aespa’s recent music show performance has gotten embroiled in a controversy over their stage outfits.
On May 30 (KST), the girl group performed their latest release, “LEMONADE,” at MBC’s Show! Music Core. Their stage outfits quickly became a hot topic as all the members looked stunning in their black uniform-like ensemble.

However, netizens quickly noticed that Giselle’s outfit stood out from the rest of the members, and not in a good way. While the other three were sporting short-length outfits, she was the only one in full-length pants. This styling choice raised questions since it made Giselle completely blend into the background with the dancers, who were wearing almost the same outfit as her.
The clip of this particular music show performance soon went viral on X (formerly Twitter), prompting even non-fans to question why this issue appeared to be recurring only with Giselle.
