ILLIT's Wonhee went to the Chanel show alone and Korean pages reacted like proud aunts

5cryingagainAm2026.10.06 17:49👁 1328💬 40♥ 41

ILLIT's Wonhee was invited to Chanel's show in Paris, and honestly the captions from Korean Instagram magazine pages are the best part. A fan collected them: "our baby Wonhee, I should have given birth to her," "when did you grow up enough to go to a Chanel show by yourself," "why are you such a grown woman," and my favorite, "the girl being co-raised by 50 million Koreans." m crying

The looks: a red and white striped ruffle dress, a navy jacket over a white top with jeans, a cream knit, and a striped knit with jeans. The Korean post loved the ponytail too. Everyone keeps saying she always had a baby image and suddenly looks so grown up. There was one grumpy comment saying the clothes didn't suit her, but it was outnumbered by a lot of "so pretty". The stripe dress is the one for me. Playful but still very Chanel. If it was your first solo fashion week, would you go baby-cute or grown-up?

My first fashion week I'd go grown-up and then trip on the stairs. Baby-cute is safer honestly

7Sebin2026.10.07

Both can be true. She's an adult and people can still feel protective. The captions read as affection, not a statement about her age

4Ola2026.10.07

who else from kpop was at the show?

7Haneul2026.10.06

co-raised by 50 million Koreans 😭 cutest caption ever

5Jules2026.10.06

The navy jacket with jeans is my favorite. That's the Chanel off-duty uniform done right

6Zeynep2026.10.06

The red stripe ruffle dress is perfect on her. Playful without looking like a costume

↳
5Jules2026.10.07

Agree. Ruffles can turn into a costume fast at a show like that. The stripes keep it grounded

5Jules2026.10.06

The navy jacket with jeans is my favorite. That's the Chanel off-duty uniform done right

5cryingagainOP2026.10.07

the off-duty one is so good too. I just can't get over the stripes

↳
6Zeynep2026.10.07

Navy jacket and jeans is also the look normal people can actually copy. Saved

7Haneul2026.10.06

co-raised by 50 million Koreans 😭 cutest caption ever

6Hajun2026.10.07

'I should have given birth to her' is a wild thing for a magazine page to write, and somehow very normal in Korean fan culture

↳
6Yoonseo2026.10.07

The Korean phrase for this vibe is 국민 여동생 (gungmin yeodongsaeng), 'the nation's little sister'. 50 million co-parents is the extreme version

6Ioana2026.10.06

Respectfully, she's an adult now. The baby talk is sweet but let her have the grown-up era

↳
5cryingagainOP2026.10.06

fair!! it's love, but yes, she earned the grown-up era

Let her have the grown-up era, but let the aunts have their moment too. They've been waiting years

5Fernanda_m2026.10.06

Whatever her skincare routine is, I want it

↳
6hazel_n_honey2026.10.07

Same. The lighting at these shows is brutal and she still looks fresh

5Aino2026.10.07

5kiwi_savage2026.10.07

Baby-cute for the first one. You only get one fashion week debut, go big

↳
5tiny.tigress2026.10.08

Go big at the debut, then go grown-up once they know your name. Correct strategy

6hanbyeol2026.10.07

Context: 우리 애기 (our baby) captions are really common from Korean pages for younger idols. Sounds intense in English but it's just affection

↳
6Lukas932026.10.07

Common is fine, but 'I should have given birth to her' from a magazine page is a lot even by fan standards

5tiny.tigress2026.10.07

Went alone and still looked like she brought an entourage

4Ola2026.10.07

who else from kpop was at the show?

↳
4Elif2026.10.07

same question, the post only showed her

↳
5cryingagainOP2026.10.07

I only saw her in the photos the fan collected, so I don't know who else went. if anyone has the full guest list drop it!!

5Noor2026.10.07

The grumpy comment exists so the rest of us can feel like better people

7Gaeun2026.10.07

The cream knit is the underrated one. Soft texture, simple ponytail, looks expensive without trying

↳
6Zeynep2026.10.07

The cream knit with the ponytail is the one I'd actually copy. The dress is for photos, the knit is for life

4emoji.only2026.10.07

🎀🍓

5Ayşe2026.10.07

She looks so happy in every photo. That's the best accessory

4Sofia2026.10.07

she looks so happy, congrats on the invite!!

7Dahye2026.10.07

Paris street plus the navy jacket and jeans look is so effortless. I'd wear that to a cafe tomorrow

5Valen2026.10.07

first solo fashion week and she looks this calm?? I'd be crying in the car

7Minjae2026.10.07

Going alone to your first big show and still looking calm is the most impressive part to me

5aaaahelsinki2026.10.07

*screams* the red and white stripes are SO good on her

↳
5Andrei2026.10.07

*screams* the stripes plus the ponytail is a whole summer in Paris

5Kasia2026.10.07

First solo fashion week: I'd go grown-up, panic, and end up wearing the striped knit for all three days

8Dabin2026.10.07

the ponytail!!! everyone talks about the dress but the ponytail is doing so much work

↳
6Zeynep2026.10.07

The ponytail keeps every look a little younger. Same outfits with hair down would read much older

5Valen2026.10.07

I'm crying at "when did you grow up enough to go by yourself", why do Korean magazine pages talk like moms
