2008 Mnet KM Music Festival Red Carpet Style

Mk_1115_1

This year, the 2008 Mnet KM Music Festival decided to show off the arrivals in style on a chilly November 15th . The boy bands came in matching suits and white runners while the girls braved the cold by wearing something skimpy. In cold weather, it bites being a woman trying to look fabulous.

Mk_1115_13Mk_1115_19 Joo is alive! We haven’t heard much from the singer under JYP. The girl thinks she’s a princess by standing on a princess stand. Was it made for her? Who knows.

An Hye-kyung, Ha Sang-baek(Designer- left), Yoo Se-youn. Ok, props for Ms An for daring to wear this unflattering dress. Yet, this little number is difficult to pull off because it completely flattens you out. Seriously, what was she thinking?

MK_1115_81MK_1115_80MK_1115_84 Ko Euna’s light pink dress looks like it was made from leftover lingerie.  I think I have yards of that fabric sitting in my closet somewhere. Girl needs to spend some money on a proper (and flattering dress).

MK_1115_82MK_1115_83MK_1115_85MK_1115_86MK_1115_87 Hong Soo-ah. Risking the cold to expose some boobage, the 22 year old actress wants some media exposure. Ummm… what is an actress doing here?

MK_1115_75MK_1115_74MK_1115_76MK_1115_77MK_1115_78 Epik High & Nell. The boys of Epik High and Nell could create a super group called “Epik Highism”

MK_1115_90MK_1115_91MK_1115_92 Jin Jae-young is an example of a 30 year old trying to pull off a dress for someone half her age. And if the red dress is so short, why try to cover yourself with a tiny bag? Why not lug a huge tote bag to cover up?

MK_1115_94MK_1115_95MK_1115_102MK_1115_96MK_1115_97MK_1115_93 SHINee live up to their name- they are indeed shiny in gold and white. Boys are coordinated down to their white runners.

MK_1115_104MK_1115_105MK_1115_106MK_1115_98 2AM are wearing the “galchi” (sliver fish) suit but for the winter in a dark gray.  From far away, you can see the unflattering crinkles….

MK_1115_100MK_1115_108MK_1115_107 U-Kiss. All I can think of when seeing white fur on black is all those thin white hairs sticking to the black fabric. I think they are trying to go gangsta. Fail.

MK_1115_110MK_1115_111Mk_1115_52 V.O.S rummaged through their father’s closets from the 1970’s. Those outfits were sent to the Salvation Army years ago. Fail.

    Hyori looks hot as hell and I really like the idea of Epik High and Nell forming a super group! Well….that may be too much talent in one group!

    Hyori and her booty view. BD

    Jewelry looks cute! Browned Eyed Girls, not so much.

    SHINee looks nice! (If only they tossed the shiny stuff. e_o) Minho is tall!!

    2AM isn’t bad either. ^^

    U-Kiss needs to lose the fur. Though their skin looks freakishly flawless. #_#

    After watching so many Korean dramas, I’m finally convinced that Korean fashion is one of the best and I must say they know the latest styles. But for crying out loud, PLEASE DRESS ACCORDINGLY.

    This is my second look at this and anyone would look ugly in Jin Jae young’s dress. It’s just ugly. Has nothing to do with age.

    whats up with all the fur? im not going to pretend that i really care about the wild animals and all but isnt that looked down upon or is it different in korea?

    i think people in the states would throw a fit seeing this on their red carpet.

  21. 22 RIN December 5, 2008 at 5:21 pm

    i love park jung-ah’s style, her shoes, her wallet, everything. her hairstyle is awesome. if my hair is short like her, i probably make the same style.

    i also like ahn hye kyung’s shoes. its cute. im gonna look for the similar shoes style.

    the rest? the boybands are weird. why they wear such costume? is this red carpet or carnival????
