[teens stories/enter-talk] THIS OUTFIT WORN BY FREEZIA WAS ALSO FAKE

  • (T/n: Singles Inferno's Freezia/Song Jia is currently getting into some kind of controversy because netizens have discovered that she was wearing fakes/replicas of designer outfits)

    Even aside from her Dior top, she wore another fake Chanel top on Singles Inferno

    The last picture is the real one being worn by Jennie
    My mom works in the fashion industry and she knows a lot about luxury items and she can tell that the logo and colors are definitely different.
    I feel like she needs to give some kind of explanation. I feel like someone like her who wants to make her own clothing line shouldn't be wearing fakes on public broadcasts...


    (T/N: the Dior top for reference - it costs around 16,000 won)

    + Other fakes she worn

    image.png
    This top can be found on the online shopping mall 'ㅅㅇㅌㄱㄹ', they sell the cardigan with the exact Chanel pattern



    image.png


    This one was worn by Jennie and it's from Chanel S21 season, you can tell that the details and buttons are different.


    image.png
    This one was worn by Freezia when she went to Paradise and you can tell right away that it's Marine Serre. But no matter where you look for this one dress, you won't be able to find it on Marine Serre's official website, nor Farfetch.

    Turns out, it's around 20,000 won and it's from a Chinese website.

    image.png
    I feel like she clearly deserves criticism for this. It's possible that she wears these without knowing but Freezia has always had a lot of interest in luxury brands so I hope she gives an explanation as to why she's wearing things that she clearly knows are fakes.


    + For the kids who say that the Chanel one isn't fake
    image.png


    image.png
    This top has a thick logo... If you don't believe me, just Google 'Chanel knit top' and compare it yourself. Also, this item is super hard to purchase to start with.

    You guys are saying that Freezia's logo is stretched but how can it stretch that thin? If anything, the logo should stretch out wider so it can't get thinner.

    She changed her name, faked her golden spoon concept, her apartment in Trimage is owned by her company and she's currently preparing to become a celebrity under that company (T/N: Trimage is a luxury apartment complex - BTS Jungkook used to own an unit there)
    image.png
    (In order to become an influencer, she changed her common name (Hyunji(?)), at first, she was wearing fake designer clothing and if you look at her parents' house, it's extremely average. Because her YT started to get traction, her company rented out an apartment in Trimage (she's not a commoner, she's doing YouTube with a "golden spoon" concept given to her by her company). She said that her dad's job is being a dentist but it's fake. Her shinyeos (T/N: slave - derogatory term for fans) and living through her golden spoon lifestyle but her channel seems to be operating exclusively for Chinese people.)


    2. [+430, -163]
    Hul daebak, this is seriously fascinating. How can she wear fakes on broadcast?? She's a bit ignorant


    3. [+375, -10]
    Looking at the comments here, looks like it's fine to wear fakes around ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ


    4. [+375, -10]
    Wow OP's discerning eye for luxury goods are impressive ㅋㅋㅋㅋ


    5. [+261, -5]
    I'm shocked that she's wearing fakes.. But I'm more shocked that she already had a company even before starting her YT channel. I thought that she was a complete commoner. But she's a made up celebrity


    6. [+260, -4]
    Facts
    image.png
    (She was in the department of Vocal Music at the Busan High School of Arts and her household is extremely average. Everyone thinks that because she's in arts, her family must be rich but when it comes to the finances for attending the Busan High School of Arts, you could do it with a bit of a burden even if you are in the middle class (school fees, lesson fees, school bus fees if you live far, recruitment fees for performances, etc.). I find it f*cking hilarious when kids who don't know anything go "art department.. wow..", so I'm leaving this comment)

    7. [+257, -2]
    I don't think that people realize why it's problematic to wear fakes on broadcast or on YouTube. For real, there are so many kids who clearly are wearing fakes on Insta and who do it with confidence ㅜㅜㅋㅋ Seriously, when I watched Freezia on Solo Inferno, I thought that everything she was wearing were real although I was dubious of her Dior top..




    [teens stories] BUT THE FACT THAT FREEZIA IS PAYING RENT...



    Why is it considered a controversy..? You could tell right away that she was living on rent. Also, you still need to be somewhat rich to be able to afford rent no?? I don't know much about houses so I could be wrong

    Apparently, her company was the one who bought her Trimage apartmentㅋㅋㅋ Even big companies wouldn't do that for you. Looks like the dumb kids who believe this are all gathered hereㅋㅋㅋㅋ She should sue people for false information


    2. [+124, -42]
    Her shinyeos are living through her saying that she bought a Trimage apartment in her 20's and are fangirling on her. But turns out, it's all her company's money and it was all a concept. That's why it's problematic. Because it's an image made by a lie


    3. [+121, -105]
    ㅇㅇ she earned all of this from the golden spoon concept that her company made for her. Before that, the house that her parents gave her was an average one-room apartment


    4. [+80, -4]
    The deposit for a Trimage apartment is in the hundred million wons and with the rent, it's over 200-300 million won. Her company isn't even a big company but a mid-sized one. Do you really think that they'd do that for her?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ


    5. [+29, 0]
    But where did you find that her company bought it for her? Is it really the truth? I'm asking out of curiosity. Then, those are just made up rumors without proofs. Seeing how people are hating on her for changing her name is the most hilarious thing. What is there to hate about?...


    6. [+52, 0]
    Even SM wouldn't buy Trimage for you, f*ckㅋㅋㅋ.. Are the trolls here? You must be so excited




    [enter-talk] IS FREEZIA'S CROP TOP REALLY FAKE?
    image.png


    image.png
    The mint crop top that Jennie popularized was only sold in France up to 1999 and they said that they don't produce it anymore now? Jennie said herself that she inherited it from her mom so where did Freezia get hers? Is it fake?

    The mint top that Jennie is wearing was bought in a vintage shop in Japan and she said that the inner piece that she was wearing at a Chanel event was her mom's clothes. I don't know why people are distorting what she said. (T/N: Chanel "inner piece" for reference)
    image.png


    2. [+178, -23]
    Wow but Jennie's mom's fashion sense... I'm so jealous


    3. [+170, -3]
    ㅇㅇ after Jennie wore that top, it was sold a lot on A-bly (T/N: Korean version of Yesstyle/Shein)


    4. [+ 148, -2]
    You didn't know if was fake? People flocked her Insta with comments when she took that picture back then. Also, you can tell right away that it's not real Chanel


    5. [+144, -5]
    I bet that Freezia references her style a lot from Jennie


    6. [+118, -3]
    If you go in the Teens stories section, they are cursing at her saying that she's pretending to be rich while wearing fakes. But I'm surprised that there are even more people shielding her

  • Two things.


    1. The hyenas have smelled blood and started to attack.

    2. Damn, no wonder Freezia was giving me Jennie vibes!? :cryingr:


    At first, I was thinking..."Jia, that was dumb of you to wear fakes on television. But also, who takes the time to pick apart what brand someone is wearing and go back to check, lmao!?"


    But then, I read how her parents probably sacrificed to put her through her art program in high school and felt really bad. Jia, HWAITING!

  • Okay a couple things.

    1) Did she herself state that she brought the house or was that just an assumption? If it was just an assumption, I don't know why she's getting the hate.

    2) So she changed her name. Don't get the drama

    3) The one thing I will agree with is the fakes. Designers work very hard to create their products and it's not fair to buy them for cheap just to show them off. And also to show off your fakes as if they're real and allude that she's from a rich family is just not right. I personally don't understand the point of showing of designer stuff, it just feels snobby and something teenagers to get attention and show that they're better than something. When I was in high school everyone had designer handbags and fancy shoes and dressed nicely. When I got to college everyone was wearing sweats to class even though they had some nice cars (I know my previous roommate had a 2019 audi a3 or something). Like, welcome to the adult world. Nobody cares if you're rich or not apart from kpop stans apparently. Like bragging that their parents had money makes no sense. It is in now way the idols achievement that they were born into a wealthy family.

    If I say anything incorrect please correct me and I will edit my comment accordingly. I'm also very sarcastic so please don't take anything I say to heart.

    I know that's instagram but didn't think the actual kpop fans were like that. Kpop is about music right? Or maybe I'm staying in my own bubble. I really only cared about tvxq, shinee, and bts but their fandoms seem to be about the music for the most part. I did follow BP and while their brand endorsements are rich image was definitely huge, fans were most upset that BP didn't release music and were clowned for it (note: I did really only follow peaceful ot4 people since solos and blonks were just a mess).

    i mean, for me yeah i cant really stan if i dont like the music, although I can appreciate a lot of appearances

    but that's not the point either

    the fact that people ( including kpop fans ) can give so much power over their lives to people just for their appearance ( and not even beauty; its more like expensive makeup and clothing and fancy lifestyles ) is a scary though. One would think the term "influencers" would be for great philosophers or something

    you can follow someone's IG if you like their pictures of course, just as you should support a kpop group if you like their music

    but to let them "influence" you on a personal level is ehhhhhhh

  • I don’t think that’s the last we’re gonna hear about her.

    People don’t like fakes.

    I don’t like her either, never did.


    But.


    That being said - I feel awful for her regardless. She didn’t hurt anybody, just trying to make a living.

    And the amount of hate is ridi. Come on.


    Yes she should apologize bc now she is a star with over 3 mil ig followers.


    But that’s it!

    What year do u think u live in exactly ?

  • Well, well, well, why is everyone so shocked? Most of the so-called influencers are actually poor, usually with a very small income (if not jobless). Most of them just create an illusion that they are rich and can afford everything, have amazing looks, and are very popular. In reality, they ask for free stuff in exchange for "advertisement on their social media account", use filters, and aren't popular outside of their little page. There are some influencers in my country that can't even pay their bills, and every time they "buy" something they have to tag someone to "thank" them. Some go into debt to buy luxury things.

    Be careful who are you following and with who are you comparing yourself, because the ones that you admire might pose next to some empty bags.


    Faking your entire life is really sad. I noticed that there is a quite big difference between her insta pics and how she actually looks, which is even sadder that she edit her pics even tho she is really beautiful even without adjustments. I guess this wave of hate is because she appears more and more in the media and people might think that she is someone who should be admired by teenagers, even tho she didn't prove anything.

  • am I the only one who think it's so smart of her? I mean... the price of a shirt is like $2000? LOL why would anyone spend that much money on clothes? It's so ridiculous.


    also, those comments from knetizens, lmao, that's rich coming from Koreans, seeing how Korea has one of the HIGHEST import of replicas.

    and fuck these expensive af brands which have some boring crop top priced higher than actual usual stuff like refrigerators and washing machine.. these brands are scamming you all and tearing apart your wallets over average quality cloth with meh designs no one would give fuck about if not for the brand name

    Honestly Korea crying for this brand that aren't even their own it's so funny to me, they don't eat to own a real channel wallet that cost $2k

    A large number of Korean women end up using more than half of their salaries to own these luxury over-hyped brands... most of their sales actually come from northeast asian countries right now cause these people are so obsessed with showing off.. I am all for good brands but some of these whol outfits can but a whole car do people really think it's reasonable to spend money on these.. there is so much else to get and do in this world than throw an insane amount of money on some of these brands...

    I second this.


    Also my timeline is filled with actors and artists who get a free present from Prada or whoever, take a pic and tag them on ig.


    Like wtf don’t you even write that its an advert?


    Like some celebs are worse than others but it’s clear who got a LV watch or that ugly triangle prada bag cause your tl is only that.

    I unfollow.

  • 1. She never said she comes from a rich family. She said in a video something among the lines of her parents being middle class. She never pretended that she grew up rich.


    2. Wearing fake brands on Tv is far from being a good idea.


    3. As an influencer who has a luxurious image, wants to develop her own brand and focus on fashion, wearing fake designers without telling her audience will only make her seem like a liar and brands probably wouldn't want to work with her.


    4. The fact that she feels the need to wear (fake) luxurious brands is sad. You dont need to spend a huge amount of money on designer clothes but you also dont need to wear fake designer clothes... The design of every top she wore is common and she can find them in several stores, the only reason she would buy a fake is for the logo. But why ?


    5. Even if wearing fake brands is kinda wrong, especially for an influencer, sending her hate for that is unacceptable.

  • Pretty much this. Image is everything in the fashion business. Especially when you're first starting out.


    What luxury brand is going to sponsor you now that you've been advertising fakes on television?


    I don't see the problem with her wearing fakes on YouTube. I don't think it's illegal? Some YouTubers even make their whole careers based on showing people how to copy luxury looks.


    In the end, I see no problem with her company creating this luxurious image OR her wearing some fakes, but wearing it on national tv is kind of dumb lol. Though, knowing K-netz they would have just scoured her YouTube anyway and still called her out.

  • i have mixed feelings on knock off designer goods. yeah, luxury brands are very overpriced, but why even feed into that culture if you can't afford it or try to pass yourself off as someone you're not for image sakes. im sure she feels more embarrassed now than she would have just wearing outfits inspired by the designer clothes rather than knock offs. this definitely isn't as controversial as knets want it to be tho lol.

  • im actually amazed how some of you can accept buying coutnerfeit /replica. That's basically violatinf intellectual property rights and is illegal. Supporting that is like supporting illegal downloads of movie and music. Puttinh yourself in those designer / artists shoe, what would you think if fake items of yours is being sold?


    It is also super contradicting from some of you. on one hand, you all hate the luxury brands and wouldnt want to suppor them, and on the other hand u support (not condemning) buying fake luxury brands to make you feel good / appear luxurious.

    yeah K-pop and all pop really is all about image. I mean from personality to style everything is planned.


    Feezia’s image was purposefully crafter the be rich and unattainable, so when ppl catch that it’s fake it makes them angry ig. I remember when that rapper faked having a private jet or whatever and ppl clowned him forever. Same thing ig,

  • Why are u pressed over people owning luxury branded items though? Those people could earn the money and afford them. It is really none of your business to be honest. They never forced u to buy and their target market has always been those that are able to afford them.


    Problem arises when people who could not afford them, tried hard to land their hand on them just to feel good / show off. Problem is the mindset of those people, dont blame it on the brand

  • the comments are very elitist haha :pepestare: i don't even buy the don't buy fakes rhetoric like she bought fakes of BIG ASS brands not some local independent small brands, chanel won't go bankrupt over a youtuber wearing fakes :pepefacepalm:

    It’s just stupid to wear branded fakes, like theyr are not just inspired items but items that had the fashion brands logos. Honestly freezia is probably the farthest from fuck capitalism and fashion elitism given she purposely bought fast fashion replicas of brand item, not to mention her YouTube channel is centers around beauty and clothing content.


    Also who’s complaining about the brands going bankrupt lol

    Interestingly I remember watching a video about how south Korean’s debt has ballooned since the 90s. Basically a majority of people are in debt. They even interviewed some young Koreans and found that a lot of them splurged on branded goods to fit in and show off. Like some of them were working retail but taking it loans to buy luxury goods sigh.

    I'm not disagreeing with you but think realistically. Are you saying you never went to an illegal site to watch a movie online or something? It's bad if you promote it but I can't pay $3 for every movie I want to watch. I have Netflix, CBS, and Disney+, but I still can't find all the shows and movies I want to watch. Same thing with designer products. It's fine if you want to look a bit fancy and wear it out if you can't afford it, but wearing it on television or making a fake haul staying that you got designer clothes is not it. I'm not defending her or something, but I think we should be a bit more realistic. I like to support artists when I can and stream on spotify and buy songs on itunes and also get the streaming services I can afford, but every now and then I do watch things illegally. I think BTS spoke about this and told a fan not to feel bad for illegally streaming their concert. They know their fans will support them when they can but I think they're fine with fans watching things illegally if they can't afford it. At the end of the day you wouldn't be buying fakes if you can afford the real thing. I'm in college now so I don't care too much about things like this anymore but I remember in high school I begged my mom a coach bag and she said no so I got a dupe. Once I graduated high school I got the real thing for a graduation gift. When you're young you care a lot about branded items and stuff even though as you grow up you outgrow it (at least I hope).

    If I say anything incorrect please correct me and I will edit my comment accordingly. I'm also very sarcastic so please don't take anything I say to heart.

  • Exactly. At the end someone's work is being ripped off and people r justifying it just because it's expensive. Go wear zara if u can't afford instead of fakes. You can look stylish even without designer items. If i was dior i would never again work with this girl. It's what it is. Or any other luxury brand. She was sponsored by dior for a perfume post on insta and guess what she added a fake dior bag in a dior sponsored post.

  • im actually amazed how some of you can accept buying coutnerfeit /replica. That's basically violatinf intellectual property rights and is illegal. Supporting that is like supporting illegal downloads of movie and music. Puttinh yourself in those designer / artists shoe, what would you think if fake items of yours is being sold?


    It is also super contradicting from some of you. on one hand, you all hate the luxury brands and wouldnt want to suppor them, and on the other hand u support (not condemning) buying fake luxury brands to make you feel good / appear luxurious. Like, if you cannot afford the luxury brands, just go for whatever brand that is affordable to you. You dont need to buy into that luxury brand name

    No I don’t feel any remorse esp not movies and music lol :pepepizza:


    I might feel something for independent artists or creators but nope. Absolutely no remorse for blockbuster movies and designer brands :pepepizza:


    I support when I can because it’s easier to get things legally but I have no holier than thou stance on illegal consumption :pepepizza:


  • Why are u pressed over people owning luxury branded items though? Those people could earn the money and afford them. It is really none of your business to be honest. They never forced u to buy and their target market has always been those that are able to afford them.


    Problem arises when people who could not afford them, tried hard to land their hand on them just to feel good / show off. Problem is the mindset of those people, dont blame it on the brand

    right

  • Interestingly I remember watching a video about how south Korean’s debt has ballooned since the 90s. Basically a majority of people are in debt. They even interviewed some young Koreans and found that a lot of them splurged on branded goods to fit in and show off. Like some of them were working retail but taking it loans to buy luxury goods sigh.

    that's just really sad. I mean, has anyone actually felt what a Chanel or Dior bag feels like? I did because I was thinking of buying one, but changed my mind after checking them out in person. Honestly the quality is shit, the only good thing about these bags is that you can show off on IG, that's it. $4000 for showing off and a few likes. And people go into debt for that???????? Wow priorities. My 8 year old Kate Spade that I bought on 40% sale that I never babied and gets tossed around has better quality than these luxury brands. I say fk the mean k-netizens. This girl should be applauded for being smart with her money.

    I was thinking the same thing.


    Like, materials can only be so good in quality. Full grain leather is full grain leather. Leather is expensive so you should expect to pay a lot, but if this leather craftsman is charging $1000 for a a hand stitched purse...why am I paying Chanel $10,000 for the same thing? Especially when they just recycle the same styles. It used to be name brand was associated with quality. Now, it just means money and clout.

    "name brand was associated with quality" oof... oh boy.... I think people are in for a surprise.

    Has no one wondered why Covid first spread in MILAN of all the places (when it traveled to EU)? Because of the fashion industry!!! Milan has the biggest population of Chinese factory workers working on... you guess it, luxury goods! (Prato is second biggest). Covid started spreading in February because Luna New Years was before that! Works flew to Chines to be with their families and flew back to work after carrying the virus with them (unknowingly of course, no one ever wants to be sick intentionally). All these "your luxury bag was hand crafted in Italy" thing is so bullshit. They source materials from China, used Chinese immigrant workers in Italy, use machines to do the majority of the stitching, then get the last bit assembled by hand and call this Italian craftsmanship LMAO. And people eat this up.

    So honestly, Jia prob got her bag made with the same material from the same factory that provide Prada or Chanel, and just got her bags assembled from Chinese in China instead of Italy. Girl has nothing to apologise for. The luxury industry should apologise to consumers for lying to us.

    We're better off going with actual small family artisans, and there are tons just doing their craft earning a living and they're the ones we should be supporting, not LVMH.

    Really? Wow. Chanel said all their bags are made in France. Doesn't mean they don't use Chinese labor through.


    But yeah, they are charging 10 times what legit leather craftsman are charging. For what?
