Lee Hyori is powerful

Leehyori_1119_1Leehyori_1119_4

Remember the little red tartan jacket that Lee Hyori wore at the 2008 Mnet KM Music Festival (MKMF) last week? Well, if you thought it was cute, too bad, it’s sold out (in Korea and foreign online shops).

In just 2 days after the pop diva outfitted herself in tartan, the Dsquared jacket was sold out across the country. The Korean media has labeled Lee Hyori as “Wan-pan” girl-meaning that the girl has power to completely sell out a product.

With such a label, there will be companies throwing their products at her….

Lee Hyori will be performing 2 nights her first solo concert on December 20th and 21st, 2008.

    Lee HyoRi is of few people in K-Pop nowadays with true “star power”. I miss it to be honest and I’m sick and tired of the method of some Entertainment companies to throw an artist in every corner and force us to stomach them.

    Lee HyoRi may not be the most talented out there, but her stage presence, personality and aura make you look her way.

    All power to her, and she looks great in it so why wouldn’t anyone want it?

  7. 7 someone November 20, 2008 at 1:06 am

    perhaps “star quality” is a better term.

  8. 8 reymack1 November 20, 2008 at 1:11 am

    last..,.grrrr

  9. 9 vivian0304 November 20, 2008 at 1:40 am

    she looks good with that outfit

  10. 10 tumyeit November 20, 2008 at 1:42 am

    nothing special though….

  11. 11 rubylovefaith November 20, 2008 at 1:44 am

    I love D&G…….outfit is cute….

  12. 12 Lina November 20, 2008 at 1:57 am

    OF COURSE SHE CAN!!! She can freakin pull of ANYTHING XD
    That jacket was seriously nice!

  13. 13 Mel November 20, 2008 at 2:45 am

    I liked the jacket! :D

  14. 14 idyllise November 20, 2008 at 3:17 am

    damnnn… its nice, but its not exactly the latest trend around. i mean, people in my country started wearing a bit those punkish plaids things a while ago, and when it hits the common streets, you know its not the latest thing on the scene anymore.

    that said, she has a pretty good figure o.o

  15. 15 jennych November 20, 2008 at 3:23 am

    oh those shiny leggings too, saw someone over here wearing them o.O

  16. 16 jajax3 November 20, 2008 at 3:27 am

    woooo LOLS, nice one hyori

  17. 17 sunnyside November 20, 2008 at 3:29 am

    niice

  18. 18 hay hay November 20, 2008 at 3:41 am

    so typical…

  19. 19 jen jen November 20, 2008 at 3:53 am

    it looks nice on her, but i wouldn’t buy it just because she wore it lol. anyways, hyori has done that before. i remember there were some hot pants and they were complete;y sold out as well.

  20. 20 rza November 20, 2008 at 4:02 am

    Now THAT is star power. Truly amazing and influencial. Kinda makes you wonder what the hell we do here in North America. Hollywood sucks so bad, that if Lee Hyori was an earthquake, California will disappear on the face of the earth. Tsk tsk.

  21. 21 yeah sure! November 20, 2008 at 4:11 am

    true, hyori is fly. and whatever she wears looks great on her. and the fact that she can cause clothing to become sold out is amazing, but what does that say about the buyers?
    baaaaaaaaa?

  22. 22 lev November 20, 2008 at 4:21 am

    Homygawd. What power.
    I cannot believe it’s SOLD out.

    This chick looks good in anything. Just throw on some makeup and do her hair a little and BAM!

  23. 23 amy November 20, 2008 at 4:36 am

    i really liked it when i saw it too. she looked great that night

  24. 24 UHMJUNGHWA4EVER November 20, 2008 at 5:21 am

    @ rza

    Oh puhhh-lease. Americans aren’t that easily influenced.

  25. 25 blahblahhhhh! November 20, 2008 at 6:04 am

    Plaid is so yesterday…. whatever!

  26. 26 palki November 20, 2008 at 6:04 am

    I wish she had done black leather pants or dark tight stretch jeans instead of the latex leggings. They just make her legs look short and heavy. Skintight shiny black leggings are only for people over 5′10.

  27. 27 -_- November 20, 2008 at 7:01 am

    i like her jacket but her leathery pants need to go. it is SO ugly and it emphasizes her fatty thighs more.

  28. 28 UHMJUNGHWA4EVER November 20, 2008 at 7:10 am

    ^ WTF. Her thighs aren’t fat.

  29. 29 ji eun November 20, 2008 at 7:12 am

    like i said before, she looks hot in that outfit.

  30. 30 grace November 20, 2008 at 7:23 am

    tartan is a huge fall trend atm.
    in the US, madonna definitely rocked tartan and made it public

  31. 31 xingyzheng November 20, 2008 at 7:37 am

    STAR POWER! you go girl!

  32. 32 HAHAHA November 20, 2008 at 7:47 am

    yes i agree. she makes that jacket hott, i want one too

  33. 33 Kate November 20, 2008 at 7:48 am

    i want it

  34. 34 kirara November 20, 2008 at 7:58 am

    Yes, the jacket is cute!

    I’m guessing that she probably kept that jacket because she also thought it was cute and it looked good on her.

  35. 35 haru November 20, 2008 at 8:06 am

    it’s really pretty. :) and she looks HOTT and SEXXY wearing it

  36. 36 rk November 20, 2008 at 8:08 am

    damn but i wonder if the jacket woulda sold out if it had been hideous. that would truly show how powerful she is. but the jacket is definitely cute, the only thing i liked about her outfit so im not surprised it sold out.

  37. 37 Ria November 20, 2008 at 8:43 am

    I wonder how much of it is Koreans liking to be homogeneous, and how much of it is Koreans thinking it was actually cute and wanting it for their wardrobes. MEH, WHO CARES. She rocked it!

  38. 38 Se7enFan November 20, 2008 at 8:55 am

    Thats gotta suck cause then that means everybody else has it now so its not cool anymore lmao!!!

  39. 39 suejinners November 20, 2008 at 8:56 am

    it’s from Dsquared’s FALL 2008 RTW not D & G

  40. 40 Rin November 20, 2008 at 9:56 am

    she’s an actual “star”. She has the aura and personality for it. it’s like She was born for it ;)
    Man, i want it now…

  41. 41 mekju November 20, 2008 at 11:30 am

    popseoul you really like hyori..
    always saying something good about her..

  42. 42 chuchu November 20, 2008 at 11:47 am

    She’s pretty in that outfit. Why do Koreans do that? Sometimes they seem like realllllll label hoes to me? And who the heck would want to be seen wearing a jacket that everyone else will now be wearing?

  43. 43 Korean Ajusshi November 20, 2008 at 12:34 pm

    Hyori should promote Korean brands more.

  44. 44 ^o^ November 20, 2008 at 12:36 pm

    hyroi didn’t baaamm! the clothes..
    korean netizens just want to keep up to date…

  46. 46 kagero November 20, 2008 at 2:15 pm

    Yeah the jacket is hella cute…but I’m not going go out and buy one just because she wore it! Geez talk about about a bunch easily influenced people…

    So not only are folks walking around Korean with the mushroom hair, now tons of Korean girls are walking around with tartan plaid jacket just to be like Hyori~

    Wow, she does have some true star power…amazing how she makes me the masses worship her like she’s some goddess…

  47. 47 Vamp Charisma November 20, 2008 at 2:40 pm

    I like the way Lee Hyori put the outfit together. It looks better than the model, even though they are rather similar. Props to her there. When I saw her wearing it, I definitely thought, where can I get one of those?! So yeah… I guess she does have that kind of effect.

  48. 48 S H A Y November 20, 2008 at 2:41 pm

    I want the jacket sooo bad.

    And I saw those black tights she wore at Charlotte Russe x)

  49. 49 j November 20, 2008 at 4:51 pm

    am i the only 1 who noticed that the blazer hyori’s wearing & the 1 the model’s wearing are not the same blazer???

  50. 50 tia.lovee November 20, 2008 at 5:12 pm

    lolx. the jacket’s not really my thing but she does look awesome in it ;]

  51. 51 Y8 November 20, 2008 at 6:56 pm

    BEAUTIFUL HYORI

  52. 52 djkim November 20, 2008 at 7:29 pm

    Hyori is still hot, but aged.

  53. 53 TomatoJuice November 20, 2008 at 8:52 pm

    wow.

  54. 54 ktie November 21, 2008 at 2:24 am

    Hyori looks HOT in it. She makes the jacket look gooood. That jacket would not have sold out if it was just seen on THAT model. The model makes it look so plain and boring. Hyori ROCKS in everything she wears :)

  55. 55 rachel November 21, 2008 at 2:33 am

    we live in a celebrity obsessed culture, whether it be here in the US or Korea. take a look at the Hills, tons of girls watch this show not only to see the semi-fake drama, but also what the girls are wearing.

    it’s not surprising to me… Hyori looks good in just about everything she wears. she’s like a walking mannequin…. haven’t any of you walked past a store and see an outfit you liked, and then tried to copy it or create your own variation (not necessarily from the same store)?

  56. 56 Jerk November 21, 2008 at 3:59 am

    it reminds of that blue plaid top she had on in a photoshoot before. cute but I’d like it better in blue/black.

  57. 57 Ari PArk November 21, 2008 at 12:21 pm

    awww there was a dsquared2 and Margiela sample sale yesterday and today… anyone live in NYC theres always 2 sample sales every year!!
    she looks cute in it! Hyori is pretty.

    this is random but apparently this parisan was like we odnt wear skinny jeans in paris we wear flared.
    what are you guys wearing from where you guys are???

  58. 58 Ari PArk November 21, 2008 at 12:22 pm

    oh yeah who doesn’t like designer brands come on i know everyone does….

  59. 59 myeongeun November 21, 2008 at 8:55 pm

    this shows how a star can influence the public…especially a big star like hyori. :)

  60. 60 Noodle November 22, 2008 at 1:26 am

    Reminds me of a line from a movie…
    “Everything he touches turns to sold.”
    This time, it’s a she.

  61. 61 agreed November 22, 2008 at 3:53 am

    Hyori totally rocks!

  62. 62 kellz November 22, 2008 at 7:58 am

    Hyori can pull off any look! She’s so hot!

  63. 63 J December 30, 2008 at 7:39 pm

    She looks better than the model LOL.
