A kind of accessory that female Kpop idols love lately: Netizens argue over whether BLACKPINK or aespa is the one who created this trend

BLACKPINK and aespa are said to be Kpop trendsetters

NMIXX – JYP’s new girl group is about to debut with the single “AD MARE” on February 22. One day earlier, the outstanding rookie of 2021 – STAYC will also return to the track with the 2nd mini-album in his career called “YOUNG-LUV.COM”. Accidentally, two potential girl groups of Kpop Gen 4 are simultaneously releasing teaser photos showing the concept for their upcoming debut/comeback, sparking a lot of excitement for Kpop fans.

A netizen on the Pann Nate forum recently discovered an interesting similarity in the teaser images of both female groups. That’s the current trend in the use of accessories. The girls appear exceedingly opulent, aristocratic, and draw the audience’s attention with their sparkling accessories.

The finding of the OP caused netizens to agree that this is not a coincidence, but a new trend in Kpop. Someone referred to IVE Wonyoung‘s appearance in the MV “ELEVEN,” which was released at the end of last year, as proof that not just NMIXX or STAYC, but a slew of other well-known idols had similar looks.

Furthermore, several netizens have noted that this concept has emerged as a trend since BLACKPINK released the MV “Kill This Love“. Both members Jennie and Jisoo draw attention thanks to their accessories.

Other netizens responded to the previous comment by saying that aespa really started the trend with a series of teaser photos for their comeback with “Savage” in October last year. At the time, the girls wowed netizens with their stunning fairy concept. The concept of wearing accessories with various symbols on the head helps aespa in becoming a new trendsetter.

It’s clear that both BLACKPINK and aespa worked on this concept before NMIXX and STAYC used it in their new songs’ teasers. Despite the fact that the two groups’ styles are significantly different, Knetizens continue to debate who is truly driving the trend:

  • These teaser photos remind me of Jisoo in the Kill This Love era.
  • Jang Wonyoung also appeared with a similar image.
  • You guys act as if every new trend comes from BLACKPINK?
  • This accessory has become a trend since aespa released concept photos for Savage.
  • Jennie in the Kill This Love era is also incredibly beautiful with this accessory.
