Controversy
During the first Once Halloween that was held in 2018, the TWICE’s leader Jihyo’s costume had been heavily debated and criticized by fans, as she wore a long brown dress with fringe and with a matching brown fur coat.Jihyo also had her face painted with various marks that she paired with a set of pigtail braids and a head ornament made of feathers. Some people said that her costume was meant to be like Princess Mononoke, however, her stylist got her costume wrong.Other fans believed that she was meant to look like a stereotypical “Native American” or “First Nation” person not as Princess Mononoke. However, these types of “Indian” or “Native” costumes are offensive as they treat the heavily stigmatized culture and history of oppressed people as a prop or aesthetic. First Nations women have been disproportionately used and abused throughout history, thus wearing their cultural garb with a slash on the chest as a costume can become a sensitive topic. Fans have identified that Jihyo and her Korean stylist team may be unaware of the issue.
