Song Ji A Appearance in Knowing Bros

One person who has been catching attention since she stepped on the island is social media influencer Song Ji A or known as Free Zia. Her ‘Ice Princess’ vibes and stunning visuals made her one of the most famous women on the island. Netizens even compared Song Ji A to BLACKPINK Jennie and IVE Wonyoung.

With her rising fame, Song Ji A made an appearance as a guest in Knowing Bros. As per tradition, all the guests must wear school uniforms.

Song Ji A decided to personalize the school uniform to show off her stunning proportions. Alongside the statement blazer that all guests wear, Ji A wore a cropped shirt, a cute bow, an above-the-knee grey skirt, and black boots.

The personalized uniform Song Ji A worn to Knowing Bros effortlessly showed off her long legs and toned abs, as we all could see on Single’s Inferno.

International vs. Korean Netizens

As an influencer, netizens have expected her to be different -stylish and modern. International netizens loved her for being stunning in the personalized school uniform. Under the video on YouTube, International fans praised her:

“She is so cute. International fans love you, Song Ji A.”
“She’s so beautiful and amazing.”
“She’s really like an idol. But I am really glad that she is a YouTuber because she basically have freedom to do anything she likes and to share any contents she likes being in an agency sucks at some point.”

However, some Korean netizens shared very different views. Despite how stunning Song Ji A looked, Korean netizens criticized her interpretation of the classic school uniform.

“It would have been fine had she worn an outfit that is designed to be revealing. She would have gotten complimented on it. But she cropped a ‘school uniform,’ which is why people are criticizing her for it. Ji A may have considered it just another outfit, but please know that such an outfit only harms the actual students who have to wear the uniforms.”
“A school uniform is usually meant for minors to wear. So… it isn’t the greatest idea to alter it in a sexual way.”

Personalizing school uniforms is common

Although it’s pretty common in the Korean entertainment industry to personalize school uniforms, some netizens thought what Song Ji A did was a step too far. Uniforms are worn by minors or students who are still at school. Therefore, Korean netizens raised awareness on How Ji A’s version of the school uniform promoted a ‘sexualized’ version of students.

As of writing, there is no statement from Song Ji A regarding this debate among netizens. However, in the Knowing Bros ep.316 preview, Song Ji A looked effortlessly stunning without wearing the school uniform.
