Top Female Idol’s “Revealing” Outfits Trigger Heated Debate
A post on a Korean online forum is going viral after claiming that Cosmic Girls‘ (WJSN) Dayoung only gets praised for wearing revealing outfits because she isn’t conventionally attractive.
According to the viral post, a prettier female idol would have been torn apart for the same thing.]
Honestly, it’s funny how Dayoung gets praised for showing skin when she’s not even that pretty.
If a pretty female idol showed as much skin as Dayoung, she’d obviously get torn apart for it.
I’m not saying people should hate on Dayoung either. I just wish people would lay off the pretty female idols. These washed-up girls really need to get a grip.— Viral post on Pann
Dayoung’s solo career took off after she released “body” with a completely new “hot girl” image. The song went viral among international K-Pop fans, and ever since, Dayoung has been a trending topic more often than not.
However, it seems like her styling choices have struck a nerve. In the comments of the viral post, a heated debate ensued.
- “Back in the day, people would absolutely trash Hyuna for showing skin, but when Hwasa did it, they’d call it ‘girl crush energy’ and love her for it.”
- “Dayoung would’ve gotten a bad reaction too if she’d dressed like that early in her career. It works now because her concept has matured with her age, but it’s a bit much for a group that still has underage members. Also, dude, it’s not about being pretty… how is that the female idol’s problem? Women actually tend to be even harsher about less conventionally attractive women showing skin. They’ll body-shame them to no end.”
- “Facts lol. If they feel threatened by someone, they tear her down. If not, they don’t.”
- “Just look at Kwon Eunbi, people on the boards were going absolutely feral over her at Water Bomb lol. Women really are women’s worst enemies.”
- “Why are you hitting people with facts lol”
- “Dayoung isn’t pretty?? Even just watching her in challenges, she holds her own against anyone. What are you on about?”
