[instiz] (G)I-DLE, CONTROVERSY OVER UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE RED CROSS... AT RISK OF BEING FINED ft. MORE REACTIONS

Group (G)I-DLE wore lifeguard costumes on music broadcasts, sparking controversy over occupational s**ual objectification and unauthorized use by the Red Cross.

On the 22nd, fans' criticism of (G)I-DLE's stylist team continues online. (G)I-DLE was once again embroiled in controversy over their costumes, sparking anger among fans.

It is presumed that the intention of the costume was to evoke the cool summer sea, but the public and fans unanimously said, "Isn't this lifeguard job s**ual objectification?", "What kind of lifeguard goes to the rescue wearing clothes like that?", and "Can't they just wear crop tee and shorts?." 

Furthermore, what has been pointed out as a bigger problem is the use of the red cross in costumes. The Korean Red Cross prohibits unauthorized use of the Red Cross emblem, and launched a campaign to protect the Red Cross emblem in May, just two months ago.

2. The moment I saw this I went "no way" ..ㅋㅋ

3. This is just embarrassing... They have so many staff members, don't tell me none of them thought this was problematic..

4. Sigh 

6. I was watching this and wondered "Is this allowed?" I hope they can apologize fast

7. I'm more shocked that this isn't more controversial than it is...ㅋㅋ

8. This song from G)I-DLE is way too different from what they've been releasing so far... And the outfits look like they're regressing 

9. I just feel like any s**ualization of any jobs is problematic... I was shocked when I watched this live 

10. I knew this would be a controversy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Sigh 

[instiz] THE RED CROSS CONTROVERSY IS AN OVERREACTION 

As controversy arose over (G)I-DLE's unauthorized use of the Red Cross mark during their comeback activities and sexual objectification of related occupations, the Korean Red Cross announced its position on this matter.

[...]

According to the Korean Red Cross Organizational Act, unauthorized use of the Red Cross emblem is subject to a fine of up to 10 million won or a fine of up to 5 million won.

....

Regarding the controversy over (G)I-DLE's stage costumes for using the Red Cross emblem without permission, the Korean Red Cross said, "There was no request for approval from (G)I-DLE regarding the use of the Red Cross emblem." “We will be submitting a prevention plan, but since it has been determined that there is no ill intention, there will be no fines or fines imposed.”

So according to those people, nobody should use the Red Cross ever again?

Who do you think you are?

And The Boyz has already worn this in the past

So you guys go silent when boy groups do it, but only react when girl groups do it?

1. Wasn't the overreaction from the idol fandoms only?

2. The ones overreacting were idol fans 

4. The Boyz already wore that...?

5. The Boyz???????!!!!

6. But it's true that it's problematic... Especially the s**ualization of occupations, even if it's just a costume it's important to raise awareness around this issue

7. It hasn't been that long since the Red Cross was banned from unauthorized use, even in games, they only changed it recently 

8. The Boyz did it in 2021, Oh My Girl did it in 2023, But they only started banning the unauthorized use last year

9. Why are you dragging other idols...

10. They only started banning this last year
