On her Instagram posts and videos, digital content creator and fashion enthusiast Radhika Bangia often channels the styles of the South Korean singer Jennie from the girl band BLACKPINK and actress Seo Yea Ji from the drama ‘It’s Okay to Not Be Okay’. The self-confessed Korean entertainment buff is regularly seen wearing her bangs in signature K-drama style and flaunting flared or pleated skirts, cute crop tops in pastel colours and oversized checked shirts with military or chunky K-pop-inspired shoes. 

She comes up with these looks by recreating what stands out in K-dramas and K-pop music videos as per her own preferences. “I started exploring and experimenting with Korean fashion after I started listening to BLACKPINK, BTS, Hwasa, TWICE, etc. and watched K-Dramas as well,” shares Bangia, whose K-chic has helped her win about 1.6 million followers.
