On July 1, Dayoung uploaded a collection of editorial photos to her social media account from a collaboration with a global fashion brand and magazine. In the newly released images, she embraces a dramatic glam punk concept inspired by iconic early 2000s pop fashion, showing off a completely different side to her style.
For the first look, Dayoung wears a fitted white ribbed crop top with Western-inspired silver buckle detailing on the shoulder straps, highlighting her toned physique. Pair it with low-waisted denim shorts finished with raw-cut hems, creating a trendy Y2K silhouette. Metal studs on the pockets add a rebellious touch to the overall outfit.
In another concept, Dayoung switches to a shimmery dark crop top and matching hot pants that create a sultry yet mysterious vibe. The outfit is decorated with sparkling studs, beads and sequins, while a matching hood made from the same sparkling fabric gives the style an avant-garde touch. Dramatic smoky eye makeup combined with a sleek wet-look hairstyle completes the bold fashion editorial.

Fans in Korea and abroad have responded enthusiastically to Dayoung’s latest transformation. In online communities and social media, many have praised his stunning imagery and creative direction of the shoot, calling it one of his most memorable editorials. Some have even compared her style to the legendary Y2K-era looks of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, saying the photos perfectly capture the glamorous pop aesthetic while allowing Dayoung’s charisma to shine.
