Forever 21 = korean clothes?!?

Not sure if this thread would go here but I realized everytime I go shopping at forever21, most of the clothing look korean.

I finally went on Wikipedia and the creator of the store IS Korean.
I'm sure of you already know that already....

Anyone else had the feeling they were shopping at a korean store?

I don't think they are really....."Korean", it's just the general style these days. They do have more variety of clothes compare brands like aero and abercrombie.

That's interesting. I didnt know the creator of the brand was korean, but when I think about it, it makes total sense. A lot of subtle colors and sophistication that resembles the fashion in korea. No wonder I like forever21 so much.

it's just the style.
you can go to any western store and find pieces that can be made to look like any style you want.

I've been shopping there for a few years and I never noticed that before. Maybe it's because I'm not very observant.
