When the photos were shared, Korean netizens also reacted to the look. While some said they didn’t like the top because it wasn’t pretty, others hit back at the criticisms, saying that bra tops are more common now, and it seems like fans want to scrutinize female idols’ wardrobes.
Why is her bra top a problem? It’s a pretty common look, I guess people are scrutinizing girl group wardrobes again… It’s not even pretty… They always wear the same thing… Wasn’t the underboob more controversial? Bra tops are pretty common now… although im not saying that it’s right. But I think there’s nothing you can do since it is their concept.
While Korean netizens tend to be more conservative, it seems that many are hitting back at the constant criticism of female idols’ clothing. Some honestly shared their dislike for the specific piece, but others seemingly shared their anger that a fashion trend that is very common worldwide is being criticized because a female idol is wearing it.
