In particular, the author of a topic include an audio clip of Sakura back when she was a member of IZ*ONE, where the female idol said, “I want to recommend it, ‘Made in Abyss’ is also fun. It’s a bit sad, but it’s in the same vein as ‘The Promised Neverland’ and I cried quite a bit.”
Meanwhile, various male idols have come under fire for mentioning “Made in Abyss” , a dark fantasy manga/anime with various controversial scenes, ranging from t*rture to child s*xualization.

So far, opinions have been divided, with many finding the series unacceptable.
Below are some comments from netizens under the post about Sakura:
- I find it perplexing that people can find gore fun to watch
- But there are a lot of people who recommend it, so this is just divided between people who like it and people who don’t?
- Public figures should be more alert and avoid mentioning content with topics like this…
- I’m not surprised because she’s Japanese
- I really enjoyed the first season but season 2 never came to Korea
