Fans Criticize The “Plain” Nature Of IVE Yujin’s Look Compared To The Members — Netizens Defend The Recent Styling
When IVE first debuted, netizens criticized the styling of the members after Jang Wonyoung was seen to stand out.
It seemed the team took on the criticisms, and netizens loved the cohesion of all the members’ outfits, working together but allowing each idol’s personality to shine within the looks.
Considering the changes the team made, netizens have come to their defense after some fans criticized a recent look, saying it was unfair to Yujin.
IVE are currently on their world tour and on March 27, they performed in Rosemont. Following the show, the group’s Twitter account shared some photos of the members, and they looked cute wearing some customized looks, including different accessories, colors, and textures.
In the post, while most netizens couldn’t get over the idols’ beauty, fans noticed a lot of comments referring to the fact that compared to the other members, Yujin’s styling and accessories were much less than the rest of the group.
Anyone can see the difference in the picture. Why Yujin is the only one without hairstyle or accessories? I will not attack other members. You should be fair to everyone. https://t.co/m23Rtw0CHK

Why don't you style Yujin? The whole game is full of one hairstyle. How many hair ornaments have other teammates changed, but Yujin didn't have one hair ornament for 3 hours. You hate her too much. Less of this. https://t.co/9eQUzv4HJE

Yet, while the comments didn’t get many interactions, fans quickly came to the defense of IVE and their styling team because of the sheer number of posts about it. In the posts, netizens pointed out that IVE has shown they have control over the decisions for their looks and that Yujin has always tended to prefer more minimalistic looks.
Idk why people and even fans keep saying the members don’t have any right to make decision, did they even watch ive on? There’s a lot of part when they introduce the hairstyle they wanted to do. https://t.co/gaPcU4GufL pic.twitter.com/Bt5FawLyYG
