(G)I-DLE Minnie's 'Awkward' Runway Debut Draws Mixed Reactions For THESE Reasons

In a community thread, Minnie sparked reactions from netizens due to her runway performance and debut. The clips and photos uploaded caused mixed reactions from internet users, who criticized Minnie's makeup, walk, and the video's background song choice.

On October 1, K-netz established a forum titled, "(G)I-DLE Minnie Debuts on the Miu Miu Runway With Her Walk." The author then uploaded content showing Minnie treading the runway, but netizens focused on the idol's facial expressions and styling more.

However, some were endeared by her "nervous" look during the walk.

Read their comments below:

• "What was that?"
• "She's so powerful at concerts, but this is the first time I've seen her this nervous. She's cute, though."
• "I can now understand how important makeup is. This shows her innocent side instead of the strong one."
• "Why are her lips silver?"
• "Who did her makeup?"
• "I think she was nervous."

Minnie's runway debut also garnered reactions on a separate thread and X (formerly Twitter). 

• "No shade to Minnie at all, but seeing celebs walking the runway always makes me realize how catwalking is a skill and nobody can just model."
• "Even disregarding her awkward walk, the entire combination is just not it."
• "That makeup is straight out of 2006."
  
• "The background music makes it funny for some reason."

I'm feeling so bad for her. It was her first time and she was so nervous too. The hate is so unnecessary and why tf some nevies are talking shit abt her. Like shut up, she did a pretty good job. I'm so proud of her. Love u Minnie https://t.co/kfbeiA0wLK
