Netizens have left scathing comments.
HYBE girl group ILLIT is yet again facing merciless criticism on social media over one of their group photoshoots.

The photoshoot in question is originally from 2024, when all five members of the group featured in the Acne Studios Spring/Summer 2024 campaign.

The group shot from the campaign recently resurfaced on X(formerly, Twitter) through a post that claimed that the ILLIT members had “no aura at all.”

The post, which has since garnered nearly half a million views, has become a source of scathing criticism for the ILLIT members’ supposed lack of star quality.
wonhee and her friends have no star quality at all😭and mind you BSH said star quality is more important than actual skills for him and still this is how he chose idols btw😭

However, fans fiercely defended the girls, pointing out that if a 2024 photoshoot was relevant enough to be brought up two years later, then that itself spoke magnitudes about ILLIT’s star power.
