Dating scenes are practically inevitable in a Kdrama, especially if you’re watching something laced with more than a little romance. Sometimes, we get to see the ladies trying so hard to find the perfect date outfit – even going so far as shopping for new ones when the need arises.
Let’s take a peek into the common ensembles favored by Kdrama females when going on a date:
1. Oh Cho Rim (Shin Se Kyung) in the Girl Who Sees Smells
Oh Cho Rim’s idea of a date outfit is not far from her usual daily aesthetic – a cute bomber jacket, a t-shirt, a pair of jeans and a pair of sneakers. This outfit actually makes sense considering their date activities that involves tandem bicycling and chasing after crime clues.
