…many couldn’t help but note the shortness of the outfits the members were wearing, Aijing in particular. The idol wore short shorts with a pair of safety shorts underneath, and a top slightly cropped at the stomach.
Many expressed wishes that the group as a whole would wear outfits that were longer and less form-fitting, comparing the look to underwear.
- “No, that’s straight-up underwear? And before, when they wore outfits like that, they used to be more careful with the camera angles. Why do they keep filming from such a low angle? It’s really uncomfortable to watch.”
- “I wondered what the big deal was, but they really did dress her in what looks like underwear; there’s a limit. What are they thinking, dressing a 13-year-old like that? None of them are right in the head.”
- “The problem isn’t just that the clothes are short. They’re putting fully grown, figure-hugging outfits on kids whose bodies haven’t even finished developing. Seriously, what is that?”
- “You shouldn’t dress young kids the same way you dress adult idols.”
