XG group member Cocona, who is transmasculine, made a historic appearance at the Gucci show during Milan Fashion Week on February 27, 2026. He wore a stylish two-piece pantsuit with an open blazer that proudly displayed his top surgery scars, turning the moment into a powerful statement of authenticity and visibility.

Cocona came out as transmasculine non-binary in December 2025 (on his 20th birthday), sharing that he had undergone top surgery earlier that year. This Gucci appearance marks one of his first major public solo events since coming out, and he chose not to hide or cover the scars—sending a strong message of confidence and pride.

The original post by @Auralizzie

 called it "Historic!" and quickly went viral, gaining over 6,800 likes, nearly 1,000 reposts, and more than 813,000 views within hours. It sparked widespread emotions across the fandom and beyond, with many praising Cocona for changing industry norms and increasing trans representation in K-pop/global music.

Related coverage (from outlets like Koreaboo, Soap Central, and various fashion accounts) highlighted how this look made Cocona a breakout star of the event, with reactions ranging from heartfelt support ("epitome of courage") to celebratory posts calling it a milestone for body positivity and gender identity.

While the majority of fan reactions were overwhelmingly positive and emotional, some replies included transphobic criticism—reflecting both the progress in LGBTQ+ visibility and the ongoing challenges.

This moment is being widely seen as a bold, inspiring step forward for trans and non-binary representation in the entertainment world. If you'd like more details, photos from the event, or reactions from specific sources, let me know!
