5 Most Notorious Times When K-Pop Stylists Did Their Female Idols Dirty
Let’s put this out there first: K-Pop girl group idols are all gorgeous goddesses — and most of the time, they can pull off even the funkiest hair colors, make up styles, and fashion items. In the world of beauty, however, exists the concept of “Personal Color” and sometimes, just sometimes, the stylists’ combinations of hair, make-up, and outfit fail to match the idols’ personal color palettes. When this “tongro” (tone aggression) happens… Well, let’s say the idols’ surreal visuals can still transcend the mismatch — but it isn’t necessarily their hottest moments. Here are the 5 most notorious times K-Pop stylists did their female idols dirty with the wildest tongros, according to Korean netizens.
1. Taeyeon
While Taeyeon still looks like a princess in this picture, Korean netizens couldn’t help but notice how the pink cheeks and the pink lips weren’t really complementing her features.
2. Red Velvet’s Irene
K-Pop fans agree Red Velvet‘s Irene slayed this “Dumb Dumb” era as much as she did the others, but some still remain unhappy about the way her orangey-brown hair and eyebrows didn’t match her personal color.
3. TWICE’s Tzuyu

5. Girl’s Day’s Sojin
