K-Netizens Criticize Girl Groups’ Altered School Uniform Trend (ft. NewJeans, LE SSERAFIM)
A recent viral topic on the online community Pann Nate centered around the recent trend of girl groups, such as NewJeans and LE SSERAFIM, sporting modified versions of school uniforms
What some attempt to pass off as a preppy or fashionable concept is being seen by some netizens as nothing more than an odd and sometimes inappropriate alteration of the school uniform.
While netizens acknowledge the stylish visuals of girl groups like NewJeans and LE SSERAFIM performing in short, sometimes revealing uniforms as their outfits, there’s a sense of disappointment in how such outfits depart from the modesty typically associated with school girls’ uniforms.

Comments left by Korean netizens reflect a mix of reactions to the trend.
- Stop shortening the uniforms. Why do they feel the need to do it every time?
- Then why not direct your criticism towards celebrities like Britney Spears who wore the same thing?
- While I’m not overly concerned about the exposure, I still find it odd that they opt to wear school uniforms in such a manner.
- They would be even prettier if they stuck to wearing uniforms as they are
- This trend is displeasing to me.
- If they wish to show skin, there are plenty of other outfit options available.
- The original aesthetic of school uniforms is pretty enough, so why would they constantly alter them?
- Isn’t the current trend leaning towards a preppy style?
- I hope they put an end to this trend as well.
- The school uniforms worn by NewJeans and LE SSERAFIM sometimes don’t even align with their concepts.
