IVE’s Stylist Hit With Major Backlash— Sparks Fury Online

Recently, IVE’s stylist received major criticism regarding the members’ outfit choices at the Coupang Play Series Halftime Show.

The issue began to grow, and even Jang Wonyoung’s Chinese fanbase sent a letter to Starship regarding the outfit situation.
Most recently, an online community post garnered over 87,000 views as netizens reacted to the malicious comments targeted at the stylist.

- “This has been the hot issue all day, and to think that the girls are being hated on for this makes me want to kill everyone. She already has so much hate for nothing…did you really not think before making this? Don’t you know what happened last time?”
- “Why don’t you try to kick a ball while wearing clothes like that and see if you can do it properly. Crazy b*tch, can’t believe you put her in that outfit knowing exactly what kind of hate she would get for it.”
- “I can’t say anything nice about this. Do you know what a kickoff is? Who wears something like that to kick a ball? Whose head did this idea come out of?”
- “This outfit would’ve already been criticized if it were a normal outfit, but to wear that to a sports game? F*ck.”
To this, netizens felt bad for the stylist as they felt it wasn’t their fault.
