While this is Street Fighter’s first real KPop crossover, aespa have previously had projects with games like Tetris and PUBG.
Juri’s aespa-Inspired Outfit
The highlight of the event is Juri: Outfit 4 feat. aespa, a special costume designed in collaboration with the group. It draws design cues from aespa’s signature visuals, complete with flashy effects and color variants (Color 1–10).
