Lee Sserafim really erased Garam, those editors deserve an Oscar

It's sad, but the real enemy here is the public, they didn't give Garam a chance, pounced, and ripped her to shreds.

Even after Woojin, Soojin, Tara, and many others the public never ends jumping to conclusions. In the end, they wanted someone to be their villain they can hate on without any consequences to themselves, not the truth.

sigh

I hope the editors got paid fairly for real

One of the main reasons I watched it was to see how they will edit her out.

I was extremely impressed and baffled by how they got some of the edits so perfect as to remove her existence so seamlessly. The editors knocked it out of the park.

Quote from OldJeans

they probably didn't

You're right

Well, it's not like kpoppies weren't like "get rid of her asap so we can move on already"

What has Lesserafim members have anything to do with this ?

I know others have said that showing Garam in the documentary may have violated some law or rule since Garam is no longer in the band. But i dont think this is true. All that footage was taken while she was an employee of the company, that's all company property, Hybe can do whatever they want with it, unless they made some sort of deal with Garam as part of her termination. Which i highly highly doubt.

I'm a huge fan of Ssamkura obviously and i care about their reputations more than most on here. But even i would have preferred that they leave her in the footage, at least in the group shots. The docu was actually awkward to watch, you never got establishing shots of the whole scene everything was a closeup since they couldnt have her in the frame. They then couldve spent at least a brief segment on the Garam controversy to explain who she is and what happened. It's a documentary, it's supposed to show what transpired.

Idols' relationships is not that different than other human beings' relationships. Just like in real life, in one moment you get along well with people, in the other you don't. It doesn't mean when you did It was fake. But, you know, people have conflicts, they fight, they might have different perceptions of what is right or wrong or they get hurt.

Anyway, maybe they still like each other. Their agency and editors' actions don't necessarily reflect on the girls' feelings.

They edited her out to have a new begining for Lesserafim as 5, they needed to separate lesserafim from Garam scandal.

Tbh after watching the documentary I kinda understand why Hybe initially wanted to keep her. They had worked so hard to make this debut perfect and changing members was probably a nightmare. But after the scandal grew and tainted all their planned activities, they decided to cut her because they had worked too hard to have this ruined.

I don't think the members knew each other too well, so it was most likely more of a professional decision than a personal one.

No wonder the footage looks blurry and off-kilter and out-of-place.
