According to reports from the red carpet, the idol appeared with his head covered in hundreds of small hair clips, creating an unconventional visual that immediately trended on social media. While some fans praised his "fashion game," others pointed out striking similarities to the iconic aesthetic of American rapper A$AP Rocky.
The controversy isn't just about fashion. Tarzzan has a history of facing accusations regarding cultural appropriation. Critics argue that his latest style continues a pattern of borrowing heavily from Black culture without proper acknowledgement, especially following a recent Instagram interaction where A$AP Rocky liked one of his posts on January 8.
Fan Reactions and Past Context
Supporters of the ALLDAY PROJECT member argue that his style is a form of self-expression. They highlight his previous appearances, such as at KCON 2025, as proof of his experimental nature. However, the backlash remains significant, with some netizens calling for the artist to "stop copying" and find a more original visual identity.
