On October 5, aespa took the stage at the K-Link Festival in Incheon, South Korea, earning praise for their energetic performances of “Armageddon” and “Supernova.” However, fans couldn’t help but notice that Karina looked uncomfortable in her outfit. She wore a sheer blue dress layered over a black tube top and protective shorts, sparking concern among onlookers.
During performances, Karina was often seen adjusting the hem of her dress, and her dance movements appeared more restricted than usual, possibly due to the extremely short length of the dress.
Netizens’ comments:
- I watched so many videos discussing how Aespa’s clothes looked uncomfortable, yet it kept happening.
- Furthermore, the designer makes the idols wear clothes that are too short for dancing.
- But they look cute, don’t they? The other members’ clothes seem even shorter than Karina’s ;; and since their debut aespa’s outfits have always been like this.
- They don’t need to be that short.
- After watching the second video, you can really see how short they are.
- It’s so uncomfortable…
- Let them wear something more appropriate, please.
- Not only Karina, but also the other members’ clothes are too short…
- Many people don’t care, as long as it looks good.
- The aespa coordi is notorious for this kind of thing.
It is not the first time that controversies of this type have arisen. Karina has always made waves with her mesmerizing visuals and mesmerizing stage presence. However, behind the glamor on stage, there is a worrying issue that has fans raising their voices: the safety of Karina’s performance outfits.
aespa fans are increasingly concerned about the lack of responsibility shown by the group’s stylists in ensuring the safety of Karina’s outfits.
It’s not just an aesthetic issue, but it’s about the potential dangers that a bad fit or wardrobe malfunction can pose during performances.
In particular, at the MBC Music Festival, Karina’s shoes almost fell apart during her performance. At the governor’s ball, the bulky hem of her dress nearly caused an accident on the stairs.
At the Outside Lands Music Festival, her bra strap and protective top came undone, and her overly long train posed a risk. At the Aespa concert in Germany, Karina had to perform in mismatched shoes, one with a noticeably uneven sole height.
And most recently, at The Fact Music Award 2023, Karina had to repeatedly alter her outfit on stage, appearing clearly uncomfortable.
This issue has evolved from a fashion issue to a critical safety issue. Karina’s fans took to Twitter, using trending hashtags and sending emails and reports to SM Entertainment, expressing their frustration.
However, Karina’s unwavering professionalism shines through. He continues to deliver flawless performances and handles outfit-related incidents with impressive composure.
