“They didn’t make any effort?”
TXTMerchandise from “The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY” Pop-Up Store is gaining attention for all the wrong reasons.
Some clothing items consist of a t-shirt, long sleeves, hoodie and crew neck and range from $32 to $64 USD.
However, the projects are receiving negative reactions from netizens for their “lazy” and overly simplistic style.
Netizens left a number of comments criticizing the plans.
- “It’s bad.”
- “It’s funny to boycott something because it’s bad, but I totally understand. I’m more tempted to boycott when something seems terrible.”
- “That pink… seriously…”
- “At least the number 22 (the long sleeve) is better… sigh…”
- “Oh…”
- “The lack of aesthetic sense is crazy. They designed it this way and plan to charge 50,000 to 90,000 KRW ($36 to $65 USD).”
- “They…didn’t make any effort?”
- “I wouldn’t buy it even for 5,000 KRW ($3.6 USD).”
- “No aesthetic sense…”
- “It’s so bad.”
However, the company soon released a statement minimally modifying the clothes. Merchandise items have gone from cold tones…
…with warm tones.
No further changes have been made to the design at this time.
