K-Pop Fashion Inspiration: BTS’ “Blood Sweat & Tears” Music Video
K-pop (or Korean pop) is a genre that continues to grow in popularity even outside of its native South Korea. But K-pop has more to offer than just its catchy tunes.
In terms of fashion, K-pop artists bring us unique, daring, and interesting looks that offer amazing inspiration. We’ve covered K-pop fashion on CF before, and now we’re adding to that series – after all, there’s so much more in the genre that’s worth covering!
I recently watched the “Blood Sweat & Tears” music video by BTS, a seven-member South Korean boy band, and it gave me some fun fashion ideas. Below, I’ve created three looks inspired by their style.

Outfit 1: V’s Striped Pajamas
Products: Blazer – ASOS, Jumpsuit – Nordstrom, Shoes – Charlotte Russe, Earrings – Forever 21
This look is a feminine twist on the outfit that V wears in the music video. Switch out the robe for a striped blazer, and instead of burgundy pants, try a jumpsuit for a cute and sophisticated look.
Because V doesn’t wear any shoes with that outfit, I kept it minimal with nude sandals. Due to the heavy religious imagery in the music video, I added the cross earrings for a finishing touch. If those aren’t in line with your beliefs, sub them for any dangly, jeweled earring.
Outfit 2: J-Hope and Velvet
If you are going for style AND comfort, J-Hope’s look is the perfect choice for inspiration. Not only are bomber jackets super in right now, they are so comfortable. Taking the trend even further, nothing could be better than a soft velvet bomber jacket.
Products: Bomber jacket – Forever 21, Top – H&M, Jeans – H&M, Shoes – Zappos, Rings – Forever 21
Style this look with a simple tank top, solid-colored jeans, and some sneakers for a cool vibe. Bring the look to life with some accessories such as these rings (the arrow accent ties in with the music video!)
