Ko Kyoung Pyo Points out Kong Hyo-jin as Responsible For His 'Terrible Fashion Sense': 'It's All Her Fault'

In a recent episode of DAESUNG's YouTube series "Zip Daesung," actor Ko Kyoung Pyo opened up about his unique fashion sense and pointed fingers at actress Kong Hyo-jin for the criticism he's been facing.

Ko Kyoung Pyo, known for his distinctive style that blends unconventional elements, spoke candidly about the attention his fashion choices have garnered.

 "I think the reason I'm getting attention is because my style is a combination of looks that many haven't tried before. It's a bit weird in some ways, but I personally think it works. At first, when I started thinking that it strangely worked, I was like, 'Oh, this is interesting.'"

However, Ko Kyoung Pyo expressed frustration over the recent backlash he received, attributing it to comments made by Kong Hyo-jin.

"I don't think the public has fully made up their minds about my style yet, but then Kong Hyo-jin recently pointed out my shoes, and suddenly everyone joined in. People who normally wouldn't care started questioning my fashion sense just because she did."

The actor clarified that despite the criticism, his outfits were not necessarily high-end.

"Everything I wore was pretty cheap. I don't even know the brand of the sweater-I got it cheaply. But the shoes were designer. They were more comfortable than sneakers, which is why I chose to wear them."

-Ko Kyoung Pyo

Ko Kyoung Pyo showcased a photo of himself in a pastel-toned sweater and shorts ensemble, paired with sunglasses and leather shoes, which sparked the controversy.

"That's what I usually wear. I actually have a skort at home that I bought from a women's clothing store," -Ko Kyoung Pyo

Despite the criticisms, Ko Kyoung Pyo emphasized his commitment to his personal style philosophy.

"Ultimately, it's about doing what I want. I appreciate the interest in my fashion and hope everyone continues to keep an eye on my style." -Ko Kyoung Pyo
