Her past songs such as “SMILEY” solidified her image as a sweet, girl-next door figure.

Recently, however, she shocked netizens with her visual transformation. A post from February showing her look for the KStyle Party was the main focus.

Instead of her usual good girl look, she tuned into her bad girl side with heavy eyeliner, well-defined aegyosal, and matching goth accessories.

Netizens commented that she “looks so different” and “more trendy.” They noted that her makeup is especially “stronger” and “more exaggerated than usual.”

It was a far cry from the happy-go-lucky style that the general public knows her for.
