On July 6, Hwang Hee Chan attended a photo call event to commemorate the Gucci 2023 F/W Men’s Collection launch at the Gucci store in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. He appeared in a camel-colored coat with a low-neck white top tucked inside a pair of dark blue denim jeans. He layered silver necklaces for accessories and carried a large Gucci bag with its signature pattern.

Netizens were shocked when they saw his outfit because of one natural factor: the weather. According to various news reports, the lows were 23°C and the highs were 31°C (73.1°F and 87.8°F respectively).

The weather in Seoul has been hot and humid lately, which meant that people were wearing light summer clothes and bringing around portable fans this day. Hwang Hee Chan, however, was wearing a coat suitable for the fall and winter. This led netizens to comment about his fashion choices—or perhaps his stylist’s choices.
