Jennie was heavily criticized for her wedding dress, netizens were in an uproar!

Jennie's wedding outfit has caused a wave of controversy on social media. When appearing at a wedding in Seoul, the famous Kpop girl chose an overly formal outfit. This immediately caused a stir and anger among international netizens.

On November 25, 2024, the appearance of Jennie - a member of BlackPink - at a wedding in Seoul became a controversial topic on social networks. This famous Kpop girl wore an all-black outfit, from a short-sleeved sweater, pants, shoes to a handbag, making many netizens angry and indignant.

A post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) quickly gained attention with the caption: "Korean wedding culture is so weird, everyone looks like they're going to work." The post received more than 87,000 likes and over 200 comments, including one prominent comment that read: "It looks like she just walked out of the courtroom after giving her husband divorce papers."

Notably, not only Jennie, but also famous stars such as Song Hye-gyo and Kim Go-eun have been criticized for wearing black to attend weddings. Some international netizens expressed surprise and commented: "They look more like they are attending a funeral than a wedding." These opinions have caused heated debate among online communities, with some people saying that Jennie's outfit "destroyed the joyful atmosphere" of the ceremony.

However, those who understand the Korean cultural context were quick to explain and defend Jennie's choice. "If you think Jennie should wear bright colors, you are disrespecting Korean culture," one social media user wrote.

According to Korean tradition, it is considered polite and respectful for guests to wear dark clothes at a wedding, as well as a sign of respect for the bride, who will be wearing a white dress. Meanwhile, wearing bright colored clothes at a wedding, especially by guests, can be considered impolite and "overwhelm" the bride's attention.

While some people think Jennie is simply following cultural traditions, many others think she is showing a lack of creativity and boredom in her fashion choices.

The story was further inflamed by the controversy last year when actress Lee Yu-bi faced intense backlash for wearing pink to her sister's wedding. Although Lee Yu-bi explained that it was the bride's request, the incident still caused a stir and severely damaged her image.

In Jennie's case, some netizens said that if she followed the traditional customs, she should not be judged. However, a large part of fans and audiences thought that this choice was "too safe" and not outstanding enough, especially when she is an international celebrity who is always expected to make a special mark at every event.

Some netizens believe that although every culture has certain rules, big stars like Jennie also need to express their own personality and style. They believe that Jennie can still follow the rules but at the same time can show her uniqueness in the way she dresses without having to follow rigid standards.

Is adherence to tradition an "excuse" to limit the creativity and individuality of artists? This question is still being discussed by netizens, and will certainly be a "hot" topic in the coming days.

Overall, despite the cultural explanations, it’s not uncommon for Jennie to be judged. Jennie’s outfit story is just one of many that are causing heated debate, and there’s no sign of it ending anytime soon.
