Seriously men wear that since generations and than boom a KPop-idol wears them and everyone freaks out and gets a random fear from it ... why?
I remember my ultigroup wore them at their debut and sadly cause of it people tried to dislike them for no reason It took them 2 years till people stoped disliking the group because people had bad prejudices against them just cause they debuted in hotpants
YG once said "Why do grown up men even wear hotpants?" and that fucker put WINNER in shorts for an MV just some weeks before he asked this dumb question
