TWICE member Jihyo (29, real name Park Ji-hyo) expressed her firm stance on stage outfits.
Jihyo appeared as the headliner at "Waterbomb Kaohsiung 2026," held at Dream Mall in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, on the 12th.
Jihyo wore a silver metallic crop top adorned with pearls, paired with washed denim pants.
Jihyo showcased her healthy physique and delivered a dazzling performance. While she received praise for her solid live singing, some reactions noted that the denim pants felt out of place given the water-spraying nature of the show. This is because female singers have traditionally appeared on Waterbomb stages in bold outfits like bikinis or swimsuits. Local netizens responded with comments such as "The most refined outfit I've seen at a Waterbomb" and "Regardless of the outfit, Jihyo's performance was truly outstanding."
Later, Jihyo addressed the stage outfit on her fan communication platform. When a fan asked, "I've never seen anyone wear jeans at Waterbomb before. Wasn't it heavy?" Jihyo replied, "It was heavy, but it was my choice."
