On January 12, Choi Yena, a former IZ*ONE member became the talk of the town after showing off her unconventional fashion 'fit.

On this day, the female soloist uploaded a number of photos on her Instagram account without any context, aside from putting the "muscles" emoji as the caption.

The released photos showed Choi Yena posing in what appears to be a filming waiting room. In particular, the female idol immediately grabbed fans' attention due to her beauty reminiscent of a peach.

But what caught the eye of netizens and K-pop fans most was the casual yet sexy charm Yena flaunted wearing a cropped sleeveless top combined with a low-rise style.

The "SMILEY" singer who's wearing her pants a little bit down the waist, caught the eyes of viewers at once by revealing her underwear line and pelvis.

Choi Yena's Visuals in IZ*ONE vs Now: Idol Draw Mixed Reactions For Fashion Style

In the past, Yena who joined Mnet's "Produce 48" first captured fans' attention for her innocent and vibrant energy. Thus, when she debuted in IZ*ONE, the "Panorama" singer became known for her cute and refreshing image just like a "little sister."

However, after debuting as a soloist, Yena ventured into a lot of fashion styles and showed off a look that has never been shown before.

In her recent photos, Yena showcased herself in a low-rise style, a typical Y2K fashion where pants are worn between the belly button and the pelvis with a style opposite to the high waist. She also incorporated the visible underwear trend wherein the line of her undergarment was slightly worn outside the pants.

These combined trends created an unconventional fashion that was recently challenged by (G)I-DLE Minnie.

Following the photos, most Internet users responded:

• "It's cool, you're oozing with girl crush vibe."
• "Choi Yena's duality everyone."
• "Why are you so attractive?"

Even K-pop idols commented on her photos saying:

• "Oh my dear!" (Jeon Somi)
• "Hey, you're sexy, but I like it too much" (G)I-DLE Yuqi)

However, there are still K-pop fans and netizens who raised their brows against Yena's sexy image, saying:

• "It looks like excessive exposure, not fashion."
• "I frown the whole time I see it."
• "Oh my, cover yourself, sister."
• "What are you doing? Put your pants up."
• "Yena, it's winter now."

Meanwhile, Choi Yena, who has been working as a solo singer since the disbandment of IZ*ONE, is set to make a comeback with her first single album, "Love War" on January 16.

Recently, she held her first fan meeting ticketing on February 4, and at the same time as the opening, all seats were sold out, realizing her hot popularity.
