LE SSERAFIM debuted nearly two years ago, but the talented group is known for having a close dynamic that makes it seem like they’ve known each other for years.
Even though each member had varying backgrounds before their debut, their wide range of talents complemented each other, and they’ve since found common interests and hobbies that have only strengthened their bond as a group.

One of those interests is watching reality television shows, so naturally, the group had a blast creating their own parody reality show, Transit Friendship, where five ex-best friends arrive to a shared location to find new friends.
For the show, the members made up their own contestants and slipped into their roles, improvising each line.

To make the experience more authentic, they even filmed a commentary episode where they acted as a panel reacting to a third “unreleased” Transit Friendship episode.

The members seemed to think of it all while crafting an authentic reality show experience; what they didn’t predict was how their show would end, thanks to a surprise twist orchestrated by staff members.
As LE SSERAFIM wrapped season one of Transit Friendship, one of the crew members unexpectedly collapsed, startling the members.

After the members approached the crew member to check on her, the remaining staff announced that there had been a murder and the culprit was in the room, transforming their fun reality show into a murder mystery.
