TWICE is back in the spotlight with the teaser for their upcoming fourth album “FOUR”—but not everyone’s clapping. The short video, just 13 seconds long, has sparked online buzz for allegedly copying BLACKPINK’s Jennie, specifically her look from “ZEN.” While ONCEs (TWICE’s fandom) were hyped to see the girls serving royal blue with fierce energy, some netizens were busy drawing comparisons instead.
In the teaser, TWICE members wear coordinated blue miniskirts and cropped tops, complete with high heels and the word “FOUR” printed across their outfits. But the internet was quick to point out the similarities to Jennie’s fierce “ZEN” look, drawing parallels with the color palette, silhouette, and attitude. According to some, the resemblance is too evident!

Some critics didn’t stay quiet, calling the teaser “uninspired” and saying it lacked TWICE’s usual originality. Comments like “everyone wants to be like Jennie” and “Your AI couldn’t copy” were all over social media. Even the instrumental was scrutinized for allegedly having BLACKPINK’s sonic vibe. It’s safe to say, the teaser stirred up more than just excitement between fandoms; it sparked a fan war.
But fans are also coming to TWICE’s defense, pointing out that fashion and styling in K-pop often follow overlapping trends. With “FOUR” marking their first full-length album since 2021’s “Formula of Love,” expectations are sky-high. The album will reportedly be released this July, making it the perfect summer bops collection.
After all this time, TWICE still knows how to command attention!
You're just comparing blue skirts btw. BY THAT LOGIC
