(G)I-DLE apologizes controversial stage of Red Cross costume

(G)I-DLE apologized for using the red cross logo carelessly in creating stage costumes.

They used the red cross logo to create the feeling of a sea lifeguard.

(G)I-DLE's Agency says,

"The controversy arose Friday when (G)I-DLE performed its new summer song "Klaxon" on KBS' Music Bank. During the performance, the members wore stage costumes emblazoned with the official Red Cross emblem, leading to criticism for the unauthorized use of the symbol."

They were briefly criticized, but their incredibly quick response earned them public acceptance.

According to Article 25 of the Organization of the Republic of Korea National Red Cross Act, the use of the Red Cross emblem is strictly prohibited for any person or organization that is not the Red Cross or has not obtained approval from a military medical institution or the Red Cross itself.

I'm glad they apologized quickly.

I hope (G)I-DLE doesn't have any more costume issues.👍
