“They Did Her So Dirty” — Legendary 1st Generation Idol Disappoints Netizens With Bad Makeup At Event

Lee Hyori is known as one of the most legendary idols to date. Her legacy stretches far beyond her Fin.K.L days.

She later left the group and gained fame as a soloist. One of her most famous songs is “U Go Girl,” a song still widely covered by many girl group members nowadays.

Even in 2023, she impressed with a sexy performance of her hit songs. She perfectly recreated the Y2K look, looking as young and as fresh as ever.

That was why many were hit with a wave of surprise when she pulled up to a Burberry event on October 6, looking very much aged compared to usual.

The star is 44-years-old this year, but she’s always been known for looking younger than she is. The grey-toned makeup and bleached brows were not a vibe for the star.

Paired with a chunky-looking knit dress and purple tartan tights, the look was hard to comprehend.

Lee Hyori proudly showed off the brand’s bag for the cameras.

Although she still looks beautiful, it is clearly not the best look for Lee Hyori.

• No matter how many times I look at it… Since it’s a Burberry event, I can understand that there’s limitations to the clothing she can wear. But the makeup…
• Wow… Her hair, makeup and styling team should come out right now.
• If you look closely, they did her makeup such that the area near her mouth is standing out in white. At that level, aren’t they her antis? It’s like the makeup my niece does for me.
• She looks like the owner of a secondhand store in the neighborhood… Unnie, please cut ties with your makeup salon.
• Are they crazy? Who did her hair, makeup and styling? They need to be fired right away. She can even ask for compensation for damage at that rate.
• Isn’t it a total disaster? Why is she holding the bag like that? Isn’t that bag leather? Is she consuming leather goods now?
• What’s up with her brows?
• Her hair, makeup and styling is legendarily weird… Why did they turn a pretty unnie into that?
• Her satisfied expression is weirder, LOL.

Lee Hyori was known for her veganism and vegetarian diet. Her endorsement of a leather bag comes as a surprise to many, in addition to her styling for that day.
