LE SSERAFIM Saju: 5 Birth Charts, 5 Signature Colors and the One Element They Lack

LE SSERAFIM's name is an anagram of "I'm fearless", and four years after their May 2022 debut the group has the numbers to back it. Their first world tour, EASY CRAZY HOT, was the highest-grossing K-pop girl group tour on Billboard's 2025 list. FEARNOT also know that each member has a representative color: silver for Chaewon, pink for Sakura, green for Yunjin, blue for Kazuha and red for Eunchae.

We ran all five members through Korean saju and found something unexpected: three of those five colors match the member's own Day Master element almost exactly. To check your own element as you read, a free saju reading takes about a minute.

How We Read These Charts

Every chart in this post comes from the Sajumuse saju engine, the same engine behind more than 260 paid Sajumuse readings. Because no member has an official birth time, we ran each birth date through all 12 possible birth hours and only report what stays the same in every one. Where a result changes with the hour, we say so and give the range. The readings are written by our Korean saju counselor, certified in Korea as a Myeongri Psychological Counselor (Level 1) and Family Psychological Counselor (Level 1).

So the Hour Pillar is never used. The other three pillars come from each public birth date, with the year set by Ipchun, and every Day Pillar matched an independent calendar check.

One member needs a footnote. Yunjin was born on 8 October 2001, the day the solar term Hanlu (Cold Dew) began in the early afternoon Korean time. Her Month Pillar is 丁酉 if she was born before it and 戊戌 if after. We show 丁酉 below and flag every point where the other version would change the reading. Her Day Master, chart strength and missing element are the same either way.

LE SSERAFIM at a Glance

The Element LE SSERAFIM Is Short Of

Across the 30 stems and branches of the five three-pillar charts, the count is Wood 9, Earth 8, Metal 6, Water 4 and Fire 3. With Yunjin's alternative Month Pillar, Fire drops to 2. Three members, Chaewon, Sakura and Kazuha, show no Fire on the surface at all.

Fire in saju is visibility: stage light and recognition. A group with so little of it on paper became one of the most watched girl groups of its generation, a reminder that a missing element is a direction a chart reaches toward, not a ceiling. See our guide to missing elements in saju.

Their Representative Colors, Read Through Saju

Korean tradition links each element to one of five colors, obangsaek: Wood is cheong (blue-green), Fire is red, Earth is yellow, Metal is white and silver, Water is black. We covered the system in our BTS saju colors post.

• Chaewon, silver: a direct match. Silver is Metal, and she is a 辛 Yin Metal Day Master, the gemstone.
• Yunjin, green: a direct match. Green is Wood, and she is a 甲 Yang Wood Day Master.
• Kazuha, blue: a match on two levels. Cheong, the traditional Korean blue, belongs to Wood, her Day Master, and deep blue is the modern stand-in for Water. Wood and Water are her two helpful elements in 10 of 12 birth hours.
• Sakura, pink: pink sits in the red family, and red is Fire, one of the three elements missing from her chart's surface. For a Wood Day Master, Fire is the Output element, the energy of performing and creating.
• Eunchae, red: the one color that is neither her element nor her helper. Red is Fire, her Wealth element. Her chart asks for Water and Metal in all 12 hours, so black, navy and white are her saju colors.

Kim Chaewon: The Gemstone Leader

Chaewon is a 辛 Yin Metal Day Master, the polished jewel, born in a 未 Earth month in high summer. Her Year Pillar 庚辰 is one of the four 괴강 (Gwaegang) pillars, a star read as a strong will and a decisive streak, an apt signature for a leader. The engine rates her chart very strong (중신강) in 10 of 12 birth hours.

Metal and Earth carry her chart, with Earth acting as her Resource. Her Month stem 癸 is an Eating God, the Ten God of natural expression, and her Day Branch 卯 is her Indirect Wealth star, read as a feel for people and timing. Fire, her Officer element, appears only as a hidden 丁 inside 未.

That makes 2026 notable: the 丙午 year brings Officer stars in Fire, read for a strong Metal chart as recognition and responsibility arriving from outside. Her current ten-year cycle, 辛巳, also carries the 巳 Fire branch.

Sakura: Four Wood and a Long Career

Sakura is a 乙 Yin Wood Day Master, the flowering vine, born in a 卯 month at the very peak of spring Wood. Her Month Pillar 乙卯 is pure Wood at the 건록 (Prosperity) stage, and with 戊寅 in her Year Pillar she holds four Wood placements, the most in the group. The engine rates her chart very strong in 8 of 12 hours and names Metal with Earth as her helpful pair in those same 8 hours.

Fire, Metal and Water exist only as hidden stems: 丙 inside 寅, 癸 and 辛 inside 丑. A chart this concentrated in one element tends to describe an unusually stable sense of self, which fits a career that runs from Japanese idol groups through IZ*ONE to LE SSERAFIM. Peach Blossom (도화살) sits on her Month Pillar, and the Travel Horse star (역마살) on her Year Pillar.

She is now in a 壬子 Water cycle of Resource stars, and 2026 brings her two Output stars in Fire, the color family of her pink.

Huh Yunjin: Wood Without Water

Yunjin is a 甲 Yang Wood Day Master, the tall tree, sitting on 辰 Earth. The engine rates her chart very weak (극신약) in all 12 birth hours, and the reading holds with either Month Pillar. Her chart is full of output and structure: Direct Officer 辛 over her year, Hurting Officer 丁 over her month (Indirect Wealth 戊 in the 戊戌 version), Eating God in 巳, and Wealth in her own seat.

What the tree lacks is Water, its Resource. It is absent on the surface with either Month Pillar and appears only as a hidden 癸 inside 辰. The engine names Wood and Water as her helpful pair in 8 of 12 hours, and Water with Metal in the other 4. A weak Wood chart pulled toward output describes someone who gives out more than they replenish and thrives with protected time to refill.

Her Year Pillar carries both the 문창귀인 (Literary Star), linked to words and writing, and the Travel Horse star. For a member who grew up in Wisconsin and New York, writes songs and trained in opera, both fit closely.

Kazuha: The Ballet Discipline Chart

Kazuha is a 甲 Yang Wood Day Master sitting on 寅, Wood on its own root, at the 건록 (Prosperity) stage. Her Month Pillar 庚申 is double Seven Killings, Metal over Metal, the Ten God of pressure, rigor and demanding standards. Few chart features describe a classical ballet training more neatly than a tree raised under two layers of Metal.

Her 申 month and 寅 day also form a 寅申 clash, read as fast adaptation and a life that moves, and the Travel Horse star sits on both pillars. That fits a dancer who grew up in Osaka, trained in Amsterdam and debuted in Seoul after only a few months of idol training. Our post on the clash that breaks a pillar open explains this pattern.

Her Year Pillar holds 천을귀인 (the Nobleman) and 천덕귀인 (Heavenly Virtue), read as help that arrives through other people. Fire is hidden as 丁 in 未 and 丙 in 寅. A cross-group detail: her Day Pillar 甲寅 in a 申 month is the same combination we found for TXT's Hueningkai.

Hong Eunchae: The Maknae Who Holds the Water

Eunchae is a 癸 Yin Water Day Master, rain and mist, sitting on 卯 at the 장생 (Birth) stage. Her Day Branch is her Eating God, the most easygoing Ten God, linked to warmth, humor and natural speech. The engine also places an unusual cluster of stars on her Day Pillar: the Nobleman, 문창귀인, 학당귀인 and Peach Blossom. A friendly Eating God seat with that much charm attached is a natural profile for a music show host, a role she took on in 2023.

Her Month Pillar 己亥 holds a 亥 Water branch at the 제왕 (Peak) stage. The engine rates her chart borderline (강변약) in all 12 hours, and names Water with Metal as her helpful pair in all 12. Metal, her Resource, is the one element missing from her surface, hidden as 辛 inside 戌.

Her ten-year cycle is turning to 丙申 around this time, bringing 申, a Metal branch, into a chart that lacks Metal on the surface. 2026 and 2027 bring Fire Wealth stars.

How the Five Charts Fit Together

Chaewon, Eunchae and the Wood trio. Metal generates Water and Water nourishes Wood. The leader is the group's only Metal Day Master, the maknae its only Water Day Master, and the other three are Wood. The generating cycle runs straight through the lineup.

Chaewon and Sakura. The two former IZ*ONE members share a 卯 branch, in Chaewon's Day Pillar and Sakura's Month Pillar. Chaewon's 辛 Metal also faces Sakura's 乙 Wood in a stem clash, and Metal is Sakura's helpful element in 8 of 12 hours. In saju terms, Chaewon is the element that shapes Sakura's very strong Wood.

Yunjin, Kazuha and Eunchae. Both 甲 Wood members lean on Water, and Eunchae is the group's only Water Day Master.

Sakura and Kazuha. Sakura's Year Branch and Kazuha's Day Branch are both 寅, a shared root between the two members born in Japan. For more on pairs, see our BTS saju compatibility breakdown.

2026 and 2027 at a Glance

These are tendencies from the Ten Gods for 2026 (丙午) and 2027 (丁未), not predictions of events.

Fire years bring the element three members lack. See the General Star, Saddle Star and Heaven Star guides for what each star marks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the LE SSERAFIM members' Day Masters?

Chaewon is 辛 Yin Metal, Sakura is 乙 Yin Wood, Yunjin and Kazuha are both 甲 Yang Wood, and Eunchae is 癸 Yin Water.

Which element is LE SSERAFIM missing?

Fire is the scarcest element across the five three-pillar charts, with 3 of 30 placements. Chaewon, Sakura and Kazuha show no Fire on the surface.

Do Kazuha and TXT's Hueningkai have the same saju?

They share a Day Pillar, 甲寅, and both were born in a 申 month, so their core is very similar. Their Year Pillars and Month stems differ, so the charts are not identical.

Do the members' representative colors match their saju?

Three match closely: Chaewon's silver is her Metal, Yunjin's green and Kazuha's blue are Wood. Sakura's pink points to the Fire her chart lacks. Eunchae's red is the exception, since her chart asks for Water and Metal.
