What people are saying
Some kpop artists lose their aura the moment they step out of korea…
It has nothing to do with their outfits. K-celebrities just instantly lose all their aura the moment they're outside Korea.
Dolce & Gabbana only dares to pull this kind of shit with Korean celebrities. Last time, they made Moon Gayoung wear lingerie in broad daylight.
He’s always being humiliated by events. Who is his pr team? Cant they handle this better??
