This K-Pop Star Looks Just Like Ada Wong and Her Fanbase Can’t Unsee the Resemblance
K-pop star Asa from BABYMONSTER has sparked widespread online comparisons to Ada Wong, the iconic character from Capcom’s Resident Evil franchise, following recent selfies where she styled herself with striking similarities to the fictional spy.
Asa’s fashion choice featured a short bob haircut with side bangs and an outfit reminiscent of Ada Wong’s signature aesthetic. Ada Wong has maintained a consistent and sophisticated style throughout the Resident Evil series, most notably showcased through the red bodycon dress in Resident Evil 2 and the turtleneck from Resident Evil 4. The character is instantly recognizable for her short bob with side bangs and preference for deep red colors—elements that closely mirrored Asa’s styling in the posted photos.
The resemblance was striking enough that fans found themselves unable to “unsee” the comparison once it was pointed out online, with the Korean rapper’s outfit and hairstyle triggering widespread discussion across social media. The incident highlights Ada Wong’s enduring cultural impact as one of gaming’s most stylish and iconic characters, demonstrating how memorable video game character designs can transcend the gaming medium and become recognizable references across broader pop culture and entertainment communities.
