. Fans couldn't help but feel emotional about what they saw. Some of them reminisce about Sakura during IZ*ONE, others admire the beautiful idol for her affection.
"Nooo I'm crying," said one of the fans. "Kkura must be deja vu," said other fans. "No really, if you talk about this kids will lose their minds like that," added another.
"Sakura has raised a giant Maknae baby, this clip makes me (cry)," commented a fan. "The way he's so used to squishy arms now. He treats babies well," said another.
Sakura has graduated from HKT48 since June 2021 just a few months after IZ*ONE disbanded. During her time as an idol, Sakura has shown a lot of progress from her dancing skills, singing to music composition.
Meanwhile, Sakura's latest single with LE SSERAFIM "UNFORGIVEN" debuted at No. 5 Melon shortly after its release. The MV itself succeeded in occupying the 2nd position on YouTube Music less than 24 hours after its launch. LE SSERAFIM has sold at least 1.38 million copies during the pre-order period.
LE SSERAFIM plans to kick off the "FLAME RISES" tour, opening with a concert in Seoul in August. They will also stop by in Indonesia in October 2023. (wk/inta)
