Said to be the epitome of mirror selfies that make you look taller... What is the styling choice for the puff-sleeved leather jacket selected by actress Kang Mi-na, who transformed into a goddess?

Said to be the epitome of mirror selfies that make you look taller... What is the styling choice for the puff-sleeved leather jacket selected by actress Kang Mi-na, who transformed into a goddess?

This is Kang Mina, who caught attention with her waacking on Produce 101 and even shed tears the moment her debut was confirmed. She has been active as an actress after going through I.O.I and Gugudan, and even received the Best New Female Artist award at the APAN STAR AWARDS for ‘Welcome to Samdalli’.

Looking at the fashion she has shown recently, it stands out that she dresses much more naturally than before. In particular, this look, which paired a leather jacket with a simple inner top and pants, made her overall proportions look much better thanks to the jacket length and the fit of the bottoms. It caught my eye even more because the styling brought out the unique vibe of leather without looking overly dressed up. I took a closer look at the specific points that highlighted Kang Mina's proportions in this look.

This year, you continued your acting career through Netflix's 'Girigo' and tvN's 'Go to Work!'. Today, I’ve brought a photo that captures a different vibe from your on-screen appearance. It’s a selfie taken naturally in front of a mirror before a movie stage greeting, and the leather jacket style—looking effortlessly chic—caught my eye much more than I expected.

Leather jacket styling that looks more natural in a mirror selfie ahead of the stage greeting

I could feel a slight sense of tension just from this expression alone. She layered an olive khaki-toned leather jacket over a white crinkle lace tiered dress, and the puff sleeve details added volume to the jacket's silhouette. Cinching the waist with a brown vintage buckle belt also added a classic touch to the casual leather jacket.

The subtle accessories, such as the silver watch and layered necklaces, also caught my eye. In another scene, they flashed a V-sign and made a playful expression, and in that moment, their signature relaxed vibe was actually quite charming.

Since these selfies were taken while going back and forth between the subway tile restroom and the dark wood-paneled hallway, they perfectly conveyed the unique busy yet exciting atmosphere right before a stage greeting. Whenever I see selfies like this that look like they were just snapped in front of a mirror right before an event, I actually think you can see the person's usual self better.

Kang Mina, who has carved out her own place moving between the stage and the screen

Just looking at this one look, matching a leather jacket with a lace dress, you could feel the comfortable yet sophisticated vibe. As she has been comfortable in front of the camera since her days as an idol, she posed naturally, while the calm atmosphere she has cultivated through her acting career also shone through in that single selfie.

In particular, the lace dress paired with the slightly rugged feel of the leather jacket created a strangely harmonious blend of contrasting vibes. It was also interesting to see a sense of proportion that contrasted with her round features. Having shown a new side as an actress through various works this year, I look forward to seeing what kind of characters and styles Kang Mi-na will display in the future.
