On Wednesday, October 15, W Korea held the 20th edition of its annual breast cancer awareness event, Love Your W 2025. At the event, several South Korean celebrities, from K-pop idols to K-drama actors, were seen gracing the red carpet. Some of the attendees of the event include BTS' Taehyung, j-hope, and RM, aespa, ENHYPEN's Jake, Sungwoon, and Jungwon, Byeon Woo-seok, and more.While several fans and netizens were thrilled to see the celebrities gathered together at Love Your W 2025, they were soon disappointed by the event's alleged lack of tact and genuineness towards the cause, breast cancer awareness. Several netizens expressed that the event had little to no activities or parts that talked about breast cancer awareness or advocated for the same.People also noted that there was no indication of the event being a breast cancer awareness event since motifs and dress codes for gatherings on breast cancer awareness should be pink. Additionally, several others also added that the event had become a mere elite social gathering for the South Korean celebrities and stated that it felt quite superficial in its intentions.Here are a few reactions from the internet regarding the same:"It was literally just a party for rich people to end up drunk as fuck LMFAOO" said a netizenkalizur @kalizurLINKIt was literally just a party for rich people to end up drunk as f*ck LMFAOOMore netizens expressed their frustrations and disappointment with W Korea's Love Your W 2025 event.j @pyedemanzana_LINKWith all due respect to the people who participated in the event, this seems very superficial. There are better ways to approach awareness-raising in a dynamic way. Here, it seems more like a social or networking party, detracting from the seriousness and purpose of the eventlovelost271 @lovelost271LINKyou wont even know that it was for breast cancer unless u view articles nothing abt it. no one talked abt it during interviews its like the guests didnt know.s @seallazLINKthis event was so shameless, every celebrities who attended + w korea should be held accountable, this is not only disrespectful to victims of breast cancer but it's just so tone deaf!xima @afairytaelLINKapparently they only managed to gather 1 billion wons in YEARS. they just wear their fancy clothes, pose for the cameras and drink champagne and make it seem like it's another fashion event, but it's actually for BREAST CANCER AWARENESS!! truly disappointing...Others also shared their thoughts and opinions about the same.Aiah @targaryenkmLINKThe least they couldve done was wear pink which was the color symbol for this charity🍧 @chatshireloreLINKworse it’s the brands that are “donating” as part of advertising just so their ambassadors can appear to these events wearing their clothes and accessories…the hundreds of celebs invited only need to show face and boom, instant feminists!memo_jh 13 @mariyamsayed5LINKThis is not even the worst, worst is people worship these celebs and make such tonedeaf people famousvalerie 🥒 @sseraangelicLINKjust scrolled through w koreas socials, there were 54 videos posted and only ONE of them was a speech?? 😭😭Who attended W Korea's Love Your W 2025 breast cancer awareness event?
