4th-Gen Idol Goes Viral With Jaw-Dropping Jinx Cosplay Following “Arcane” Finale
Amidst the huge buzz surrounding the end of the popular show Arcane, fourth-generation soloist AleXa is sending fans into overdrive with her stunning cosplay of the character Jinx.
AleXa took to social media shortly after the show’s final act dropped on Netflix this week to share photos of her latest transformation into the beloved character. Dressed in Jinx’s signature leather ensemble, AleXa nailed every detail of the Arcane look — from her electric blue braid and ethereal pink contact lenses to the character’s distinct cloud tattoos and eccentric expressions.

Shortly before sharing the cosplay on TikTok and Twitter, AleXa told subscribers on the fan-artist communication app Bubble that she had purchased the Jinx wig months ago, but finally started styling it recently while she couldn’t sleep, making the accuracy even more impressive.
• 아 참 (ah right)
• 안 그래도 (actually)
• 못 자니까(Because I can't sleep)
• 작곡말고 (Other than composing)
• 이거 스타일링함(I styled this) pic.twitter.com/mAcbENuC3j— ˢˡᵒʷ (@AleXaMSGs_) November 24, 2024
This isn’t AleXa’s first time embodying the iconic character. In 2022, she collaborated with the acapella group VoicePlay to cover the Arcane title song, “Enemy” by Imagine Dragons. At the time, AleXa donned her natural hair for the look, which was already dyed blue for her winning American Song Contest entry, “Wonderland.”
Nevertheless, AleXa’s fans (known as A.I Troopers) are marvelling at how well her portrayal of Jinx has evolved over time.

Based in the universe of the hit video game League of Legends, Arcane has gripped a huge viewer base, including multiple K-Pop idols. League of Legends is already known to many for its virtual K-Pop girl group K/DA (with characters voiced by (G)I-DLE’s Soyeon and Miyeon), and Stray Kids recently appeared on the official soundtrack for the second season of Arcane with their song “Come Play.”
Soloist Sunmi also previously cosplayed Jinx for her performance at the 2021 KBS Song Festival.
