Stray Kids Felix Fashion Claimed to Be 'Excessive'
Korean reporters slammed Felix for donning outfits with too many logos.
On December 21, 2023, Felix was seen with the other members of Stray Kids at Gimpo International Airport, heading to Japan for overseas schedules. For his flight, Felix was dripped out head-to-toe in Louis Vuitton. While he was wearing an expensive brand, reports claimed he looked tacky.

They added that his outfit had no sense of luxury. Reporters warned readers that if you overuse statement pieces, then nothing becomes a statement piece.
SHINee Taemin Fashion Too Old-Fashioned?
On August 17, 2023, Taemin was seen at Incheon International Airport heading to Los Angeles to attend KCON LA 2023. For his flight, Taemin wore a Supreme beanie, a long-sleeved black V-neck, and purple pants that had several holes. They appeared too big on him, held up by his belt.
Reporters claimed the combination of the beanie with his v-neck looked oddly old-fashioned, despite how he accessorized with AirPods Max and a designer bag.
Additionally, the purple pants with numerous holes are uncomfortable to look at; a reporter even claimed it was as if Taemin wanted people to suffer from trypophobia by looking at his jeans.
It appeared Taemin wanted to go for a vintage look, but he had failed to do so.
TXT Yeonjun Draws Flak for 'Dizzying' Fashion
The final idol selected is TXT member Yeonjun.
On November 10, 2023, TXT was seen departing to attend KBS's "Music Bank in Chile." For the flight, Yeonjun wore a matching gingham Gucci suit. He was seen wearing a blue collared shirt and a tie. He matched the outfit with a Gucci carry-on and Nike sneakers.
Yeonjun was criticized for trying too hard to look like a "Human Gucci." They also claimed the checkered suit with the checkered duffel bag is dizzying and can give someone a headache.
They also wondered why he wore that in an airport, as it looks uncomfortable to sit in.
Some comments regarding the reporters' picks read:
- "Felix looks like a child and Taemin looks tacky. Yeonjun's fit just sucks."
- "They look like they are wearing knock-off luxury goods."
- "It does look kinda tacky..."
