🔥wait their hair is BRAIDED TOGETHER

ok so aespa's season's greetings photos dropped and everyone is screaming about the visuals which yes fair but nobody is talking about the actual best part zoom into the first photo. the two of them are leaning on each other and their hair is braided into ONE braid. like literally tied together. whoever had that idea deserves a raise

the rest of the set is all white lace and ribbons and soft daylight, very old school innocent concept, kind of a 180 from the usual cyber stuff. the korean comments were basically "the person who tied their hair together is crazy" and "me, I'm buying it" and that's exactly where i am too

i'm not even a my and i'm getting this calendar

Ribbons and lace after two years of chrome. Feels like the stylist finally got a day off and spent it at a flower shop

7Haneul2026.10.10

ninety seconds 😭 and then a stylist crawls in with scissors ✂️

7Soomin2026.10.10

Standing near furniture is a valid concept. I've owned calendars where month nine was just a chair.

7Soomin2026.10.10

These sets usually come with more than just a calendar, so check what's in the box before you pre-order. Diary or photocards would change the price math

7Soomin2026.10.10

If it's a hostage situation the ransom note is a calendar and I'm already paying it

7Gaeun2026.10.10

The braid is such a good styling choice. Also the lace layering on the white set, someone in that team knows exactly what they're doing

the braid 😭😭 friendship goals but make it a hairstyle ✨

7Dahye2026.10.10

"friendship goals but make it a hairstyle" is a great line, I'm stealing it for my group chat

7Geonwoo2026.10.10

Waiting for the behind clip where they try to stand up separately

↳
8DabinOP2026.10.10

LMAOOO one of them goes to get water and the other one just gets dragged

↳
7Minjae2026.10.10

Nobody's talking about the sleeping part. One of them rolls over at 3am and the other wakes up in a different time zone

7Soomin2026.10.10

I'm not a fan but I'd hang this in my kitchen

↳
7Gaeun2026.10.10

Kitchen is the right room. It has a 'we baked this together' feel.

↳
7Nari2026.10.10

I'm not a fan either and I'm already picking a wall in my Busan apartment for it. It'd be the one next to the fridge

8Taeho2026.10.10

Cyber to soft lace is a classic reset when an era has run long, and one shared braid gives fans a single image to pass around. It works because it looks slightly impractical.

↳
7Gaeun2026.10.10

'Slightly impractical' is doing a lot of work there. Pretty, photographs well, lasts ninety seconds before someone needs the bathroom

7Minjae2026.10.10

Not an aespa fan but I buy every calendar any group puts out, and the shared braid is a better reason than most of mine

7Geonwoo2026.10.10

Counterpoint: the braid is a hostage situation. Blink twice if you need scissors

↳
7Haneul2026.10.10

blink twice 😭 the other one is blinking in morse ✨

7Nari2026.10.10

A shared braid means nobody can storm out of a room mid-argument. Honestly the healthiest concept photo this year

↳
7Soomin2026.10.10

Unless one of them is a door slammer, then it's just two people storming out in perfect sync.

7Dahye2026.10.10

As a teacher, this is the first group project photo where I believe they actually worked together.

↳
7Haneul2026.10.10

first group project where nobody can say they did it alone 😭 literally tied to the grade

7Junseo2026.10.10

일심동체 (one body, one mind) is the phrase that comes to mind, and this time it's literal lol

8Taeho2026.10.10

Real question is who had to brush that out afterwards. That's the unglamorous half of this concept and nobody gets a photocard of it.

↳
7Gaeun2026.10.10

Brushing that out takes half an hour minimum, and whoever holds the knot loses. Ask anyone who had long hair at school.

↳
7Minjae2026.10.11

Hair team deserves a credit line. Nobody cheers for the person with the detangling spray.

7Minjae2026.10.10

From the calendar buying side: the braid is the cover and the other eleven months are them standing near furniture. Still buying.

7Geonwoo2026.10.10

Next season's greetings: a three-legged race. Then one sweater with four sleeves. I give it two comebacks.

↳
7Minjae2026.10.11

I'd buy the three-legged race edition and the sack race one the year after. Collectors need a long runway.

↳
7Haneul2026.10.11

a sweater with four sleeves is already a christmas concept i would buy ✨🧶

7Dahye2026.10.11

My students do friendship bracelets. Nobody has ever committed to the braid.

↳
7Haneul2026.10.11

friendship bracelets are for beginners, the braid is the final boss of friendship 😭✨

↳
7Gaeun2026.10.11

Teachers see friendship bracelets daily so they're the best judges here. A bracelet comes off, a braid needs commitment and a scissors budget.

7Soomin2026.10.11

Tied together is also the only way to get two people to agree on what to eat for dinner.

7Gaeun2026.10.11

Pretty, yes, but I suspect the braid is carrying the whole photo. Take it away and it's two people leaning on a wall in lace.

↳
7Haneul2026.10.11

two people leaning on a wall in lace is still a better calendar than half the ones I own 😭 the braid is just the bonus ✨
