The Varsity Vibe That Broke the Internet: IVE’s Iconic Look

Okay, let’s be real: when IVE showed up at the Yonsei University AOP festival, everything stopped. An Yujin and Jang Wonyoung’s visuals, combined with that classic Yonsei University varsity jacket, created a viral fashion moment that has everyone scrambling. This isn’t just school spirit; it’s a major K-Pop trend that took over every feed, making the ‘gwajam’ (Korean university jacket) the ultimate must-have item.

And guess what? You don’t need a student ID to rock this look. Here at Laughinks, we’re all about bringing those viral, trend-setting pieces right to your closet. If you’re a DIVE, a K-fashion enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates a jacket with undeniable swagger, you’re in the right place. We’ve taken that iconic, much-buzzed-about style and created a print-on-demand version just for you.

From a Fan’s POV: Why This Jacket is Everything

Narrator Persona: A Gen Z K-Pop stan and college fashion enthusiast who lives for ‘main character’ energy.

Look, I’m obsessed with this jacket, and not just because Wonyoung looked absolutely flawless in it. It’s the ultimate flex—it says ‘I know K-Pop,’ ‘I know style,’ and ‘I could totally pass as a cool university student.’ It’s the kind of piece you see on a comeback stage and immediately need in your life. This isn’t just merch; it’s an aesthetic. So, let’s talk about the real questions you’re probably asking before hitting ‘Add to Cart,’ because I asked them too.

‘Is this jacket actually comfortable enough for daily wear?’

Trust me, I get it. You want the look without feeling like you’re wearing a costume. The best part about a varsity jacket is how versatile it is. We’ve made sure this one is comfortable and breathable to wear, meaning you can actually throw it on for class, a weekend meetup, or even a late-night concert. It’s got that relaxed, cool-kid fit that layers perfectly over a hoodie when it’s chilly or just a simple tee when you’re going for that effortless, off-duty idol vibe. It’s all about maximum style with minimal effort.

‘Will the AOP (All-Over-Print) design and graphics actually last?’

This is my biggest pet peeve with trendy pieces—they fade after two washes. But the whole point of a legendary jacket like this is that it becomes part of your story, right? You need the bold Yonsei University AOP graphics and details to stay sharp, looking as iconic as the day you got it. Rest assured, the attention to detail means you’re getting sharp, lasting graphics that hold up over time. This isn’t a one-season wonder; it’s a staple piece that will be turning heads for years.

‘How do I style this without looking like I’m wearing a uniform?’

This is where the ‘main character’ energy comes in! You don’t want to look like you’re trying to get into Yonsei; you want to look like you run the place.

• ‘The Wonyoung Vibe:‘ Pair it with a mini skirt or flowy dress and platform sneakers. It balances the sporty look with a feminine, ultra-trendy edge.
• ‘Streetwear Superstar:‘ Go oversized—layer it over a cropped top, add baggy cargo pants, and your favourite chunky sneakers. Add a beanie or a baseball cap for that effortlessly cool, Gen Z aesthetic.
• ‘Campus Classic:‘ Keep it simple with straight-leg jeans, a basic t-shirt, and some clean white shoes. It’s the perfect blend of preppy and casual.

The AOP design does most of the heavy lifting, so your accessories can be minimal. The jacket is the statement.

‘Is this just a trend, or is it a timeless piece?’

The varsity jacket itself is a legend—it has roots that go back decades and cycles back into fashion every single year. The Yonsei ‘gwajam’ being worn by IVE just cemented it as the look for this generation. It’s a piece of pop culture history you can actually wear. It’s a symbol of youthful ambition, high status, and killer style. So yes, it’s a trend right now, but it’s built on a timeless silhouette. You’re making an investment in your wardrobe’s cool factor. Snag yours before they all disappear!
