South Korean Olympics shooter Kim Yeji has taken over the internet with her Main Character energy and confident demeanor, not her cyberpunk "aesthetic."
In a world inundated with people who make over-the-top statements through their social interactions, the fact that people are freaking out over a woman in a Fila windbreaker is proof that performative attention-grabbing will never match the cool of someone who gives no fucks.
These people already know they’re the Main Character, yet you can’t even tell that Kim just broke the women’s world record for the 25m event by her could-care-less demeanor or qualified for the world’s most prominent and prestigious sporting event. All you notice is her focus and intensity, her stoic attitude, aided by a humble toughness and what looks like a fancy, retro-futurist eyepiece you can get as an add-on from the revamped Cyberpunk 2077, which has experienced an aesthetic-based resurgence that emphasizes fashion and function.
