It is compared to two different icons.
Koreaboo
Throughout their careers, many idols experiment with different looks for album concepts, performances, and photo shoots. The style of a girl group, in particular, attracts attention because it is as bold as it is beautiful.
Jurin is a member of XGa Japanese girl group based in South Korea. Rather than calling themselves K-Pop or J-Pop, XG refer to themselves as X-POP: global music that transcends borders. Since debuting in 2022, XG has become increasingly experimental with its look, leaning into futuristic fashion, Y2K aesthetics…
…colorful J-Rock subcultures…
…and imagination.
When XG debuted their digital single “Tippy Toes,” Jurin looked like this.
She wore a simple dress and makeup that complemented her complexion.
On November 30, a very different looking Jurin went viral on X (formerly Twitter) for this theatrical style.
Netizens, who liked the tweet more than 73,000 times and retweeted it more than 11,000 times, compared Jurin to two different stars: the American singer Chappel Roan and J-Rock legend Mana From I Malice Mizer.

While it’s not uncommon for Jurin to dress daringly these days…
…you can’t deny the resemblance!
