Choi Ye Na is drawing attention for taking a different approach to her Waterbomb Busan appearance while staying true to her signature solo image.
On August 8, the singer shared behind-the-scenes photos from the festival on her social media account. During the event, Choi Ye Na energized the crowd with her live performance and joined in the festival’s famous water-gun moments.
What especially caught attention was her stage outfit. Instead of changing her usual style for the summer festival, Choi Ye Na appeared in a full-cover, hero-inspired bodysuit that matched the colorful and playful concepts often seen throughout her solo career.
She completed the look with heavy bangs, a high ponytail, and futuristic sunglasses resembling goggles, creating an outfit that many viewers described as distinctly her own.
Netizens responded positively to the styling, with comments including, “I like that she stood out without relying on revealing clothes,” “It’s even better because she kept Choi Ye Na’s image,” and “I hope she continues promoting like this.”
Choi Ye Na first debuted as a member of IZ*ONE before establishing herself as a solo artist. She has continued to build her own colorful musical identity, including her 2026 release Catch Catch.
