The Oscars is the most prestigious annual award event, showcasing star glam. The 97th edition of the Academy Awards, held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California, on March 2, 2025, saw the debut appearance of two of the biggest Korean entertainment industry celebrities—BLACKPINK's Lisa and former SF9 member Rowoon. They made a powerful appearance on the red carpet, turning heads with their stunning outfits.

In a bold fashion move, Lisa broke away from traditional gowns, opting for a sleek Mark Gong tuxedo dress instead. The custom-made monochrome ensemble consisted of a floor-length black blazer dress layered over a white shirt dress with a thigh-high slit and black wide-leg trousers. Exuding confidence and sophistication, Lisa appeared on the red carpet in an outfit that perfectly blended power and beauty. A red false flower added a pop of color to the overall look.

To complement the outfit's elegance, Lisa kept her makeup minimal, featuring a bold black winged liner and glossy nude lips. For the hairdo, she went with her classic bangs with a voluminous high ponytail.

Rowoon, who is known for his roles in Destined With You, Tomorrow, and The King's Affection, among others, was also a part of the star-studded show. He added bling to the 2025 Academy Awards red carpet in a black blazer suit with glittery silver-striped detailing, layered over a white t-shirt. The outfit was topped up with a striking silver broach. Even though the actor wasn't one of the nominees, he brought great energy to the event.

He even participated in the iconic Glambot. Last week, he announced his invitation to the prestigious award show through his Instagram stories, which read, "See you in Oscars."


Both the stars made their distinct fashion statement at the 97th Academy Awards, with many esteemed fashion portals naming them two of the best-dressed celebs of the event. On the work front, Rowoon is set to make his comeback after two years in September this year through the Disney+ historical drama, The Murky Stream. Lisa, on the other hand, just made her acting debut with The White Lotus season 3 last month and is currently looking forward to the reactions to her debut album, Alter Ego, released on February 28.
