TWICE’s Chaeyoung posts selfie wearing swastika T-shirt a day after controversy over QAnon shirt

TWICE member Chaeyoung has sparked outrage for another controversial wardrobe choice, this time involving a Nazi swastika.

Just a day after receiving backlash for wearing a T-shirt associated with far-right conspiracy group QAnon, the K-pop star posted a photo on Instagram in which she could be seen wearing a T-shirt with an image of a man wearing a swastika-emblazoned shirt.

The man in the image is Sid Vicious, the bassist for famous 1970s English punk band Sex Pistols. Vicious was known to wear clothes with controversial imagery, such as pornography or Nazi symbols, to incite outrage from onlookers. The musician wore the inverted swastika on multiple occasions near the end of his life, even choosing to wear it in the film "The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle," a mockumentary about the band's rise to fame.
