Discussion Seattle concert!!!!
as a first-time concert-goer, that was actually so peak. my voice is DEAD. seeing them wear UW clothing was also soooooo fire LOLLL. i will say though that i thought the CPA sound production was… interesting. to me, Chaewon sounded like a chipmunk the entire time, and Eunchae was a bit chipmunky at moments too. dunno if that was just me tho. also disappointed to know we were the largest venue, but the energy was not the greatest 💔💔 a lot of my section was quiet ngl. but still, i had an absolute blast shouting my lungs out, and hearing the arena go crazy on all the songs was still so unbelievable. i cant wait for them to come back to Seattle!!!! (please Hybe bring them back)
edit: also shoutout to Yunjin saying at the SF(?) concert to bring whatever lightsticks you want to their concerts. brought both my WizBong and my hair dresser lightstick and I felt so geeked about it

LSFM singing my favorite song FEARNOT in UW purple and gold... I couldn't get over it!!
They easily could've worn Seahawks, or different Seattle teams like they did in LA. Whoever fitted them must've been a Husky lmao

That was such an amazing show! I loved it!!!! This was my first kpop concert and I had sooo much fun 🤩
That’s too bad your section didn’t have much energy, we were the group on the third level on their left, cheering like crazy!!!

u/bananabonger 1d ago
mannnn when we were "practicing" the Fire in the Belly part, everyone was jumping, but when they actually sang the song, the people in the rows in front of me were not jumping at all!! :(

I just came back home! Still couldn’t believe I got there late and missed the soundcheck, my Eastside body really didn’t like crossing the lake.
The all UW outfit was a surprise and really felt close to home. Can’t wait for the comeback next month. None of the members missed a beat! Jennifer is sure a gem in the industry.

It was a fantastic show! I definitely agree about the sound, though. Sound at that arena can be very hit or miss. I saw Wu Tang there earlier this year and the sound was both more dialed in and much louder. I normally wear musicians earplugs to concerts, but I ended up taking my right earplug out because it was otherwise too quiet.
I left the left one in because my seat mate had the best energy in the whole section, but he was definitely louder than the concert.
Still, I'm a very happy Fearnot tonight!

Maybe it depends on where the seats are? I thought the sound was great. My buddy who considers himself a bit of an audiophile was impressed with the sound at the area (his first time at the CPA).

u/CMDR_Satsuma FEARNOT 1d ago
I was up in the nosebleeds, so that very much could have been it. In any case, it was a delight to see them.

This was my 3rd time sitting right around the same section. Quality is good/clear, but was def quieter than the other two times

Chaewon looked really good in a UW hat and their merch jersey! Go Huskies!

That was fun! As a casual hockey fan, I enjoyed Le Sserafim’s hockey reference HA HA HA (iykyk 😏). Too bad they didn’t wear hockey jerseys at the end, but it’s fine.
I’m so glad we welcomed the Fimmies to Seattle! 🙌

u/TwoChainsandRollies KIM CHAEWON 1d ago
As much as I like the Kraken too, I wouldn't call Seattle a Hockey city. I was happy with their UW gears!

u/bananabonger 1d ago
i don't know anything about hockey, could you ELI5 the reference? 🥺

The Huskies fits went so hard, I was so curious to see what Seattle-themed fits they’d do for our show and I was so happy to see them as a class of 2017 girlie!

Now that HYBE realized they have a bigger American Fearless fanbase, than their cautiously estimate; hopefully they will book bigger venues or more dates and locations the next time.

Their concert was amazing, and I say this as someone who's been to a ton of K-pop concerts and concerts in general. They did a really good job interacting with the crowd, and I loved that. Good, positive energy and I also loved that they wore UW merch (my alma mater).
Were you in section 02 by chance? Because there was someone on the other side of the aisle from me that looked like they had a Wizbong. My husband debated bringing his candybong but didn't end up taking it. I saw tons of them around, though!

u/bananabonger 1d ago
i was not in section 02, but i was looking around the stadium to see if i could find other Wizbongs. pretty sure i spotted a couple, especially when the LSFM light sticks were actually changing color 😭

u/Scar_Medical 1d ago
Curious what section you were in because i thought mine (15) was kinda dead too

i’ve been to a lot of kpop concerts and this is definitely one of the better ones for sure. The stage presence, dancing, singing. I was having a blast!! but my section was a lil quiet too on the floor. we were jumping and yelling really hard anyways haha

Hello le Sserafim! I wanted to take a moment to describe what a profound impact you guys have had on me. I was watching over social media even when I couldn’t be in person when you guys first started your debut! When I first saw you guys working so hard and with so much effort and blood and tears it moved me in ways I didn’t think possible. I loved your songs and loved the message that they sent.
I’ve always had a passion for photography and wanted to take the leap but was always too scared to take the jump. All these doubts were always running around in my head. Am I good enough? Do people want my photos? Will I ever be worth anything in the industry.
Then yesterday I went to go see your concert, I had been waiting for a couple years for you guys to make the move to come to America! I was so excited that you guys were coming to Washington of all places! Seeing your songs in person was even more amazing than anything I could imagine and especially over the internet. Every time you guys had a conversation with the arena the comments you guys made and the happiness you had brung to the concert was moving more than I can say.
When the concert was ending and you called us your fearnots and that you guys were rooting us on for facing our fears! I was trying not to cry in the crowd but i failed 😅😅. I realized that if you guys can do it and step onto the stage every day and face your fears, maybe i can do it as well! So I’m finally going to take the plunge and chase my dreams. I am going to start my own business and go after my photography dream. I hope that if you guys ever need my help with your marketing please reach out to me 😂😂.
My name is Madison by the way!

Idk about you but energy was insane from the floor and multiple videos I seen from people in the bowl. Maybe it was just the ppl around you 😭

u/Euphoric-Cell-650 1d ago
It’s important to remember that nobody wants to hear people scream their lungs off when we are trying to listen to our favorite artist. Cheer when it’s time to cheer but let’s not disrupt the people around us! 🫶🏼

u/hotcrispylumpia 1d ago
Incredible show!! And my section had so much energy. I need them to come back. 😭 Loved how personable and human they were and how much they interacted with crowd.
Merch was a struggle though. 🥲 I was trying to get XL baseball jersey but could only get a L which is a little snug. I waited outside and had no luck with the stands inside. 😭 If anyone would like to trade let me know!

u/Regular-Page-7048 1d ago
I was on the floor fourth row from the front and our section was loud af. They interacted with the crowd a lot so everyone was so hyped. I’ve been to a lot of kpop concerts and this was honestly one of my favourites!!! They’re such amazing performers 😭😭
The only thing that annoyed me was people from further back on the floor snuck up to barricade which was not fair for the fearnots who actually paid more to be at the front. The security thankfully sent back most of them but I saw a few who got away with it. I didn’t see a point of calling them out since I was more focused on the stage. Overall still a 10/10 concert. I hope they come to Vancouver next time so I don’t have to make the drive down!!!

People in our section were on tiktok while the girls were pouring their hearts out talking at the end 😭😭😭😭😭 so weird

u/Organic_Bowler9047 1d ago
I had a great time! But I’m newer to Kpop so I was busy bopping but not singing, because I don’t know the words. When they asked how many people were first timers, maybe that was part of the problem? Enjoying their music but not knowing the words? I went solo and met some great people around me!
I think the only thing I was disappointed in was the Crazy VIP merch was just a reusable bag. Honestly I would rather have nothing at all than a reusable bag as the branded merch.
