On November 11, the YouTube channel MMTG uploaded a Shorts video titled “Ju Ji Hoon’s Costume Controversy (?)”.
Host JaeJae brought up Ju Ji Hoon’s outfits in The Remarried Empress, asking, “I heard you wondered whether the clothes you were wearing were really appropriate.”
In response, Ju Ji Hoon confessed, “Every time I come out wearing one of the prepared outfits, I wonder whether this is actually possible and whether it’s okay for it to be this sheer. Where exactly is the line for an emperor’s dignity? Is it the solar plexus or the belly button?” JaeJae reacted with surprise, saying, “It was cut so low that it reached your belly button,” before asking about the standards for the costumes: “When is it the solar plexus, and when is it the belly button?”
Ju Ji Hoon jokingly explained, “For private, at-home clothing, the neckline goes below the solar plexus. For official occasions, it comes up above the solar plexus.”
The recently released Disney+ original series The Remarried Empress reportedly had a production budget worth tens of billions of won, raising expectations even before its premiere. However, shortly after its release, the series became the center of controversy over the perceived poor quality of its costumes and props. In particular, Ju Ji Hoon’s outfits as the emperor have drawn harsh criticism, with some viewers comparing his look to that of a trot singer or a performer on the TV show Surprise, arguing that the costumes make it difficult to stay immersed in the story.
