NewJeans’ Haerin Gains Attention For Looking Like Junji Ito’s Tomie

NewJeans recently attended an event at The Hyundai Seoul to promote the Hyundai Duty-Free Department Store. All the girls of NewJeans looked gorgeous in winter-themed outfits. They were dressed in black outfits with small white or metallic accents, posing in front of the department store’s Christmas pop-up.

Haerin gained attention in particular for her styling. With blunt bangs and her wide-catlike eyes, netizens compared her to a beloved manga character, Junji Ito‘s Tomie.

The dress also suited Tomie’s gothic mood.

With her sleek hair and natural makeup, Haerin looked like she popped out of a manga.

She expertly posed in front of the photo wall.

We love age-appropriately she is dressed!

She could probably also pass off as a cast member in Wednesday!

The grey contact lens accentuate her catlike features even more.

Netizens couldn’t get enough of her look. Multiple comments compared her to Tomie.

• Wow, she looks like Tomie.
• At first, I thought she was just a unique and trendy type of face, but when she puts all her hair pack, she’s a straight-up beauty. One in a thousand.
• It’s like the real-life version of Tomie.
• This is seriously insane.

It’s not just the similar hairstyle and black outfit. Haerin’s wide, almond-shaped eyes and sharp chin totally bring Tomie to mind!
