The Asia Fashion Culture Market's ‘FASHION KODE 2025 S/S’ event took place on the afternoon of October 18 at The Platz Exhibition Hall in Coex, Gangnam, Seoul. Among the attendees was After School’s Lizzy, who posed for photos at the photo wall before the event.

However, her appearance quickly became a hot topic among netizens, with many saying she looks unrecognizable. Several online comments reflected a mix of confusion and criticism about her new look.

Comments include:

"It's not that she’s become unrecognizably prettier, I just can’t recognize her... Who are you?"

"Hwang Jung Eum?"

"Where did you crawl out from...?"

"A potential murderer with a DUI."

"It's unfortunate that she suppressed her individuality and made herself look so plain and colorless... but it's her choice."

"Somewhere between Hwang Jung Eum and Gabee..."

"Why did she mess up her cute face like that? She turned into a typical 'plastic surgery monster.'"

"After a DUI... she's got some nerve, huh? LOL."

"It's not Lizzy, it’s (Lee Jung Eum)."

"What’s going on? She looks like a completely different person. I thought it was Ye Won."

"Lizzy probably wants a new life after her DUI by changing her face... That’s her wish."

"Her once unique look has turned into a plastic surgery face. She looks older now. Maybe she was stressed about her cute appearance. She’s been slowly getting plastic surgery during her hiatus, but it backfired and made her look more mature."

"She’s gotten rid of her natural charm."
