The singer of "It's Been So Long Since I Cried" is facing controversy because her concert outfit is said to resemble that of South Korean singer Kim Mingyu (from the group Seventeen).

Recently, several images and clips of Quoc Thien at the Y-CONCERT held on the evening of December 20th went viral on social media. On stage, the male singer appeared in a shiny silver leather outfit, with a blazer loosely buttoned, showcasing his toned physique. He completed the outfit with sunglasses and a chain necklace studded with rhinestones. The singer of " It's Been a Long Time Since I Cried" also shared images of this performance on his personal page, which has nearly 400,000 followers.

Specifically, in his previous performance of "Shake It Off ," the Korean singer also wore a similar outfit. This immediately sparked controversy on social media. Netizens argued that Quoc Thien copied Mingyu's style, as the two shared many similarities from clothing to fashion accessories.
