Blackpink dazzles in custom-designed Korean hanbok at Coachella show

K-pop idol singers are often touted as the representatives of Korean culture – especially fashion – with many making use of their global stardom to spotlight Korean heritage.

Taking the stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival last Saturday in southern California, as the first headlining K-pop girl group, Blackpink also used the historic moment to turn the world's attention to hanbok, Korean traditional dress.
