On the second day of this year’s Kachela, a close, K-Pop Girl Group Blackpink made history on Saturday night when he became the first Asian Act to headline the festival. Allegedly, for a crowd of over 125,000 people, Jenny, Jizu, Lisa and Rosa used a ground-breaking moment to pay tribute to the Korean heritage by reaching the stage in Hanbox: a traditional type of dress.
While the clothing was excluded from a few seconds in their early tracks, “Pink Venom”, each member’s custom black and pink dolce and Gabbana organization, revealing the organization, had already received the message to fans around the world. Screenshot The moment quickly spread between the Blackpink Superfan, otherwise known as the blink. “The way he stepped on the largest western stage in Hanbox … literally proved to be his place at the top of the industry,” a blink tweeted. “Blackpink is actually in a league of its own.”
Another on Instagram called the “Cultural delegation of Korea” a group, not only in the context of Hanbox, but other visual signs in his show, such as one of the backdrops of a platform that reminds of traditional Korean architecture.
In recent years, Blackpink has enjoyed a meteor increase for global fame. According to Guinness World Records, they are currently the most streamlined female groups on Spotify, and the most viewed music YouTube channels. Last year, she was the first woman-pap group to reach number 1 in the UK and the US album chart, and in 2020 her track “How You Like That” became the most watched video on YouTube in 24 hours. (The group also wore the Hanbox designed by Kim Danha in one of the music video scenes.) In the weekend, his landmark was actually a follower for another milestone: In 2019, in 2019, he became the first woman to play in Kachela or any other American festival.
The iconic gene Paul Galtier Con bra from Madonna’s Ghori ambition tour for the 1990s’ Ginjar Spice “Hallivell’s Union Jack Mini Dress, the right platform dress, may remain in public memory forever. Especially when worn in a career-defined moment. Another watershed was a joyous indication for the 2018 headline set-singer’s custom Balmanate-Shell Yellow Hoodi Black Culture during the Kachela performance, especially historically black colleagues and universities.
The group had four black Hanbox South Korean pattern design brand OUWR and the customers built by traditional Korean dressmakers Kumdanje. Inspired by Cheol-Lik Silhouette, each dress was tightened by hand with metallic Korean motifs, including dan-chong patterns and peonies (symbols of royalty in Korea). The designers wrote in a combined Instagram post, “It was our happiness and was such an honor to be able to show the beautiful values of Korea and Hanbok together.” “Blackpink showed Korea’s beauty and dazzled the world.”

In Korea, Hanbok is still worn for special occasions and often seen TV drama. Many designers of the country have also created contemporaries which are involved in everyday wear. At Seoul Fashion Week, the Fall-Vinter 2023 collection of the JulyColum attracted to Hanbok’s voluntary silhouette to make shirts and structured jackets. Last September, the Korean label Bluetamburin brought a garment to a Western audience using the traditional Hanbok fabric to create its spring-sum 2023 collection at Milan Fashion Week.
Whether you are a dedicated eyelid or not, a moment of looks Asian visibility, the recognition of traditional craftsmanship and a powerful example of the feeling seen through fashion – represent the Korean culture and symbolically embrace both your past and the future.
At the end of his performance, and after addressing the audience amid numbers in English during his two -hour long performance, Blackpink finished his set in Korean: “So far, it is Jenny, Jisu, Lisa and Rosa Blackpink. Thank you.”
