Fromis_9 Jiheon‘s recent outfit has sparked fury after the stylist made it too provocative and didn’t give her safety shorts.
Safety shorts are used to protect female idols when they are wearing short pieces, and NewJeans‘ stylists have been praised for utilizing the shorts well to look stylish and protect the members.
Recently fromis_9 did a fansign event with fans, and the members were wearing uniforms. Netizens quickly noticed how short Jiheon’s skirt was, and while she had a blanket covering her at some times, it wasn’t as she was dancing.

While fans have chosen not to spread the video actually showing Jiheon’s outfit as she stood up (aside from quoting to spread the issue), it hasn’t stopped them from sharing their anger toward the stylist.
In particular, with everything going on in Korea with women and the spread of deep fakes of female idols, they thought it was disgusting that Jiheon was made to wear such an outfit. Some also pointed out that Jiheon could have been wearing safety shorts, but it went against the purpose as they were much shorter than her actually skirt.
maybe let’s bring the issue without adding the video for everyone to see ? like talking about the lack of safety shorts but embedding the video to prove your point is so stupid pic.twitter.com/X85Mpr19SM

She is wearing safety shorts but for some reason the safety shorts are shorter than the skirt which is already short af. Like wtf, frm the very beginning you can see she is uncomfortable.

영상 인용 죄송한데ㅜㅜ
이미 기장이 너무 짧은 치마인데 속안감 속바지 별도 속바지도 안보일정도인데..여기다가 슬릿 추가해서 트여놓을 생각은 어떤 코디가 하셨을까요??? 적어도 입고있는 당사자가 치마를 내리려 할때 잡히는 기장은 돼야하는거 아닌가요???? https://t.co/diyYnEbCWB— 육각2 (@yanggallae_2) September 1, 2024
I apologize for referencing the video, but… The skirt is already very short, and the inner lining and separate inner shorts are barely visible. What kind of coordination led to the decision to add a slit, making it even more revealing? Shouldn’t the length at least be enough so that when the person wearing it tries to pull it down, it offers some coverage?
It’s concerning how you people are acting like idols wear safety shorts because of their body types and not to protect themselves from inevitable harassment https://t.co/nePUnPHJb7
